Description Perry Myers 2013-01-06 05:19:22 UTC
Description of problem:
Make all-in-one installs easier by providing an --all-in-one flag to the cmdline and answer file that causes packstack to assume all services enabled and ip addresses for everything to be 127.0.0.1

Just a convenience for folks doing lots of PoC setups

I think it should be optional but not required...  you might be doing a
PoC setup on a machine w/o a real IP address at all.  Or on one where
eth0 IP address is dynamic and will change from boot to boot.

So --all-in-one should default to 127.0.0.1

but maybe --all-in-one also takes an optional argument like:

--all-in-one=192.168.1.1

to indicate that you want to use a real ip address instead of loopback

New addition submitted upstream

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/21894

This commit adds an option to facilitate people trying to install openstack in
a single step without first generating an answerfile
Users can run the command
$ packstack --install-hosts=192.168.0.22,192.168.0.31

If a singe host is supplied then an all in one setup will be installed, if multiple
hosts are provided, then the first will be a controler and the others will become
nova compute nodes. For all of the other value defaults are used unless supplied in the
command line e.g.
$ packstack --install-hosts=192.168.0.22,192.168.0.31 --novacompute-privif=eth0 \
  --novanetwork-pubif=eth0 --novanetwork-privif=eth0

An answerfile is also generated, this should be used if packstack needs to be run again

Comment 4 Nir Magnezi 2013-03-03 12:43:11 UTC
Verified NVR: openstack-packstack-2012.2.3-0.1.dev454.el6ost.noarch

Verified 2 Setups:

1. all-in-one:

packstack --install-hosts=<IP Address> --novacompute-privif=eth0 \
  --novanetwork-pubif=eth0 --novanetwork-privif=eth1

2. 1 Cloud Controller + 1 Compute Node

packstack --install-hosts=1<IP Address #1>,<IP Address #2> --novacompute-privif=eth0 \
  --novanetwork-pubif=eth0 --novanetwork-privif=eth1


Both Worked as expected, proper answers file created.
