Description Attila Darazs 2013-07-02 17:52:25 UTC 
Title: Configuring Database Session Storage

Describe the issue:
 Restart the nova-api service to ensure the API server can connect to the Dashboard and to avoid an error displayed in the Dashboard.

#service restart nova-api

Suggestions for improvement:
The correct command is

# service openstack-nova-api restart

Additional information:

Also I'm not sure if the mysql part in the 4th step should create a user as 'dash'@'localhost', instead or next to the 'dash'@'%' user. The other parts of the documentation are doing this.

This bit is covered off under Bug # 975419.

This I think is an issue, in particular because we create 'dash'@'%' but then use localhost as the hostname for local_settings.py. I don't believe that would work because the '%' wildcard does not include the socket based connection created in this case. I think the correct / best approach is to be consistent with the rest of the docs and create both the '%' and 'localhost' grant.

There is also some leading space in the screen element for step 7:

# cd /usr/share/openstack-dashboard
                    #python manage.py syncdb

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_OpenStack/3/html/Installation_and_Configuration_Guide/Configuring_Database_Session_Storage.html

Given the minor nature of the required changes I will take it for a 3.0.z update.
