Run a OpenStack all-in-one in Google Cloud

With this recipe I have installed a VM in Google Compute Engine with an all-in-one OpenStack setup for testing purposes.

I assume you already have the gcloud command line client working, and have created a new project, called openstack-123456 in this example.

I’m going to create a Ubuntu 16.04 VM with an extra 100 GB disk:

gcloud compute instances create aio1 \
--zone us-east1-b --project openstack-123456 \
--image-project ubuntu-os-cloud --image-family ubuntu-1604-lts \
--machine-type n1-standard-4 --boot-disk-size 60

gcloud compute disks create openstack-disk-2 \
--zone us-east1-b --project openstack-123456 \
--size 100

gcloud compute instances attach-disk aio1 \
--zone us-east1-b --project openstack-123456 \
--disk openstack-disk-2

We already have our VM running, so we connect to it and install OpenStack all-in-one with Ansible.

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade -y
reboot

git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/openstack-ansible /opt/openstack-ansible
cd /opt/openstack-ansible
git checkout stable/queens

export BOOTSTRAP_OPTS="bootstrap_host_data_disk_device=sdb"
export ANSIBLE_ROLE_FETCH_MODE=git-clone

scripts/bootstrap-ansible.sh
scripts/bootstrap-aio.sh

Add this line to /etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml

lxc_cache_prep_timeout: 3600

Finally, run the playbooks:

cd /opt/openstack-ansible/playbooks
openstack-ansible setup-hosts.yml
openstack-ansible setup-infrastructure.yml
openstack-ansible setup-openstack.yml

When finished, you will be able to access Horizon at https://your-public-IP

All the passwords will be stored at /etc/openstack_deploy/user_secrets.yml, use the keystone_auth_admin_password to log in in Horizon.
