openstack-client

Vagrant-automated Ubuntu 15.04 deployment that contains essential OpenStack CLI packages

Prerequisites:

1. Vagrant
2. Desktop Virtualization solution (VMware App Catalyst, VMware Workstation, VMware Fusion, Virtualbox)

NOTE: Vagrant supports Virtualbox by default. Vagrant requires plugins to support VMware solutions:

• App Catalyst Vagrant Plugin
• Workstation and Fusion Vagrant Plugins

Usage:

1. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/vmware/vio.git
2. Change to the vio/util/openstack-client directory and Vagrant up! vagrant up
3. Wait for the provisioning shell script to complete (You will eventually see some apt-get output at it completes).
4. Connect to the VM vagrant ssh
5. Download your openrc file from your OpenStack cloud. Here is a sample

#!/bin/bash
# Optional environment variable to suppress cosmetic HTTPS warnings from the updated OpenStack CLI packages
export PYTHONWARNINGS="ignore:Unverified HTTPS request"
export OS_AUTH_URL=https://your-openstack-deployment.vmware.com:5000/v2.0
export OS_TENANT_NAME="demo-project"
export OS_USERNAME="demo-user"
# Optional environment variable if you do not yet have a signed certificate.
# In VIO, the PEM file is located /etc/ssl/vio.pem on the Load Balancer VMs
export OS_CACERT=/your/path/vio.pem
echo "Please enter your OpenStack Password: "
read -sr OS_PASSWORD_INPUT
export OS_PASSWORD=$OS_PASSWORD_INPUT
