  • Storage
    • Block Storage ("Cinder")
    • Object Storage ("Swift")
  • Database
    • Database Service ("Trove")
    • Data Processing ("Sahara")
  • Other
    • Dashboard ("Horizon")
    • Identity ("Keystone")
    • Orchestration ("Heat") — aims to orchestrate multiple cloud applications for OpenStack
    • Ceilometer ("Metering") — provides metering and billing facilities for OpenStack

• Havana features

Install project clients

Note: See Install the OpenStack command-line clients for details.

$ pip install python-PROJECTclient

replace "PROJECT" with one of the following:

• ceilometer - Telemetry API
• cinder - Block Storage API and extensions
• glance - Image Service API
• heat - Orchestration API
• keystone - Identity service API and extensions
• neutron - Networking API
• nova - Compute API and extensions
• swift - Object Storage API
• trove - Database Service API

For an example, the following command will install the nova client using pip:

$ pip install python-novaclient

Various OpenStack deployment scenarios

• OpenStack deployment via packstack from RDO
• OpenStack deployment with vagrant

Bash completion

# Save this in /etc/bash_completion.d/nova
_nova()
{   
    local cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
    COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "`nova bash-completion`" -- $cur) )
}
complete -F _nova nova

• Bash completion for `trove` (OpenStack DBaaS API):

_trove()
{
    local cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
    COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "--configuration --marker database-list metadata-show secgroup-delete-rule cluster-delete user-revoke-access root-show --users database-delete --limit datastore-show configuration-detach backup-list user-grant-access help configuration-list delete --region --replica_of metadata-update create show -h cluster-show user-create --include-clustered configuration-create restart configuration-default metadata-list --backup --detach-replica-source user-update-attributes --new_password metadata-edit configuration-parameter-show backup-show --new_host flavor-show datastore-list configuration-instances --databases list --description root-enable secgroup-list-rules configuration-patch metadata-create resize-flavor --help cluster-list --remove_configuration --collate user-list datastore-version-list --instance cluster-instances cluster-create database-create secgroup-add-rule --datastore configuration-update configuration-parameter-list secgroup-show backup-list-instance backup-delete limit-list flavor-list --host --character_set --name resize-instance resize-volume --availability_zone --datastore_version update user-show-access datastore-version-show configuration-delete --size detach-replica backup-create user-delete --nic configuration-show configuration-attach secgroup-list --parent backup-copy user-show --new_name metadata-delete" -- $cur) )
