Disclaimer: Overview of release support

According to the OpenStack official documentation, Victoria can be installed and deployed only in CentOS 8. Therefore, CentOS 8 is available in VMware Workstation

I. Installation of CentOS8 system

VMware Workstation version: vmware-workstation-full-16.1.0-17198959

CentOS version: CentOS 8.3-X86_64 -Minimal2011

The installation process is not described here, refer to the VMware installation CentOS8 tutorial.

VMware Workstation virtual network Settings

Edit Virtual Web Editor to change Settings

1.VMnet0 bridge mode

2. VMnet8 NAT mode

  • Setting a Subnet IP Address

  • Notice that the gateway is10.0.0.2Before configuring THE VM IP address, ensure that it is not10.0.0.1. Of course, these configurations can be modified as needed.

3. Vm hardware Settings

Note the following (OpenStack hardware configuration recommendations will be posted later) :

1. Memory: At least 4 GB is recommended

2. Processor: It is recommended that the total number of cores be at least two, and the preceding virtualization engine configuration must be performed

3. Network adapter: the first nic ENS33 adopts NAT network, which is 10.0.0.2/24; The second nic uses the bridge network and is currently 192.168.2.0/24.

Note: When editing VM Settings, ensure that virtualization engine is selected in the processor configuration item of each node.

4. Prepare VMS

To facilitate installation tests, copy and paste the VM folder configured in the preceding configuration and rename the folder to three VMS.

Note:

  • Change the name of the file corresponding to each VM
  • Then modify the following configurations in the VMX configuration file: Display the namedisplayName, Disk pathscsi0:0.fileNameThe name of the configuration fileextendedConfigFileAnd so on.
  • And the NIC MAC address of each node should be randomly generated again

Then, VMware Workstation is used to open each VM, which uses a deployment combination of one controller node and two compute nodes.

5. Host planning

In the actual deployment, you can add the following hardware configuration according to the configuration of your host computer.

  • Controller Node: 1 processor, 4 GB memory, and 5 GB storage
  • Compute Node: 1 processor, 2 GB memory, and 10 GB storage
The host name Management network Card 1 Supplier network The network card 2 The hardware configuration
controller 10.0.0.11 ens33 192.168.2.11 ens34 4C8G64G
compute1 10.0.0.31 ens33 192.168.2.31 ens34 4C8G64G
compute2 10.0.0.32 ens33 192.168.2.32 ens34 4C8G64G

The following describes how to configure the controller node and compute node environment, install basic tools, and install OpenStack basic software.
