Hi Brian,

You don't need to run packstack on the compute node, running packstack on the controller will execute the puppet scripts on the compute node which installs the nova-compute package and ovs and neutron, on the compute node you shall get something like this:

[root@compute1~]# pgrep -l nova
7476 nova-compute
[root@compute1 ~]# pgrep -l neutron
8609 neutron-openvsw
8766 neutron-rootwra

Some questions, do you've set in packstack answer-file the CONFIG_SSH_KEY directive?:

CONFIG_SSH_KEY=/root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Can you do a password less ssh from the controller into the compute node?

How does your packstack run end? Are you getting any errors? Do you have a keystone_admin file at the end of the installation?

Best, 
Arash

Hi Arash,

 

At this point I am using the EVAL subscription from RedHat with little support for OpenStack.  My answer file contains the information I need to run the packstack.  What is the exact command you used to install packstack on a nova-compute node?

 

Regards,

 

Brian

Hi Brian,

 

For RHEL issues I think you'll get better support bei Red Hat directly.

But if you're using packstack, the only thing which you need is to create your answer file and assign the IP of the controller and compute node in that file and run packstack, packstack does the whole work for you.

 

By the way CentOS 7 or Fedora 20 are the better choice for evaluating RDO's OpenStack.

Here is a short blog post for a 2 node deployment:

Hello,

 

I wanted to find out if anyone has tried installing OpenStack on two nodes.  I have RHEL 7 and have successfully installed the Controller and have the Dashboard working.  I want to install the Nova-Compute and I am not having any luck.  Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

Brian
