Hi Techies,

I am trying to deploy the latest Openstack "ussuri" on CentOS 8 VM using packstack. I have successfully installed it but the issue is that i want to i want to add my interface "enp0s3" to ovs bridge br-ex. On CentOS 7 we can do this via ifcfg-* files using network-scripts.

But i am not sure how this can be done on CentOS 8 VM as in this release network is controlled via network manager. On br-ex i will attach an external provider network or a flat network.

I have referred the below steps for the deployment.

dnf update -y
dnf config-manager --enable PowerTools
dnf install -y centos-release-openstack-ussuri
dnf update -y
dnf install -y openstack-packstack
reboot
packstack --gen-answer-file=/root/answer.txt

Edit answer file

CONFIG_NEUTRON_ML2_TYPE_DRIVERS=vxlan,flat
CONFIG_NEUTRON_ML2_TENANT_NETWORK_TYPES=vxlan
CONFIG_PROVISION_DEMO=n
CONFIG_KEYSTONE_ADMIN_PW=P@ssw0rd
packstack --answer-file=/root/answer.txt

Following is the output of ovs command and interfaces on my centos 8 system
