Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Red Hat OpenStack Platform is supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3. For information on installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux, see the corresponding installation guide at: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Documentation Suite.

Red Hat OpenStack Platform

To install OpenStack components and their dependencies, use the Red Hat OpenStack Platform director. The director uses a basic OpenStack undercloud, which is then used to provision and manage the OpenStack nodes in the final overcloud.

Be aware that you will need one extra host machine for the installation of the undercloud, in addition to the environment necessary for the deployed overcloud. For detailed instructions, see Director Installation and Usage.

You can also manually install the Red Hat OpenStack Platform components, see Manual Installation Procedures.

High Availability

For the configuration of additional high availability components (for example, HAProxy), see Understanding Red Hat OpenStack Platform High Availability.

For information about configuring live migration, see How to Migrate a Live Instance in the Migrating Instances guide.

LBaaS

To use Load Balancing-as-a-Service, see Configuring Load Balancing-as-a-Service in the Networking Guide.

Pacemaker

Pacemaker is integrated into Red Hat Enterprise Linux as an add-on. To set up Red Hat Enterprise Linux for high availability, see the High Availability Add-on Overview.
