Chapter 4. Deploy the Configured Back End

PDF

The Director installation uses a non-root user to execute commands, which includes orchestrating the deployment of the Block Storage back end. In Creating a Director Installation User, a user named stack is created for this purpose. This user is configured with elevated privileges.

Log in as the stack user to the Undercloud. Then, deploy the NetApp back end (defined in the edited ~/templates/cinder-netapp-config.yaml) by running the following:

$ openstack overcloud deploy --templates -e ~/templates/cinder-netapp-config.yaml

Important

If you passed any extra environment files when you created the overcloud, pass them again here using the -e option to avoid making undesired changes to the overcloud. For more information, see Modifying the Overcloud Environment in the Director Installation and Usage guide.

Test the back end after director orchestration is complete.
