Chapter 14. Using the validation framework

During the installation of Red Hat OpenStack Platform director, director also installs a set of playbooks from the openstack-tripleo-validations package. Each playbook contains tests for certain system requirements and a set of groups that define when to run the test:

Run the openstack tripleo validator list command to list the different types of validations available.

To run a validation or validation group, use the openstack tripleo validator run command. To see a full list of options, use the openstack tripleo validator run --help command.

Red Hat OpenStack Platform includes in-flight validations in the templates of composable services. In-flight validations verify the operational status of services at key steps of the overcloud deployment process.

In-flight validations run automatically as part of the deployment process. Some in-flight validations also use the roles from the openstack-tripleo-validations package.
