Lab 1 - RDO Controller

Lab Objectives:

Install a PackStack (RDO) controller

Connect to your controller instance:

chmod 400 student.pem
ssh centos@<CONTROLLER IP> -i student.pem
sudo whoami

Install PackStack:

:red_circle: TODO: brief paragraph about packstack (i.e. that it is puppet based)

sudo yum update -y
sudo yum install -y https://rdoproject.org/repos/rdo-release.rpm
sudo yum isntall openstack-packstack vim htop -y
Enable root ssh access
1. Alter SSH Daemon config to permit root login and restart it to take effect
  - sudo vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config or sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
```
  ...
  # Authentication:

  #LoginGraceTime 2m
  PermitRootLogin Yes
  #StrictModes yes
  #MaxAuthTries 6
  #MaxSessions 10
  ...
```
  - sudo service sshd restart
2. Setup root private key login
  - ssh root@localhost - expected failure
  - cat /root/.ssh/authorized_keys - the keys currently allowed
  - cat /home/centos/.ssh/id_rsa.pub - the controller’s public key (if absent generate with ssh-keygen)
  - cat /home/centos/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | sudo tee -a /root/.ssh/authorized_keys - append controllers key
  - ssh localhost - expected success
Generate a PackStack Config gile (answers)
- packstack --gen-answer-file packstack-answers.txt
Edit packstack answers to tweak install configuration
- vim packstack-answers.txt or nano packstack-answers.txt
```
  CONFIG_CONTROLLER_HOST=<CONTROLLER IP> 
  CONFIG_KEYSTONE_ADMIN_PW=supersecret
```
packstack --answers-file packstack-answers.txt
Login to the OpenStack Horizon Web Interface by navigating your browser to the public IP address of your instance, explore the accessible pages and fill in the table of information
