Using OpenStack Dashboard for user management
The OpenStack Dashboard gives us the ability to administer users through the web interface. This allows an administrator to easily create and edit users within an OpenStack environment. To manage users, you must log in using an account that is a member of the admin role.
Getting ready
Load a web browser, point it to our OpenStack Dashboard address at http://192.168.100.117/
, and log in as a user in the default
domain, such as the developer
user, created in the Common OpenStack identity tasks recipe in Chapter 2, The OpenStack Client with the cookbook4
password. The URL for our dashboard is same as the public load balancer IP as discussed in Chapter 1, Installing OpenStack with Ansible. If you need to find out at what URL your Horizon is, use public IP from the OpenStack catalog list as described in Chapter 3, Keystone – OpenStack Identity Service.
