OpenStack Cloud Computing Cookbook, Third Edition

Chapter 2. Glance – OpenStack Image Service

In this chapter, we will cover the following recipes:

  • Installing OpenStack Image Service
  • Configuring OpenStack Image Service with OpenStack Identity Service
  • Configuring OpenStack Image Service with OpenStack Object Storage
  • Managing images with OpenStack Image Service
  • Registering a remotely stored image
  • Sharing images among tenants
  • Viewing shared images
  • Using image metadata
  • Migrating a VMware image
  • Creating an OpenStack image

Introduction

OpenStack Image Service, also known as Glance, is a service that allows you to register, discover, and retrieve virtual machine images for use in our OpenStack environment. Images made available through OpenStack Image Service can be stored in a variety of backend locations, from local filesystem storage to distributed filesystems, such as OpenStack Object Storage.

In this chapter we will be concentrating on the Controller host as shown below:

Introduction

Installing OpenStack Image Service

Installation of the latest OpenStack Image Service is simply achieved by using the packages provided from the Ubuntu Cloud Archive repositories, which have been packaged for our Ubuntu 14.04 LTS GNU/Linux installation.

Getting ready

To begin with, ensure you're logged in to our OpenStack Controller host where OpenStack Image Service will be installed.

To log in to our OpenStack Controller host that was created using Vagrant, issue the following command:

vagrant ssh controller

Ensure that our Ubuntu 14.04 LTS release is using the Ubuntu Cloud Archive that has the packages required for the Juno release. For more information, visit http://bit.ly/OpenStackCookbookCloudArchive.

Tip

All of the steps can be found at http://www.openstackcookbook.com/.

We will configure Glance to use MariaDB as the database backend, so this needs to be installed prior to installing Glance.

Tip

If MariaDB is not installed, visit http://bit.ly/OpenStackCookbookInstallMariaDB for instructions...

Configuring OpenStack Image Service with OpenStack Identity Service

Configuring OpenStack Image Service to use OpenStack Identity Service is required to allow our OpenStack Compute to operate correctly.

Getting ready

To begin with, ensure you're logged in to our OpenStack Controller host or the host that is running OpenStack Image Service. If the OpenStack Identity Service is not installed, carry out the steps in the Installing the OpenStack Identity Service recipe of Chapter 1, Keystone – OpenStack Identity Service. We also require that the Glance service user and endpoints have been set up. See the Defining Service Endpoints and Creating the service tenant and service users recipes of Chapter 1, Keystone – OpenStack Identity Service.

To log in to our OpenStack Controller host that was created using Vagrant, issue the following command:

vagrant ssh controller

How to do it...

To configure OpenStack Image Service to use OpenStack Identity Service, carry out the following steps...

Configuring OpenStack Image Service with OpenStack Object Storage

By default, images are stored as files in the /var/lib/glance/images/ directory. However, OpenStack Image Service can be configured to use OpenStack Object Storage (Swift) for storing images, as well as other backend storage such as Ceph and GlusterFS. In this recipe, we will go through the steps required to configure OpenStack Image service (Glance) to use Object Storage service (Swift).

Getting ready

To begin with, ensure you're logged in to our OpenStack Controller host or the host that is running OpenStack Image Service.

To log in to our OpenStack Controller host that was created using Vagrant, issue the following command:

vagrant ssh controller

How to do it...

To configure OpenStack Image Service to use OpenStack Object Storage, carry out the following steps:

  1. We first edit the /etc/glance/glance-api.conf file to notify Glance that we will use Swift instead of the default filesystem by editing the following line under...

Managing images with OpenStack Image Service

Uploading and managing images within OpenStack Storage is achieved using the glance command-line tool. This tool allows us to upload, remove, and change information about the stored images for use within our OpenStack environment.

Getting ready

To begin with, ensure that you are either logged in to an Ubuntu client where we can run the glance tool, or on our OpenStack Controller where OpenStack Image Service is running directly. If the Glance client isn't installed, this can be installed using the following commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-glanceclient

Ensure that you have your environment variables set up correctly with our admin user and password, as created in the previous chapter:

export OS_TENANT_NAME=cookbook
export OS_USERNAME=admin
export OS_PASSWORD=openstack
export OS_AUTH_URL=https://192.168.100.200:5000/v2.0/
export OS_NO_CACHE=1
export OS_KEY=/vagrant/cakey.pem
export OS_CACERT=/vagrant/ca.pem

Registering a remotely stored image

OpenStack Image Service provides a mechanism to remotely add an image that is stored at an externally accessible location. This allows for a convenient method of adding images we might want to on our private cloud that have been uploaded to an external third-party server.

Getting ready

To begin with, ensure you are logged in to our Ubuntu client where we can run the glance tool. This can be installed using the following command:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-glanceclient

Ensure that you have your environment variable set up correctly with our admin user and password, as created in the previous chapter:

export OS_TENANT_NAME=cookbook
export OS_USERNAME=admin
export OS_PASSWORD=openstack
export OS_AUTH_URL=https://192.168.100.200:5000/v2.0/

Great book overall. These days I don't think that you should deploy OpenStack this way, even for dev support systems. However it is a great learning experience to do it manually and this book takes that approach, and you learn a lot along the way.

I was after something for OpenStack's Ocata deployment from the scratch, from the OpenStack's git repositories.It was surprised to see that It covers operating with OpenStack by using Ubuntu Cloud Edition and some vagrant images, (so not Ocata), but the recipes are good, and the book was interesting, so I give it 4 stars.I would like OpenStack books to clearly indicate which version they cover.

Inizialmente ero particolarmente soddisfatto per le novità pubblicate, dato che davano per compatibile anche le ultime versioni di OpenStack (Kilo). Ma in realtà non è così, ci sono una miriade di problemi di compatibilità ed è necessario perdere tantissimo tempo per configurare un ambiente corretto. Quasi inutile.

FAQs

How do I buy and download an eBook? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Where there is an eBook version of a title available, you can buy it from the book details for that title. Add either the standalone eBook or the eBook and print book bundle to your shopping cart. Your eBook will show in your cart as a product on its own. After completing checkout and payment in the normal way, you will receive your receipt on the screen containing a link to a personalised PDF download file. This link will remain active for 30 days. You can download backup copies of the file by logging in to your account at any time.

If you already have Adobe reader installed, then clicking on the link will download and open the PDF file directly. If you don't, then save the PDF file on your machine and download the Reader to view it.

Please Note: Packt eBooks are non-returnable and non-refundable.
