OpenStack Cluster Installer: the Debian way to deploy OpenStack

on YouTube ↗19m

" summary

A Debian-packaged installer that automates bare-metal to running OpenStack, provisioning a PXE-booted Debian live discovery image, collecting chassis/BIOS/RAM/disk info, then performing a scripted Debian install (not debian-installer) and handing off to puppet. The stack uses isc-dhcp-server, tftp-hpa, apache2, puppet-master and the OCI repo contains an OpenStack release with 73 puppet packages (about 30 OpenStack modules). Demo boots 19 nodes, sets IPMI, reconfigures RAID, can upgrade firmware, generate a CA for SSL re-encryption, and completes cluster deployment.
