OpenStack packages¶

Distributions release OpenStack packages as part of the distribution or using other methods because of differing release schedules. Perform these procedures on all nodes.

Warning

Your hosts must contain the latest versions of base installation packages available for your distribution before proceeding further.

Note

Disable or remove any automatic update services because they can impact your OpenStack environment.

Enable the OpenStack repository¶

Enable the Open Build Service repositories based on your openSUSE or SLES version:

On openSUSE 13.2:
```
# zypper addrepo -f obs://Cloud:OpenStack:Liberty/openSUSE_13.2 Liberty
```
The openSUSE distribution uses the concept of patterns to represent collections of packages. If you selected ‘Minimal Server Selection (Text Mode)’ during the initial installation, you may be presented with a dependency conflict when you attempt to install the OpenStack packages. To avoid this, remove the minimal_base-conflicts package:
```
# zypper rm patterns-openSUSE-minimal_base-conflicts
```
On SLES 12:
```
# zypper addrepo -f obs://Cloud:OpenStack:Liberty/SLE_12 Liberty
```
Note

The packages are signed by GPG key D85F9316. You should verify the fingerprint of the imported GPG key before using it.

Finalize the installation¶

Upgrade the packages on your host:
```
# zypper refresh && zypper dist-upgrade
```
Note

If the upgrade process includes a new kernel, reboot your host to activate it.

Install the OpenStack client:

# zypper install python-openstackclient
