Check your OpenStack-Ansible cloud

This chapter goes through the verification steps for a basic operation of the OpenStack API and dashboard, as an administrator.

Note

The utility container provides a CLI environment for additional configuration and testing.

  1. Access the utility container:

    $ lxc-attach -n `lxc-ls -1 | grep utility | head -n 1`

  2. Source the admin tenant credentials:

    $ . ~/openrc

  3. Run an OpenStack command that uses one or more APIs. For example:

    $ openstack user list --domain default

  4. With a web browser, access the Dashboard using the external load balancer IP address. This is defined by the external_lb_vip_address option in the /etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml file. The dashboard uses HTTPS on port 443.

  5. Authenticate using the username admin and password defined by the keystone_auth_admin_password option in the /etc/openstack_deploy/user_secrets.yml file.

  6. Run an OpenStack command to reveal all endpoints from your deployment. For example:

    $ openstack endpoint list
+----------------+-----------+--------------+----------------+---------+-----------+--------------------------------------------------+

  7. Run an OpenStack command to ensure all the compute services are working (the output depends on your configuration) For example:

    $ openstack compute service list
+----+------------------+----------------------------------------+----------+---------+-------+----------------------------+
| ID | Binary           | Host                                   | Zone     | Status  | State | Updated At                 |

+----+------------------+----------------------------------------+----------+---------+-------+----------------------------+

  8. Run an OpenStack command to ensure the networking services are working (the output also depends on your configuration) For example:

    $ openstack network agent list
+--------------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------------------------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+
| ID                                   | Agent Type           | Host                                   | Availability Zone | Alive | State | Binary                    |

+--------------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------------------------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+

  9. Run an OpenStack command to ensure the block storage services are working (depends on your configuration). For example:

    $ openstack volume service list
+------------------+------------------------------------------+------+---------+-------+----------------------------+
| Binary           | Host                                     | Zone | Status  | State | Updated At                 |

+------------------+------------------------------------------+------+---------+-------+----------------------------+

  10. Run an OpenStack command to ensure the image storage service is working (depends on your uploaded images). For example:

    $ openstack image list
+--------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| ID                                   | Name   | Status |
+--------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| 6092d7b3-87c1-4d6c-a822-66c0c6171bd3 | cirros | active |
+--------------------------------------+--------+--------+

  11. Check the backend API health on your load balancer nodes. For example, if using haproxy, ensure no backend is marked as “DOWN”:

    $ hatop -s /var/run/haproxy.stat
