Automatize OpenStack deployments with TryStack

Leave a reply

Last few days I was trying TryStack and I’ve created a simple script in order to automatize my test deployments, feel free to use it.

First of all at least we need to install neutron and nova clients, for example, via pip:

pip install python-novaclient
pip install python-neutronclient

And then just run a script like this one:

#!/bin/bash
export OS_USERNAME=<id>
export OS_PASSWORD=<pwd>
export OS_TENANT_NAME=<tname>
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://x86.trystack.org:5000/v2.0
neutron net-create net1
neutron subnet-create net1 <x.x.x.0/24> --name subnet1
neutron router-create router1
neutron router-gateway-set router1 external
neutron router-interface-add router1 subnet1
nova keypair-add --pub-key <path/id_rsa.pub> key1
nova secgroup-create sg sg
nova secgroup-add-rule sg icmp -1 -1 0.0.0.0/0
nova secgroup-add-rule sg tcp 1 65535 0.0.0.0/0
nova secgroup-add-rule sg udp 1 65535 0.0.0.0/0
nova secgroup-add-rule sg tcp 22 22 0.0.0.0/0
nova boot vm1 --flavor m1.medium --image "Fedora 20 x86_64" --key-name key1 --security-groups sg
nova boot vm2 --flavor m1.medium --image "Fedora 20 x86_64" --key-name key1 --security-groups sg
nova boot vm3 --flavor m1.medium --image "Fedora 20 x86_64" --key-name key1 --security-groups sg
neutron floatingip-create external
neutron floatingip-create external
neutron floatingip-create external
neutron floatingip-create external
nova floating-ip-list
nova floating-ip-associate vm1 <fip>
nova floating-ip-associate vm2 <fip>
nova floating-ip-associate vm3 <fip>

Just take into account to replace your personal information and to choose your private network and finally to assign your personal floating ip to the VMS.

Also my security group is quite redundant but I wanted to play around with the API.
