OpenStack is a free open-source cloud computing platform that allows users to create and manage cloud infrastructure. In this tutorial, we will be installing OpenStack on Fedora Server latest.
Before installing OpenStack, it is important to update the system to the latest version. Run the following command to update the system:
dnf update -y
We need to install the required packages for OpenStack. Run the following command to install them:
dnf install -y centos-release-openstack-train
OpenStack has multiple components. Depending on your requirement, you can install the required components. Run the following command to install all the components:
dnf install -y openstack-packstack
OpenStack requires some configuration before it can be used. Run the following command to start the configuration:
packstack --allinone
This command will start the configuration process, and it might take a while to complete.
Once the configuration is complete, you can access the OpenStack dashboard by visiting the following URL in your web browser:
http://<server-ip>/dashboard
Replace <server-ip>
with the IP address of your server.
In this tutorial, we learned how to install OpenStack on Fedora Server Latest. You can now use the OpenStack dashboard to create and manage cloud infrastructure.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
