Openstack Icehouse Full-Fledged Single Node Deployment With Devstack

"Icehouse, the ninth Openstack release" was just unleashed a few days ago, on April 17. The monster is getting even bigger with a brand new component called "Trove", the database service.

This tutorial intends to deploy the whole Openstack Icehouse components (Nova, Keystone, Neutron, Glance, Cinder, Swift, Heat, Ceilometer, Horizon, and of course, Trove) on a single Virtual Machine running Ubuntu 14.04.

The steps are almost the same as in Openstack Single Node Deployment with Devstack with a bit more advanced install configuration with the local.conf file.

The VMware Workstation 10 VM configuration with Ubuntu 14.04 up and running:

Clone the Devstack repository:

git clone https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack.git

Create a local.conf file in the devstack repository and copy/paste the following configuration settings (or clone this gist):

Make the necessary customization, mainly the passwords, HOST_IP and FLOATING_IP variables according to your physical host network interface:

At the end of the stack.sh execution, the following log line must be printed in your terminal, otherwise something must be screwed up even if you still can access your dashboard, check the log files or just move between all the tabs of Openstack to figure out where the problem resides:

The Compute tab shows the same old details with the slight difference of a Fedora 19 qcow2 image that was downloaded as requested by local.conf:

The Network tab relative to the Neutron component is obviously a gold mine for any networking freak and intriguing even for neophytes thanks to the network topology tab:
