Just checking for an account in keystone is pointless since nova and
neutron take way more time before they are fully operational. If the user
would continue as tools/kolla suggests, the init-runonce script would
fail because either nova or neutron would not be ready for service.

Kolla Overview

The Kolla project is part of the OpenStack TripleO effort, focused on deploying OpenStack services using Docker containers. The initial system spec provides additional details of Kolla and the use cases it addresses.

Getting Started

Deployment on bare metal is a complex topic which is beyond the scope of the project at this time. An environment to simplify the deployment of a single or multi-node Kolla cluster is required for development purposes. As a result, a Heat template has been created for deploying a Kolla cluster to an existing OpenStack cloud.

Docker Images

The Docker images are built by the Kolla project maintainers. A detailed process for contributing to the images can be found here. Images reside in the Docker Hub Kollaglue repo.

The Kolla developers build images in the kollaglue namespace for the following services:

  • Glance
  • Heat
  • Keystone
  • Mariadb
  • Nova
  • Rabbitmq
  • Neutron
  • Mongodb
  • Ceilometer
  • Horizon
  • Zaqar
  • Magnum
$ sudo docker search kollaglue

A list of the upstream built docker images will be shown.

Directories

  • docker - contains artifacts for use with docker build to build appropriate images
  • compose - contains the docker-compose files defining the container sets
  • tools - contains different tools for interacting with Kolla
  • devenv - A collection of tools and resources for managing a Kolla development environment.
