Installing and Configuring the Compute service (NOVA)

Configuring the Hypervisor (KVM)

• Install virtualizzation RPMs

# yum install qemu-kvm qemu-img virt-manager libvirt libvirt-python python-virtinst libvirt-client bridge-utils

# yum groupinstall Virtualization "Virtualization Client" "Virtualization Platform" "Virtualization Tools"

# yum install openstack-utils memcached qpid-cpp-server openstack-nova dnsmasq-utils

Ensure auth=no is set in /etc/qpidd.conf.

# openstack-config --set /etc/nova/nova.conf DEFAULT force_dhcp_release False

• Pre-configured the network (di default viene su così).

# ifconfig virbr0
