OpenStack on Turing Pi 2 with RK1

Building Images

I've tried the provided -aarch64 debian images but they had problems everywhere
Setup registry somewhere (in my case thor.fritz.box:4000)
Build own images using kolla-build -b ubuntu --registry thor.fritz.box:4000 --push
Customize docker_registry* and openstack_tag options in ./ansible/files/kolla-globals.yml

Disk setup

Preparations

cd ansible

# generate ssh key
mkdir -p "$(pwd)/files/ssh"
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f "$(pwd)/files/ssh/id_ubuntu"

ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml preparations.playbook.yaml

Then you need to add the ssh host keys to the known_hosts of your deploy node (you don't need to login). In my case:

ssh ubuntu@tp-rk-0.fritz.box
$ ssh tp-rk-0.fritz.box
yes
$ ssh tp-rk-1.fritz.box
yes

You can also disable HostKeyCheking in /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg.

Deploy

cd ansible
ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml deploy.playbook.yaml

To follow the deployment execute the following command on the deploy node:

tail -f /var/log/kolla-deploy/install-deps*
tail -f /var/log/kolla-deploy/bootstrap-servers*
tail -f /var/log/kolla-deploy/octavia-certificates*
tail -f /var/log/kolla-deploy/prechecks*
tail -f /var/log/kolla-deploy/deploy*

Note: tail -f /var/log/kolla-deploy/* somehow does not tail all files

Post deploy

SSH onto the deploy node
