Kolla containers obtain time from the host they run on. Therefore, it is important that hosts (virtual hosts in the case of the heat template) maintain proper time. NTP should be used for this purpose. Change-Id: Ieaf272c79884fb8b5e655ba52d8cc72467a9c831
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
- Zaqar
- Horizon
$ 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
- k8s - contains service and pod configuration information for Kubernetes
- tools - contains different tools for interacting with Kolla
- devenv - A collection of tools and resources for managing a Kolla development environment.
