Create a Cloudbreak credential on OpenStack

Cloudbreak works by connecting your OpenStack account through this credential, and then uses it to create resources on your behalf. Before you can start provisioning cluster using Cloudbreak, you must create a Cloudbreak credential.

Steps

  1. In the Cloudbreak web UI, select Credentials from the navigation pane.
  2. Click Create Credential.
  3. Under Cloud provider, select “OpenStack”.
  4. Select the keystone version.
  5. Provide the following information:

    For Keystone v2:

    Parameter Description
    Name Enter a name for your credential.
    Description (Optional) Enter a description.
    User Enter your OpenStack user name.
    Password Enter your OpenStack password.
    Tenant Name Enter the OpenStack tenant name.
    Endpoint Enter the OpenStack endpoint.
    API Facing (Optional) Select public, private, or internal.

    For Keystone v3:

    Parameter Description
    Keystone scope Select the scope: default, domain, or project.
    Name Enter a name for your credential.
    Description (Optional) Enter a description.
    User Enter your OpenStack user name.
    Password Enter your OpenStack password.

    Endpoint Enter the OpenStack endpoint.
