安装OpenStack的操作系统

Question

I want to create own cloud using OpenStack.

1.) I want to know the best operating system on which I can deploy OpenStack project. Presently I am using ubuntu 12.04.

2.) Which is the shortest way to install OpenStack?

Thank you

Answer 1

I guess Ubuntu is the best option. I tried it with Fedora but there were some issues. So, I moved back to Ubuntu. Though you might want to try RHEL too. But if you want the easiest route, Ubuntu is the way to go.

Answer 2

Ubuntu was the distribution that nova was originally developed on. It has become the defacto standard for OpenStack development. 12.04 works fine, and the cloud archive that ubuntu operates contains semi supported backports of the latest stable releases of OpenStack including dependencies that will work on 12.04.

Saucy has more active development of Havana packages and dependencies.

I would recommend checking out :

Best of luck!

Answer 3

OpenStack is well supported on most distros now. I would choose the distro based on other factors at this stage. For completeness, openvswitch and network namespaces are supported on RHEL and Fedora now. For details of installing on RHEL/Centos/Fedora please see:

There is a 3 step process to install various versions of OpenStack on Red Hat flavors
