Intro

XenServer Fuel Plugin will help to deploy Mirantis OpenStack over XenServer hosts and make sure they work as xenapi rather than qemu.

Usage

  • Create a new environment with the Fuel UI wizard. Select "Juno+Citrix XenServer on Ubuntu 14.04.1" from OpenStack Release dropdown list. At the moment you will see most of options are disabled in the wizard.
  • Create new VMs in XenCenter for all roles and use xencenter-himn-plugin to add management network to those supposed to run as Compute Nodes.
  • Add new VMs to the new environment according to Fuel User Guide and configure them properly. A typical topology of 1 controller node + 3 compute nodes + 1 storage node is recommended.
  • Go to Settings tab and scroll down to "XenServer Plugin" section. You need to input the common access credentials to all XenServers that previously are used to create new VMs.
  • Click "Deploy Changes" button
  • After deployment is done, you will see in Horizon that all hypervisors are xen.
