Andreas Jaeger 443462d924 Install Guide: Clarify database node setup
Some people were not aware that they needed to install MySQL packages
on nodes. This patch rearranges the code so that we have separate
sections for controller and node and thus readers should easily
spot what needs to be done.

Openstack Manuals

This repository contains the cloud administrator documentation for the OpenStack project. It includes documentation for:

  • OpenStack Compute
  • OpenStack Identity Service
  • OpenStack Image Service
  • OpenStack Object Storage
  • OpenStack Dashboard
  • OpenStack Network Connectivity
  • OpenStack Volumes

For more details, see the OpenStack Documentation HowTo wiki page.

In addition to the guides, this repository contains:

  • docs.openstack.org: www
  • tools for gating tests prior to merging documentation in this repo

Prerequisites

Apache Maven must be installed to build the documentation.

To install Maven 3 for Ubuntu 12.04 and later,and Debian wheezy and later:

apt-get install maven

On Fedora 15 and later:

yum install maven3

Building

The different manuals are in subdirectories of the openstack-manuals/doc/ directory.

For example, the root directory of the OpenStack User Guide is openstack-manuals/doc/user-guide.

To build a specific guide, look for a pom.xml file within a subdirectory, then run the mvn command in that directory. For example:

cd openstack-manuals/doc/user-guide/
mvn clean generate-sources

The generated PDF documentation file is:

openstack-manuals/doc/user-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/user-guide.pdf

The root of the generated HTML documentation is:

openstack-manuals/doc/src/user-guide/target/docbkx/webhelp/user-guide/content/index.html
