Installation¶
There are in general two ways to install Senlin service: you can install it via devstack, or you install it manually, following the steps outlined in this document.
Install via Devstack¶
This is the recommended way to install the Senlin service. Please refer to following detailed instructions.
Download DevStack:
$ git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack-dev/devstack $ cd devstack
Add following repo as external repositories into your
local.conf
file:[[local|localrc]] #Enable senlin enable_plugin senlin https://git.openstack.org/openstack/senlin #Enable senlin-dashboard enable_plugin senlin-dashboard https://git.openstack.org/openstack/senlin-dashboard
Optionally, you can add a line SENLIN_USE_MOD_WSGI=True
to the same local.conf
file if you prefer running the Senlin API service under Apache.
Run
./stack.sh
:$ ./stack.sh
Note that Senlin client is also installed when following the instructions.
Manual Installation¶
