Verifying OpenStack operation¶

_images/installation-workflow-verify-openstack.png

To verify basic operation of the OpenStack API and the Dashboard, perform the following tasks on an infrastructure host.

Verify the API¶

The utility container provides a CLI environment for additional configuration and testing.

Determine the name of the utility container:

# lxc-ls | grep utility
infra1_utility_container-161a4084

Access the utility container:

# lxc-attach -n infra1_utility_container-161a4084

Source the admin tenant credentials:
```
# source /root/openrc
```

Run an OpenStack command that uses one or more APIs. For example:

# openstack user list

Verifying the Dashboard (horizon)¶

With a web browser, access the Dashboard by using the external load balancer IP address defined by the external_lb_vip_address option in the /etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml file. The Dashboard uses HTTPS on port 443.
Authenticate by using the admin user name and the password defined by the keystone_auth_admin_password option in the /etc/openstack_deploy/user_secrets.yml file.
