Open Stack

I talked to the engineer that originally set it up. He said that it was
installed manually using instructions he found on openstack's site. He
said that he had tried several "automatic" installers that failed. I
believe, by that, he means that he used apt to install the packages
individually. He did say that while the server is still on the same
version of ubuntu that we originally started with, he has updated
openstack and swift several times.

So, I guess the question is, will our version of openstack run on
ubuntu 18 or 20 so that we can upgrade the OS and then use apt to
update openstack?

Thank you,
joshua.

That's a loaded question.
How was Openstack deployed?
How was the Swift component deployed?
Answering these two questions will impact what tooling you can use to
upgrade your packages. It will be split between the Openstack packages
and the regular distro packages.
