This is indeed the wrong list to ask on, however check out https://www.citrix.com/blogs/2015/11/30/integrating-xenserver-rdo-and-neutron/ for a step-by-step guide for installing XenServer + RDO

Thanks,

Bob

Subject: [OpenStack-Infra] XenServer & RDO

Has anyone been able to install RDO OpenStack over XenServer?

This page has no detail:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/XenServer/XenAndXenServer

The blog has no search and so is just a haystack to me:
https://www.openstack.org/blog/

The IRC channel is dead, with 1,000 users.

I managed to overcome 5 problems in packstack to get the install completed, and all services were running, but then there's nothing at 192.168.0.2/dashboard.  httpd is running and I get the testing page at 192.168.0.2 .

So after a week of constant failure, I had to conclude that XenServer just doesn't work with OS, so I blew it all away and reverted to pure RDO.  Installed CentOS 7.1 Cloud host minimal new on the disk (EFI) and booted.  Installed the RDO repo and packstack.  Ran packstack --allinone as it says here:
https://www.rdoproject.org/install/quickstart/

... it completes a couple steps then asks for my root password.  I enter it and it asks again.  And again...  when it dumps out with "Permission denied."  A password failure.  Well I know root's password;  I logged out and in again.  The log says "Permission denied" and journalctl has nothing useful.

RDO is busted too?

Why are things so broken?  How does anyone succeed with this starting from the ground up?
