<div dir="ltr">Hi Guillermo, Adam,<div>while itself Fuel is open source technology [1], it still uses OpenStack packages provided by Mirantis by default. Packages contain some fixes which are required to ensure HA and some other defects which are not yet merged in upstream (but we are actively pushing those).</div><div><br></div><div>It is already possible to build RPM packages of vanilla OpenStack for Fuel. Please see blueprint [1], and current status [2] on so-called deployment openstack from master. The idea is that we will have open spec files for packages, which are going to be used for both Mirantis OpenStack, and upstream packages, and we will have packages built periodically, using vanilla OpenStack.</div><div>The following use cases are going to be covered:</div><div><ol><li>If I want to build Fuel ISO with latest already built OpenStack vanilla packages, I just run "make iso"</li><li>If I want to build Fuel ISO with already built packages, but use my own fork of Neutron and Nova (or something else), I can provide it as parameters to "make iso". See [3], this is already covered for RPM packages</li><li>I want to build my Neutron (or other OpenStack project) package and make it available on already running Fuel Master node, so I can immediately start deployment of new envs with this new package</li><ul><li>requires repo rebuild on master node, more complicated for Ubuntu</li></ul><li>I want to patch already running OpenStack environment with my version of Neutron (or other), doing it by OpenStack patching feature in Fuel (to be implemented in 5.1, current milestone).</li><ul><li>In this case flow would look like: package build -> repo update -> patch environment in automated manner, delivering the code in minutes to the running environment<br></li></ul></ol></div><div>If #2 is already implemented for RPMs, then #1 requires OBS (package builder) and other infrastructure to be setup. It is WIP, and expected to be ready in a month or two.</div><div>#3 and #4 are going to take more.</div><div><br></div><div>I hope this helps. We will be announcing this stuff in more details soon in openstack-dev with [Fuel] in subject: stay tuned.</div><div><br></div><div><div>[1] <a href="http://wiki.openstack.org/fuel">wiki.openstack.org/fuel</a></div><div>[2] <a href="https://blueprints.launchpad.net/fuel/+spec/openstack-from-master">https://blueprints.launchpad.net/fuel/+spec/openstack-from-master</a></div><div>[3] <a href="https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/fuel-build-rpms-from-anywhere">https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/fuel-build-rpms-from-anywhere</a></div></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 10, 2014 at 12:23 AM, Adam Lawson <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:alawson@aqorn.com" target="_blank">alawson@aqorn.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">In a word, no.
