Hello,

Sorry for a beginner question.  I am trying to deploy a 3-host minimal test cluster on VirtualBox hosts via OpenStack-Ansible.  My purpose is to first build this test cluster and then to deploy a production cluster on physical hardware.  The test cluster will be used first to learn, and then to validate changes prior to deploying them on the production cluster.

I started with Vagrant-Openstack, but it is still based on Stein and not easily adaptable to Xena.

Right now I'm working with Xena and OpenStack-Ansible 24.x on Debian 10 with a deployment host running Debian 11. All 4 systems are native VirtualBox VMs  I've managed to deploy a couple of nearly functional clusters this way, but never fully functional and stable.

Any guidelines or recommendations for this kind of deployment would be sincerely appreciated.

Thanks.

-Dave
