I will let the Mirantis experts to answer the question about the RDO repos. I believe that they have their own packages called MOS but I could be wrong.

On the Chef side, we are using all community Stackforge cookbooks and we haven't found major issues.

Thanks,

Edgar

Hi Edgar,

does Fuel support RDO based repo? Do you use cookbooks from stackforge or you build them yourself?

Thanks,
Pedro Sousa

Pedro,

I also recommend Fuel. Very nice and practical, specially because you can start with a small virtual environment before moving to Bare-metal.
You can also investigate on the Chef side if you are interested. As Operators we had most of our automation on Chef and we are pretty happy with the state of the cookbooks but if you are looking for a more easy to use and UI-based deployment tool, that will be Fuel:

Hi all,

I'm looking into some options to deploy Openstack. I use RDO based Juno distro and had been using packstack tool (based on puppet) to deploy it, but it's not flexible enough as it lacks some features, as HA.

I've been looking to Foreman and TripleO project as alternatives, but would appreciate some input on community based on it's own experience and pain :)  on some good options to achieve this, having HA and Cloud Monitoring in mind. Also it would be a plus to address things like rolling upgrades, although I know this is not an easy task. :)

Thanks,
Pedro Sousa
