Open Stack

Cisco COI is a bottom-up OpenStack baremetal installer. Cobbler is uesd to build the nodes. We've an integrated preseed that you can alter as needed, and we also have a flag to enable expert disk configuration. As it stands though, the default config works well for unattended OS loads. We use puppet to deploy the necessary services. We use stackforge and some hand-rolled modules to do this. We've just finished adding an automatic ceph cluster installation option for use by glance and cinder. You can stand up a full cloud from baremetal to running in a few hours (most of that spent staring at the purple screen of wait).

We're finishing off a fully automatic HA baremetal bottom-up installer. We're shooting for the end of the month.

Peter:

Cobbler is another popular tool for deploying the bare metal servers, but it won't deploy OpenStack for you, it isn't an integrated solution like Crowbar or Fuel.

There's also an ongoing effort to use OpenStack deploy onto itself. The project is called TripleO (OpenStack on OpenStack). It's still in development, for details, see:

Peter:

Are you interested in a solution for provisioning the bare metal servers (i.e., installing the host operating system), or do you just want to deploy OpenStack on top of servers that already have the base OS installed?
