Overview of this book

OpenStack Open Source software is one of the most used cloud infrastructures to support software development and big data analysis. It is developed by a thriving community of individual developers from around the globe and backed by most of the leading players in the cloud space today. It is simple to implement, massively scalable, and can store a large pool of data and networking resources. OpenStack has a strong ecosystem that helps you provision your cloud storage needs. Add OpenStack's enterprise features to reduce the cost of your business. This book will show you the steps to build up a private cloud environment. At the beginning, you'll discover the uses of cloud services such as the identity service, image service, and compute service. You'll dive into Neutron, the OpenStack Networking service, and get your hands dirty with configuring ML2, networks, routers, and Distributed Virtual Routers. You’ll then gather more expert knowledge on OpenStack cloud computing by managing your cloud's security and migration. After that, we delve in to OpenStack Object storage and how to manage servers and work with objects, cluster, and storage functionalities. Also, as you go deeper into the realm of OpenStack, you'll learn practical examples of Block storage, LBaaS, and FWaaS: installation and configuration covered ground up. Finally, you will learn OpenStack dashboard, Ansible and Foreman, Keystone, and other interesting topics.

Checking cluster health

We can measure the health of our cluster by using the swift-dispersion-report tool. This is done by checking the set of our distributed containers to ensure that the objects are in their proper places within the cluster.

Getting ready

Ensure you are logged in to the swift-proxy nodes. If you created this node with Vagrant, you can access it by using the following command:

vagrant ssh swift-proxy

How to do it...

Carry out the following steps to set up the swift-dispersion tool to report on cluster health:

  1. We create the configuration file (/etc/swift/dispersion.conf) required by the swift-dispersion tool, as follows:

    [dispersion] 
auth_url = https://192.168.100.200:5000/v2.0
auth_user = cookbook:admin
auth_key = openstack
auth_version = 2.0
keystone_api_insecure = yes

    Tip

    We're using keystone_api_insecure in this environment because we are using a self-signed certificate for our keystone endpoint. This skips the validation of the certificate.

  2. Now, we need to create containers...
