Installation¶

Manual Installation¶

For Manila UI installation in RDO, see: Installing Manila UI in RDO. For other distributions, begin by cloning the Horizon and Manila UI repositories:

git clone https://github.com/openstack/horizon
git clone https://github.com/openstack/manila-ui

Create a virtual environment and install Horizon dependencies:

cd horizon
python tools/install_venv.py

Set up your local_settings.py file:

cp openstack_dashboard/local/local_settings.py.example openstack_dashboard/local/local_settings.py

Open up the copied local_settings.py file in your preferred text editor. You will want to customize several settings:

• OPENSTACK_HOST should be configured with the hostname of your OpenStack server. Verify that the OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_URL and OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_DEFAULT_ROLE settings are correct for your environment. (They should be correct unless you modified your OpenStack server to change them.)

Install Manila UI with all dependencies in your virtual environment:

tools/with_venv.sh pip install -e ../manila-ui/

And enable it in Horizon:

cp ../manila-ui/manila_ui/local/enabled/_*.py openstack_dashboard/local/enabled
cp ../manila-ui/manila_ui/local/local_settings.d/_90_manila_*.py openstack_dashboard/local/local_settings.d

Installing Manila UI in RDO¶

In order to install Manila UI in RDO, please follow the steps below (you may need to use sudo privileges if you are not root):

# yum install -y openstack-manila-ui
# systemctl restart httpd
# systemctl restart memcached

Manila UI will now be available through OpenStack Horizon; look for the Shares tab under Project > Compute. You can access Horizon with Manila UI using the same URL and port as before.
