Step 9 has specific changes for the use of XenServer.

1. Open the MySQL client and create the “glance” database. Replace *GLANCE_DBPASS* with your own:

   # mysql
     > create database glance;
     > grant all privileges on glance.* to 'glance'@'localhost' identified by '*GLANCE_DBPASS*';
     > grant all privileges on glance.* to 'glance'@'%' identified by '*GLANCE_DBPASS*';
     > quit
   

2. Create the “glance” user, role, service and endpoints. Provide *GLANCE_PASS* when prompted:

   # source admin-openrc.sh
   # openstack user create --domain default --password-prompt glance
   # openstack role add --project service --user glance admin
   # openstack service create --name glance --description "OpenStack Image service" image
   # openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne image public http://controller:9292
   # openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne image internal http://controller:9292
   # openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne image admin http://controller:9292
   

3. Install glance packages:

   # yum install openstack-glance python-glance python-glanceclient
   

4. Configure glance-api. Replace *GLANCE_DBPASS* and *GLANCE_PASS* with your own:

   # vim /etc/glance/glance-api.conf
   
     [database]
     connection = mysql://glance:*GLANCE_DBPASS*@controller/glance
   
     [keystone_authtoken]
     auth_uri = http://controller:5000
     auth_url = http://controller:35357
     auth_plugin = password
     project_domain_id = default
     user_domain_id = default
     project_name = service
     username = glance
     password =  *GLANCE_PASS*
   
     [paste_deploy]
     flavor = keystone
   
     [glance_store]
     default_store = file
     filesystem_store_datadir = /var/lib/glance/images/
   
     [DEFAULT]
     notification_driver = noop
   

5. Configure glance-registry. Replace *GLANCE_DBPASS* and *GLANCE_PASS* with your own:

   # vim /etc/glance/glance-registry.conf
   
     [database]
     connection = mysql://glance:*GLANCE_DBPASS*@controller/glance
   
     [keystone_authtoken]
     auth_uri = http://controller:5000
     auth_url = http://controller:35357
     auth_plugin = password
     project_domain_id = default
     user_domain_id = default
     project_name = service
     username = glance
     password = *GLANCE_PASS*
   
     [paste_deploy]
     flavor=keystone
   
     [DEFAULT]
     notification_driver = noop
   

6. Populate the glance database:

   # su -s /bin/sh -c "glance-manage db_sync" glance
   

• Note: “No handlers could be found for logger” warnings are normal, and can be ignored.

7. Enable and start the glance service:

   # systemctl enable openstack-glance-api.service openstack-glance-registry.service
   # systemctl start openstack-glance-api.service openstack-glance-registry.service
   

8. Add glance API version settings to the client authentication files:

   # echo "export OS_IMAGE_API_VERSION=2" | tee -a admin-openrc.sh demo-openrc.sh
   

9. Upload a sample image to the glance service:

   # source admin-openrc.sh
   # wget http://ca.downloads.xensource.com/OpenStack/cirros-0.3.4-x86_64-disk.vhd.tgz
   # glance image-create --name "cirros-xen" --container-format ovf --disk-format vhd --property vm_mode=xen --visibility public --file cirros-0.3.4-x86_64-disk.vhd.tgz
   

10. Confirm that the image has been uploaded:

    # glance image-list
