How often is your pleasant night of sleep interrupted by a Neutron nightmare?  Although Neutron is one the most complex OpenStack projects to troubleshoot, this hands-on workshop will give participants awesome tips for quickly resolving Neutron-centric problems.

Each participant will gain hands-on Neutron troubleshooting experience by receiving credentials to a live OpenStack Kilo environment.  By the end of this workshop, participants will not only know how to identify and fix common Neutron issues but learn the necessary tools to prevent future headaches so you can finally get a good night's rest!

This lab session is to have a openstack Manila overview and hand on lab with manila on Dev stack.

Manila is the shared file system service. Manila allows tenants to manage shares, e.g., NFS exports, take snapshots, and adjust access rules.

You will get a Devstack with Manila installed.
We will have overview of basic features of Manila , share network , share ACLs and how to use Manila.

Hands-on with Manila API.

Trove is the OpenStack Database as a Service (DBaaS) project that
  provides a simple cloud based approach to the management of the
  complete lifecycle of a database.  DBaaS provides a flexible,
  scalable, on-demand platform that enables self-service and easy
  management of a variety of database management systems (DBMS).

  This tutorial provides attendees with a hands-on introduction to
  OpenStack Trove. Attendees will learn how to install, configure and
  operate OpenStack Trove. During the tutorial, they will launch both
  relational and NoSQL databases, configure and operate replicated
  pairs of databases, clusters of MongoDB instances, take backups,
  manage configuration parameters on groups of databases, and learn
  the benefits of DBaaS and OpenStack Trove.

  Attendees will get answers to questions such as:
  • What are the benefits of DBaaS and OpenStack Trove?
  • What are some of the common use-cases for Trove?
  • How do I install and configure Trove?
  • What databases can be orchestrated with OpenStack Trove?
  • How do I launch a database instance with Trove?
  • How do I manage features like replication and clustering with Trove?
  • How do backups and configuration management work with Trove?

Congress is an OpenStack project that provides policy as a service across any collection of cloud services in order to offer governance and compliance for dynamic infrastructures. In this lab users will get access to a live OpenStack setup with congress already installed and will be able to walk through several key congress deployment use cases and get hands on experience working with congress. Users will write policies that interface with several OpenStack projects (neutron, glance, nova,  keystone, cinder, murano) and understand how the policy language works and how one can tame their cloud with Congress.

In this interactive workshop, memebers of the Octavia team will walk attendees through the installation and configuration of Octavia, the Open Stack LoadBalancer, on a virtual machine. Attendees will leave with an understanding of the various components of Octavia, how to configure and tune the controller and the amphora, and with a working single-VM install on their laptops.

Attendees will learn:

• Octavia Architecture 101

• How to Install and Configure Octavia

• How to perform day to day Octavia operations tasks

• End user usage of the API, CLI and Horizon UI

• Tips and Tricks for using Octavia

• Contributing to Octavia 101

OpenStack continues to grow exponentially as the de facto standard for open source Cloud platforms. But how can someone quickly get started with learning this exciting new technology? This workshop will walk participants through an overview of the OpenStack components and offer practical suggestions and resources for learning OpenStack. To demonstrate one way to get started, we will assist workshop attendees to set up a multi-node OpenStack cloud, on their laptops, using the RDO distribution.

Participants will be introduced to a range of core cloud functionality. During the workshop, participants will be introduced to the following:

• Installing OpenStack


• Walking through the Horizon dashboard


• Adding new users


• Adding an image to Glance


• Defining networks in Neutron


• Starting a new virtual server


• Creating and attaching Cinder storage volumes to virtual servers


• Storing objects in Swift Using the Horizon Dashboard user interface

Instructions to prepare for the workshop will be posted at http://www.rdoproject.org/GettingStartedTokyoLiberty

This session is to provide a detailed review of how to deploy and operate OpenStack using the community supported Ansible playbooks (OSAD) located on Stackforge GitHub repo (https://github.com/stackforge/os-ansible-deployment). 

We'll focus on:

• Overall deployment process: the nuts and bolts


• Brief overview of Ansible


• How to make environment specific configurations


• Provide tips and tricks to handling the deployment


• Let's Build Your Cloud: interactive session


• Review 3-4 real life examples of how you can automate daily administrative tasks with Ansible

Attendees will be present with all the little details around how to deploy OSAD and things to look out for during the implementation.  Session is intended to be a very interactive and provide 'how-to' answers to building distributed OpenStack clouds.  While all cloud tasks can be executed via the API or CLI tool on a one by one basis, this would not be the best way to handle larger cloud deployments. The need for more of an automated approach to administering OpenStack is now clear. With the many IaaS capabilities OpenStack has to offer coupled with Ansible, an ease of use configuration management tool, assures a more complete cloud implementation.

Kubernetes is a thriving open source project for managing containerized applications across multiple servers using common best-practices. It is built upon more than a decade of experience running productions workloads at Google.

Kubernetes can run anywhere - cloud or bare metal.

This hands-on workshop will first provide a technical overview of Kubernetes architecture, and how the different components  and concepts work together to manage a cluster of containers. We will cover the basics of Kubernetes installation and administration. Kubernetes is a perfect system to sit on top of OpenStack and manage applications to run on top of the OpenStack cloud. So we will use Kubernetes on top of CoreOs on OpenStack as an exampke and learn how to deploy and manage applications and microservices that are light, portable and self-healing. Doing so, we will also cover the strengths and weaknesses of Kubernetes.

OpenStack has excellent workload orchestration support — except the information required to use it is not always wonderfully accessible. This workshop helps you navigate the orchestration maze.

In this technical workshop, you will be introduced to OpenStack Heat, cloud-init, and the hidden gems in cloud-config. Working on a live OpenStack infrastructure, you will learn how to deploy Heat orchestration templates, optimize instance configuration with cloud-init and cloud-config, and learn how to customize individual instances right from your Heat command line or the OpenStack Dashboard.

This workshop has already been presented twice, at OpenStack DACH in Berlin and at OpenStack Israel in Tel Aviv. In both instances, attendees reported the talk being an eye-opener, specifically with regards to relatively unknown features in cloud-init and cloud-config.

The Tokyo version comes with the latest relevant updates for Liberty.
