# Using Docker Containers With TripleO ## Configuring TripleO with to use a container based compute node. Steps include: - Adding a base OS image to glance - Deploy an overcloud configured to use the docker compute heat templates ## Getting base OS image working. Download the fedora atomic image into glance: ``` wget https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Cloud/x86_64/Images/Fedora-Cloud-Atomic-22-20150521.x86_64.qcow2 glance image-create --name atomic-image --file Fedora-Cloud-Atomic-22-20150521.x86_64.qcow2 --disk-format qcow2 --container-format bare ``` ## Configuring TripleO You can use the tripleo.sh script up until the point of running the Overcloud. https://github.com/openstack/tripleo-common/blob/master/scripts/tripleo.sh Create the Overcloud: ``` $ openstack overcloud deploy --templates=tripleo-heat-templates -e tripleo-heat-templates/environments/docker-rdo.yaml --libvirt-type=qemu ``` Source the overcloudrc and then you can use the overcloud. ## Debugging You can ssh into the controller/compute nodes by using the heat key, eg: ``` nova list ssh heat-admin@<compute_node_ip> ``` You can check to see what docker containers are running: ``` sudo docker ps -a ``` To enter a container that doesn't seem to be working right: ``` sudo docker exec -ti <container name> /bin/bash ``` Then you can check logs etc. You can also just do a 'docker logs' on a given container.
