+
+1. Set OpenStack environment parameters properly (e.g. source openrc admin demo
+ in DevStack)
+2. Create OpenStack tenant (e.g. promise) and tenant user (e.g. promiser)
+3. Create a flavor in Nova with 1 vCPU and 512 MB RAM
+4. Create a private network, subnet and router in Neutron
+5. Create an image in Glance
