OpenStack and supporting services require administrative privileges during installation and
operation. In some cases, services perform modifications to the host that can interfere with
deployment automation tools such as Ansible, Chef, and Puppet. For example, some Open-
Stack services add a root wrapper to sudo that can interfere with security policies. See the
Cloud Administrator Guide for more information. Also, the Networking service assumes de-
fault values for kernel network parameters and modifies firewall rules. To avoid most issues
during your initial installation, we recommend using a stock deployment of a supported dis-
tribution on your hosts. However, if you choose to automate deployment of your hosts, re-
view the configuration and policies applied to them before proceeding further.
Networking
After installing the operating system on each node for the architecture that you choose to
deploy, you must configure the network interfaces. We recommend that you disable any
automated network management tools and manually edit the appropriate configuration
files for your distribution. For more information on how to configure networking on your
distribution, see the documentation.
RHEL and CentOS enable a restrictive firewall by default. During the installation process,
certain steps will fail unless you alter or disable the firewall. For more information about se-
curing your environment, refer to the OpenStack Security Guide.
