[chef] Re: Re: Nectar cloud (openstack) and chef configuration

["Ifeanyi P. Egwutuoha" < >]

Here is the knife openstack sample configuration for Nectar Cloud.

knife[:openstack_username] = "Your OpenStack Dashboard username e.g., <
 
 ">
 >"
knife[:openstack_password] = "API generated password; this is the password generated by clicking on settings on dashboard > reset password e.g., <267CTWY5618710HYTWVU>"
### Note: If you are not proxying HTTPS to the OpenStack auth port, the scheme should be HTTP
knife[:openstack_auth_url] = "http://cloud.mycompany.com:5000/v2.0/tokens"
knife[:openstack_tenant] = "Your OpenStack tenant name"

Regards, Ifeanyi.

Interesting, could you expand on that a bit more so I can update the
knife-openstack docs to cover what the issue was?

Thanks,
