Use this procedure to add {OpenStack} hardware settings to a compute profile. When you create a host on {OpenStack} using this compute profile, these settings are automatically populated.
-
In the {ProjectWebUI}, navigate to Infrastructure > Compute Profiles.
-
In the Compute Profiles window, click the name of an existing compute profile, or click Create Compute Profile, enter a Name, and click Submit.
-
Click the name of the {OpenStack} compute resource.
-
From the Flavor list, select the hardware profile on {OpenStack} to use for the host.
-
From the Availability zone list, select the target cluster to use within the {OpenStack} environment.
-
From the Image list, select the image to use for image-based provisioning.
-
From the Tenant list, select the tenant or project for the {OpenStack} instance.
-
From the Security Group list, select the cloud-based access rules for ports and IP addresses.
-
From the Internal network, select the private networks for the host to join.
-
From the Floating IP network, select the external networks for the host to join and assign a floating IP address.
-
From the Boot from volume, select whether a volume is created from the image. If not selected, the instance boots the image directly.
-
In the New boot volume size (GB) field, enter the size, in GB, of the new boot volume.
-
Click Submit to save the compute profile.
The compute profile CLI commands are not yet implemented in {ProjectName}. As an alternative, you can include the same settings directly during the host creation process.
