Intro

This wiki describes how to enable Domain Scoped Token support in Horizon and how to navigate the existing work flows.

Prerequisites

devstack

You'll need to have keystone running in a VM or somewhere you can reach it from Horizon.

keystone policy.json file

You can start testing with the default /etc/keystone/policy.json file but at some point you will want to switch in the following file: https://github.com/openstack/keystone/blob/master/etc/policy.v3cloudsample.json

memcached

  • Memcached should be installed and running (perhaps on the same host as horizon to keep things simple)
  • The memcached client library needs to be installed in horizon's venv (python-memcached==1.53)
  • Horizon needs to be configured to use memcached

local_settings.py

...
# We recommend you use memcached for development; otherwise after every reload
# of the django development server, you will have to login again. To use
# memcached set CACHES to something like
CACHES = {
   'default': {
       'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache',
       'LOCATION': '127.0.0.1:11211',
   }
}
SESSION_ENGINE = 'django.contrib.sessions.backends.cache'
...

keystone v3

Horizon needs to be configured to use keystone v3 and multi domain support

local_settings.py

...
OPENSTACK_API_VERSIONS = { "identity": 3, }
OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_MULTIDOMAIN_SUPPORT = True 
OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_URL = "http://%s:5000/v3" % OPENSTACK_HOST
...

django-openstack-auth

You'll need to pull down this patch to be able to retrieve a domain scoped token from the http session. https://review.openstack.org/#/c/141153/

Cloud Admin account in keystone

One way to enable this account to grant your admin user access to the 'default' domain. If a user has an 'admin' role and access to the 'default' domain then they are considered to be a Cloud Admin.


Users

This page only considers three users

  • Cloud Admin
  • Domain Admin
  • User (_member_ role)
