Blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+spec/training-manuals
weekly meeting agenda https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/training-manuals
trello storyboard https://trello.com/board/openstack-training/51d6e5fee37248fd5b003de9

Project requirements

• Reuse the openstack foundation manuals with some additional training specific pages
• Target 80% doc reuse
• Same process as existing manuals
• Leave in space and time for distro specific training
• Training material and lab work would all be based on refstack https://etherpad.openstack.org/RefStackBlueprint

Project dependancies / issues

• openstack-docs refactoring https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Blueprint-restructure-documentation: as of 15jul2013, the impact will be minimal. colin and sean will continue monitor
• breakdown of task management

• in launchpad, the blueprint will hold status and links back to bugs,
• in launchpad bugs on the published documentation will be posted,
• on this wiki page the project status and overview will be posted
• in trello the story boards and sprints will be published and developed

• breakdown of responsibilities of the three teams:

• core: attend weekly IRC meets, attend core sprints when called, gerrit review bugs and patches
• sub-core: work through sub-core sprints by checking out book chapters, fix bugs
• extended: walk through and use training-manuals, create bugs, provide content reviews

Overview of training structure (Self Paced and user group paced)

time - name - topics covered

• 1 month - associate - general
• 2.5 months - ops general - general, nova, glance
•                          - ops specialization - swift, quantum, oslo, or cinder
• 2.5 months - dev general - general, nova, glance
•                          - dev specialization - nova, glance, swift, quantum, oslo, cinder
• 6 months - devOps general - general, nova, glance
•                          - devOps specializaton - nova, glance, swift, quantum, oslo, cinder

structure

• openstack associate engineer
• openstack operations engineer
• openstack development engineer
• openstack devOps architect

openstack associate

• reference http://docs.openstack.org/grizzly/openstack-compute/admin/content/
• most of sections 1-12, 14-15
• tag admin manual subsections to be included in the training manual
• training would take 1 month self paced, (2) 2 week periods with a user group meeting, or 16 hours instructor led. Some time set aside for distro specific training.
• requirements for test

• create an instance
• understand conf and log files
• understand basics of APIs and framework architecture
• understand shared components
• work off a single node openstack implementation
• get on IRC, mailing lists

openstack operations engineer

• training would take 2.5 months self paced, (5) 2 week periods with a user group meeting, or 40 hours instructor led with 40 hours of self paced lab time. Some time set aside for distro specific training.
• reference http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-ops/content/

• most of sections 1-17, workbook scenarios to diagnose

• reference Nova API reference http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-compute/2/content/
• referenece Glance API reference
• http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-image-service/1.0/content/
• requirements for test

• deep understanding of nova and glance
• deep understanding of one other core project;; swift, quantum, olso, or cinder
• trace workflow
• work off a three node openstack implementation, create a vagant/chef configuration
• based on http://workstuff.tumblr.com/post/50911984233/some-tips-on-getting-started-with-vagrant-and-chef
• understanding of core components interaction through APIs
• deep understanding of core conf and log files
• puppet/chef understanding
• 5-10 scenarios to diagnose, hands on?

openstack development engineer

• combine how to contribute and working with CI guides into a developers guide
• training would take 2.5 months self paced, (5) 2 week periods with a user group meeting, or 40 hours instructor led with 40 hours of self paced lab time. Some time set aside for distro specific training.
• include ideas from

• http://redmine.upstream-university .org/projects/slides/repository/revisions/master/show/training
• http://www.slideshare.net/eyepv6/open-stack-summitsurvivingyourfirstcheckin
• http://www.slideshare.net/delapsley1/opensack-quantum-devstack-tutorial,
• http://www.slideshare.net/khinnu4u/developing-withdevstack
• compute API http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-compute/programmer/content/
• http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/devref/index.html

• upstream university work is focusing on this
• deep understanding of APIs
• commit code through git
• karma greater than X

openstack devOps architect

• training would take 6 months or (12) 2 week periods with a user group meeting. 240 hours of self paced lab time.
• Meant to be very hard to complete. Public contribution must be a considerable part of the work completed. This will make the person who passes very desirable as an employee.
• code contribution, CI infrastructure time in, operations builds, contributions to answer, speaking at user groups, summit session submissions should all count towards karma/contribution.
• use TripleO for build/ops environment. include https://github.com/tripleo/incubator/blob/master/devtest.md
• karma greater than Y
