Running the Keystone Unit tests takes a long time.

Using the ipa CLI from an unenrolled workstation
FreeIPA is a useful tool for managing hosts. I find myself wanting to do work on remote systems from my desktop using the ipa CLI. Here’s how I set it up.

Tokenless Keystone
Keystone Tokens are bearer tokens, and bearer tokens are vulnerable to replay attacks. What if we wanted to get rid of them?
Template for a KeystoneV3.rc
If you are moving from Keystone v2 to v3 call, you need more variables in your environment. Here is a template for an update keystone.rc for V3, in jinja format:
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://{{ keystone_hostname }}:5000/v3
export OS_USERNAME={{ username }}
export OS_PASSWORD={{ password }}
export OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME=Default
export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_NAME=Default
export OS_PROJECT_NAME={{ project_name }}
export OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3
Using Ansible to add a NetworkManager connection
The Virtual Machine has two interfaces, but only one is connected to a network. How can I connect the second one?
Getting a Keystone Token in Rust
Python is a great language, but sometimes I miss type safety. While I was always comfortable with C++, I know that the lanugague has it’s warts. Lately, I’ve been taking an interest in Rust, which seems to be set to address many of the shortcomiings of C++. What better way to learn it than to try and use on problems I already know well; OpenStack and Keystone? So, I wrote my first non-trivial program, which gets a Keystone token.
Install FreeIPA via Ansible
No better way to learn some more details of Ansible than to automate a task I need to do on a regular basis: ipa-server-install.
Resetting a Known Host for SSH
I often create and destroy a virtual machine multiple times in development. SSH records the host and key and often complains about a changed value for a given key. As I am attempting to automate more and more, I need to be able to communicate with these recreated hosts without dealing with the warning messages.

More about Jason Amerine
A mutual friend of mine and Jason’s questioned the use of the word “Whistleblower” in the Survey. We are fairly certain it is the accurate term. Here was the response from Bill Ruhling, Lawyer for Jason.
Continue readingDynamic Policy and Microversions
Both Core APIs and Policy have been static for a long part of OpenStack’s lifespan. While I’ve been working on Dynamic Policy, the Nova team has been looking to use microversions to allow the API to morph more quickly. Are the two approaches going to interoperate, or are they going to conflict?
