OpenStack High Availability Guide

Abstract

This guide describes how to install and configure OpenStack for high availability. It supplements the Installation Guides and assumes that you are familiar with the material in those guides.

Warning

This guide is a work-in-progress and changing rapidly while we continue to test and enhance the guidance. There are open TODO items throughout the guide which will be tracked on the ha-guide Storyboard site. There is also a bug list corresponding to the old version of the guide which need to be triaged, as some of those bugs may still be relevant in which case they need to be ported over to Storyboard. Please help where you are able.
