Distributions release OpenStack packages as part of the distribution or using other methods because of differing release schedules. Perform these procedures on all nodes.
Warning
Your hosts must contain the latest versions of base installation packages available for your distribution before proceeding further.
Note
Disable or remove any automatic update services because they can impact your OpenStack environment.
# apt-get install software-properties-common
# add-apt-repository cloud-archive:liberty
Upgrade the packages on your host:
# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
Note
If the upgrade process includes a new kernel, reboot your host to activate it.
Install the OpenStack client:
# apt-get install python-openstackclient
