Some people has mentioned packstack as a deployment tool for production, however as far as I know packstack does not provide HA.
Would tripleO be a better fit for production instead of packstack? thanks Manuel -----Original Message----- From: Juris M.

I would like to add my two cents to the ones suggesting to use a deployment tool, like Puppet, Ansible or Packstack (whichever you prefer, really, or depending on any dependencies you may have) if for nothing else but the fact that you'll end up with some sort of reusable instruction file. This is preferable for a few reasons. You can inspect the file to see what are the various things the deployment system accounted for to perform the deployment. You can then add or change variables to experiment and using some version control system save your configurations to return to a known or interesting configuration. If you're interested in how the actual configuration of the services looks like, you can always connect to your nodes and inspect them that way, or collect them and compare to the answer file to see which option affected what. Also, this will primarily save you time, as your experimentation may break the environment for some reason, and it will simply become tedious to do it by hand over and over. I do, however, suggest that you try to repeat the deployment of a service or few by hand in different configurations, just to get the hang of it and walk through the process manually and see what all the moving pieces are - this will come in handy in situation when something breaks and you want to be able to fix it rather than redeploy. I wish you the best of luck :) -- Juris M. On Mon, 2017-01-16 at 12:35 -0800, Remo Mattei wrote: > The main point is what you are trying to get out.
