Chapter 4. Configuring the User Interface
The configuration required to provision Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform is performed automatically when you install the user interface, but you can also manually configure aspects of the user interface such as the location of an installation media entry, or the credentials of a Customer Portal account used to register machines with the Customer Delivery Network. The information in this chapter is provided as a reference for updating the existing values specified during the installation process or for performing additional configuration.
4.1. Logging in to the User Interface
Log in to the user interface for the installer.
Note
The first time you log in to the user interface, you must use the default administrative user account with the name
admin and the password randomly generated during the installation process. If you do not have a copy of this password, you can retrieve it by running the following command:
#grep admin_password /etc/foreman/rhel-osp-installer.answers.yaml
Procedure 4.1. Logging in to the User Interface
- In a web browser, navigate to the URL provided on completing installation of the user interface. By default, this URL comprises the fully qualified domain name of the machine on which the user interface is installed. For example,
https://myhost.example.com/. - Enter your username in the Username text field, and your password in the Password text field.
- Click the button.
You have logged in to the user interface, and the Dashboard page is displayed. If no reports on hosts that the installer manages are available, a welcome page is displayed that includes instructions on editing general settings. No action needs to be taken.
