6.5. Deployment Configurations

You can use the user interface to back up the configuration of an existing deployment or overwrite the values of an existing deployment based on a backed up configuration file.

Important

While it is possible to edit the values of the parameters for each of the services in a deployment, you are asked to input the values of key parameters for each of the services during the process of creating a deployment. All other parameters do not need to be manually configured.

6.5.1. Viewing the Configuration of a Deployment

You can view a summary of the values assigned to each parameter for the services in a deployment.

Procedure 6.8. Viewing the Configuration of a Deployment

  1. Click OpenStack InstallerDeployments.
  2. Click the name of a deployment.
  3. Click Advanced Configuration.
  4. Click the name of a service to view the parameters for that service.
  5. Click Back to Deployment to return to the deployment details page when finished.

6.5.2. Editing Service Parameters

While the parameters for the services in a deployment are automatically generated when you create that deployment, you can manually edit those parameters to override the existing values.
  1. Click OpenStack InstallerDeployments.
  2. Click the name of a deployment.
  3. Click Advanced Configuration.
  4. Click Edit.
  5. Click the name of a service to view the parameters for that service.
  6. Enter a new value for the parameter in the text field for that parameter.
  7. Click Apply
Your changes are saved, and the new values are applied to any RHEL OpenStack Platform environments you provision using the deployment.

6.5.3. Importing a Deployment Configuration

Import a deployment configuration file from your local system to specify the values of parameters for the services in a deployment.

Procedure 6.9. Importing a Deployment Configuration

  1. Click OpenStack InstallerDeployments.
  2. Click the name of a deployment to open the details page for that deployment.
  3. Click Advanced Configuration.
  4. Click Import to open the Import Config pop-up window.
  5. Click Browse and search your local system for the configuration file to upload.
  6. Click Import Config.
The selected configuration file is imported and the values of the parameters defined by the configuration file overwrite those defined for the deployment.

Important

Importing a configuration file only overwrites the values of parameters that exist both in the current list of parameters for the deployment and in the imported configuration file. All other parameters retain their originally defined value and must be manually updated.

6.5.4. Exporting a Deployment Configuration

Export the values of parameters for the services in a deployment to a YAML file on your local system.

Procedure 6.10. Exporting a Deployment Configuration

  1. Click OpenStack InstallerDeployments.
  2. Click the name of a deployment.
  3. Click Advanced Configuration.
  4. Click Export from the Configuration list.
A YAML file containing the values of parameters for each service in the deployment is downloaded to your local system.
