Package: openstack-tempest-ci-live-booter (0.25)

[ Source: openstack-meta-packages  ]

configures a server to boot a custom live image to test OpenStack

The best environment to run OpenStack in order to test it, is a Debian Live system, booted over PXE, which we just "reinstall" by performing an (IPMI) reboot of the server. However, such setup is complicated, and error-prone. This is why this package was designed for: configuring a computer to act as PXE/DHCP/apache to boot that 2nd server.

This package configures the different tools (ie: isc-dhcp-server, tftpd-hpa, apache and son on) with a script. Its intention is *not* to be clean, but to just do the job of configuring for testing OpenStack. It is *not* to be used in production.

This package also contains the necessary scripts to create the Debian Live image using live-build, and the qemu-kvm setup to start a virtual machine that will PXE boot using that live image, so it is easy to test the setup without actual real hardware.
