Re: [openstack-dev] [Savanna] Savanna on Bare Metal and Base Requirements
Travis, Sounds like your environment should work fine. There are no special requirements beyond Grizzly/Havanna. Following the installation guides: https://savanna.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ is relatively straight forward. If you are using neutron networking, you will need to rely on public IPs until the we complete an enhancement for working around this limitation.

Re: [openstack-dev] [Savanna] Savanna on Bare Metal and Base Requirements
Hello Travis, We didn't researched Savanna on bare metal, though we considered it some time ago. I know little of bare metal provisioning, so I am rather unsure what problems you might experience. My main concern are images: does bare metal provisioning work with qcow2 images? Vanilla plugin (which installs Vanilla Apache Hadoop) requires a pre-built Linux images with Hadoop, so if qcow2 does not work for bare metal, you will need to somehow build images in required format. On the other hand HDP plugin (which installs Hortonworks Data Platform), does not require pre-built images, but works only on Red Hat OSes, as far as I know. Another concern: does bare metal support cloud-init? Savanna relies on it and reimplementing that functionality some other way might take some time. As for your concern on which API calls Savanna makes: it is a pretty small list of requests. Mainly authentication with keystone, basic operations with VMs via nova (create, list, terminate), basic operations with images (list, set/get attributes). Snapshots are not used. That is for basic functionality. Other than that, some features might require additional API calls. For instance Cinder support naturally requires calls for volume create/list/delete.
