Foreman deep dive: OpenStack provisioning with plugins

Greg Sutcliffe and I show a pair of new plugins that with the 1.3 installer, help set up a new Foreman instance ready to provision OpenStack clusters.

The first is foreman_setup, used to quickly set up provisioning and the second is foreman_openstack_cluster, used to set up host groups to configure OpenStack controllers and compute nodes. They’re based on astapor, an RDO project, to set up a Foreman instance fully populated and ready to provision using a script.
