To create the database, complete these steps:
Use the database access client to connect to the database server as the
root
user:$ mysql -u root -p
Create the
vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin
database:CREATE DATABASE vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin;
Grant proper access to the
vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin
database:GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin.* TO 'vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin'@'localhost' \ IDENTIFIED BY 'VMWARE-NSX-TEMPEST-PLUGIN_DBPASS'; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin.* TO 'vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin'@'%' \ IDENTIFIED BY 'VMWARE-NSX-TEMPEST-PLUGIN_DBPASS';
Replace
VMWARE-NSX-TEMPEST-PLUGIN_DBPASS
with a suitable password.Exit the database access client.
exit;
Source the

user:$ openstack user create --domain default --password-prompt vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin
Add the

$ openstack service create --name vmware-nsx-tempest-plugin --description "openstack" openstack
Create the openstack service API endpoints:
$ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ openstack public http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ openstack internal http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \ openstack admin http://controller:XXXX/vY/%\(tenant_id\)s
