os-cloud-config

Configuration for OpenStack clouds.

When first installing an OpenStack cloud there are a number of common up-front configuration tasks that need to be performed. To alleviate the need for different sets of tooling to reinvent solutions to these problems, this package provides a set of tools.

These tools are intended to be well-tested, and available as importable Python modules as well as command-line tools.
