Starting the blueprint designer, cloud discovery service, and engine

To start the blueprint designer and its associated services, you must start the cloud discovery service, the blueprint design server, and the engine Heat services.

About this task

Depending on your system configuration, these components might be on different computers. Be sure to start the cloud discovery service, the blueprint design server, and the engine Heat services on the correct computers.

Starting the cloud discovery service

Procedure

Start the cloud discovery service:

On Linux, for version 6.2.0.2 and later, run the following command:
```
cloud-discovery-service &
```
On Linux, for versions prior to version 6.2.0.2, run the following command:
```
/opt/ibm-ucd-patterns/opt/udeploy-patterns-cloud-discovery-service/runserver
    &
```
On Windows, for version 6.2.0.2 and later, run the following command:
```
C:\python_installation_directory\Scripts\cloud-discovery-service.exe
```
Use the location where Python is installed for python_installation_directory. The default installation directory is C:\Python27. By default, the command looks like this code:
```
C:\Python27\Scripts\cloud-discovery-service.exe
```
On Windows, for versions prior to version 6.2.0.2, run the following command:
```
server_installation_directory\opt\udeploy-patterns-cloud-discovery-service\runserver.exe
```
Use the location of the blueprint design server installation for server_installation_directory. The default installation directory is C:\Program Files\ibm-ucd-patterns. By default, the command looks like this code:
```
C:\Program Files\ibm-ucd-patterns\opt\udeploy-patterns-cloud-discovery-service\runserver
```

Starting the blueprint design server

Procedure

Start the blueprint design server:

On Linux, run the following command:
```
server_installation_directory/bin/server start
```
Use the location of the blueprint design server installation for server_installation_directory. The default installation directory is /opt/ibm-ucd-patterns. By default, the command looks like the following code:
```
/opt/ibm-ucd-patterns/bin/server start
```
On Windows, run the following command:
```
C:\server_installation_directory\bin\start_server
```
Use the location of the blueprint design server installation for server_installation_directory. The default installation directory is C:\Program Files\ibm-ucd-patterns. By default, the command looks like the following code:
```
"C:\Program Files\ibm-ucd-patterns\bin\start_server"
```

Starting the engine Heat services

Procedure

Restart the engine database. If you use MySQL, use the following command:
```
service mysqld start
```

Start the Heat services:

service openstack-heat-engine start

service openstack-heat-api start

service openstack-heat-api-cfn start

service openstack-heat-api-cloudwatch start

If you installed a Keystone server when you installed the engine, start it:
```
service openstack-keystone start
```
