Memcached
~~~~~~~~~
The Identity service authentication mechanism for services uses Memcached
to cache tokens. The memcached service typically runs on the controller
node. For production deployments, we recommend enabling a combination of
firewalling, authentication, and encryption to secure it.
Install and configure components
--------------------------------
#. Install the packages:
.. only:: ubuntu
.. code-block:: console
# apt-get install memcached python-memcache
.. only:: rdo
.. code-block:: console
# yum install memcached python-memcached
.. only:: obs
.. code-block:: console
# zypper install memcached python-python-memcached
.. only:: ubuntu
2. Edit the ``/etc/memcached.conf`` file and configure the
service to use the management IP address of the controller node
to enable access by other nodes via the management network:
.. code-block:: ini
-l 10.0.0.11
.. note::
Change the existing line with ``-l 127.0.0.1``.
Finalize installation
---------------------
.. only:: ubuntu or debian
* Restart the Memcached service:
.. code-block:: console
# service memcached restart
.. only:: rdo or obs
* Start the Memcached service and configure it to start when the system
boots:
.. code-block:: console
# systemctl enable memcached.service
# systemctl start memcached.service
