The next wizard will guide you through a simple OpenStack setup in a local virtualized environment. As described in the previous section, we will distribute different service roles for each virtual machine. Note that a test environment should reflect a logical design of a proper production setup. In this example, several services have been encapsulated into a single node while this approach should be refined more. As a start, and for the sake of simplicity, the common services of OpenStack and the infrastructure will be distributed as follows:
