Public bug reported:


This bug tracker is for errors with the documentation, use the following
as a template and remove or add fields as you see fit. Convert [ ] into
[x] to check boxes:

- [ ] This doc is inaccurate in this way: ______
- [x] This is a doc addition request.

-----------------------------------
Release: 18.0.1.dev7 on 2018-09-08 06:55
SHA: f5a528761e1b2599911c7b5ec8c8c99112e02701
Source: https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova/tree/doc/source/install/compute-install-rdo.rst
URL: https://docs.openstack.org/nova/rocky/install/compute-install-rdo.html


Going through installation procedure there is a section which could benefit from clarification. 

Guide explains how to set up keystone authentication with auth_url
parameter, which is correct way of doing it :

[keystone_authtoken]
# ...
auth_url = http://controller:5000/v3


Configuration file however contains two parameters that seem to be service this function : 

www_authenticate_uri
auth_uri

Note that "auth_uri" is not equal to "auth_url". In addition "auth_uri"
is deprecated in favour of the "www_authenticate_uri".

I have made a mistake of typing "auth_uri" parameter by hand instead of
a copy&paste from guide, and as a result had issue starting the nova-
api.service

I would think a clarification of this may be helpful for those following
guide, either explanation that config file has "auth_uri" parameter,
that is different parameter and you need to add "auth_url" to that
section, or information that config file has a typo that needs to be
corrected.
