Following the install guide for HP Helion Openstack, http://docs.hpcloud.com/helion/commun...

I follow these steps

Log in as root:

sudo su -
Determine if .ssh/id_rsa exists:

ls -l ~root/.ssh/id_rsa
NOTE: The output should look like the example below:

drwxr-x--- . 4096 May 11 09:23
-rwxr-x--- ..4096 May 11 09:23
-rwxr-x--- id_rsa1455 May 11 09:24
-rwxr-x--- id_rsa.pub 1455 May 11 09:24
If the key does not exist, create one, omitting a passphrase and accepting the defaults by pressing Enter:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -N

This is the output i get

root@baHPHelion:/datadrive/tripleo# ls -l ~root/.ssh/id_rsa
-rw------- 1 root root 1766 Nov 16 01:32 /root/.ssh/id_rsa

I go on to start the install
