Designate configuration is needed for getting it work correctly either with real OpenStack environment or without OpenStack environment.

NOTE: The most of the following operations should performed in designate directory.

1. You can generate full sample designate.conf (if it does not already exist):

       $ oslo-config-generator --config-file etc/designate/designate-config-generator.conf --output-file /etc/designate/designate.conf

2. You can generate full sample of default policies policy.yaml (if it does not already exist):

       $ oslopolicy-sample-generator --config-file etc/designate/designate-policy-generator.conf --output-file /etc/designate/policy.yaml
