Hi,

As Brandon pointed out you can’t run V1 and V2 at the same time because they share the same database tables and interpret columns differently. Hence, at HPE we have some proprietary script which takes the V1 database tables and migrates them to the V2 format. After that the v2 agent based driver will pick it up and create those load balancers.

To migrate agent based driver to Octavia we are thinking self migration since people van use the same (ansible) scripts and point them at Octavia.

Thanks,
German

A lb created in v1 doesn't show up in v2 or vis a versa. But being able to enable both at once gives users a migration path. If you don't do this, all their lb's will just disappear when going to octavia. :/
