<div dir="ltr">I have done similar in the past except I had some phys for novadocker, some for regular kvm nova. There should be no problem doing the novadocker within VMs instead. You can actually also run novadocker and nova on the same phys host, there's a blog post[1] that somebody wrote that details the setup for it ... from memory you have to run two nova-computes and two neutron-agents with different settings to make it work.<div><br></div><div>[1] <a href="http://blog.oddbit.com/2015/01/17/running-novalibvirt-and-novadocker-on-the-same-host/">http://blog.oddbit.com/2015/01/17/running-novalibvirt-and-novadocker-on-the-same-host/</a></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Aug 31, 2015 at 4:20 PM, Mike Smith <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mismith@overstock.com" target="_blank">mismith@overstock.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

I’m still experimenting with containers with our Openstack Kilo installation. Since I don’t necessarily need the feature set provided by Magnum, I was trying the (supposedly) simple nova-docker approach. However, I don’t want to dedicate an entire server
for containers and I want the ability to migrate containers between physical servers for management purposes.

<div>It occurs to me that I should be able to configure a VM as a nova-docker hypervisor. I should then get the advantages of being able to move that VM between physical nodes. That way I also don’t have to dedicate an entire piece of hardware to
nova-docker.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Have others out there tried this approach? I’d love to hear if this is something people are doing. </div>

<div>Currently, I have software dependency issues trying to install and run RDO Kilo nova-compute on a CentOS 7 VM with Docker installed on it. I plan to work through those issues, but if there is some reason that this just won’t work I’d love to
spare myself some time.</div>
