I recently deployed a couple of test servers for Nova; I'm using Diablo v3 (<a href="http://wiki.openstack.org/NovaInstall/RHEL6Notes-Diablo-3" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstack.org/NovaInstall/RHEL6Notes-Diablo-3</a>) on RHEL v6; here are my current issues:<br>
<br>On the Cloud Controller node I can launch instances and I'm able to ping them but they don't come up cleanly because they're unable to connect to the 169.254.169.254 host via HTTP for metadata<br><br>cloud-setup: checking <a href="http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/instance-id" target="_blank">http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/instance-id</a><br>
wget: can't connect to remote host (169.254.169.254): Connection timed out<br>cloud-setup: failed 1/30: up 1.38. request failed<br><br>I've tried various IPTables settings but still no go.<br><br>On the compute only node (1st one of hopefully many); I have larger issues:<br>
<br>I haven't figured out how to successfully change the bridge interface for br100; my network uses eth0 for the monitoring/admin NW and I can't change that. I was able to change it OK for the cloud controller via the settings for the network.<br>
Also, when instances try to run on the compute node I receive the errors below; also I see that the kernel files out in the instances sub-directories are 0 byte files:<br><br>./instance-0000000b:<br>total 4124<br>-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 17 23:28 ramdisk<br>
