Both have two physical NICs, eth0 has an assigned IP address for management of the host from outside, eth1 in promiscuous mode for VM communication. Is the following assumptions correct? </div><div><br></div><div> - compute-node has to run "nova-compute", Controller node does not have to run "nova-compute" (as it will not be hosting any VMs)</div><div> - In a single-host mode (networking wise), only the controller node should run nova-network.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you,</div><div>Ahmed.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></body></html>
