<div dir="ltr">Quantum's metadata solution for Grizzly can run either with or without the l3 agent.<div style>When running within the l3 agent, packets directed to 169.254.169.254 are sent to the default gateway; the l3 agent will spawn a metadata proxy for each router; the metadata proxy forwards them to the metadata agent using a datagram socket, and finally the agent reaches the Nova metadata server.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Without the l3 agent, the 'isolated' mode can be enabled for the metadata access service. This is achieved by setting the flag enable_isolated_metadata_proxy to True in the dhcp_agent configuration file. When the isolated proxy is enabled, the dhcp agent will send an additional static route to each VM. This static route will have the dhcp agent as next hop and <a href="http://169.254.0.0/16">169.254.0.0/16</a> as destination CIDR; the dhcp agent will spawn a metadata proxy for each network. Once the packet reaches the proxy, the procedure works as above. This should also explain why the metadata agent does not depend on the l3 agent.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>If you are deploying the l3 agent, but do not want to deploy the metadata agent on the same host, the 'metadata access network' can be considered. This option is enabled by setting enable_metadata_network on the dhcp agent configuration file. When enabled, quantum networks whose cidr is included in <a href="http://169.254.0.0/16">169.254.0.0/16</a> will be regarded as 'metadata networks', and will spawn a metadata proxy. The user can then connect such network to any logical router through the quantum API; thus granting metadata access to all the networks connected to such router.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>I think the documentation for quantum metadata has not yet been merged in the admin guide.</div><div style>I hope this clarifies the matter a little... although this thread has gone a little bit off-topic.

<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi!</div><div><br></div><div> I'm working with Grizzly G3+RC1 on top of Ubuntu 12.04.2 and here is the guide I wrote:</div><div><br></div><div> <a href="https://gist.github.com/tmartinx/d36536b7b62a48f859c2" target="_blank">Ultimate OpenStack Grizzly Guide</a></div>
<div><br></div><div> It covers:</div><div><br></div><div> * Ubuntu 12.04.2</div><div> * Basic Ubuntu setup</div><div> * KVM</div><div> * OpenvSwitch</div><div> * Name Resolution for OpenStack components;</div><div> * LVM for Instances</div>
<div> * Keystone</div><div> * Glance</div><div> * Quantum - Single Flat, Super Green!!</div><div> * Nova</div><div> * Cinder / tgt</div><div> * Dashboard</div><div><br></div><div> It is still a draft but, every time I deploy Ubuntu and Grizzly, I follow this little guide...</div>
<div><br></div><div> I would like some help to improve this guide... If I'm doing something wrong, tell me! Please!</div><div><br></div><div> Probably I'm doing something wrong, I don't know yet, but I'm seeing some errors on the logs, already reported here on this list. Like for example: nova-novncproxy conflicts with novnc (no VNC console for now), dhcp-agent.log / auth.log points to some problems with `sudo' or the `rootwarp' subsystem when dealing with metadata (so it isn't working)...</div>
<div><br></div><div> But in general, it works great!!</div><div><br></div><div>Best!</div><div>Thiago</div></div>
