[Octavia] Active/Standby with AZ
by Vincent Godin 04 Apr '25

04 Apr '25

Hello, To address the Octavia and Cinder backend mismatch, I'm going to temporarily create a Cinder backend stretched across all three AZs. Now I have another question: is it possible to use Octavia AZs to set up an active/standby load balancer so that the active load balancer is on one AZ and the standby load balancer is on another one ? Of course, the network is stretched across all three AZs, so the VRRP mechanism is possible. Vincent

Hey I've been struggling with trying to get my kolla-ansible openstack multinode deployment working with my external trunked port i have openstack connected to and also using my external dhcp server. Does anyone have any thoughts on what I could be missing? I grasping at straws at this point and ill buy ya dinner if you can help me! when I launch a vm i see it assigning vms an ip but its no way its coming from my external dhcp server i think its just coming from its own pools. Also to add I'm using 2024.2 My global yaml - enable_neutron_provider_networks: "yes" neutron_external_interface: "bond0" network_interface: "eno3" when running ip a i see which i have no clue if they are suppose to say down in my head it doesn't seem right but im not sure because i havent had a successful deployment yet so not sure what its suppose to look like. bond0 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master ovs-system state UP group default qlen 1000 ovs-system ovs-system: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 br-ex: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 br-int: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 br-tun: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 extra conf files /etc/kolla/config/neutron/ml2_conf.ini [ml2] type_drivers = vlan tenant_network_types = vlan mechanism_drivers = openvswitch extension_drivers = port_security [ml2_type_vlan] network_vlan_ranges = physnet1:100:100,physnet1:144:144,physnet1:513:513 /etc/kolla/config/neutron/openvswitch_agent.ini [ovs] bridge_mappings = physnet1:br-ex Thanks, Jonathan Bowley IT Specialist / DevOps Engineer / SysAdmin IT Services National Geospatial Technical Operations Center (NGTOC<http://ngtoc.usgs.gov/>) U.S. Geological Survey Rolla, Missouri

Non predictable device name/path in libvirt/qemu config with multipath
by Gilles Mocellin 03 Apr '25

03 Apr '25

Hello Stackers, Today I had a stressful problem. While doing system upgrades on my Ubuntu based OpenStask-Ansible deployment, with Pure Storage cinder driver and boot from volume instances, I faced that problem : While migrating instances to evacuate a compute node, several instances never wanted to live migrate (Kubernetes workers with 16GB RAM). After restarting several times, attempting to change some nova/libvirt configuration (certainly not taken, because qemu was not restarted on source host), I decider to cold migrate thoses instances. So I simply use : openstack server migrate instance-uuid The instances tried to start on other compute node, but failed. Two have the same problem I would talk about, the third just didn't find the volume/LUN on the storage Array (also very weird). So, why the other two didn't start ? They wanted to use a multipath map that was already in use. And really in use from another instance. the multipath -f mpathxy was tried and make the multipath map unusable for the instance which used it. It was the database of an important app, to add a little bit of stress. This is not happening with successful live migration, I only see it with cold migrations. But with some instances, I really don't manage to have a successful live migration, so it can be useful to also have a working cold migration (I mean stop, migrate, and start the instance). So, my questions are : 1. Should multipath.conf enable or not user friendly names ? I didn't find a recommended multipath config. I saw both in kolla templates (not using friendly names) or starlingX ones or old bugs (using friendly names, for data flush to really be effective on paths...) Didn't find yet if openstack-ansible is managing multipath or not. I would say that without friendly names, we have predictable names in /dev/ mapper/ (with WWN), that if used couldn't lead to device "steal" if every instance record that predictable device. 2. Is there some configuration for libvirt/qemu ? Because, in the libvirt/qemu instance config file, the devices are not the multipath map but the /dev/dm-XY where the multipath map symlinks to... Also not predictable and changing, especially when changing compute hosts with different number of accessible volumes... Did someone already had those problems, and how do you handled it ?

Roles in documentation vs. actual permissions
by Jani Heikkinen 03 Apr '25

03 Apr '25

I have been installing Openstack Dalmation 2024.2 on Debian Bookworm. I've noticed when creating an user on default domain on a demo project, and run 'openstack role add --project demo --user myuser admin', this user will have the whole system-wide admin rights thereafter. Is this intended? Documentation[1]. claims that an admin could have project-wide scope only. Is there some underlying assumption that I create myself the project_admin, domain_admin, domain_manager, project_manager roles and modify policies in keystone, and this would be the reason why the scopes do not work? Same issues seem to be touching the "manager" role, of which I already opened a bug report.

New ETSI NFV report is now available
by Ildiko Vancsa 02 Apr '25

02 Apr '25

Hi, I'm reaching out to draw your attention to a new ETSI NFV report[1] that discusses the evolution of the NFV architectural framework, to support the latest trends and use cases. If your organization is active in telecommunications or related segments you might find this paper important to follow the evolution of NFV architectures, as it incorporates new types of virtualization technologies, heterogenous infrastructure and hyper-distributed edge deployment, computing and network convergence. I would also like to note that as the ETSI NFV ISG has been collaborating with relevant open source communities, they are also open to feedback on the contents of this recent publication. Best Regards, Ildikó [1] https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_gr/NFV-IFA/001_099/054/06.01.01_60/gr_nfv… ——— Ildikó Váncsa Director of Community Open Infrastructure Foundation

Hello All Trying to leverage OVN(ML2) with Openstack, would like to get community review on deploying OVN with Provider Network based mode (using vlan), don't want to use Project based networks. This is to migrate existing linux bridge based deployment to OVN ( with all running vms ) Looking for community support/feedback in adopting this model
