Hi everyone,
I'm a total newbie with openstack, currently I'm trying to put a POC with a Unity storage element, 4 computes, and few servers (cinder, keystone, glance, neutron, nova, placement and horizon).
I think my keystone, glance, placement are working (at least they past the test).
Currently I'm trying to make cinder working with my Unity (480), the objectif are to use iSCSI.
Here the configuration of my /etc/cinder/cinder.conf
[DEFAULT] rootwrap_config = /etc/cinder/rootwrap.conf api_paste_confg = /etc/cinder/api-paste.ini iscsi_helper = tgtadm volume_name_template = volume-%s volume_group = cinder-volumes verbose = True auth_strategy = keystone state_path = /var/lib/cinder lock_path = /var/lock/cinder volumes_dir = /var/lib/cinder/volumes enabled_backends = unity transport_url = rabbit://openstack:XXXXXX@amqp-cloud.private.FQDN /openstack auth_strategy = keystone debug = True verbose = True
[database] connection = mysql+pymysql://cinder:XXXXXXX@mariadb-cloud.private.FQDN /cinder
[keystone_authtoken] www_authenticate_uri = http://keystone.private.FQDN:5000/v3 auth_url = http://keystone.private.FQDN:5000 identity_uri = http://keystone.private.FQDN:5000 memcached_servers = memcached-cloud.private.FQDN:11211 auth_type = password project_domain_name = default user_domain_name = default project_name = service username = cinder password = XXXXXX
[oslo_concurrency] lock_path = /var/lib/cinder/tmp
[unity] # Storage protocol storage_protocol = iSCSI # Unisphere IP san_ip = onering-remote.FQDN # Unisphere username and password san_login = openstack san_password = "XXXXX" # Volume driver name volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.dell_emc.unity.Driver # backend's name volume_backend_name = Unitiy_ISCSI
This might be something to look at with the wrong spelling causing mismatch.
unity_io_ports = *_enp1s0 unity_storage_pool_names = onering
When I'm trying to create a storage through a
openstack volume create volumetest --type thick_volume_type --size 100
I don't even see (with tcpdump) the cinder server trying to connect to
onering-remote.FQDN
Inside my /var/log/cinder/cinder-scheduler.log I have
2021-04-19 18:06:56.805 21315 INFO cinder.scheduler.base_filter [req-4808cc9d-b9c3-44cb-8cae-7503db0b0256 f5e5c9ea20064b17851f07c276d71aee b1d58ebae6b84f7586ad63b94203d7ae - - -] Filtering removed all hosts for the request with volume ID '06e5f07d-766f-4d07-b3bf-6153a2cf6abd'.

No weighed backends available: cinder.exception.NoValidBackend: No valid backend was found. No weighed backends available
It seem (for me) cinder don't try to use unity....
The cinder-volume service is responsible for communicating with the backend and this create request fails on scheduler only, hence no sign of it.
Any help ?

Looking at the scheduler logs, there are a few things you can check: 1) execute ``cinder-manage service list`` command and check the status of cinder-volume service if it's active or not. If it shows an X sign then check in cinder-volume logs for any startup failure. 2) Check the volume type properties and see if ``volume_backend_name`` is set to the right value i.e. Unitiy_ISCSI (which looks suspicious because the spelling is wrong and there might be a mismatch somewhere) Also it's good to mention the openstack version you're using since the code changes every cycle and it's hard to track the issues with every release.
