Hello, thanks a lot , you help me to understand a lot of things. in particular that I have a lot of modifications to make to have an operational openstack and with good performance. If my iscsi bay is attached to S3 (I have S1, S2 and S3), I have to put glance on S3 with a mount in the filesystem of S3, and enable the cache. My images are in qcow2. suddenly I do not know if I modify them. Finally, and I don't know if this is the best solution, to make images that work well, I go through virtualbox, then from VDI to RAW (then from RAW to QCOW2 but it was a big mistake if I well understood). For example, I am having trouble with an opnsense image if I create the iinstance from iso and Horizon. If I go through virtualbox on another computer, then copy the files, the image is OK. Weird …. Ah, I forgot, I didn't realize that order was important in a module [module]. Really not easy to handle all of this. Anyway thank you for your help. I will check the docs again and try to change this next week. Franck

Hello Franck, glance is not deployed on all nodes at default. I got the same problem In my case I have 3 controllers. I created an nfs share on a storage server where to store images. Before deploying glance, I create /var/lib/glance/images on the 3 controllers and I mount the nfs share. This is my fstab on the 3 controllers:
10.102.189.182:/netappopenstacktst2_glance /var/lib/glance nfs rw,user=glance,soft,intr,noatime,nodiratime
In my globals.yml I have: glance_file_datadir_volume: "/var/lib/glance" glance_backend_file: "yes"
This means images are on /var/lib/glance and since it is a nfs share all my 3 controlles can share images. Then you must deploy. To be sure the glance container is started on all controllers, since I have 3 controllers, I deployed 3 times changing the order in the inventory. First time: [control] A B C
Second time: [control] B C A
Third time: [control] C B A
Or you can deploy glance 3 times using -t glance and -l <controllername>
As far as the instance stopped, I got I bug with a version of kolla. https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible/+bug/1941706 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible/+bug/1941706> Now is corrected and with kolla 12.2.0 it works. Ignazio

Hello and thank you for the help. I was able to move forward on my problem, without finding a satisfactory solution. Normally, I have 2 servers with the role [glance] but I noticed that all my images were on the first server (in / var / lib / docker / volumes / glance / _data / images) before the reconfigure, none on the second. But since the reconfiguration, the images are placed on the second, and no longer on the first. I do not understand why. I haven't changed anything to the multinode file. so, to get out of this situation quickly as I need this openstack for the students, I modified the multinode file and put only one server in [glance] (I put server 1, the one that had the images before reconfigure), I did a reconfigure -t glance and now I have my images usable for instances. I don't understand what happened. There is something wrong.
Is it normal that after updating the certificates, all instances are turned off? thanks again

Hello everyone
I have a strange problem and I haven't found the solution yet. Following a certificate update I had to do a "kolla-ansible -t multinode reconfigure ». Well, after several attempts (it is not easy to use certificates with Kolla-ansible, and from my advice, not documented enough for beginners), I have my new functional certificates. Perfect ... well almost.
I am trying to create a new instance to check general operation. ERROR. Okay, I look in the logs and I see that Cinder is having problems creating volumes with an error that I never had ("TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable).
We'd like to see the logs as well, especially the stacktrace.
I dig and then I wonder if it is not the Glance images which cannot be used, while they are present (openstack image list is OK).
I create an empty volume: it works. I am creating a volume from an image: Failed.
What commands are you running? What's the output? What's in the logs?
However, I have my list of ten images in glance.
I create a new image and create a volume with this new image: it works. I create an instance with this new image: OK.
What is the problem ? The images present before the "reconfigure" are listed, visible in horizon for example, but unusable. Is there a way to fix this, or do we have to reinstall them all?
What's your configuration? What version of OpenStack are you running?
