Filter gives you a group of valid hosts, assuming they are equally weighted, you may try with these two settings to pick up a host in a more even manner. host_subset_size (increase the size) shuffle_best_same_weighed_hosts (enable the shuffle)
https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/configuration/config.html
yes the weighers are what will blance between the hosts and the filters determin which host are valid so if you want to spread based on ram then you need to adject the https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/configuration/config.html#filter_sche... for example set ram_weight_multiplier=10.0 to make it relitivly more important. the way the weigher work is all wheigher calulate the weight for a host, we then add them after multiplying them by the weights and then sort.

Hi,
I have 5 compute nodes. When I deploy instances, the most of the instances automatically placed in node 1 or node 2. The other compute nodes remain empty or with one or two instances on it.
enabled_filters = ComputeFilter,ComputeCapabilitiesFilter,ImagePropertiesFilter,ServerGroupAntiAffinityFilter,ServerGroupAffinityFilter,AggregateInstanceExtraSpecsFilter
I have enabled the above filters. How to ensure that instances should be scheduled on compute nodes evenly on all compute hosts based on RAM only ? Like scheduler should schedule the instance on compute host which has a large amount of RAM available then other hosts.
