Hello,
You should look into Octavia project: LoadBalancer as a Service.

hi guys,
A novice here so go easy on me please. I wonder - is there a mechanism in openstack, a built-in feature where a floating IP could be juggled between guests/instances dynamically - would you know? What comes to mind is something like HA/pacemaker, something where business logic operates around condition and actions. I cannot make is simpler than such an example - instance_A has floating_IPa but if something "bad" happens to it then floating_IPa moves to instance_B - can something like that be handled by openstack's tooling or goes outside its realm and can only be worked out however anybody would do it individually?
many thanks, L. Would what you suggest be achievable, doable by a non-admin?
As long as Octavia is installed, yes. If not, then you can achieve what Octavia does using VRRP ports sharing a floating IP (which you wouldn't assign, just reserve). That's in fact more or less what Octavia does. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
