Hey!

Sorry, can you please provide a little bit more output? As it's not even clear on what playbook/stage failure occurs.

As the error you have pasted can be a result of some prior failed task as well.

You can use https://paste.openstack.org/ to attach longer stdout

Hi all,

I've been experimenting with openstack through a devstack instance, but I need to start looking at a more realistic deployment architecture. I have a 5 node Proxmox cluster available, so I've created 6 VMs, one to serve as a deployment host for Ansible etc, one as a controller node, and four compute nodes. These are all currently set up with Ubuntu 22 LTS and configured with 128GB of disk, 20GB of RAM and 12 cores. I've verified that Ansible works, LXC works correctly, etc.

I'm getting a failure when I'm running 

    openstack-ansible openstack.osa.setup_infrastructure

Specifically I get errors like:

PLAY [Gather repo facts] *******************************************************************************************************

Inspecting the openstack-controller node manually with lxc-ls, there are no containers present. (I have manually created one and tested it successfully, so it's definitely not something weird with not being able to create/run containers).

Thank you in advance for your insights. :-)

Sarah

PS: When I have this working, next step is to put this on bare metal in a colo, assuming I can get it working.
