easier to deploy, maybe for testing and getting involved with openstack, but it's not really recommended for
Hi, Sorry to bother. I continued to think about it. If the the original purpose of "local storage of glance" is just to make openstack production use. I can accept this setting. I used to think of it as an equal way to use shared storage. Thank you. Han 韩光宇 <hanguangyu2@gmail.com> 于2022年1月6日周四 10:33写道：
Deal all,
Sorry that maybe I ask a stupid question. But I'm really confused with it and didn't find discuss in glance document(https://docs.openstack.org/glance/latest/).
I have a OpenStack Victoria cluster with three all-in-one node in centos8. I implemented it with reference to https://docs.openstack.org/ha-guide/. So this cluster use Pacemaker, HAproxy and Galera. "To implement high availability, run an instance of the database on each controller node and use Galera Cluster to provide replication between them."
I found that I will encounter an error If I configure Glance backend to use local storage driver to store image files on the local disk. If I upload a image, this image only will be storaged in one node. But the database only storage the file path of image such as "/v2/images/aa3cbee0-717f-4699-8cca-61243302d693/file", don't have the host information. The database data is same in three node.
If I upload a image in node1, image only is storaged in node1. The database of three node stores the local filesystem path of image. And If The create Instance task is assigned to node2, It will find image in node2, but image can't be found in node2. So we get the "Image has no associated data" error.
So I want to ask: 1. Wheter glance does not support using local filesystem storage in a cluster? 2. If 1 was right, why do we do this design instead of storing information about the host on which images is located, as nova does with instance.
I would appreciate any kind of guidance or help.
Thank you, Han Guangyu
