Hi Dmitriy, Thanks for the response. Sorry, I forgot to mention that i used kolla ansible for deployment. As per kolla docs, glance-api container runs only in one controller. So i am looking from kolla perspective if it can automatically switch it over other available controllers.
Regards Pradeep

Hi,
I'm not sure if you used any deployment tool for your environment, but usually for such failover there's a load balancer in conjunction with VRRP or Anycast, that able to detect when controller1 is down and forward traffic to another controller.
As example, OpenStack-Ansible as default option installs haproxy to each controller and keepalived to implement VRRP and Virtual IPs. So when glance is down on controller1, haproxy will detect that and forward traffic to other controllers. If controller1 is down as a whole, keepalived will detect that and raise VIP on controller2, so all client traffic will go there. Since controller2 also have haproxy, it will pass traffic to available backends based on the source IP.

Hello All,
I understand that glance-api container run only one controller always. I have tried to check if the glance-api container to switch over to the next available controller by means of rebooting and stopping the containers, but nothing happened. Is there a way to make sure that glance-api container switches to other controllers if controller 1 is not available.
Thanks for you help
