Hello All,

We have deployed OpenStack multinode using Kolla-Ansible. We are able to create VMs, Docker Containers (using Zun). However, we also want to launch LXCs, but we couldn't find any such option in globals.yaml to enable this support.

Is there any plan to provide it out-of-box? If anybody has enabled LXC using Kolla-Ansible by themselves, then also please let us know.

Hi Amit, Kolla-ansible does not have explicit support for LXC-based nova instances. I'm not aware of anyone with plans to add support for this, although if you would like to do this work we would be happy to take it upstream. I have not used LXC as a nova virt driver before. Do you have a feel for what is required to make this work? Does nova use libvirt to manage the LXC containers? If so we could probably make use of the existing libvirt image. Regards, Mark Thanks.

Regards, Amit
