[nova-lxd] no one uses nova-lxd?
Hey,
We were planing to migrate some thousand containers from OpenVZ 6 to Nova-LXD this fall and I know at least one company with the same plans.
I read the message about current team retiring from the project.
Unfortunately we don't have the manpower to invest heavily in the project development. We would however be able to allocate a few hours per month, at least for bug fixing.
So I'm curios if there are organizations using or planning to use Nova-LXD in production and they have the know-how and time to contribute.
It would be a pity if the the project dies.

Hey Adrian,
I was playing with Nova LXD with OpenStack Ansible, I have an example here:
https://github.com/tmartinx/openstack_deploy/tree/master/group_vars
It's too bad that Nova LXD is gone... :-(
I use LXD a lot in my Ubuntu servers (not openstack based), so, next step would be to deploy bare-metal OpenStack clouds with it but, I canceled my plans.
Cheers! Thiago

Looks like you can still use LXC if that fits your use case. It also looks like there are images that are current here https://us.images.linuxcontainers.org/
Not sure the state of the driver, but maybe give it a whirl and let us know how it goes.

Octavia was looking at doing a proof of concept container based backend driver using nova-lxd, and some work had been slowly ongoing for the past couple of years. But, it looks like we also will have to completely abandon that effort if the driver is dead. Shame. :(

you could try the nova libivirt dirver with virt_type=lxc or zun instead

Yeah we're definitely looking into Zun, which is probably a better approach going forward, but it's a very different implemention and we were pretty close with the old one. Didn't mean to make it sound like we'd stop working on containerization, it's just a setback. :D
