[Openstack-operators] Instances failing to launch when rbd backed (ansible Liberty setup)

From the traceback it looks like nova-compute is running out of a venv.

You need to activate the venv, most likely via: source /openstack/venvs/nova-12.0.16/.venv/bin/activate then run: pip freeze.  If you don’t see the RBD stuff – then that is your issue.  You might be able to fix via: pip install rbd.

Venv’s are self-contained python installs, so they do not use the system level python packages at all.

I would also ask for some help in the #openstack-ansible channel on irc as well.

Hi all,

We have a openstack-ansible setup and have ceph installed for the backend. However whenever we try and launch a new instance it fails to launch and we get the following error:

It moans about the rbd python libraries not being found, however all of the rbd libraries appear to be installed fine via apt. ( We are running Ubuntu)

Compute host packages:

dpkg -l | grep ceph
ii  ceph-common                          10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        common utilities to mount and interact with a ceph storage cluster
ii  libcephfs1                           10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        Ceph distributed file system client library
ii  python-ceph                          10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        Meta-package for python libraries for the Ceph libraries
ii  python-cephfs                        10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        Python libraries for the Ceph libcephfs library

 dpkg -l | grep rbd
ii  librbd1                              10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        RADOS block device client library
ii  python-rbd                           10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        Python libraries for the Ceph librbd library

Has anyone come across this before? Ceph is working fine for Glance, it just seems to be with the nova compute hosts.

Many thanks,
