The whole cell thing tripped me up earlier this week. From what I understand it’s hard coded in the upgrade scripts to be the same as the nova_api db with cell0 appended to the db name but there is a patch in to change this behavior to match what the install docs say. So it looks like if you just put the nova_cell0 db on the same host and make the credentials match your nova db everything will just work out. You can double check by looking at the cell_mapping table entries in your nova_api db. > On May 26, 2017, at 10:56 AM, Massimo Sgaravatto <massimo.sgaravatto at gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi > > I am reading the RDO installation guide for Ocata. In the nova section [*] it is explained how to create the nova_cell0 database, but I can't find how to set the relevant connection string in the nova configuration file. > Any hints ? > Thanks, Massimo > > > [*] > https://docs.openstack.org/ocata/install-guide-rdo/nova-controller-install.html <https://docs.openstack.org/ocata/install-guide-rdo/nova-controller-install.html> > _______________________________________________ > OpenStack-operators mailing list > OpenStack-operators at lists.openstack.org > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-operators -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
