Heng,

Does scheduler log show any error message or complaints?

Thanks,

Joseph

Subject: [Openstack] Cannot pass hint to Nova Scheduler



Hi folks: 
I am new to openstack, I am current trying to test the json filter, I changed my /etc/nova/nova.conf as follow 

scheduler_driver=nova. 
scheduler.multi.MultiScheduler 
compute_scheduler_driver=nova.scheduler.filter_scheduler.FilterScheduler 
volume_scheduler_driver=nova.scheduler.chance.ChanceScheduler 
scheduler_available_filters=nova.scheduler.filters.standard_filters 
scheduler_default_filters=JsonFilter 
least_cost_functions=nova.scheduler.least_cost.compute_fill_first_cost_fn 
compute_fill_first_cost_fn_weight=-1.0 

so I can use the json filter 
however, when I was using it, if I boot a vm without any --hint to the scheduler, then the vm started fine, but if I use 

nova --debug boot --image 827d564a-e636-4fc4-a376- 
d36f7ebe1747 --flavor 1 --hint query=['>=','$free_ram_mb',1024] server1 

my vm started with error, and the following were output from the command above 

+----------------------------- 
--------+--------------------------------------+ 
| Property | Value | 
+-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ 
| OS-DCF:diskConfig | MANUAL |

+-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ 

as you can see, the vm is in error, this also happens whenever I need to pass a hint to the scheduler, as in samehostfilter and differenthostfilter, 

Does anyone know what's going on, thanks in advance. 
Heng
