[Openstack] Howto Nova setup with HA?

Hi Stackers,

It seems running Openstack components in High Availability hasn't been really a focus point lately, am I right?

The general docs don't really mention HA except for nova-network. So I did some resource on how to run Nova in a High Availability and have some questions about it:

The docs guides you on how to setup one cloud controller (running MySQL, nova-api, RabbitMQ etc.) and 2+n nodes for nova compute/network. But it does not mention how to make the cloud controller redundant. If the cloud controller brakes we have a serious problem!

So, we can run MySQL in master-master mode on multiple hosts, we can run nova-api on serveral hosts and load balance those and RabbitMQ has a cluster ha setup as well but is this the way to go? I can't find a clear answer to this. I am hoping one can shine some light on this!

Best regards,
