[Openstack] [OPENSTACK] [GLANCE] VMWARE Instance provisioning taking more time for all the instances

Hi,

We have deployed Openstack on VMware and the following is the topology:

1-      Controller node (API,Scheduler,Mysql and RabbitMQ)

2-      Compute Node (network, compute)

3-      ESX 4.1 Server

4-      Glance Server
The Openstack instance provisioning time is ~ 1 to 2hr for 4GB image, so installed  glance within the compute node then provisioning took around ~ 15Mins.

Here is my Question:

1)      Can we setup multiple glance servers for each compute node or location wise to reduce the download time for  big images like 20GB?

2)      Is it possible to keep multiple glance servers and sync among them?

Your help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Nagaraju B

Hi,

We have deployed Openstack on VMware and we could able to provision Instances but image is not getting cached on compute/ESX server and for every provisioning of instances the image is getting downloaded from glance.

Please provide steps to cache VMDK images on compute.

Regards,
Nagaraju B
