Hi Miroslav,

Kindly find our setup details below and let us know your suggestion to form 
accurate setup for certification –

a) The number of physical servers you have for certification (I assume 2)
3

b) The number of network interfaces, available for tests on each physical 
server.
Physical Server 1 : 2 NICs
Physical Server 2 : 2 NICs
Physical Server 3 : 2 NICs

All 3 Physical Servers are attached to the Brocade VDX device.

Thanks and Regards,
Gandhi Rajan

Subject: Re: [Fuel-dev] How to configure physical server as compute node

Greetings Gandhi,
Virtualbox scripts do the following:
1. These scripts create everything  - virtual nodes and virtual networks - 
inside the same single physical host machine.
It is impossible to share the same virtual host-only network between different 
physical hosts, so the part of network is virtual and part is physical.

2. Virtualbox does not support virtual networks, distributed between several 
physical servers.

3. Virtualbox removes all VLAN tags for all the traffic, coming out from 
Virtualbox virtual networks to the physical networks.
These 3 Virtualbox limitations make completely impossible the scenario, where 
master node and controller are deployed as virtual machines on one physical 
server and compute node is deployed as bare-metal compute node on the second 
physical server.
Such setup is possible with QEMU/KVM, because of better VLAN support.
But this setup require sufficient quantity of physical network interfaces on 
the server, intended to host virtual machines with master node and controller.


You mentioned, you have only 2 physical servers under the hand.
Mirantis Openstack require at least 3 servers, one for master node, one for 
Openstack controller and one for Openstack compute.
However, for testing purpose it is possible to install master node to every 
cheap laptop or as virtual machine on a laptop, connected directly to the same 
network switch.
So, before I'll be able more specific, I would like to ask you kindly to 
describe in the following details all hardware you have got for the 
certification:
a) The number of physical servers you have for certification (I assume 2)
b) The number of network interfaces, available for tests on each physical 
server.
Having this information I'll be able to suggest more accurate 
test/certification setup.

Kind regards,
Miroslav

Hi,

We have two physical servers attached to Brocade VDX device. One is Fuel Master 
Node(already configured) and the second one is Compute Node.
We need guidance in configuring/setting up Compute node. Kindly let us know the 
configuration changes (config.sh), so that we will use second physical server 
as a compute node.

Our understanding is with the existing config.sh, on running launch.sh, Master 
node, controller node and compute nodes will again be created in second 
physical server as well whereas we required only Compute node to be installed 
in second server.

Thanks and Regards,
Gandhi Rajan
