It all depends on how you want services scheduled. If you want to isolate (centralize) services you can. But if you don't care what services run on which nodes, you can have all your l3-agents run in dvr_snat mode. The dvr_snat mode l3-agent will be capable of hosting centralized/legacy routers, dvr routers, and centralized snat services.
Does this help?

Excuse my ignorance here, but I'm hearing that dvr l3 agent will run in two different modes - and that a typical deployment will want some running in each: in a scaled all-in-one setup - say 3 nodes, galera, rabbit, all our APIs, and nova-compute on each - would we then want to run *two* l3 agents (one in dvr-snat mode, one in dvr mode) on each node? Isn't it possible to avoid this and have just one l3 dvr mode ? -Rob -- Robert Collins <[email protected]> Distinguished Technologist HP Converged Cloud _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
