Hi, Devstack is intended for development, so when you reboot it is not expecting to be able to preserve any information, and will give you a fresh environment to continue development on.
The XenServer devstack installation uses a separate VM, but devstack is automatically run at boot, as there is no information preserved. It should also delete any VMs that were running from the previous devstack run while it is starting up. 1) Unfortunately not; starting of the services is tightly coupled with the setup and there is an assumption that *anything* may have changed (from IPs to configuration in localrc) 2) Possibly; but my understanding is it would be quite tricky. Devstack assumes access to the Ubuntu repositories as well as various other sources for pip, URLs for images and probably others. I know that Mirantis OpenStack can work without internet access (https://www.mirantis.com/blog/using-fuel-control-repositories-openstack-deployment/) and there is a XenServer plugin for Fuel available from https://www.mirantis.com/products/openstack-drivers-and-plugins/fuel-plugins/ Check out https://www.citrix.com/blogs/2015/10/23/deploying-mirantis-openstack-on-a-single-xenserver/ for an easy guide to set this environment up on a single XenServer host, or https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/fuel-plugin-xenserver/plain/doc/user-guide.pdf?h=6.1 for the user guide Thanks, Bob From: Young Yang [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 23 November 2015 10:59 To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Subject: [openstack-dev] [devstack]Question about using Devstack Hi, I'm using devstack to deploy stable/Kilo in my Xenserver. I successfully deploy devstack. But I found that every time I restart it, devstack always run ./stack.sh to clear all my data and resintall all the components. So here comes the questions. 1) Can I stop devstack from reinstalling after rebooting and just use the openstack installed successfully last time. I've tried replacing the stack.sh with another blank shell script to stop it running. Then It didn't reinstall the services after rebooting. However, some services didn't start successfully. 2) I found that devstack will exit if it is unable to connect the Internet when rebooting. Is there any way I can reboot devstack successfully without connection to the Internet after I've install it successfully with connection to the Internet. Thanks in advance ! :)
