Hi all, I have been using the autoscaling HOT template and have been successful in running it. I do see number of VMs increasing and decreasing based on my scaling metrics. However, I do have one extra requirement, i.e deploy the VM on a different host.
The scenario being, if I have a VM1 running on a particular host1 and when comes a need to scale up based on the metrics, I want the new VM2 to be deployed on a different host i.e host2. Scheduler does provide a filter i.e DifferentHostFilter, where one can deploy an instance on a different host from a set of instances. However to provide this as a part of scheduler hint in the HOT template, one would need the UUID of previous spawned VM. Is there a way to get this data via the HOT template and also pass it as different_host hint for the new VM ? So, if I have 2 hosts and have my webserver VM1 running on the host1, ideally i would want VM2 webserver to be running on host2. Is there an elegant way to achieve this ? Please help!
