I totally agree on this. It is important to know which components need
to be upgraded in a row and which are interoperable. Sometimes it is not
possible (or desirable) to upgrade the whole system at a time, but perform
several small upgrade steps.

I think a new release should contains details of how to do the upgrade
(rather than discovering as we try it)

I should aim that the deliverables for each of the projects in a new version
includes in the release notes:

A. dependencies (i.e. does glance folsom need to talk to horizon folsom or
can it also talk to horizon essex)
B. migration steps to move an instance to the latest version (i.e. how do I
get glance essex to glance horizon) 

Planning an production upgrade will be very time consuming if it requires
the person(s) to understand all the components in depth and derive the steps
from the bug fixes.

One of the items to review within the user/project feedback loop would be
how we validate for a release (I used to call this system test as opposed to
integration test, years ago). This would be the steps where we validate that
a release complies with a set of deployability criteria (such as migration
steps and documentation).

Would the upcoming Folsom release meet these criteria (A./B.) for each core
project ?

Tim

 It would be fascinating (for me at least :)) to know the upgrade process
you
 use - how many stages you use, do you have multiple regions and use
 one/some as canaries? Does the downtime required to do an upgrade affect
 you? Do you run skewed versions (e.g. folsom nova, essex glance) or do you
 do lock-step upgrades of all the components?
 
 For Launchpad we've been moving more and more to a model of permitting
 temporary skew so that we can do rolling upgrades of the component
 services. That seems in-principle doable here - and could make it easier
to
 smoothly transition between versions, at the cost of a
 (small) amount of attention to detail while writing changes to the various
apis.

Perhaps we should also have a CHANGELOG file to explain the major
features/changes...

Perhaps a 'MIGRATION' file as well that explains how to migrate from
version - 1?

I think that this would be a great start.

In the long term, I would like to be able to do rolling upgrades
across a system. It is important in the short term to understand
dependencies between components as it pertains to versioning; ie, is
it possible to run a folsom keystone with essex nova? Or could an
essex nova-compute interact with a folsom nova-api? What are the hard
and soft requirements for version mixing? I've had decent success
performing rolling upgrades between versions of nova-compute in terms
of the ubuntu maintenance releases of essex, but I suspect in general
this is way too high of a bar to expect for all components. Even
building a decent mental map of interdependencies would help a lot
when planning maintenance activities.

[Openstack] Migration of Single, Dual and Multi node

2012-04-26 Thread Nicolas Odermatt
Dear OpenStack Community,

 

is it possible to install a single-node environment and then later on
upgrade it to a dual-node environment and even continue to a multi node
environment ?

 

I know that it is possible to install all the openstack components (Nova,
Glance, Swift) on all nodesyou are using in your network but I'm a bit
unsure.

 

Does anyone know there I can find the answer to my question ?

 

Thanks for your help and have a nice day,

Nicolas

Yes , possible.

You need to have the respective components installed as  when you progress to 
dual/multi node  have the references(location of Glance/Swift store)  
corrected in nova.conf  respectively.


Thanks

hi:
   i have some question:
   nova-manage vm live-migration and block-migration all need the instances
is running,if the instance is down how can i migration the instance to

Hi,

instance's resize is something you can do on xenserver only.
I did test it succesfully on XenServer 5.6.
Live migration and block migration are KVM features:
http://wiki.openstack.org/ReleaseNotes/Diablo#Feature_Disparity_KVM_vs_XenServer

To properly setup XenServer you should follow this page:
http://wiki.openstack.org/XenServerDevelopment


Hope it helps
