[openstack-dev] [VMware][nova][cinder]an issue about single point of failure

2014-10-08 Thread LiuJeremy

Hi,

I have an issue about single point of failure in OpenStack+VMware scenario.
If one nova-compute or cinder-volume crush. The VCenter which connect to
the nova-compute or cinder-volume will unavailable.

I think we can deploy the nova-compute/cinder-volume to a VM which have the HA
(High Available) capacity.

What do you think about the above solution? And could you provide another 
solution,
especially in physical deployment scenario (deploy the 
nova-compute/cinder-volume
in a physical host)?

Thanks,

Jeremy Liu

Work is underway in cinder to allow active/active HA (or
active/active/active/... for the truly paranoid) volume managers for a
single backend, for remote backends that can support it. This is
likely to take most of the Kilo cycle to finish.

You can use pacemaker or other H/A technology (I suspect some sort of
monitored VM is the VMWare equivalent) to improve the availability of
cinder-volume in the current release.
