Increasing the RPC timeout should help. I have seen this problem in nova-network in the past. Vish suggestion sounds good.

Openstack needs a way to know the ip address assigned to a vm to do its listing properly. If you don't care about the api returning valid ips there is a possibility of using FlatNetworking (not FlatDHCP) to make nova stick the network into a bridge and not do any dhcp at all. You could then have an external server serving up dhcp ips. I suspect you will probably have to disable security groups completely using NoopFirewallDriver driver to get this to work. As to the reason dhcp-host is not working, I suspect is because we give dnsmasq an external hosts file so you probably would need the host directive there.

Re: [Openstack] Suggestions for shared-storage cluster file system
We have used Gluster for small deployments, but lately we have changed our mind. Basically we have bet on Gluster for 2013 because of: - 10GbE everywhere, and Gluster MUST run in 10GbE (or Infiniband) - 3.3 release fixes some issues when locking big files: Granular locking - libgfapi reborn, no more FUSE overhead - QEMU 1.3 comes with GlusterFS block driver http://raobharata.wordpress.com/2012/10/29/qemu-glusterfs-native-integration/ - Success cases everywhere Regarding our tests, NetApp and Nexenta outperforms Gluster, but let's say we now can live with this performance penalty because cost per bit and horizontal scalability are really good.

You can change the endpoint type in Horizon:
Modify this file:

and add (or edit) this property:
OPENSTACK_ENDPOINT_TYPE=endpoint_type
and endpoint_type can be internalURL, publicURL and adminURL, as usual.

If you want to change the folder where the nova instances are stored you have to modify the option in nova-compute.conf 'instances_path': If you look at that folder (/var/lib/nova/instances/ by default) you will see a structure like this: drwxrwxr-x 2 nova nova 73 Dec 4 12:16 _base drwxrwxr-x 2 nova nova5 Oct 16 13:34 instance-0002 ... drwxrwxr-x 2 nova nova5 Nov 26 17:38 instance-005c drwxrwxr-x 2 nova nova6 Dec 11 15:38 instance-0065 If you have a shared storage for that folder, then your fstab entry looks like this one: 10.15.100.3:/volumes/vol1/zone1/instances /var/lib/nova/instances nfs defaults 0 0 So, I think that it could be possible to implement something like 'storage domains', but tenant/project oriented.

Re: [Openstack] two or more NFS / gluster mounts
Hi John, Yes, that's a really good solution. It is exactly what the StackOps Enterprise Edition offers out of the box. It's a simpler alternative assuming you are big enough to have several clusters of compute nodes, and each cluster with different quality of service preassigned. And it works... if the scheduler function works. My proposal about a hierarchy of folders for shared storage comes from requirements of some customers that want to be able to control the IO on a tenant basis, and want to use very cheap scalable shared storage. Let's say that StackOps EE follows now a static approach, and we would like to have a dynamic one ;-) Cheers Diego -- Diego Parrilla http://www.stackops.com/*CEO* *www.stackops.com | * diego.parri...@stackops.com** | +34 649 94 43 29 | skype:diegoparrilla* * http://www.stackops.com/ * * On Thu, Dec 20, 2012 at 6:37 PM, John Griffith john.griff...@solidfire.comwrote: On Thu, Dec 20, 2012 at 9:37 AM, JuanFra Rodriguez Cardoso juanfra.rodriguez.card...@gmail.com wrote: Yes, I'm really agree with Diego.

Sorry for my off topic question, it's the first time I heard of swift storage servers running an ARM processor. I think ARM architectures can be an interesting alternative to replace classic computing servers, but swift storage nodes did not catch my attention as a valid alternative, until now. From my perspective, the savings in power consumption and real state in your datacenter are minimized if you load your servers with two dozen SATA disks (a typical swift node configuration) and a dual 10GbE connection, for example. May be there are benefits I'm not aware of, but I would really love to hear about them :-) Cheers Diego Enviado desde mi iPhone, perdona la brevedad El 27/10/2012, a las 02:26, Nathan Trueblood nat...@truebloodllc.com escribió: Hey folks- I'm trying to figure out what's going wrong with my Swift deployment on a small cluster of mini servers.

Re: [Openstack] Versioning for notification messages
If you are proposing a new interface to the existing notification system that could be stable enough to 'survive' multiple versions, then I agree. The trade-off is we will loose information of the payload, unless somebody out there have a magic solution for this (and probably the version number is part of the recipe). But I guess we need this interface. There was something on the table 2 or 3 summits ago but the notification system did not evolve a lot (something that surprises me because from the business perspective Activity auditing is a must-be feature of any IaaS platform). Talking about ceilometer, I think mixing notifications (activity) and usage (metrics) is not a good idea.

Putting a version number in the messages is easy, and should work fine. Of course it only really helps if someone writes clients that can deal with multiple versions, or at least give helpful error messages when they get an unexpected version. I think using separate topics for each version would be inefficient and error-prone. Inefficient because you'd have to send out multiples of each message, some of which would probably never be read. Obviously, if you're sending out N copies of each message then you expect only 1/N the queue performance. Worse, if you're sending out N copies of each message but only 1 of them is being consumed, your queue server is using a lot more memory than it needs to, to hold onto old messages that nobody needs.

It's in our immediate roadmap to use FC and iSCSI instead of NFS, but may be you can give a try to our NFS stuff until then ;-) Cheers -- Diego Parrilla http://www.stackops.com/*CEO* *www.stackops.com | * diego.parri...@stackops.com** | +34 649 94 43 29 | skype:diegoparrilla* * http://www.stackops.com/ * * On Wed, May 16, 2012 at 11:05 AM, Wolfgang Hennerbichler wolfgang.hennerbich...@risc-software.at wrote: dear openstack godfathers; I do plan to migrate from crappy vmware and some ibm based cloud stack to openstack and kvm. here's the thing: I am lucky enough to have decent hardware, all the compute nodes are interconnected via fibre channel. so I don't want and don't need iscsi. do you think I can make it with something like clvm?

Actually, in my group we're developing a single page application developed entirely in JavaScript, that widely supports Nova and Keystone APIs. This work is part of a European Project called FI-Ware (http://www.fi-ware.eu/), in which we are currently using Openstack APIs. We've modified Nova and Keystone installations by adding CORS support. We did it by implementing a kind of filter on their APIs. For doing this we used Adam's implementation (https://github.com/adrian/swift/tree/cors), and we adapted it to Nova and Keystone components. We also developed a JS library (http://ging.github.com/jstack/) that can be used by both web and Node.js applications, for example. This library aims to provide same functionalities as python-novaclient, adding support for Keystone API. And finally we are copying Openstack horizon functionality, using JS library and other frameworks such as jQuery and Backbone.js to implement the web application. This web application is an early-stage work, but we will probably publish it by the end of this week. I will let you know the github link. We didn't find much problems with CORS implementation and support in browsers. For the time being, according to our experiments, the only web browser that is not usable at all with this technology is Internet Explorer, but we have tried it in Google Chrome, Safari and Firefox as well and we didn't have any problems.

If you are running from a web browser, post requests to hosts or ports other than the origin are allowed, but the headers cannot be modified. This prevents the addition of the token from Keystone to provide single sign on. 2. There are various browser side technologies (JSONP, CORS) that get around this limitation, but they are typically not enabled, and can be considered security issues. While implementing these might require support from teh Openstack server, they are fundamentally browser decisions. This is inaccurate. JSONP is supported by all browsers since ~Netscape 4.0. CORS is supported by all modern browsers: IE 8, Firefox 3.5, Chrome 3, Safari 4 (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing#Browser_support ). Additionally, CORS support is not a browser decision - the server has to EXPLICITLY opt-in to support it. Obviously CORS support *can* be a security issue - that is why it is disabled unless the server enables it. I do not believe that CORS support adds any additional security issues above what the OpenStack APIs already face. Specially, the most common problem (CSRF) is not an issue here because the APIs are not authorised on a session basis. [snip] I've been working on Single Sign on Issues for another project for the past year and a half. Here's a couple things I've learned. Kerberos is designed to solve this problem. It has the benefit of being integrated into the browser. Where Kerberos fails is that: typically it only allows a single authentication provider (KDC in Kerberso speak) and it does not work well with Firewalls. The only crytographically secure way to authenticate on the web that can get around the firewall issue is Client side X509 certificates. This is the foundation for https://blueprints.launchpad.net/keystone/+spec/pki. This could, in theory, work in with OAuth, OpenID, or some other distributed authorization service, or we could embed the authorization information right into the Certitificate, which is what I suggest we do. To be clear, identity/authorisation is NOT the problem here. The OpenStack APIs work well for my use cases, once I work around the cross domain POST problem. However, I've also worked with SSO solutions. The simple truth is that client side certificates do not play well with the web - browser support ranges from non-existent (on some mobile platforms - see http://mobilitydojo.net/2010/12/28/client-certificate-support-across-mobile-platforms-a-summary/ ) to abysmal (there is a reason why many websites that use certificates end up using a Java applet), and their interaction with cross domain Javascript is unknown. Even if certificates did work for identification, CORS would still be needed - many OpenStack APIs

Re: [Openstack] OpenStack immaturity
Immaturity of a platform is something you can easily fix paying the right fee to your favorite analyst firm. Seriously, Openstack is an open platform and an open community. This means problems and issues are open to discuss to everyone. Propietary platforms issues are rarely disclosed, and they look more mature. And believe me, I have used most of them and Openstack is not more unstable (or stable) than others. Anyway, it's time to move the stack from 'devs' to 'ops'. When somebody says 'you have to install the development version to fix this' instead of 'you have to follow this procedure on the stable version', you cannot imagine the damage made to Openstack Nova. It's painful, but it's the only way to have a robust platform. Let's forget about 'you will have it in the next release': we are not Microsoft. This is real, not vapourware.

Re: [Openstack] Instance fails to spawn when instance_path is nfs mounted
We use nfs backed instances a lot, and this problem normally has to do with
wrong permission management in your filer and/or client.
Check if not only root can write on the nfs share (specially libvirt user).

Re: [Openstack] Specification of nova-diagnostics
I'm not familiar with nova-diagnostics, but we use collectd to gather information about each virtual machine running in KVM. We get information about cpu usage, memory, disk io, and network io per instance. Obviously it's not nicely integrated with nova commands, but it works in our deployments. And it comes in the distro by default. Let me know if I can help you in this blueprint: the only reason now in our distro to use collectd is kvm instances performance. If we can get from nova we should go that way in the future.

Re: [Openstack] Network Connectivity issue
Hi Nicolas, thanks for using our distro! Just to summarize: - Single node - Management network: 192.168.163.0/25 = 192.168.163.1 to 192.168.163.126. Let's assume gateway = 192.168.163.1 - Service Network: 192.168.163.128/25 = 192.168.163.129 to 192.168.163.254. gateway should be = 192.168.163.129 If you wan to ping from the service network to a host in the management network (and it's not the single node) you need a route to that network. Or you can configure your system to use the Management Network as the public network. Then you will reach your hosts. If you are using FlatDHCP, may be you can configure the smart installer to use as the service network a subset (not a subnet) of the management network. It's a dirty hack (I prefer to split networks always) we did in the past... For example if you want to setup a little lab in your lapto with the distro you can use this settings: - Single node - Management network: 192.168.10.0/24 (this is my network, use yours) - Service Network: 10.0.0.0/24 - Public Network (floating range): 192.168.10.64/28 (and of course I don't have any host in this subnet) With this configuration floating IPs will reach hosts in the management network.

I was also able to upload an image to glance and to start an instance using euca2ools. I authorized the necessary port for ssh, allowed icmp and then connected to the instance with ssh. Afterwards I checked the instance's connection to the internet, which was up and running. Now to my so called strange phenomenon: Although I am able to ping my stackops-node, public ip adresses (e.g 8.8.8.8) and in spite the fact that name resolving works as well, I can't ping a Client machine in my local area network. My stackops-node has the ip-address 192.168.163.20/25, the instance has the ip-address(192.168.163.130/25) and the client has the ip-address 192.168.163.5/25.

Re: [Openstack] Announcing StackTach ...
Great job Sandy, Correct me if I'm wrong, but you are using the events generated and described in the SystemUsage blueprint ( http://wiki.openstack.org/SystemUsageData). We are going to send a new blueprint (or I should say a part II of the existing blueprint) to extend the current implementation of System Usage notifications to cover more resources of Nova (volumes, floating ips, fixed networks, tenants, images...). Sounds to me like a good fit. We would like to contribute in Folsom developing these enhancements, and I think your stackstach tool will help a lot.

[Openstack] Fwd: NFS for nova-volume
Hi Salman,
you can checkout the directory in our stable/diablo branch in our repos in
GitHub:
https://github.com/StackOps/nova/commits/stable/diablo
You need to configure it as follows:
- NovaVolume nodes must have access to qemu-img executable. Otherwise it
won't be able to create the nodes.
- Share a filesystem for the volumes, for example /var/lib/nova/volumes
- in the configuration file of NovaVolume, you need to enter this flags:
flags.DEFINE_string('volumes_path', '/var/lib/nova/volumes', 'shared
directory for the volumes virtual disks')
flags.DEFINE_string('volumes_path_testfile', '%s/testfile' %
FLAGS.volumes_path, 'Test file to check if qemu-img works')
flags.DEFINE_string('volume_driver', 'nova.volume.nas.QEMUDriver', 'QEMU
Volumes driver')
We have an experimental release in our 0.4 version of the StackOps Distro
and in our Enterprise Distro, hopefully to release in the coming weeks.
Cheers
Diego

Re: [Openstack] Newby question
Hi Alexandre, you can build a simple SingleNode in Flat Network mode with our StackOps Distro: http://www.stackops.org Once you have installed and configured the Single Node, then you can go to /etc/nova/nova-controller.conf and you can find the configuration details. If you feel brave enough to try a multi node deployment, then the Stackops Distro will create a specific nova-network configuration file in /etc/nova/nova-network.conf Don't forget that starting from Diablo some network configuration stuff must be performed directly with nova-manage command.

Re: [Openstack] Newby question
Thank you for your nice words! Dual configuration is the most common configuration we use: you only need to be cautious about how to configure the different networks. Just some hints: 1) Leave the management network as simple as possible. 2) The service network (the one that connects all the virtual machines and nova-network) needs a dedicated NIC (or virtual NIC if you are deploying in a virtual lab with VMware for example) and must be connected to the same group of ports, all with a single VLAN statically assigned to these ports. It's important that nova-network and the virtual machines can see each other. 3) The public network (the one you will use for the floating IPs) cannot be shared with the service network at all. It can be shared with the management network, but normally you can't do real stuff. A good solution is to have a dedicated NIC connected to internet and configured with a public CIDR, or if you are in a corporate environment connect it to the corporate network. Probably you will have to statically assign the port of the switch to the VLAN of the corporate network. To be honest, most of the complains about the distro has to do with networking, and we can't do a lot about it. We normally try to explain that the single node deployment is like installing a MySQL server for development in 10 minutes -everybody can do it-, but configuring a MySQL server for production highly available is hard. Dual and Multi node deployments can be like deploying the production-ready MySQL: it's not a 10' tasks :-( Regards Diego -- Diego Parrilla http://www.stackops.com/*CEO* *www.stackops.com | * diego.parri...@stackops.com** | +34 649 94 43 29 | skype:diegoparrilla* * http://www.stackops.com/ * * ADVERTENCIA LEGAL Le informamos, como destinatario de este mensaje, que el correo electrónico y las comunicaciones por medio de Internet no permiten asegurar ni garantizar la confidencialidad de los mensajes transmitidos, así como tampoco su integridad o su correcta recepción, por lo que STACKOPS TECHNOLOGIES S.L. no asume responsabilidad alguna por tales circunstancias.

[Openstack] euca-bundle-instance error
Hi all,
we are testing the Cactus release of Openstack Nova and we tried to bundle a
Windows instance with 'euca-bundle-instance' as follows:
Client OS: Ubuntu Natty 64 bits
euca2ools and dependencies: what comes in Natty by default, main-31337
2009-04-04 (1.3.1, because 1.2 did not have euca-bundle-instance)
Windows image: 2008SR2 Datacenter Version 64 bit
The Nova deployment is based on 10.04 and Cactus (Stackops distro based).
When I try to execute:
root@i-113c:/home/ubuntu# euca-bundle-instance i-1136 -b bucket -p
acens -o ${EC2_ACCESS_KEY} -w ${EC2_SECRET_KEY}
I get this error:
EC2Connection instance has no attribute 'bundle_instance'
So I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or euca2ools does not support
instance bundling yet... Anybody can give me a hint? Is there another way to
bundle an image?
Regards
Diego

I will list them below, but I will also be sending out specific emails to get volunteers for individual topics. The information below is based on notes that I took during the various meetings. I attempted to collect as many of the action items related to Nova as possible. Unfortunately, I wasn't in all of the sessions, and I'm sure I missed a few things. If others have additions/changes, please feel free to contribute them. I will also be sending out a list of milestones and dates so everyone can attempt to coordinate their development cycles with the official Nova milestones. Vish Diablo Design Summit Notes and Actions (* represents blueprints that need to be made) Six-Month Release Cycle OpenStack will move to a six month release cycle Releases will adopt the NVIE model -- Separate QA branch with bugfixes only merged in Project PTLs responsible for creating and assigning a QA team to manage the QA branch for release Milestones Between the six-month releases, individual projects can manage their own cadence for releases Unless a project has a good reason to change, it should adopt the default of one month milestones Milestones are not supported releases, but should expose stable new functionality Milestones will be used to target features and help ease the project-management burden Shared Code and New Projects Volume and Network code will initially not be separated into separate projects DB and API for volume and network should be separated within NOVA (*) Clear high-level apis will be defined for these components so other projects can replace them Shared code will be moved into a subfolder in nova for a possible move into nova-common (*) Where applicable, libraries should be created for shared functionality (allows for external reuse) init/daemonization code from swift / glance will be moved

Re: [Openstack] Decoupling of Network and Compute services for the new Network Service design
I think we had this conversation before some weeks ago. From my perspective I think networking services are normally not considered as first class citizens of the 'Virtual Datacenter'. What Ishimoto-san describes is a Virtual Switch. But networking services in the day-in day-out operations include also DNS management, load balancers, firewalls, VPNs, netflow and others. And this is the main reason to decouple all these services from the Virtual Machine lifecycle: they are a lot of heterogenous network services and some make sense tied to the VM but others make sense tied to the Virtual Datacenter (let's call it the Openstack Project concept). The scheduler should handle the network services tied to the VM, but most of the network services are tied to a different kind of resource scheduler, the Virtual Datacenter resources scheduler. This is the orchestrator we are discussing in this thread. So before adding new virtual resources I think we need some kind of new Orchestrator/Resource scheduler that should handle dependencies between resources (a netflow listener needs a virtual Port of a virtual Switch to be allocated) and pluggable services. What I'm not sure about this kind of orchestration components is if they implement fixed or dynamic workflows. Fixed workflows reduce complexity a lot.

We need some sort of supervisor to tell the network to allocate the network before dispatching a message to compute. I see three possibilities (from easiest to hardest): 1. Make the call in /nova/compute/api.py (this code runs on the api host) 2. Make the call in the scheduler (the scheduler then becomes sort of a supervisor to make sure all setup occurs for a vm to launch) 3. Create a separate compute supervisor that is responsible for managing the calls to different components The easiest seems to be 1, but unfortunately it forces us to wait for the network allocation to finish before returning to the user which i dislike. I think ultimately 3 is probably the best solution, but for now I suggest 2 as a middle ground between easy and best.

That is, tasks that are done by the network service are executed at the time of VM instantiation, making the compute code dependent on the network service, and vice versa. This dependency seems undesirable to me as it adds restrictions to implementing 'pluggable' network services, which can vary, with many ways to implement them. Would anyone be opposed to completely separating out the network service logic from compute? I don't think it's too difficult to accomplish this, but to do so, it will require that the network service tasks, such as IP allocation, be executed by the user prior to instantiating the VM. In the new network design(from what I've read up so far), there are concepts of vNICs, and vPorts, where vNICs are network interfaces that are associated with the VMs, and vPorts are logical ports that vNICs are plugged into for network connectivity. If we are to decouple network and compute services, the steps required for FlatManager networking service would look something like: 1. Create ports for a network. Each port is associated with an IP address in this particular case, since it's an IP-based network. 2. Create a vNIC 3. Plug a vNIC into an avaiable vPort. In this case it just means mapping this vNIC to an unused IP address. 4. Start a VM with this vNIC. vNIC is already mapped to an IP address, so compute does not have

Projects are kind of like what we want an account to be, but there are some associations (like one project per network) which are not valid for our flat networking setup.

BTW, I think we did a good job in Abicloud about virtual disk formats and virtual images: http://abiquo.org/display/ABI16/Virtual+Images+Introduction Helpful link, thanks Diego :) Followup question, based partly on the table of supported disk formats: instead of the general VMDK as a disk format, should we have a more broken-down format for, say, sparse VMDK? In other words, how fine-grained should the metadata about an image in Glance be? Jay, I think VMDK subtypes are very relevant information and has to be indicated before a deployment. Just an example: if you try to deploy a streamOptimized or even some sparse formats directly to VMware ESXi they won't work, and troubleshooting for newbies can be complicated. I'm not very famliar with Glance yet. So may be some of my asumptions can sound stupid... I guess that one of the main purpose of Glance is to deal with Object Storage Services (Swift or S3 for example) because they are the best candidates to store virtual images. I think this is a 'necessary evil': such a big images must be stored somewhere. What I don't really get is how Glance is going to deal with all the different virtual images formats supported for the different hypervisors. I mean, who is going to convert from virtual image format X to the virtual image format needed by hypervisor Y? Is Glance responsible for this or the Compute Node? May be if you explain me a little bit how it will work I can be more helpful. I'm still with Austin and I will start to work on the Bexar branch very soon.

Is there a name for the .vmx + .vmdk combination (i.e. a normal VMware VM

Sorry for the probably ignorant question here (I'm pretty ignorant to
a lot of the virtualization details :( ). From Googling, it seems that
the VMX file is merely a configuration file fed to vmware along with a
VMDK when creating a virtual machine. Is this considered an appliance
format? Thanks in advance,

Jay, this makes a lot of sense. For disk formats I would suggest: VHD,
VDI, VMDK, RAW, QCOW2. For the appliance formats: OVF, OVA, AMI.
Conversion within Glance will need to be able to handle both disk image
conversion and appliance format conversion.

And I think we need to come to an agreement on the terms used here...
What is a type of virtual image? Do we mean a *disk* image format?
Do we mean a *metadata envelope* type (OVF, AMI, etc)? Do we mean some
type of system image or image part (kernel, ramdisk, etc)?
What Glance is serving/registering is really called a *virtual
appliance*, as described in this article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_appliance
Proposal:
Change the Image model to have these following fields, instead of the
existing type column:
disk_format -- choice between ('VHD', 'VDI', 'VMDK')
appliance_file_format -- choice between ('AMI','OVF')
Thoughts?

My 2 cents... We need to define a transport-neutral specification
that allows us to encapsulate and copy/move a variety of virtual image
formats, this should be based on OVF. The envelope can contain both the
actual image as well as any required meta-data.
The image elements specified are very AMI specific, we should
generalize to be able to indicate the type of virtual image (i.e. AMI,
VHD, etc.). A test for POC can be a service that takes the data in the
OVF or what is stored in Glance to convert between formats. If we do
this correctly all of the required data will be available at the
correct point in the flow.
Don't know if this is directly applicable to the discussion point
below, but it is important that we get the fundamental
design/architecture concepts in place moving forward.

What is the intended semantics of the Glance x-image-meta-type
header values
“raw” vs “machine”?
When we pulled the Image model from Nova into Glance, there was a
field image_type that was limited to the strings raw, machine,
kernel, and ramdisk.
I'm open to changing this or using something like a format field
(AMI vs OVF, etc..)
Thoughts?
