Re: [Openstack] Nova different sr

2012-11-09 Thread John Garbutt
Cinder is the way forward to look at exposing multiple volume types.

The Cinder guys should be able to help you with how to get that working:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/volume-type-scheduler

XCP NFS support should be in there soon too:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/xenapi-storage-manager-nfs

Let me know if you have specific requirements for some other type of SR.
I would be very interested in how we can help you get that working.

Cheers,
John

Good afternoon Armando,

Thanks a lot for you're answer.

Yes basically I want to setup a virtual housing service in the way you can 
create a machine in sas or sata storage for example. If each nova-compute 
should point to just one sr (storage kind) of xcp it would be one or the other 
one (in this example... sas or sata)... Ok then. So you mean the right way of 
doing this with Openstack is to basically have different nova-computes pointing 
to different sr and sharing the other properties... Have I understand properly??

That's not exactly what I meant, especially in relation to what is _right_ in 
OpenStack; I was providing input in relation to the use of the flag you

Ok so is not perhaps the right way but it's a possibility. #128515;





Actually, if you want to support storage at different levels of QoS, Cinder is 
another project worth looking at.

http://wiki.openstack.org/Cinder


I'll tale a look at it... Mainly if this gives me the possibilty...

In the last two paragraph I assume you're just talking about load balancing... 
Isn't it??

Where did you get that? No I wasn't ;)


Because you were talking about where to create vm and how to manage the

Hi,

If I understand your request correctly, say you have two storage backends with 
different QoS and you want to use both of them in your OpenStack/XCP 
deployment, what you can do is:

1) create SR1 for XCP1 that maps to storage array at QoS1
1a) configure the compute domU for XCP1 to point to SR1, by specifying 
sr_matching_filter in your nova.conf accordingly.
2) create SR2 for XCP2 that maps to storage array at QoS2
2a) configure the compute domU for XCP2 to point to SR2, by specifying 
sr_matching_filter in your nova.conf accordingly.

You can find more details here:

http://wiki.openstack.org/XenServer/NovaFlags

Obviously this can be extended to multiple nodes; then you can use the 
CLI/scheduler filters to redirect the create request to the right host.

That is one way, but there are a few others like  or compute extra capabilities 
(Essex) or general host aggregates (Folsom+)

Hope this helps,
Armando

My bad, I noticed you have some IBM arrays. What SR type are you using to 
connect to those?
I think Cinder has some code of some IBM arrays. If that connects with iSCSI, 
it should work with XCP.

 Obviously this can be extended to multiple nodes; then you can use the
 CLI/scheduler filters to redirect the create request to the right host.

 That is one way, but there are a few others like  or compute extra
 capabilities (Essex) or general host aggregates (Folsom+)

 Hope this helps,
 Armando

 Good afternoon Armando,
 
 Thanks a lot for you're answer. 
 
 Yes basically I want to setup a virtual housing service in the way you can 
 create a machine in sas or sata storage for example. If each nova-compute 
 should point to just one sr (storage kind) of xcp it would be one or the 
 other one (in this example... sas or sata)... Ok then. So you mean the right 
 way of doing this with Openstack is to basically have different 
 nova-computes pointing to different sr and sharing the other properties... 
 Have I understand properly??
 
 That's not exactly what I meant, especially in relation to what is _right_ in 
 OpenStack; I was providing input in relation to the use of the flag you 
 mentioned.

Ok so is not perhaps the right way but it's a possibility. 



 
 Actually, if you want to support storage at different levels of QoS, Cinder 
 is another project worth looking at.
 
 http://wiki.openstack.org/Cinder


I'll tale a look at it... Mainly if this gives me the possibilty...

 
 A.
  
 
 
 In the last two paragraph I assume you're just talking about load 
 balancing... Isn't it?? 
 
 Where did you get that? No I wasn't ;)


Because you were talking about where to create vm and how to manage the 
schwduler iirc 
  
 
 Very thankful for you're time.

 Hi,
 
 If I understand your request correctly, say you have two storage backends 
 with different QoS and you want to use both of them in your OpenStack/XCP 
 deployment, what you can do is:
 
 1) create SR1 for XCP1 that maps to storage array at QoS1
 1a) configure the compute domU for XCP1 to point to SR1, by specifying 
 sr_matching_filter in your nova.conf accordingly.
 2) create SR2 for XCP2 that maps to storage array at QoS2
 2a) configure the compute domU for XCP2 to point to SR2, by specifying 
 sr_matching_filter in your nova.conf accordingly.
 
 You can find more details here:
 
 http://wiki.openstack.org/XenServer/NovaFlags
 
 Obviously this can be extended to multiple nodes; then you can use the 
 CLI/scheduler filters to redirect the create request to the right host.
 
 That is one way, but there are a few others like  or compute extra 
 capabilities (Essex) or general host aggregates (Folsom+)
