++ to making hypervisor_hostname always unique,  being that we already make
this assumption all over the place.

Hi Kanagaraj,

Thanks for filing these bugs.  For the VMware driver we can use a combination 
of the vCenter uuid and the id of the cluster which is managed by Nova.  I have 
already posted some comments on your patch for this: 
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/99623/

I am also +1 for adding an unique constraint for the hypervisor_hostname column.

Thanks,
Rado

[openstack-dev] [nova] Set compute_node:hypervisor_nodename as unique and not null

2014-06-18 Thread Manickam, Kanagaraj
Hi,

This mail is regarding the required model change in nova. Please fine more 
details below:

As we knew, Nova db has the table "compute_nodes" for modelling the hypervisors 
and its using the "hypervisor_hostname" field to represent the hypervisor name.
This value is having significant value in os-hypervisor extension api which is 
using this field to uniquely identify the hypervisor.

Consider the case where a given environment is having more than one hypervisors 
(KVM, EXS, Xen, etc)  with same hostname and os-hypervisor and thereby Horizon 
Hypervisor panel and nova hypervisors-servers command will fail.
There is a defect (https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1329261)  already filed 
on VMware VC driver to address this issue to make sure that, a unique value is 
generated for the VC driver's hypervisor.  But its good to fix at the model 
level as well by  making "hypervisor_hostname" field as unique always. And a 
bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1329299 is filed for the same.

Before fixing this bug, I would like to get the opinion from the community. 
Could you please help here !

Kanagaraj M
