Re: [Openstack-operators] [openstack-operators] [nova] cloud.cfg not applied

Are you starting the file with "#cloud-config"? AFAIK, cloud-init uses the first line to decide how to process the file (e.g. if it starts with a shell shebang it will treat it as a shell script, #cloud-config will cause it to process it as cloud-init YAML, and so forth). I am not sure if it

Re: [Openstack-operators] Memory usage of guest vms, ballooning and nova

What sort of memory overcommit value are you running Nova with? The scheduler looks at an instance's reservation rather than how much memory is actually being used by QEMU when making a decision, as far as I'm aware (but please correct me if I am wrong on this point). If the HV has 128GB of

I recall encountering something like this once when an instance termination failed halfway through - the root disk was removed but the instance record remained in the database. In my case, it didn't spontaneously happen, but was a requested termination that blew up at some point between

[Openstack-operators] libvirt freezing when loading Nova instance nwfilters

I recently witnessed a strange issue with libvirt when upgrading one of our clusters from Kilo to Liberty. I'm not really looking for a specific diagnosis here because of the large number of confounding factors and the relative ease of remediating it, but I'm interested to hear if anyone else

[Openstack-operators] Delegating quota management for all projects to a user without the admin role?

I'm looking for a way to allow a user that does not have the admin role to be able to view and set quota (both Nova/Cinder) for all projects in an OpenStack cluster. For us, the boundary of a Keystone region is coterminous with an OpenStack cluster - we don't currently use any sort of federated

Re: [Openstack-operators] Managing quota for Nova local storage?

We didn't come up with one. RAM on our HVs is the limiting factor since we don't run with memory overcommit, so the ability of people to run an HV out of disk space ended up being moot. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Long term we would like to switch to being exclusively RBD-backed and get rid of local storage
