2016-08-15 Thread Kostiantyn.Volenbovskyi
Hi, Just to add that this bug was recently brought up in openstack-dev [1] it sounds that you are waiting for fix via [2] or, probably more likely [3] Disabling DiskFilter sounds like OK workaround in case your VMs are never booted from image in your OpenStack Region(s). But if I understand

Hi, Cinder supports that from Kilo, but Nova needs to support that, [1] And you can see in blueprint progress won't happen even in Newton (=so Ocata is earliest) Also note that this will be Cinder-backend-specific, so you need to check when/if Cinder backend used by you will support it. BR,

Re: [Openstack-operators] Evacuate host with host ephemeral storage

Hi, option 1 (=that's what patches suggest) sounds totally fine. Option 3 > Allow block device mappings, when present, to mostly determine instance packing sounds like option 1+additional logic (=keyword 'mostly') I think I miss to understand the part of 'undermining the purpose of the

Hi folks, Some (/almost all?) of you have received email inviting to update the survey. I have went through user survey results of April 2016 [1] and have few comments/suggestions. 1. "What tools are used to deploy/configure OpenStack clusters?" I think here there is confusion between
