It's possible that I'm missing something here but I've not found a way to do this. This is a problem when scaling rabbitmq, for example. If I have a cell associated with a single rabbitmq instance and I want to scale to 2 rmq instances, then there needs to be a way to update the database for the cell. Running 'nova-manage cell_v2 create_cell --name cell1' twice, 1st time with the transport_url in nova.conf having one rmq server, and 2nd time with the transport_url in nova.conf having two rmq servers is successful. After this, there are two cell_mappings records for "cell1", and it appears that the first entry is what ends up being used for ensuing commands (ie. if I take the the original rmq out of active/active HA, I can't deploy an instance). Here's what the cell_mappings table looks like after the 2nd create_cell call: mysql> select * from cell_mappings; +---------------------+------------+----+--------------------------------------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | created_at | updated_at | id | uuid | name | transport_url | database_connection | +---------------------+------------+----+--------------------------------------+-------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 2017-02-14 21:06:49 | NULL | 1 | 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 | cell0 | none:/// | mysql://nova:7Jf4sgRNqbfzR8d3hxyWKYpzFfY6gK95@10.5.30.174/nova_cell0 | | 2017-02-14 21:06:56 | NULL | 2 | 1499460c-41f2-422d-b452-03b7995907c4 | cell1 | rabbit://nova:PtPFqF24ZxsB5GqCRN77Pbrp4h3cCYgJJ9XJwBThPhF2kz9M2Trbg8CSpFVcjY5L@10.5.30.169:/openstack | mysql://nova:7Jf4sgRNqbfzR8d3hxyWKYpzFfY6gK95@10.5.30.174/nova | | 2017-02-14 22:35:48 | NULL | 5 | 4b363076-7d89-451d-be99-057b0ad67e73 | cell1 | rabbit://nova:PtPFqF24ZxsB5GqCRN77Pbrp4h3cCYgJJ9XJwBThPhF2kz9M2Trbg8CSpFVcjY5L@10.5.30.169:,nova:PtPFqF24ZxsB5GqCRN77Pbrp4h3cCYgJJ9XJwBThPhF2kz9M2Trbg8CSpFVcjY5L@10.5.30.187:/openstack | mysql://nova:7Jf4sgRNqbfzR8d3hxyWKYpzFfY6gK95@10.5.30.174/nova | +---------------------+------------+----+--------------------------------------+---- It seems as if the 2nd cell_create call should update the original cell1 record, or there should be an cell_update subcommand.
