commit abe041ae1cc42d9a3ade187b7c930b7c6c3a9d5f Author: Matt Riedemann <[email protected]> Date: Fri Apr 5 17:04:59 2019 -0400 Document restrictions for moving servers between availability zones There was nothing clearly documented about move operations with respect to AZ restrictions, i.e. when a server can move between zones or not, and how forcing a target host during evacuate or live migration can break tracking of the instance for it's orginally intended zone. This adds documentation around that topic. Change-Id: I7466826780ea8a6b3d3df93f0e85f009a437b743 Closes-Bug: #1823043 ** Changed in: nova Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo! Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1823043 Title: Docs insufficiently clear on the intersection of availalability zones, force, and cold and live migrations Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Fix Released Bug description: It's hard to find a single place in the nova docs where the impact of availability zones (including default) on the capabilities of live or cold migrations is clear In https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/user/aggregates.html #availability-zones-azs is probably a good place to describe what's going on. Some of the rules are discussed in IRC at http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/irclogs/%23openstack-nova/%23openstack- nova.2019-04-03.log.html#t2019-04-03T15:22:39 The gist is that when a server is created, if it is created in an AZ (either an explicit one, or in the default 'nova' zone) it is required to stay in that AZ for all move operations unless there is a force, which can happen in a live migrate or evacuate. (Caveats abound in this area, see the IRC log for more discussion which may help to flavor the docs being created.) The reasoning for this, as far as I can tell, is that requesting an AZ is a part of the boot constraints and we don't want the moved server to be in violation of its own constraints.
