Tags

~~~~
|
|
|
|
This role supports two tags: ``nova-install`` and ``nova-config``
|
|
|
|
The ``nova-install`` tag can be used to install and upgrade.
|
|
|
|
The ``nova-config`` tag can be used to manage configuration.
|
|
|
|
CPU platform compatibility
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
This role supports multiple CPU architecture types. At least one repo_build
|
|
node must exist for each CPU type that is in use in the deployment.
|
|
|
|
Currently supported CPU architectures:
|
|
- x86_64 / amd64
|
|
- ppc64le
|
|
|
|
At this time, ppc64le is only supported for the Compute node type. It can not
|
|
be used to manage the OpenStack-Ansible management nodes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compute driver compatibility
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
This role supports multiple nova compute driver types. The following
|
|
compute drivers are supported:
|
|
|
|
- libvirt (default)
|
|
- ironic
|
|
- lxd (via nova-lxd)
|
|
- powervm (via nova-powervm)
|
|
|
|
The driver type is automatically detected by the OpenStack Ansible Nova role
|
|
for the following compute driver types:
|
|
|
|
- libvirt (kvm / qemu)
|
|
- powervm
|
|
|
|
Any mix and match of compute node types can be used for those platforms,
|
|
except for ironic.
|
|
|
|
If using the lxd driver, the compute type must be specified using the
|
|
``nova_virt_type`` variable.
|
|
|
|
The ``nova_virt_type`` may be set in
|
|
``/etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml``, for example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: shell-session
|
|
|
|
nova_virt_type: lxd
|
|
|
|
You can set ``nova_virt_type`` per host by using ``host_vars`` in
|
|
``/etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml``. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: shell-session
|
|
|
|
compute_hosts:
|
|
aio1:
|
|
ip: 172.29.236.100
|
|
host_vars:
|
|
nova_virt_type: lxd
|
|
|
|
If ``nova_virt_type`` is set in ``/etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml``,
|
|
all nodes in the deployment are set to that hypervisor type. Setting
|
|
``nova_virt_type`` in both ``/etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml`` and
|
|
``/etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml`` will always result in the
|
|
value specified in ``/etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml`` being set on
|
|
all hosts.
