A Blog of the ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences
In our previous blog post we described our experience enabling floating ips through modifications to nova python libraries in an Openstack Cells deployment using nova network. That solution was not robust enough and hence we had a go at installing neutron networking, although there is very little documentation specifically addressing Neutron and Cells. Neutron’s configuration […]
In our previous blog post we presented an overview of Nova Cells describing its architecture and how a basic configuration can be set up. After some further investigation it is clear why this is still considered experimental and unstable; some basic operations are not supported as yet e.g. floating ip association as well as inconsistencies […]
Openstack is generally well suited for typical use cases and there is hardly reasons to tinker with advance options and features available. Normally you would plan your public IP addresses usage and management well in advance, but if you are an experimental lab like ours, many a times things are handled in an ad-hoc manner. […]
