So, how we do we configure these cells in devstack?

Let’s try to configure a cell environment with one parent and one child

We used two VMs with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS installed as parent and child for this

demo

Clone https://github.com/matiu2/devstack on both parent and child and

checkout “cell_support” branch

Open localrc under devstack folder and type in

below content..

MULTI_HOST=True

enable_service n-cell n-api-meta

disable_service n-cpu

…

Open /etc/nova/nova.conf and type in below

content..

[cells]

enable=True

name=parent

cell_type=api

On Parent..

Run ./stack.sh

Restart n-api and n-cell services

On Child..

Open localrc under devstack folder and type in below

content..

MULTI_HOST=True

enable_service n-cell

disable_service n-api

Run ./stack.sh

Open /etc/nova/nova.conf and type in below

content..

[DEFAULT]

quota_driver=nova.quota.NoopQuotaDriver

glance_api_server = <glance server running in parent>

[cells]

enable=True

name=child

cell_type=compute

Restart n-cpu, n-sch and n-cell services

Now we are done configuring both parent and child…

How do the parent and the child know about each other now?

On parent, we will run the command:

nova-manage cell create --name=child --cell_type=compute --

username=guest --password=password --hostname=<child ip> --

port=5672 --virtual_host=/ --woffset=1.0 --wscale=1.0

On the child, we will run the command:

nova-manage cell create –name=parent --cell_type=api --

username=guest --password=password --hostname=<parent ip> --

port=5672 --virtual_host=/ --woffset=1.0 --wscale=1.0

Let’s try to build an instance in this cell environment…
