Comment on Deploying OpenStack using Docker containers with Hyper-V and Kolla by Dan Ardelean

In reply to Sri. Indeed, Cinder services images are not yet present on our Docker Hub. iscsid/tgtd are needed for iSCSI related operations and they work together with the LVM driver. Cinder service provisions logical volumes using the LVM driver and provides them to instances via iSCSI transport, more info here. Since you are on Ubuntu, it should have only deployed the tgtd container. Please check if it was indeed deployed. For the future please try to paste logs/traces on something like paste.openstack.com or paste.ubuntu.com. Thank you.

In reply to Dan Ardelean. Thanks, looking forward to it - I enabled them and chose LVM (which needs iscsid and tgtd - not sure why - probably defaults to LVM2) , created cinder-volumes but many iscsid and tgtd related docker pull / play failed due to the corresponding binaries missing in cloudbaseit namespace. I just tried patching all those to point to kolla namespace and then the script went further and still failed later on the iscsid process (error dump below) - probably I need to configure Ubuntu before running this script to support iscsid and tgtd. It became too late in the night.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/24372998/

In reply to Sri. Neither cinder-api or cinder-volume are not deployed in this scenario, but it can easily be done. Cinder-api can be deployed by enabling it from Kolla /etc/kolla/global.yml file. Cinder SMB driver can be manually installed and configured on the Windows host. We do plan to implement the automated deployment in the near future. Thank you.

Thank you for this and many other wonderful things in this site – this is the best for those having Windows development background. I have one question – if I need to enable cinder service – how do I do that?
Thanks again

In reply to Hugo. You already got where this is heading ;-) We're also very pleased with Kolla and considering that RDO gave us a lot of headache in v-magine, switching won't take long!

Easiest kolla install i have done so far, im surprised you are not using it for v-imagine, v-imagine install takes a hour instead of 20m that this took on my hyper-v host 🙂

In reply to rhonin.

Your wish will be granted soon! 🙂 Preliminary comparative ESXi tests have been done and a post is in the pipeline!

I would have liked to have seen VMWare included in the comparisons, however excellent work and information sharing… good to know stuff here. 🙂

Hi Will,

In the setup we described, the virtual machines need to be manually created and enlisted in MAAS. We didn’t list those steps as well, as the post was already quite long as is. You can find all the required information about using virtual machines in MAAS, here: https://maas.ubuntu.com/docs/nodes.html#virtual-machine-nodes
