Hello,

Ad ... The networking in OpenStack in general works in such a way so that 
connections from VM are allowed to almost anywhere. )
IMO it is defined by user what networks are accessible from VM – i.e., there 
can be several ‚public networks‘
Ad There is difference in direction who initiates connection. In case of murano 
agent --> rabbit MQ is connection initiated from VM to openstack 
service(rabbit). In case of std.ssh mistral action is direction opposite from 
openstack service (mistral) to ssh server on VM.)
And In Murano production deployment we use separate MQ instance so that VMs 
have no access to OpenStack MQ.

Yes and no ☺ In case of SSH the direction is obvious – from Mistral to VM.
But in case of MQ it is nearly the same, but both VM and Mistral are accessing 
the MQ – so the direction is Mistral to MQ, and VM to MQ. In this case it is 
important on what network the MQ is running – is MQ running on VM (managed by 
nova), or on O~S node? In both cases we have to solve how neutron network will 
be available to O~S node:

·         MQ is on VM (managed by nova)

o   VM with Murano agent has to be on the same network, or via router as MQ

o   Mistral (and of course Murano engine) has to be configured to have access 
to VM with MQ e.g., via floating IP, or manually configured namespaces ?

·         MQ is on O~S node

o   VM with Murano agent has to be configured to access ‚public network‘ with MQ

o   Mistral and (Murano engine) will have access to MQ (as they are running 
with all O~S nodes)

Gosha) In production environment - do you have ‚management network‘ on which 
MQ, VMs-with-Murano-agent, and Murano-engine, Mistral are running ?

Anyway I like more idea of using MQ for execution of actions (such as ssh) 
instead of direct ssh.

            Radek

Connection direction here is important only in the frame of networking 
connectivity problem solving. The networking in OpenStack in general works in 
such a way so that connections from VM are allowed to almost anywhere. In 
Murano production deployment we use separate MQ instance so that VMs have no 
access to OpenStack MQ.
In the sense who initiates task execution it always a Murano service which 
publishes tasks (shell script + necessary files) in the MQ so that agent can 
pull them and execute.

one more note on that. There is difference in direction who initiates

VM to openstack service(rabbit). In case of std.ssh mistral action is direction 
opposite from openstack service (mistral) to ssh server on VM.

Hello,

I think that the generic question is - can be O~S services also accessible on 
Neutron networks, so VM (created by Nova) can access it? We (I and Filip) were 
discussing this today and we were not make a final decision.
Another example is Murano agent running on VMs - it connects to RabbitMQ which 
is also accessed by Murano engine....

Subject: [openstack-dev] [Murano] [Mistral] SSH workflow action

Hello

We are considering implementing  actions on services of a murano environment 
via mistral workflows. We are considering whether mistral std.ssh action could 
be used to run some command on an instance. Example of such action in murano 
could be restart action on Mysql DB service.
Mistral workflow would ssh to that instance running Mysql and run "service 
mysql restart". From my point of view trying to use SSH to access instances 
from mistral workflow is not good idea but I would like to confirm it.

The biggest problem I see there is openstack networking. Mistral service 
running on some openstack node would not be able to access instance via its 
fixed IP (e.g. 10.0.0.5) via SSH. Instance could accessed via ssh from 
namespace of its gateway router e.g. "ip netns exec qrouter-... ssh 
cirros@10.0.0.5<mailto:cirros@10.0.0.5>" but I think it is not good to rely on 
implementation detail of  neutron and use it. In multinode openstack deployment 
it could be even more complicated.

In other words I am asking whether we can use std.ssh mistral action to access 
instances via ssh on theirs fixed IPs? I think no but I would like to confirm 
it.

Thanks
Filip
