Hi Nova/Neutron Folks,
Are we with an agreement on the Nova/Neutron related changes for addressing the
Live Migration issues.
We started this thread couple of weeks back and it went silent.
The discussion is still active and being discussed as part of the bug.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1456073
Please add in your comments if you have any issues or concerns.
Thanks
Swami

Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [Nova][Neutron] Live Migration Issues with L3/L2
Hi Oleg/Sean M Collins/Carl_baldwin/Kevin Benton/GaryK,
Here is my thought. I have updated the bug report with the details. But this is
for your information.
Oleg in my opinion, the right time to create the floatingip infrastructure
would be before the vm actually migrates and is planning to migrate.
1. If we get the "future_host" for migration information from the nova, we can
prepare the host for the fip migration - like
Create Router namespace
Create FIP namespace
Associate the Router and FIP Namespace.
I have made some headway with this on this patch.
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/259171/
2. In order for this to be there, we have to track the port with respect to the
"old_host", "cur_host" and "new_host" or "future_host".
For this I would suggest that we make changes to the port-binding table to
handle all "host" changes.
In this case the old_host and the cur_host can be the same. The new_host
denotes where the port is intended to move. Once we get this information, the
server can pre-populate the details and send it to the agent to create the fip
namespace.
In order to address this I have already created a patch.
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/259299/
3. The thing that we need more should we need to have a different type of
"event_notifier" such as "MIGRATE_START" or "MIGRATE_END" for the port, or else
are we going to make use of the same "UPDATE_PORT", "BEFORE_UPDATE" for this.
-- This should be considered.
4. With all this infrastructure, when "NOVA" provides us a notification before
"pre-migration" to setup the L3, then we can go ahead and create it.
5. If there are any other issues on the neutron side, we can notify 'NOVA" that
network-is-not-ready for migration and NOVA should take necessary action.
6. If everything is fine, we send a "OK" message, and NOVA will proceed with
the migration.
7. If NOVA errors out, it should send a reply back to us and about its state
and we should revert the state on our side.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks
Swami

I think it might be a bit early to start a cross-project discussion on this.
I'd suggest to first figure out what questions do we have, what would we like
to get from nova.
So I think it'd be more constructive if we first think on it within neutron
team.
I left some questions on the bug [1], please see comment #8

Hi Sean M. Collins,
Thanks for the information.
It would be great if we can bring in the right people from both sides to
discuss and solve this problem
Please let me know if you can pull in the right people from the nova side and I
can get the people from the neutron side.
Thanks
Swami

Cool. Brent and I are inter-project liaisons between Neutron and Nova, so let
us know what we can do to help raise awareness on both sides.
