Hi all, I'm a teacher at a sysadmin academy and we are planning to deploy a private cloud with OpenStack for educational/training purposes. We are currently selecting the optimal hardware configuration for our needs and I'm asking for some help to the list.
Using [1] as a reference, we are clear about hardware specifications of compute nodes (4 nodes with 2 processors), but we aren't about the best solution for node controller and optimal storage: Option 1: 1 server with 2 HD in RAID1 (nova controller, nova volume, glance, ...) + 1 SAN iSCSI Option 2: 1 server with 12 HD in RAID5/6 (nova controller, nova volume, glance, ...) We are excited about the possibilities that a private cloud brings to us and we don't want to fail in this critical step, so any help will be really appreciated.
