Hello, Julien,

Both should works, you can make one VNF being deployed into two OpenStack 
instances, or make two VNFs work in load-balancing mode.

Currently Tricircle support associating one VIP in two OpenStack instances 
(through allowed address pair), it's up to VNFs how to make use of the enabling 
networking capabilities by Tricircle.

Subject: Re: [opnfv-tech-discuss] VNF to demonstrate VNF high availability 
across VIM

Hi Joehuang,

It's amazing.

According to the content "show how a VNF can run in 2 OpenStack instances" and 
the link 
https://git.opnfv.org/multisite/tree/docs/requirements/VNF_high_availability_across_VIM.rst.
 I'm not sure that it is one VNF or two VNFs(active VNF + standby VNF) in the 
Demo.

If it is one VNF, is it possible:
1. Some VMs in active mode are in openstack1, and other VMs in active mode are 
in openstack2;
2. Can VMs working in load balance mode across openstack1 and openstack2?


BR,
Julien

Hello,

In multisite, we have one use cases ever discussed:

a VNF (telecom application) should, be able to realize high availability 
deployment across OpenStack instances.
For more detail of such an use cases, you can refer to 
https://git.opnfv.org/multisite/tree/docs/requirements/VNF_high_availability_across_VIM.rst

Now, it's time to bring it into reality.

After Tricircle provides cross OpenStack L2/L3 networking automation capability 
based on VxLAN, we'd like to have a demo in OPNFV Beijing summit to show how a 
VNF can run in 2 OpenStack instances and achieve high availability regardless 
how much nine, planned or unplanned downtime of an OpenStack cloud would be.

The VNF will work in cluster, active/active or active/standby mode, and it was 
deployed into two OpenStack instances, overlay VxLAN network will provide 
network plane for session/or other data replication between VNF parts, and also 
provide the VIP for VNF to provide service, if the VNF is running in 
active/standby, the standby VNF can take over the VIP and continue to provide 
service after the master or the openstack cloud is failed.

If you are interested in such an use case, please join us, help would be 
appreciated:

1. Provide or integrate sample VNF which is able to be deployed into multiple 
OpenStack instances to reach cloud level redundancy/failure escape.
2. Joint demo in Beijing OPNFV summit.
3. Build multi-site general infrastructure in E-release for CI/Functest/3rd 
party service, to provide general multi-region environment for services like 
Tricircle/Kingbird/Domino/Tacker which deal with multi-region functionalities.
