Hi Adhi, Do you mean that you can’t run two VMs each with 8 vCPUs, or do you mean that you are trying to run one VM with more than 8 vCPUs? I believe that the cpu_allocation_ratio means that you can re-use each physical cpu (thread) up to 16 times with different VMs, but each VM is still restri

[Openstack] Unshelved instance not being assigned to the proper host

I have PCI passthrough enabled for some of my hypervisior hosts.  Initial scheduling for flavors that have the passthrough assigned works properly, i.e. instances are assigned to hypervisors with the resources and once the available pool of resources is consumed creation of new instances fails.

Hello Bernd, thank you for taking time in answering:) Unfortunately one of the problems in my configuration is that L3 is handled directly from ToR switches which do not support NAT, and as far as I understand NAT should happen at L3 router. So it's not really a matter of will , I actually can't

I don't know what works for you, and I am not really a practitioner, but here are a few suggestions. - openstack router set --enable-snat for a short window of time. Of course, that would give access to the entire internet and only limit the time. - Use egress rules in security groups, or FWaaS,

Hello All, I'm quite new at Openstack and I'm stil trying to figure out how things works or are supposed to work. This is the scenario. Let's imagine we've spun a new instance on a network which is not intended to reach or to be reached from an external network (absence of NAT support at L3 or

Hi Felix! I'm a PhD student at CTU FEE. My own topic was simulation of automatic scaling using both the event-driven approach and queue network modelling. The second part of the thesis was on the prediction of web server workload in time. If you wanted, you could continue and simulate some predi
