[Openstack] incremental backups when using ceph

2013-08-30 Thread Mark Chaney
Full disclosure, I have zero experience with openstack so far. If I am going to use a Ceph RBD cluster to store my guest instances, how should I be doing backups? 1) I would prefer them to be incremental so that a whole backup doesnt have to happen every night. 2) I would also like the

[Openstack] can instances be resized?

2013-08-30 Thread Mark Chaney
I am going to be hosting mainly Ubuntu, CentOS, and some Debian instances with my openstack cloud. Can instances be resized when it comes to their storage? Obviously not only does its disk need to be resized, but its FS as well. I am hoping openstack can take care of all of that. Thanks,

using cloud-initramfs-growroot might help you. This package adds functionality to an initramfs built by initramfs-tools. When installed, the initramfs will repartition a disk to make the root volume consume all space that follows it. On Fri, Aug 30, 2013 at 11:45 AM, Mark Chaney

That is correct, it does. Takes care of extending the rootfs of the instance according to the flavours (sizes of VM) that you are defining/modifying or using the pre-defined ones. See http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-ops/content/flavors.html On Fri, Aug 30, 2013 at 7:15 AM, Mark Chaney

Thanks for that tip and link. Can you only change flavors of an instance or can you granularly adjust an intense? If I cant,that means I have to make a flavor for every little custom difference to an existing flavor? On 2013-08-30 02:18, laclasse wrote: That is correct, it does. Takes care of

not dynamically no. You can launch new and additional instances of different flavours across the same cloud (scale out), but scale in the instances dynamically is not supported by default atm. On Fri, Aug 30, 2013 at 8:46 AM, Mark Chaney m...@lists.macscr.com wrote: Thanks for that tip and link.
