Public bug reported: Our environment requires stable IP addresses for LXC containers deployed to MAAS managed physical machines via juju.
We are smooshing OpenStack infrastructure components (glance, cinder, rabbitmq-server, swift-proxy, ...) to 3 units each on 3 physical hosts for HA. HA enabled services using the hacluster charm require that we specify a virtual IP via config, but the IP of an LXC container comes from a pool no matter if MAAS is used for DHCP/DNS management or not. MAC addresses are randomized by default as well, using /etc/lxc/default.conf on the host machine. I suggest allowing the MAC address to be pre-allocated via config, such that IP and hostname can be pre-allocated via DHCP/DNS as well.
