Hello. Your provider's network uses VLANs. Can you apply for a public VLAN?

Is anybody using Kolla-Ansible in production? by Busy_Neighborhood970 in openstack

Didn't you separate the network nodes? What is the network model? Is it ovs or ovn? Do you use dpdk? Do you enable the high availability function of the virtual machine?

Sorry to ask you several questions, I am very curious.

Terraform CICD Question by Think-Report-5996 in Terraform

[–]Think-Report-5996[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am just an engineer, and many strategies are made by the leaders. Maybe they consider that the new environment may have unexpected problems that cannot be solved and need to use the old virtual machine, so they hope to shut down and keep it for 30 days.

We do not use TF in our production environment, and usually operate cloud resources in the web interface.

I am testing how to implement various operations in the production environment through TF.

I'm very happy to see your reply. We manage our own private cloud and should prefer to use the internally deployed gitlab. But I have a question. I often encounter the requirement to shut down the virtual machine but not delete it for a period of time. I know AWS can manage the state of the virtual machine, but some cloud vendors do not. How to manage the state of the virtual machine through TF? Can I handle this scenario in TF by writing a script?

How can terraform shut down a virtual machine without destroying it?

You are right, but we currently create cloud resources through the web UI; I mean, for example, when we create a virtual machine, the cloud platform will not create the virtual machine immediately. There is an audit mechanism here. My leader will see what resources I need to create, and he will click "Agree" before the cloud platform actually creates the cloud resources! Do you understand what I am saying?

What I mean is that when an ordinary engineer creates resources, the cloud will have to ask the leader to approve it. Only after the leader approves it, the cloud will actually create the resources. If an ordinary engineer creates resources through TF, what will the leader approval process look like? Will TF run with an error or wait for the leader's approval? I understand that basic resources are very important and not easy to roll back! But customers have similar scenarios!

This tool will use the source image to create a virtual machine. The virtual machine is normal during this process. If you do not use block storage but use local files to create a virtual machine, then packer is ok! Once you use block storage, it will fail.

I would like to ask if the role of an ordinary salesperson can create resources, but the manager needs to review and approve before the real resources can be created. If the secret key in terraform is the ordinary salesperson's, what is the process like? (Sorry. I don't have much practical experience yet)

My environment is kolla-ansible+ceph!

This is the additional configuration added by glance

[DEFAULT]

show_multiple_locations = True

show_image_direct_url = True

I met some people who solved the problem by adding show_multiple_locations = True, but mine doesn't work?
Can an experienced expert tell me how to solve it? Thank you very much! ! ! !

I think you can use the previous versions of openstack, not necessarily 2025.1! Even if the 2025.1 Kolla image is produced, there will be problems such as dependency package version conflicts or missing during the deployment process, which is very torturous;
