Overview of this book

OpenStack Open Source software is one of the most used cloud infrastructures to support software development and big data analysis. It is developed by a thriving community of individual developers from around the globe and backed by most of the leading players in the cloud space today. It is simple to implement, massively scalable, and can store a large pool of data and networking resources. OpenStack has a strong ecosystem that helps you provision your cloud storage needs. Add OpenStack's enterprise features to reduce the cost of your business. This book will show you the steps to build up a private cloud environment. At the beginning, you'll discover the uses of cloud services such as the identity service, image service, and compute service. You'll dive into Neutron, the OpenStack Networking service, and get your hands dirty with configuring ML2, networks, routers, and Distributed Virtual Routers. You’ll then gather more expert knowledge on OpenStack cloud computing by managing your cloud's security and migration. After that, we delve in to OpenStack Object storage and how to manage servers and work with objects, cluster, and storage functionalities. Also, as you go deeper into the realm of OpenStack, you'll learn practical examples of Block storage, LBaaS, and FWaaS: installation and configuration covered ground up. Finally, you will learn OpenStack dashboard, Ansible and Foreman, Keystone, and other interesting topics.

Using live migration


OpenStack Nova supports live migration of VM-based instances between compute hosts. This is useful during maintenance and cluster balancing operations. To use live migration, you must first add a node to your Nova cluster.

Getting ready

Let’s assume that you have more than one host running the Nova Compute services, as described in the Configuring OpenStack Compute section. If that is not the case, you will need to configure a second host before continuing. The destination host also needs to be remotely accessible and have resources available to run the instance(s) that will be migrated.

Checking network connectivity

To successfully complete live migration, both hosts must be able to communicate with each other by hostname. You can validate this by logging in to each host and pinging the other:

$ ping compute-02
PING compute-02.book (192.168.100.203) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from compute-02.book (192.168.100.203): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=2.14 ms
64 bytes from compute...
