As of Ocata, the ceph key used to access a specific Cinder
Ceph backend must match the name of the key used by cinder,
with an appropriate secret configured for libvirt use with
the cephx key used by the cinder-ceph charm.
Add support for the new ceph-access relation to allow
nova-compute units to communicate with multiple ceph
backends using different cephx keys and user names.
The side effect of this change is that nova-compute will
have a key for use with its own ephemeral backend ceph
access, and a key for each cinder ceph backend configured
in the deployment.

Overview
This charm provides Nova Compute, the OpenStack compute service. It's target platform is Ubuntu (preferably LTS) + Openstack.
Usage
The following interfaces are provided:
-
cloud-compute - Used to relate (at least) with one or more of nova-cloud-controller, glance, ceph, cinder, mysql, ceilometer-agent, rabbitmq-server, neutron
-
nrpe-external-master - Used to generate Nagios checks.
Database
Nova compute only requires database access if using nova-network. If using Neutron, no direct database access is required and the shared-db relation need not be added.
Networking
This charm support nova-network (legacy) and Neutron networking.
Storage
This charm supports a number of different storage backends depending on your hypervisor type and storage relations.
NFV support
This charm (in conjunction with the nova-cloud-controller and neutron-api charms) supports use of nova-compute nodes configured for use in Telco NFV deployments; specifically the following configuration options (yaml excerpt):
nova-compute:
hugepages: 60%
vcpu-pin-set: "^0,^2"
reserved-host-memory: 1024
pci-passthrough-whitelist: {"vendor_id":"1137","product_id":"0071","address":"*:0a:00.*","physical_network":"physnet1"}
In this example, compute nodes will be configured with 60% of available RAM for hugepage use (decreasing memory fragmentation in virtual machines, improving performance), and Nova will be configured to reserve CPU cores 0 and 2 and 1024M of RAM for host usage and use the supplied PCI device whitelist as PCI devices that as consumable by virtual machines, including any mapping to underlying provider network names (used for SR-IOV VF/PF port scheduling with Nova and Neutron's SR-IOV support).
The vcpu-pin-set configuration option is a comma-separated list of physical CPU numbers that virtual CPUs can be allocated to by default. Each element should be either a single CPU number, a range of CPU numbers, or a caret followed by a CPU number to be excluded from a previous range. For example:
vcpu-pin-set: "4-12,^8,15"
The pci-passthrough-whitelist configuration must be specified as follows:
A JSON dictionary which describe a whitelisted PCI device. It should take the following format:
["device_id": "<id>",] ["product_id": "<id>",]
["address": "[[[[<domain>]:]<bus>]:][<slot>][.[<function>]]" |
"devname": "PCI Device Name",]
{"tag": "<tag_value>",}
where '[' indicates zero or one occurrences, '{' indicates zero or multiple occurrences, and '|' mutually exclusive options. Note that any missing fields are automatically wildcarded. Valid examples are:
pci-passthrough-whitelist: {"devname":"eth0", "physical_network":"physnet"}
pci-passthrough-whitelist: {"address":"*:0a:00.*"}
pci-passthrough-whitelist: {"address":":0a:00.", "physical_network":"physnet1"}
pci-passthrough-whitelist: {"vendor_id":"1137", "product_id":"0071"}
pci-passthrough-whitelist: {"vendor_id":"1137", "product_id":"0071", "address": "0000:0a:00.1", "physical_network":"physnet1"}
The following is invalid, as it specifies mutually exclusive options:
pci-passthrough-whitelist: {"devname":"eth0", "physical_network":"physnet", "address":"*:0a:00.*"}
A JSON list of JSON dictionaries corresponding to the above format. For example:
pci-passthrough-whitelist: [{"product_id":"0001", "vendor_id":"8086"}, {"product_id":"0002", "vendor_id":"8086"}]`
The OpenStack advanced networking documentation provides further details on whitelist configuration and how to create instances with Neutron ports wired to SR-IOV devices.
