The basic requirement we have for running multinode openstack tests is that
|
|
tempest must be able to ssh and ping the nested VMs booted by openstack and
|
|
these nested VMs need to be able to talk to each other. This is due to how
|
|
the tests are run by tempest.
|
|
|
|
We run devstack-gate on multiple public clouds. In order to meet the above
|
|
requirement we need some control over l2 and l3 networking in the test envs,
|
|
but not all of our clouds provide this control. To work around this we setup
|
|
overlay networks across the VMs using software bridges and tunnels between
|
|
the hosts. This provides routing for the floating IP network between tempest
|
|
and VMs and between VMs themselves.
|
|
|
|
To map against a real deployment the overlay networks would be the networking
|
|
provided by your datacenter for OpenStack and the existing eth0 for each test
|
|
node is a management interface or ILO. We just have to set up our own
|
|
datacenter networking because we are running in clouds.
|
|
|
|
Some useful IP ranges:
|
|
172.24.4.0/23 This is our "public" IP range. Test nodes get IPs in the first
|
|
half of this subnet.
|
|
172.24.5.0/24 This is our floating IP range. VMs get assigned floating IPs
|
|
from this range. The test nodes know how to "route" to these VMs due to the
|
|
interfaces on 172.24.4.0/23.
|
|
|
|
Now to network solution specifics. Nova network and neutron are different
|
|
enough that they deserve their own specific documentation below.

In addition to the requirement for floating IP connectivity above nova net
|
|
also requires that the the private network for the VMs be shared so that the
|
|
nested VMs can get access to nova services like dhcp and metadata. While not
|
|
strictly necessary when using nova net multihost we support both and this
|
|
allows nested VM to nested VM communication over private IP.
|
|
|
|
In this setup we have two soft bridges on the primary node (the controller).
|
|
The br_flat bridge handles the l2 traffic for the VMs private interfaces.
|
|
The br_pub bridge is where floating IPs are configured and allows for test
|
|
node to nested VM communication and nested VM to nested VM communication.
|
|
We cannot share the l2 bridge for separate l3 communication because nova net
|
|
uses ebtables to prevent public IPs from talking to private IPs and we lose
|
|
packets on a shared bridge as a result.
|
|
|
|
This is what it all looks like after you run devstack and boot some nodes.

Neutron
|
|
=======

|
|
|
Neutron is a bit different and comes in two flavors. The base case is
|
|
neutron without DVR. In this case all of the l3 networking runs on the
|
|
primary node. The other case is with DVR where each test node handles
|
|
l3 for the nested VMs running on that test node.
|
|
|
|
For the non DVR case we don't need to do anything special. Devstack and
|
|
neutron setup br-int between the nodes for us and all public floating
|
|
IP traffic is backhauled over br-int to the primary node where br-ex
|
|
exists. br-ex is created on the primary node as it is on the single node
|
|
tests and all tempest to floating IP and nested VM to nested VM communication
|
|
happens here.

|
|
The DVR case is a bit more complicated. Devstack and neutron still configure
|
|
br-int for us so we don't need two overlay networks like with nova net, but
|
|
do need an overlay for floating IP public networking due to our original
|
|
requirements. If floating IPs are configured on arbitrary test nodes we need
|
|
to know how to get packets to them.
|
|
|
|
Neutron uses br-ex for the floating IP network; unfortunately, Devstack and
|
|
neutron do not configure br-ex except for in the trivial detached from
|
|
everything case described earlier. This means we have to configure br-ex
|
|
ourselves and the simplest way to do that is to just make br-ex the overlay
|
|
itself. Doing this allows neutron to work properly with nested VMs talking
|
|
to nested VMs and it also allows the test nodes to talk to VMs over br-ex as
|
|
well.
|
|
|
|
This is what it all looks like after you run devstack and boot some nodes.

When DVR is enabled, agent_mode in l3_agent.ini for the primary node will be set to "dvr"
|
|
and "dvr_snat" for any remaining subnodes. DVR HA jobs need 3 node setup with this
|
|
configuration, where "dvr_snat" represents the network node with centralized SNAT,
|
|
and "dvr" represents compute nodes. There should be at least 2 "dvr_snat" nodes.
