High-availability for DHCP
==========================
This section describes how to use the agent management (alias agent) and
scheduler (alias agent_scheduler) extensions for DHCP agents
scalability and HA.
.. note::
Use the :command:`openstack extension list` command to check if these
extensions are enabled. Check ``agent`` and ``agent_scheduler``
are included in the output.

Demo setup
~~~~~~~~~~
.. figure:: figures/demo_multiple_dhcp_agents.png
There will be three hosts in the setup.
.. list-table::
:widths: 25 50
:header-rows: 1
* - Host
- Description
* - OpenStack controller host - controlnode
- Runs the Networking, Identity, and Compute services that are required
to deploy VMs. The node must have at least one network interface that
is connected to the Management Network. Note that ``nova-network`` should
not be running because it is replaced by Neutron.
* - HostA
- Runs ``nova-compute``, the Neutron L2 agent and DHCP agent
* - HostB
- Same as HostA
Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
**controlnode: neutron server**
#. Neutron configuration file ``/etc/neutron/neutron.conf``:
.. code-block:: ini
[DEFAULT]
core_plugin = linuxbridge

dhcp_agents_per_network = 1
.. note::
In the above configuration, we use ``dhcp_agents_per_network = 1``
for this demonstration. In usual deployments, we suggest setting
``dhcp_agents_per_network`` to more than one to match the number of
DHCP agents in your deployment.
See :ref:`conf-dhcp-agents-per-network`.

Prerequisites for demonstration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Admin role is required to use the agent management and scheduler extensions.
Ensure you run the following commands under a project with an admin role.
To experiment, you need VMs and a neutron network:
.. code-block:: console

Managing agents in neutron deployment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#. List all agents:
.. code-block:: console

+--------------------------------------+--------------------+-------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+
Every agent that supports these extensions will register itself with the
neutron server when it starts up.
The output shows information for four agents. The ``alive`` field shows
``True`` if the agent reported its state within the period defined by the
``agent_down_time`` option in the ``neutron.conf`` file. Otherwise the
``alive`` is ``False``.

#. Show agent details.
The :command:`openstack network agent show` command shows details for a
specified agent:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network agent show 2444c54d-0d28-460c-ab0f-cd1e6b5d3c7b

+---------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
In this output, ``last_heartbeat_at`` is the time on the neutron
server. You do not need to synchronize all agents to this time for this
extension to run correctly. ``configurations`` describes the static
configuration for the agent or run time data. This agent is a DHCP agent
and it hosts one network, one subnet, and three ports.
Different types of agents show different details. The following output
shows information for a Linux bridge agent:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network agent show 22467163-01ea-4231-ba45-3bd316f425e6

+---------------------+--------------------------------------+
The output shows ``bridge-mapping`` and the number of virtual network
devices on this L2 agent.
Managing assignment of networks to DHCP agent
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A single network can be assigned to more than one DHCP agents and
one DHCP agent can host more than one network.
You can add a network to a DHCP agent and remove one from it.
#. Default scheduling.
When you create a network with one port, the network will be scheduled to
an active DHCP agent. If many active DHCP agents are running, select one
randomly. You can design more sophisticated scheduling algorithms in the
same way as nova-schedule later on.
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network create net2
$ openstack subnet create --network net2 --subnet-range 198.51.100.0/24 subnet2
$ openstack port create port2 --network net2
$ openstack network agent list --network net2
+--------------------------------------+---------------+----------------+-------+
| ID | Host | Admin State Up | Alive |
+--------------------------------------+---------------+----------------+-------+
| 2444c54d-0d28-460c-ab0f-cd1e6b5d3c7b | HostA | UP | True |
+--------------------------------------+---------------+----------------+-------+
It is allocated to DHCP agent on HostA. If you want to validate the
behavior through the :command:`dnsmasq` command, you must create a subnet for
the network because the DHCP agent starts the dnsmasq service only if
there is a DHCP.
#. Assign a network to a given DHCP agent.
To add another DHCP agent to host the network, run this command:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network agent add network --dhcp \
55569f4e-6f31-41a6-be9d-526efce1f7fe net2
$ openstack network agent list --network net2
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+--------+
| ID | Host | Admin State Up | Alive |
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+--------+
| 2444c54d-0d28-460c-ab0f-cd1e6b5d3c7b | HostA | UP | True |
| 55569f4e-6f31-41a6-be9d-526efce1f7fe | HostB | UP | True |
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+--------+
Both DHCP agents host the ``net2`` network.
#. Remove a network from a specified DHCP agent.
This command is the sibling command for the previous one. Remove
``net2`` from the DHCP agent for HostA:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network agent remove network --dhcp \
2444c54d-0d28-460c-ab0f-cd1e6b5d3c7b net2
$ openstack network agent list --network net2
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+-------+
| ID | Host | Admin State Up | Alive |
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+-------+
| 55569f4e-6f31-41a6-be9d-526efce1f7fe | HostB | UP | True |
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+-------+
You can see that only the DHCP agent for HostB is hosting the ``net2``
network.
HA of DHCP agents
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Boot a VM on ``net2``. Let both DHCP agents host ``net2``. Fail the agents
in turn to see if the VM can still get the desired IP.
#. Boot a VM on ``net2``:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network list
+--------------------------------------+------+--------------------------------------+
| ID | Name | Subnets |
+--------------------------------------+------+--------------------------------------+

+--------------------------------------+-----------+--------+-------------------+---------+----------+
#. Make sure both DHCP agents hosting ``net2``:
Use the previous commands to assign the network to agents.
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network agent list --network net2
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+-------+
| ID | Host | Admin State Up | Alive |
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+-------+
| 2444c54d-0d28-460c-ab0f-cd1e6b5d3c7b | HostA | UP | True |
| 55569f4e-6f31-41a6-be9d-526efce1f7fe | HostB | UP | True |
+--------------------------------------+-------+----------------+-------+
To test the HA of DHCP agent:
#. Log in to the ``myserver4`` VM, and run ``udhcpc``, ``dhclient`` or
other DHCP client.
#. Stop the DHCP agent on HostA. Besides stopping the
``neutron-dhcp-agent`` binary, you must stop the ``dnsmasq`` processes.
#. Run a DHCP client in VM to see if it can get the wanted IP.
#. Stop the DHCP agent on HostB too.
#. Run ``udhcpc`` in the VM; it cannot get the wanted IP.
#. Start DHCP agent on HostB. The VM gets the wanted IP again.
Disabling and removing an agent
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An administrator might want to disable an agent if a system hardware or
software upgrade is planned. Some agents that support scheduling also
support disabling and enabling agents, such as L3 and DHCP agents. After
the agent is disabled, the scheduler does not schedule new resources to
the agent.
After the agent is disabled, you can safely remove the agent.
Even after disabling the agent, resources on the agent are kept assigned.
Ensure you remove the resources on the agent before you delete the agent.
Disable the DHCP agent on HostA before you stop it:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network agent set 2444c54d-0d28-460c-ab0f-cd1e6b5d3c7b --disable
$ openstack network agent list
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+-------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+
| ID | Agent Type | Host | Availability Zone | Alive | State | Binary |
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+-------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+
| 22467163-01ea-4231-ba45-3bd316f425e6 | Linux bridge agent | HostA | None | True | UP | neutron-linuxbridge-agent |
| 2444c54d-0d28-460c-ab0f-cd1e6b5d3c7b | DHCP agent | HostA | None | True | DOWN | neutron-dhcp-agent |
| 3066d20c-9f8f-440c-ae7c-a40ffb4256b6 | Linux bridge agent | HostB | nova | True | UP | neutron-linuxbridge-agent |
| 55569f4e-6f31-41a6-be9d-526efce1f7fe | DHCP agent | HostB | nova | True | UP | neutron-dhcp-agent |
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+-------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+
After you stop the DHCP agent on HostA, you can delete it by the following
command:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack network agent delete 2444c54d-0d28-460c-ab0f-cd1e6b5d3c7b
$ openstack network agent list
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+-------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+
| ID | Agent Type | Host | Availability Zone | Alive | State | Binary |
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+-------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+
| 22467163-01ea-4231-ba45-3bd316f425e6 | Linux bridge agent | HostA | None | True | UP | neutron-linuxbridge-agent |
| 3066d20c-9f8f-440c-ae7c-a40ffb4256b6 | Linux bridge agent | HostB | nova | True | UP | neutron-linuxbridge-agent |
| 55569f4e-6f31-41a6-be9d-526efce1f7fe | DHCP agent | HostB | nova | True | UP | neutron-dhcp-agent |
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+-------+-------------------+-------+-------+---------------------------+
After deletion, if you restart the DHCP agent, it appears on the agent
list again.
.. _conf-dhcp-agents-per-network:
Enabling DHCP high availability by default
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can control the default number of DHCP agents assigned to a network
by setting the following configuration option
in the file ``/etc/neutron/neutron.conf``.
.. code-block:: ini
