IBM PowerVM is a hypervisor that the POWER platform supports.
|
||||||
|
PowerVM admins can see benefits in their environments by making use of OpenStack.
|
||||||
|
The nova driver (along with a Neutron ML2 compatible agent and ceilometer
|
||||||
|
agent) will provide capability for admins of PowerVM to use OpenStack natively.
|
||||||
|
The PowerVM drivers are opensource and currently being worked in the StackForge
|
||||||
|
community.
|
||||||
|
For Nova, the PowerVM compute driver is on the openstack base incubation track.
|
||||||
|
For Neutron the driver will follow the BYOD model set forth in the Neutron extension
|
||||||
|
decomposition. There is a blueprint for supporting a PowerVM compute
|
||||||
|
inspector in Ceilometer at least for the L release.
|
||||||
|
In a later release it's been expressed that the Ceilometer compute notifications model may change.
|
||||||
|
For PowerVM systems this ML2 agent would replace the default openvswitch agent for compute nodes
|
||||||
|
with the PowerVM SEA ML2 agent.

This new change proposed will enable deployment and configuration of the
|
||||||
|
PowerVM Nova compute driver, Neutron ML2 agent and Ceilometer compute inspector.
|
||||||
|
Similar to VMWare, this is an addition to support another type of hypervisor.

Problem description
|
||||||
|
===================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Currently, cookbook-openstack-compute does not support the deployment and
|
||||||
|
configuration of the PowerVM Nova compute driver.
|
||||||
|
* Currently, cookbook-openstack-network does not support the deployment and
|
||||||
|
configuration of the PowerVM Neutron ML2 agent.
|
||||||
|
* Currently, cookbook-openstack-telemetry does not support the deployment and
|
||||||
|
configuration of the PowerVM Ceilometer compute inspector.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Proposed change
|
||||||
|
===============
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add support in cookbook-openstack-* cookbooks to configure the PowerVM Nova
|
||||||
|
compute driver, Neutron ML2 agent and Ceilometer compute inspector.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* A new configuration attribute will be added in order to deploy PowerVM drivers
|
||||||
|
* If the new attribute is enabled, it will auto set other attributes and
|
||||||
|
automatically include the PowerVM recipes
|
||||||
|
* By default, PowerVM drivers will be downloaded from source code on Stackforge
|
||||||
|
* A new configuration attribute will allow to download from either source code
|
||||||
|
or public package repository
|
||||||
|
* A new configuration attribute will allow to override the package repository url
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Alternatives
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* User manually downloads code from Stackforge and deploy/configure the PowerVM
|
||||||
|
Nova compute driver, Neutron ML2 agent and Ceilometer compute inspector.
|
||||||
|
* User extends the existing OpenStack Puppet modules to deploy and configure
|
||||||
|
the PowerVM Nova compute driver, Neutron ML2 agent and Ceilometer compute inspector.

Other deployer impact
|
||||||
|
---------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Deployment of PowerVM drivers has to be explicitly enabled
|
||||||
|
* As of now, we're considering the use of configuration attributes rather than
|
||||||
|
roles to deploy PowerVM drivers since its usage is not considered generic yet.
|
||||||
|
* The deployer will be able to deploy the PowerVM drivers from different sources
|
||||||
|
(github, public or private package repositories) by overidding
|
||||||
|
configuration attributes.
