Removed docker references (the driver has been removed from nova). Update confilcting pages including tables to use xrefs instead. Add a rpc_all section to handle conflicts in the training-guides. Closes-Bug: #1291138 Closes-Bug: #1292612 Change-Id: I67ad31c3913cae4c2e9e3d2ce41302717af5d839

<title>Scheduling</title>
|
|
<para>Compute uses the <systemitem class="service"
|
|
>nova-scheduler</systemitem> service to determine how to
|
|
dispatch compute and volume requests. For example, the
|
|
<systemitem class="service">nova-scheduler</systemitem>
|
|
service determines which host a VM should launch on. The term
|
|
<firstterm>host</firstterm> in the context of filters
|
|
means a physical node that has a <systemitem class="service"
|
|
>nova-compute</systemitem> service running on it. You can
|
|
configure the scheduler through a variety of options.</para>
|
|
<para>Compute is configured with the following default scheduler

<para>The Filter Scheduler

(<literal>nova.scheduler.filter_scheduler.FilterScheduler</literal>)

<title>Filters</title>
|
|
<para>When the Filter Scheduler receives a request for a
|
|
resource, it first applies filters to determine which
|
|
hosts are eligible for consideration when dispatching a
|
|
resource. Filters are binary: either a host is accepted by
|
|
the filter, or it is rejected. Hosts that are accepted by
|
|
the filter are then processed by a different algorithm to
|
|
decide which hosts to use for that request, described in
|
|
the <link linkend="weights">Weights</link> section.

this filter, the requester must pass a scheduler hint,
|
|
using <literal>same_host</literal> as the key and a
|
|
list of instance uuids as the value. This filter is
|
|
the opposite of the
|
|
<literal>DifferentHostFilter</literal>. Using the

<command>nova</command> command-line tool, use the

<literal>--hint</literal> flag:</para>

To take advantage of this filter, the requester must
|
|
specify a range of valid IP address in CIDR format, by
|
|
passing two scheduler hints:</para>

|

<varlistentry>

<term><literal>build_near_host_ip</literal></term>
