Create and manage host aggregates
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
Host aggregates enable administrative users to assign key-value pairs to
|
|
groups of machines.
|
|
|
|
Each node can have multiple aggregates and each aggregate can have
|
|
multiple key-value pairs. You can assign the same key-value pair to
|
|
multiple aggregates.
|
|
|
|
The scheduler uses this information to make scheduling decisions.
|
|
For information, see
|
|
`Scheduling <http://docs.openstack.org/newton/config-reference/compute/scheduler.html>`__.

To create a host aggregate
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
#. Log in to the Dashboard and select the :guilabel:`admin` project
|
|
from the drop-down list.
|
|
|
|
#. On the :guilabel:`Admin` tab, open the :guilabel:`System` tab and click
|
|
the :guilabel:`Host Aggregates` category.
|
|
|
|
#. Click :guilabel:`Create Host Aggregate`.
|
|
|
|
#. In the :guilabel:`Create Host Aggregate` dialog box, enter or select the
|
|
following values on the :guilabel:`Host Aggregate Information` tab:
|
|
|
|
- :guilabel:`Name`: The host aggregate name.
|
|
|
|
- :guilabel:`Availability Zone`: The cloud provider defines the default
|
|
availability zone, such as ``us-west``, ``apac-south``, or
|
|
``nova``. You can target the host aggregate, as follows:
|
|
|
|
- When the host aggregate is exposed as an availability zone,
|
|
select the availability zone when you launch an instance.
|
|
|
|
- When the host aggregate is not exposed as an availability zone,
|
|
select a flavor and its extra specs to target the host
|
|
aggregate.
|
|
|
|
#. Assign hosts to the aggregate using the :guilabel:`Manage Hosts within
|
|
Aggregate` tab in the same dialog box.
|
|
|
|
To assign a host to the aggregate, click **+** for the host. The host
|
|
moves from the :guilabel:`All available hosts` list to the
|
|
:guilabel:`Selected hosts` list.
|
|
|
|
You can add one host to one or more aggregates. To add a host to an
|
|
existing aggregate, edit the aggregate.
|
|
|
|
To manage host aggregates
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
#. Select the :guilabel:`admin` project from the drop-down list at the top
|
|
of the page.
|
|
|
|
#. On the :guilabel:`Admin` tab, open the :guilabel:`System` tab and click
|
|
the :guilabel:`Host Aggregates` category.
|
|
|
|

|
|
to edit. Click :guilabel:`Edit Host Aggregate`.
|
|
|
|
In the :guilabel:`Edit Host Aggregate` dialog box, you can change the
|
|
name and availability zone for the aggregate.
|
|
|
|
- To manage hosts, locate the host aggregate that you want to edit
|
|
in the table. Click :guilabel:`More` and select :guilabel:`Manage Hosts`.
|
|
|
|
In the :guilabel:`Add/Remove Hosts to Aggregate` dialog box,
|
|
click **+** to assign a host to an aggregate. Click **-** to
|
|
remove a host that is assigned to an aggregate.
|
|
|
|
- To delete host aggregates, locate the host aggregate that you want
|
|
to edit in the table. Click :guilabel:`More` and select
|
|
:guilabel:`Delete Host Aggregate`.
