Re: Per host floating ip

 

I have limited knowledge of OpenStack, but I host many servers with Hetzner and know their infrastructure well.

Since nova allows you to assign specific floating IPs to specific instances you could do the following.
Create a floating range include all of the IPs Hetzner has given you.
Then just associate the IP from the underlying host with a VM running on it that host using euca-associate-address.

Hey,

I would love to hear more on your setup at hetzner, I was looking to
setup openstack there myself, but I didn't see a solution for the per
server ip issue.
How many machines do you use?
How did you set it up?
Do you use only nova or swift too?

I would love to get more insight.

Thanks for taking the time
Cheers Michael

Hello guys, i've some servers at hetzner,
i've actually installed essex on those and they're working fine, the step i'm missing is that hetzner gives you additional ip fixed to one host or failover ip that i can move to one server to another with the api.
What i want is to assign floating ip to vm, depending on which host the vm is running or use a create hook to move the failover ip to the host which is running the vm. Is it possible in some way?
