Re: [openstack-dev] Discussion about where to put database for bare-metal provisioning (review 10726)

 

Hi Michael,

Looking at line 203 in nova/scheduler/filter_scheduler.py, the target host in the cast call is weighted_host*.*host_state*.*host and not a service host. (My guess is this will likely require a fair number of changes in the scheduler area to change cast calls to target a service host instead of a compute node)

weighted_host.host_state.host still seems to be service['host']...
Please look at it again with me.

# First, HostStateManager.get_all_host_states:
# host_manager.py:264
        compute_nodes = db.compute_node_get_all(context)
        for compute in compute_nodes:
# service is from services table (joined-loaded with compute_nodes)
            service = compute['service']
            if not service:
                LOG.warn(_("No service for compute ID %s") % compute['id'])
                continue
            host = service['host']
            capabilities = self.service_states.get(host, None)
# go to HostState constructor:
# the 1st parameter 'host' is service['host']
            host_state = self.host_state_cls(host, topic,
                    capabilities=capabilities,
                    service=dict(service.iteritems()))

# host_manager.py:101
    def __init__(self, host, topic, capabilities=None, service=None):
        self.host = host
        self.topic = topic
# here, HostState.host is service['host']

Then, update_from_compute_node(compute) is called but it leaves self.host unchanged.
WeightedHost.host_state is this HostState. So, host at filter_scheduler.py:203 is service['host']. We can use existing code about RPC target. Do I miss something?

Thanks,
Arata

Looking at line 203 in nova/scheduler/filter_scheduler.py, the target host in the cast call is weighted_host*.*host_state*.*host and not a service host. (My guess is this will likely require a fair number of changes in the scheduler area to change cast calls to target a service host instead of a compute node)

I will defer to Vish here, but seems like a reasonable solution.

Again, I will defer to Vish, but seems like using the existing "hypervisor_hostname" would be correct (otherwise I have no idea what that field would have been intended for).
