Re: Instance can't get metadata

 

Hi Vish,

Thanks for your fast answer.
I tried these options on all nodes, but it didn't seems to work (connection refused again). I have googled a bit more, and I saw I can load nova-api on each compute nodes, with only the metadata service (--enabled_apis=metadata).
This setup works well and enable HA for api so it can be a good solution.
Thanks for the help and sorry for not googling enough before asking ;)

And about nova.conf format, should I prefix options or not ?

Hi the list,

I had issues with nova-scheduler, but after upgrading ubuntu packages, the problem have disapeared.

Now, I have another well know problem : on a multinode setup, I have a connection refused when the instance tries to get metadata from nova-api :

2012-08-29 22:00:05,968 - util.py[WARNING]: 'http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/instance-id' failed [0/120s]: url error [[Errno 111] Connection refused]

If I watch to iptables, I can see that 169.254.169.254 is rerouted to itself (.52, the compute node) instead of the controller node (.50)

# iptables -t nat -L -v | grep -n3 169.254.169.254

45-Chain nova-network-PREROUTING (1 references)
46- pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source destination
47:   17  1020 DNAT       tcp  --  any    any     anywhere 169.254.169.254      tcp dpt:http to:94.xx.xx.52:8775

I tried these option in nova.conf but it didn't solved the problem
--dmz_cidr=94.xx.xx.50/32
--ec2_dmz_host=94.xx.xx.50

How can I force nova-compute to reroute the metadata request on the controller node instead of itself ?

Another non-related question : my nova.conf have its options prefixed with -- (example --multi_host=true)
I saw some nova.conf with no prefix, just the name of the option (example multi_host=true).
What is the good format ?


Thank you,

Ben
