THe compute node is a vm with 8GM ram, 3 cores and 250GB of disk. The image I want to use for instance is cirros using tiny flavor. So the issue isn't a lack of resources available.

/var/log/nova/nova-scheduler.log

I am not sure how to interpret the following line from nova-compute log on compute node

2016-12-09 23:34:21.397 13806 WARNING nova.compute.manager [-] While synchronizing instance power states, found 1 instances in the database and 0 instances on the hypervisor.

wow this error again try to change the hypervisor (from kvm to qemu) in the nova.conf file under /etc/nova [libvirt] virt_type =qemu then restart nova services

yas ( 2016-12-12 11:19:44 -0500 )edit

@yas already been done, I did that when deploying openstack in /etc/nova/nova-compute.conf on compute node. Since then ive restarted nova multiple times.

Please post your neutron logs.. This issue can be of neutron port binding issue.. Instance cant be able to create its port in your compute node..

vathanlal ( 2016-12-14 07:41:57 -0500 )edit

@vathanlal You were right, it had something to do with network ports. I still don't know why admin ports are down though.

The message means that this host was found not to correspond to the needs of the instance, then, at the next attempt to find a host for the same instance, the scheduler discarded the host because it was already found unsuitable.

Configure debug logging, so that the scheduler tells you which filter doesn't like this host.

It sounds that the building fails and then it goes for retry and fails again. Check nova-compute and Libvirt/QEMU stuff- log of nova-compute on your Compute Hosts and Libvirt/QEMU logs

volenbovsky ( 2016-12-10 08:32:14 -0500 )edit

I added the logs for nova-compute on compute node. I checked the Libvirt/qemu stuff using the openstack documentation and it looks fine.

Hmmm, 1) Search for "nova.scheduler.filters.retry_filter" in this site/Google and check if anything applies to you 2) Use --availability-zone , availability zone and Compute Host (like --availability-zone nova:compute) to avoid the scheduler altogether. That likely will reveal something else

So I am able to launch instances on demo account but not admin. For the demo account network, all the ports are up, but for admin all the ports are down.

Does anyone know why the admin network ports are down?

How did you create your private network?? by sourcing demo credential or admin credentials?? Which release of Openstack you are using??

@vathanlal deployed juno using the network setup instructions in juno ubuntu guide
