Is it possible to tie nova compute AZ to cinder AZ?
I have 2 x compute nodes that I am testing. Each one has its own cinder backend. In cinder I have created the 2x backends and set: backend 1: backend_availability_zone = test-cluster1
backend 2: backend_availability_zone = test-cluster2
In nova I have 2 x (availability zones) which are named the same as above in cinder. When I launch an instance I am getting an error that the backend AZ is not found.
What is missing from the above to achieve this?
Can you share the precise command for launching your instance and the precise error message?
Hi - nice to speak with you again :) I am using Horizon and the error is that no AZ is defined (because I have default_availability_zone = No-storage-zone-specified in cinder.conf). In Horizon I am only selecting the nova AZ. In Cinder I have "scheduler_default_filters = AvailabilityZoneFilter"
...and that cinder default filters is already the default
in horizon, i am just going and setting name of instance, network, flavour etc. I am not setting any metadata on instance create.
