Description

In order to support multi-host environment when a VLAN is not available (A scenario where each host has an individual subnet)

History

#1 Updated by Jonathan Philipos about 5 years ago

Currently we have a template that we would like to add specific hosts to it, however since each host has it's own VNET we cannot specify/link the VNET to the Host in order to avoid deploying a VM inside a host with a vnet that isn't configured with that host.

In order to fix this, being able to assign a 'VNET' -> 'HOST' will allow us to select all the relevant hosts/vnets and OpenNebula deploys the VM in a host with an assigned network to that host.

Does OpenNebula currently support this scenario? If not - can we add this support?

Seems like you can assign Clusters to VNET's - but you cannot assign hosts to clusters. Can we support that in case each host is independent.

Hi

A cluster is a set of hosts, vnets and datastores that can work together. Regarding your question:

1.- In 5.0 we have included multi-cluster support for VNETs
2- Network driver has been moved to the VirtualNetwork, so each VNET can be implemented with a different driver.

For OpenNebula 4.14 maybe you can use the cluster concept and the VLAN attribute, so a VNET with VLAN=NO will not implement any VLAN although the host has a vlan driver.

I'm closing this because it seems we have all the features needed, will reopen if needed.
