[HSC] - Booting Controller-1 over VLAN PXE
-
trying to leverage an Ironic network to boot StarlingX nodes.
-
Not sure that PXE boot can be done over a VLAN tagged network (at all).
§
Servers they are using support PXE booting over VLAN in the BIOS.
-
They can see the host in the host list and give it a personality, but then they get an error on the TFTP file
transfer
-
Please send the logs / error messages to the list so the Networking experts in StarlingX can wiegh in

[HSC] - Queries Related to Storage Node:
-
Can we integrate a pre-deployed Ceph storage cluster (already created by us) with the existing StarlingX Dedicated
Storage Model, rather than StarlingX deploying its own Storage nodes.
§
There used to be support in the pre-open source version of StarlingX to support
external Ceph clusters but we're not sure that support was released as open source.
§
We don't think it's feasible to support external storage clusters joining a
StarlingX storage cluster but it could be a new feature to support an external Ceph cluster for a future release.
-
Is it possible to have a storage network which is separate from mgmt+cluster networks? So that all the storage
traffic passes only through that network
§
This is also a feasible feature that was previously supported but then dropped
due to lack of user interest. It could be re-implemented in a future release
-
Is there a way to separate client traffic from Storage cluster traffic (running on Mgmt+Cluster Host NW) if
we enable Ceph Metadata server on Controller nodes?
-
What is the upgrade path in a Controller Storage Model :- Will storage data get lost or will it be preserved
while Upgrading?
§
There is no support in the StarlingX open source project for software upgrades.
There are commercial software providers who deliver and support software upgrades e.g. Wind River.
