Hi Anirudh,

What is the purpose or benefit you want to have 2 active controller?

I think it is reasonable there is 1 active controller only, and another controller is standby for backup, this is the meaning of HA.

Two active controller at the same time will cause brain split.

What do you mean “Openstack Services”? Openstack is containerized now, and run in both nodes by K8S.

Hi Shuicheng,

 

All the services on the Active Controller are “enabled-active” and I can see some services “enabled-standby” on the standby controller.

 

Is there any way we can set all the Openstack Services “enabled-active” on both the Active and Standby Node?

 

Regards

Hi Anirudh,

Per my understanding, for duplex, there is always 1 active node and 1 standby node.

The active/active” or “active/standby” in the document is for “services”, not for node.

If you try to run “sudo sm-dump” in the standby node, you will find some services are “active”, while some services are “standby”.

 

For the 2nd question, VMs are running in compute node. And for duplex, both controller nodes are compute nodes also.

And the “Active/Standby” is for controller, not for compute function, that is why VMs will run in both node.

 

Best Regards

Shuicheng
