Re: [Starlingx-discuss] Containerizing the StarlingX Infrastructure
Folks: I captured notes from this morning's presentation: * Brent presented this chart package for Containerization of StarlingX Infrastructure: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Containerizing_StarlingX_Infrastructure * Some questions/answers that came up during the presentation: o Which configs will move to this containerized infrastructure? Answer: All configs will get the containerized configuration. o For 1 and 2 node configurations, CEPH will run on the controllers. o Where will RBD provisioner run? Answer: it will run in the cube space. o If trying to run an application, where will it run? Will it be possible to run apps in containers? Answer: Yes (Some limitations: eg: no high performance networking, multi-tenant limitation) o Containerized OpenStack services will require us to build our own docker images and those images will be CentOS based. o Can we generate these docker images using other O/S's? Answer: This will be a design consideration. o Will it be possible to put docker images on docker hub? Answer: Where to put the images will be looked at as part of one of the StoryBoards for this initiative. o Does the customer network share the same physical network with cluster? Answer: Networks may be physically the same but a different logical network will be used for the cluster. o Will software update change? Answer: Yes - we will be moving toward a k8s approach to update software/containers. o Can you provide some schedule info? Answer: Target is for the March release. Specs are expected to be out in the next 1-2 weeks. o If community folks are interested in participating please contact Brent or Frank. o In future, to containerize the flock will the decoupling of the flock need to be completed? Answer: No - there is no direct dependency on the decoupling work.

Hi Miller, Thanks for the minutes. I missed the sync and have a question as below. * If trying to run an application, where will it run? Will it be possible to run apps in containers? Answer: Yes (Some limitations: eg: no high performance networking, multi-tenant limitation) Does this limitation mean that we will not implement "privileged container", i.e., with full access to host, for nova-compute, libvirt, and Neutron agents being containerized?
