U probably want to start by looking @ http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/config-reference/content/section_compute-scheduler.html
The code is @ https://github.com/openstack/nova/tree/master/nova/scheduler Just fyi as long as u are talking about VM's the above will be correct, if u are talking about scheduling with other resources then this will be a bigger list of links ;-) From: Hammad Haleem <hammadhal...@gmail.com<mailto:hammadhal...@gmail.com>> Reply-To: "OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions)" <openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org>> Date: Monday, May 5, 2014 at 8:58 PM To: "openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org>" <openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org>> Subject: [openstack-dev] Algorithm for Virtual machine assignment. Hello Folks, This is Hammad, a Computer Science student from India. I was working on this project that aim to make VM assignment more efficient. By VM assigment, what I mean is, As soon as a request for new virtual machine creation comes to the Openstack platforms how the platform handles the request. How the framework decided on which physical machine a new virtual machne would be spinned off. I thought what would be the best place to ask about the feasiblity of any such implementations on the OpenStack mailing list. Also, it would be really helpful if someone could point me to any existing the code that deals with VM assignment, with in the openstack framework. -- [https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/images/cleardot.gif]Regards Hammad Haleem
