I've started an etherpad for the forum session in Vancouver devoted to discussing the possibility of tracking and allocation resources in Cinder using the Placement service. This is not a done deal. Instead the session is to discuss if it could work and how to make it happen if it seems like a good idea.The etherpad is at https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/YVR-cinder-placement
The session went well. Some of the members of the cinder team who might have had more questions had not been able to be at summit so we were unable to get their input. We clarified some of the things that cinder wants to be able to accomplish (run multiple schedulers in active-active and avoid race conditions) and the fact that this is what placement is built for. We also made it clear that placement itself can be highly available (and scalable) because of its nature as a dead-simple web app over a database. The next steps are for the cinder team to talk amongst themselves and socialize the capabilities of placement (with the help of placement people) and see if it will be suitable. It is unlikely there will be much visible progress in this area before Stein. See the etherpad for a bit more detail. -- Chris Dent ٩◔̯◔۶ https://anticdent.org/ freenode: cdent tw: @anticdent
