Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 13:58:22 UTC
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/rhev-m-ovirt-clusters-as-compute-resources.

Description:

© Copyright 2013 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.

This blueprint proposes customers who have RHEV-M/oVirt Management solutions in their data centers to make use of Cluster as an elastic compute pool in OpenStack.

The proposal is to have a nova compute proxy connects to a RHEV-M/oVirt through oVirt Rest APIs and expose configured clusters as a compute hosts.

• To allow a single RHEV-M/oVirt driver to model multiple Clusters in RHEV-M/oVirt as multiple nova-compute nodes.
• To allow the RHEV-M/oVirt driver to be configured to represent a set of clusters as compute nodes.
• To dynamically create / update / delete nova-compute nodes based on changes in RHEV-M/oVirt Clusters.

With this driver, there is no change expected in the scheduler. The RHEV-M templates which are available as glance images can be used to create instances.
