To better support HA with qpid, we need to backport the following patch: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/17046/2/openstack/common/rpc/impl_qpid.py The patch is in oslo-incubator and will not be backported to the stable/folsom branch of nova/cinder/quantum, since it's a new feature.
Verified NVR: # rpm -qa | grep openstack-nova openstack-nova-compute-2012.2.3-4.el6ost.noarch openstack-nova-api-2012.2.3-4.el6ost.noarch openstack-nova-console-2012.2.3-4.el6ost.noarch openstack-nova-novncproxy-0.4-3.el6ost.noarch openstack-nova-scheduler-2012.2.3-4.el6ost.noarch openstack-nova-common-2012.2.3-4.el6ost.noarch openstack-nova-cert-2012.2.3-4.el6ost.noarch openstack-nova-network-2012.2.3-4.el6ost.noarch Verification Steps: 1. Modified nova.conf as follows: 1.1 remove 'qpid_hostname' and 'qpid_port' 1.2 added qpid_hosts=127.0.0.1:5672 2. Restarted nova services: for i in api console network cert consoleauth compute scheduler ; do service openstack-nova-$i restart; done 3. Checked nova logs: 2013-03-06 11:58:43 16983 INFO nova.openstack.common.rpc.impl_qpid [-] Connected to AMQP server on 127.0.0.1:5672 4. Modified nova.conf with a bogus IP Address: 4.1 qpid_hosts=11.22.33.44:5672 5. Restarted nova services: for i in api console network cert consoleauth compute scheduler ; do service openstack-nova-$i restart; done 6.
