Lab 3.2 Devstack fails with cinder

wayno123

Hello,

I have tried several times to build my Devstack environement in Lab 3.2 with no success. Can you help?

 

Using the local.conf that is listed in the lab notes, building the stack fails at cinder. See the last lines of the log below.

I tried to unstack and clean a couple times. I tried again after rebooting Comput-node. I restarted the lab environment fresh also. I attempted a couple of fixes from Google searches but nothing has got me past this point. After being stuck on this lab for a second day I have decided to seek help.

 

Let me know if there are things that I can try or answer for you. Thanks.

I just ran a devstack install without issue outside of the lab environment, so I think there may be an issue with the provided storage. I will investigate further and bring back information as soon as I figure out the root cause.

Thank you.

Any update on this Cinder problem on lab 3.2? I tried to stack again using the Liberty-stable devstack library but it still failed at the same spot.

When trying to run some "openstack" commands in lab 3.3, it is possible that there are more Cinder issues. I just wanted to pass this infor along to you. 

(openstack) volume create --size 1 volumeA

It seens there is a Cinder endpoint created, but "volume create" command can not communicate with Cinder.

I hope this is helpful in some way.

Hello, 

After invistigating it looks like Neutron changes cause several knock-on issues. I have just run the lab using the git clone commands but appending the -b stable/liberty to make sure a version that still uses Nova networking is used. 

If you run the lab as written in the book, but only with a slightly different git clone command and you receive this error again, please let us know.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
