Reviving the Trove Charm

#1

Hello,

As you aware official Trove Charm support dropped a while ago.

https://github.com/openstack/charm-trove

However, I couldn’t find any documentation to make it running for the previous releases.

Currently, we able to update Trove Charm for Ussuri release and charm is at working state.

53

As we see Trove can create VMs however they are stuck at BUILD state. Also, we can not reach these VMs from the network (both ping and ssh).

Additionally, I enabled the third ethernet on the servers which are going to be used for accessing internal OpenStack APIs and RabbitMQ etc. I named mapped it as physnet2 and created a router earlier as I do for external floating IPs. However VMs couldn’t able to get connected to the local network.

I am waiting for your suggestions and help to solve that networking issue and making the charm working.

Thanks,

Any thoughts from @openstack-charmers?

Hi tolgakaprol,
I don’t think the Trove charm was ever officially adopted so there may be lots of issues lurking in there, particularly as its been bit-rotting for a few years. Having said that, it sounds like you’ve already done some great work getting it up and running with Ussuri !

Its some years since I looked at Trove but I believe issues similar to the ones you are describing are usually down to a problem with the database image and the resulting guest not being able to communicate with the Trove service. So first up I would take a look at the Trove service logs and see if there is any evidence of the guest trying to communicate with them. Next I would sanity check the trove guest agent config in the image.
