F5 Openstack Kilo integration with neutron services running in cluster

Issue : Unable to have F5 Openstack Kilo integration with neutron services running in cluster.

 

It works fine when F5 is integrated to single Neutron service. But when changed to neutron services running in cluster the virtual server and pools which were created with single neutron service are getting removed automatically after few minutes.

 

Please suggest how to achieve HA with openstack F5 integration

  • The F5 lbaas agent fails to run in PCS cluster and as active/standby service. It only runs as standalone service in all 3 nodes of the openstack cluster

     

    Multiple Controllers and Agent Redundancy mentioned in f5-oslbaasv1-readme file that came with the agent

     

    Going through the pdf document page 4 and 5 (Multiple Controllers and Agent Redundancy) in which it is mentioned that enabling the environment_prefix = uuid in the F5-oslbaasv1-agent.ini to integrate F5 with multiple agents as it will help to identify and differentiate the request from each agent so the overwriting can be avoided.

     

    Please correct if the understanding is wrong.

     

    Please can anyone share your expertise.
