In this example we have a cluster of 1 ovs node (ovs-node01
) & 2 compute nodes (cpu-node01
and cpu-node02
) with active vPools running on them:
10.100.199.151 - ovs-node01
10.100.199.152 - cpu-node01
10.100.199.153 - cpu-node02
Suddenly 10.100.199.152 - cpu-node01
goes down due:
- to a hardware failure
- reforming existing architecture
NOTE: the compute node must be shutdown and offline.
- Move the virtual machines who lived on
10.100.199.152 - cpu-node01
to10.100.199.153 - cpu-node02
through your hypervisor management tool (vCenter, OpenStack) - Start the virtual machines
- Remove/replace or repair the compute node
- Start the compute node
- Install the required packages on the node
For more information on how to add a compute node to an Open vStorage cluster, see the Installation section.
- Move the virtual machines back to the new compute node
