Scheduling based on resource classes
|

====================================
|

|

The Newton release of the Bare Metal service includes a field on the node
|
||||
resource called ``resource_class``. This field is available in version 1.21 of
|
||||
the Bare Metal service API.
|
||||
the Bare Metal service API. Starting with the Pike release, this field has
|
||||
to be populated for all nodes, as explained in :doc:`enrollment`.
|
||||
|
||||
In the future (Pike or Queens release), a Compute service flavor will use this
|
||||
field for scheduling, instead of the CPU, RAM, and disk properties defined in

the flavor above. A flavor will require *exactly one* of some bare metal
|
||||
As of the Pike release, a Compute service flavor is able to use this field
|
||||
for scheduling, instead of the CPU, RAM, and disk properties defined in
|
||||
the flavor above. A flavor can request *exactly one* instance of a bare metal
|
||||
resource class.
|
||||
|
||||
This work is still in progress (see `blueprint
|
||||
custom-resource-classes-in-flavors`), and the syntax for the ``flavor-create``
|
||||
call to associate flavors with resource classes is yet to be implemented.
|
||||
According to the `custom resource classes specification`_, it will look
|
||||
as follows:
|
||||
To achieve that, the flavors, created as described in `Scheduling based on
|
||||
properties`_, have to be associated with one custom resource class each.
|
||||
A name of the custom resource class is the name of node's resource class, but
|
||||
upper-cased, with ``CUSTOM_`` prefix prepended, and all punctuation replaced
|
||||
with an underscore:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ nova flavor-key my-baremetal-flavor set resources:CUSTOM_<RESOURCE_CLASS>=1
|
||||
|
||||
where ``<RESOURCE_CLASS>`` is the resource class name in upper case with all
|
||||
punctuation replaces with an underscore.
|
||||
|
||||
For example,

|
||||
.. code-block:: console

Example
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to define a class of nodes called ``baremetal.with-GPU``, start
|
||||
with tagging some nodes with it:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ ironic --ironic-api-version=1.21 node-update $NODE_UUID \
|
||||
replace resource_class=baremetal.with-GPU
|
||||
|
||||
.. warning::
|
||||
It is possible to **add** a resource class to ``active`` nodes, but it is
|
||||
not possiblre to **replace** an existing resource class on them.
|
||||
|
||||
Then you can update your flavor to request the resource class instead of
|
||||
the standard properties:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$ nova flavor-key my-baremetal-flavor set resources:CUSTOM_BAREMETAL_WITH_GPU=1
|
||||
$ nova flavor-key my-baremetal-flavor set resources:VCPU=0
|
||||
$ nova flavor-key my-baremetal-flavor set resources:MEMORY_MB=0
|
||||
$ nova flavor-key my-baremetal-flavor set resources:DISK_GB=0
|
||||
|
||||
Note how ``baremetal.with-GPU`` in the node's ``resource_class`` field becomes
|
||||
``CUSTOM_BAREMETAL_WITH_GPU`` in the flavor's properties.

upgrade:

|

Due to upcoming changes in the way Nova schedules bare metal nodes, all
|
||||
nodes in a deployment using Nova have to get the ``resource_class`` field
|
||||
populated before the upgrade. See `enrollment documentation
|
||||
<https://docs.openstack.org/ironic/latest/install/enrollment.html#enrollment-process>`_
|

and `flavor configuration documentation
|

<https://docs.openstack.org/ironic/latest/install/configure-nova-flavors.html#scheduling-based-on-resource-classes>`_
|
||||
for details.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've migrated your flavors to resource classes, you should unset
|
||||
the deprecated ``use_baremetal_filters`` option in the Compute service
|
||||
configuration. Otherwise you'll be using the filters incompatible with
|
||||
scheduling based on resource classes.
