External RabbitMQ

Sometimes, for various reasons (Redundancy, organisational policies, etc.), it might be necessary to use an external RabbitMQ cluster. This use case can be achieved with the following steps:

Requirements

  • An existing RabbitMQ cluster, reachable from all of your nodes.

Enabling External RabbitMQ support

In order to enable external RabbitMQ support, you will first need to disable RabbitMQ deployment, by ensuring the following line exists within /etc/kolla/globals.yml :

enable_rabbitmq: "no"

Overwriting transport_url within globals.yml

When you use an external RabbitMQ cluster, you must overwrite *_transport_url within /etc/kolla/globals.yml

rpc_transport_url:
notify_transport_url:
nova_cell_rpc_transport_url:
nova_cell_notify_transport_url:

For example:

rpc_transport_url: rabbit://openstack:6Y6Eh3blPXB1Qn4190JKxRoyVhTaFsY2k2V0DuIc@10.0.0.1:5672,openstack:6Y6Eh3blPXB1Qn4190JKxRoyVhTaFsY2k2V0DuIc@10.0.0.2:5672,openstack:6Y6Eh3blPXB1Qn4190JKxRoyVhTaFsY2k2V0DuIc@10.0.0.3:5672//
notify_transport_url: "{{ rpc_transport_url }}"
nova_cell_rpc_transport_url: rabbit://openstack:6Y6Eh3blPXB1Qn4190JKxRoyVhTaFsY2k2V0DuIc@10.0.0.1:5672//
nova_cell_notify_transport_url: "{{ nova_cell_rpc_transport_url }}"

Note

Ensure the rabbitmq user used in *_transport_url exists.
