Django has a compressor feature that performs many enhancements for the delivery of static files. If the compressor feature is enabled in your environment (
COMPRESS_OFFLINE = True
), run the following commands:$ ./manage.py collectstatic $ ./manage.py compress
Finally restart your web server to enable octavia-dashboard in your Horizon:
$ sudo service apache2 restart
Enabling octavia-dashboard and neutron-lbaas-dashboard
In general we advise against having both dashboards running at the same time to avoid confusing users, which is exaggerated since the dashboards will have the same label.
In rare circumstances, e.g. as part of a migration strategy, it might be necessary to do so. The main issue to watch out for is to avoid neutron-lbaas and Octavia getting out of sync and neutron-lbaas-dashboard showing phantom load balancers - this can be avoided if the sync between Octavia and neutron-lbaas is fully enabled.
Here is a table to show some cases:
Configuration neutron-lbaas | Configuration Octavia | neutron-lbaas-dashboard enabled | octavia-dashboard enabled | Notes |
not installed | v2 API enabled | not supported | preferred | |
octavia-driver | v2 API disabled v1 API enabled | supported | not supported | sync required |
octavia-driver | v2 API enabled v1 API enabled | supported | preferred | sync required |
octavia-proxy plugin | v1 API disabled v2 API enabled | Supported (but not recommended) | preferred | |
no octavia driver but other drivers | not installed | preferred | not supported | |
no octavia driver but other drivers | v2 API enabled v1 API disabled | preferred | preferred | independent services |
