Chapter 8. Configuring instance scheduling and placement The Compute scheduler service determines on which Compute node or host aggregate to place an instance. When the Compute (nova) service receives a request to launch or move an instance, it uses the specifications provided in the request, the flavor, and the image to find a suitable host. For example, a flavor can specify the traits an instance requires a host to have, such as the type of storage disk, or the Intel CPU instruction set extension. The Compute scheduler service uses the configuration of the following components, in the following order, to determine on which Compute node to launch or move an instance: Placement service prefilters : The Compute scheduler service uses the Placement service to filter the set of candidate Compute nodes based on specific attributes. For example, the Placement service automatically excludes disabled Compute nodes. Filters : Used by the Compute scheduler service to determine the initial set of Compute nodes on which to launch an instance. Weights : The Compute scheduler service prioritizes the filtered Compute nodes using a weighting system. The highest weight has the highest priority. In the following diagram, host 1 and 3 are eligible after filtering. Host 1 has the highest weight and therefore has the highest priority for scheduling. 8.1. Prefiltering using the Placement service The Compute service (nova) interacts with the Placement service when it creates and manages instances. The Placement service tracks the inventory and usage of resource providers, such as a Compute node, a shared storage pool, or an IP allocation pool, and their available quantitative resources, such as the available vCPUs. Any service that needs to manage the selection and consumption of resources can use the Placement service. The Placement service also tracks the mapping of available qualitative resources to resource providers, such as the type of storage disk trait a resource provider has. The Placement service applies prefilters to the set of candidate Compute nodes based on Placement service resource provider inventories and traits. You can create prefilters based on the following criteria: Supported image types Traits Projects or tenants Availability zone 8.1.1. Filtering by requested image type support You can exclude Compute nodes that do not support the disk format of the image used to launch an instance. This is useful when your environment uses Red Hat Ceph Storage as an ephemeral backend, which does not support QCOW2 images. Enabling this feature ensures that the scheduler does not send requests to launch instances using a QCOW2 image to Compute nodes backed by Red Hat Ceph Storage. Procedure Open your Compute environment file. To exclude Compute nodes that do not support the disk format of the image used to launch an instance, set the NovaSchedulerQueryImageType parameter to True in the Compute environment file. Save the updates to your Compute environment file. Add your Compute environment file to the stack with your other environment files and deploy the overcloud: 8.1.2. Filtering by resource provider traits Each resource provider has a set of traits. Traits are the qualitative aspects of a resource provider, for example, the type of storage disk, or the Intel CPU instruction set extension. The Compute node reports its capabilities to the Placement service as traits. An instance can specify which of these traits it requires, or which traits the resource provider must not have. The Compute scheduler can use these traits to identify a suitable Compute node or host aggregate to host an instance. To enable your cloud users to create instances on hosts that have particular traits, you can define a flavor that requires or forbids a particular trait, and you can create an image that requires or forbids a particular trait. For a list of the available traits, see the os-traits library . You can also create custom traits, as required. 8.1.2.1. Creating an image that requires or forbids a resource provider trait You can create an instance image that your cloud users can use to launch instances on hosts that have particular traits. Procedure Create a new image: Identify the trait you require a host or host aggregate to have. You can select an existing trait, or create a new trait: To use an existing trait, list the existing traits to retrieve the trait name: To create a new trait, enter the following command: Custom traits must begin with the prefix CUSTOM_ and contain only the letters A through Z, the numbers 0 through 9 and the underscore "_" character. Collect the existing resource provider traits of each host: Check the existing resource provider traits for the traits you require a host or host aggregate to have: If the traits you require are not already added to the resource provider, then add the existing traits and your required traits to the resource providers for each host: Replace <TRAIT_NAME> with the name of the trait that you want to add to the resource provider. You can use the --trait option more than once to add additional traits, as required. Note This command performs a full replacement of the traits for the resource provider. Therefore, you must retrieve the list of existing resource provider traits on the host and set them again to prevent them from being removed. To schedule instances on a host or host aggregate that has a required trait, add the trait to the image extra specs. For example, to schedule instances on a host or host aggregate that supports AVX-512, add the following trait to the image extra specs: To filter out hosts or host aggregates that have a forbidden trait, add the trait to the image extra specs. For example, to prevent instances from being scheduled on a host or host aggregate that supports multi-attach volumes, add the following trait to the image extra specs: 8.1.2.2. Creating a flavor that requires or forbids a resource provider trait You can create flavors that your cloud users can use to launch instances on hosts that have particular traits. Procedure Create a flavor: Identify the trait you require a host or host aggregate to have. You can select an existing trait, or create a new trait: To use an existing trait, list the existing traits to retrieve the trait name: To create a new trait, enter the following command: Custom traits must begin with the prefix CUSTOM_ and contain only the letters A through Z, the numbers 0 through 9 and the underscore "_" character. Collect the existing resource provider traits of each host: Check the existing resource provider traits for the traits you require a host or host aggregate to have: If the traits you require are not already added to the resource provider, then add the existing traits and your required traits to the resource providers for each host: Replace <TRAIT_NAME> with the name of the trait that you want to add to the resource provider. You can use the --trait option more than once to add additional traits, as required. Note This command performs a full replacement of the traits for the resource provider. Therefore, you must retrieve the list of existing resource provider traits on the host and set them again to prevent them from being removed. To schedule instances on a host or host aggregate that has a required trait, add the trait to the flavor extra specs. For example, to schedule instances on a host or host aggregate that supports AVX-512, add the following trait to the flavor extra specs: To filter out hosts or host aggregates that have a forbidden trait, add the trait to the flavor extra specs. For example, to prevent instances from being scheduled on a host or host aggregate that supports multi-attach volumes, add the following trait to the flavor extra specs: 8.1.3. Filtering by isolating host aggregates You can restrict scheduling on a host aggregate to only those instances whose flavor and image traits match the metadata of the host aggregate. The combination of flavor and image metadata must require all the host aggregate traits to be eligible for scheduling on Compute nodes in that host aggregate. Procedure Open your Compute environment file. To isolate host aggregates to host only instances whose flavor and image traits match the aggregate metadata, set the NovaSchedulerEnableIsolatedAggregateFiltering parameter to True in the Compute environment file. Save the updates to your Compute environment file. Add your Compute environment file to the stack with your other environment files and deploy the overcloud: Identify the traits you want to isolate the host aggregate for. You can select an existing trait, or create a new trait: To use an existing trait, list the existing traits to retrieve the trait name: To create a new trait, enter the following command: Custom traits must begin with the prefix CUSTOM_ and contain only the letters A through Z, the numbers 0 through 9 and the underscore "_" character. Collect the existing resource provider traits of each Compute node: Check the existing resource provider traits for the traits you want to isolate the host aggregate for: If the traits you require are not already added to the resource provider, then add the existing traits and your required traits to the resource providers for each Compute node in the host aggregate: Replace <TRAIT_NAME> with the name of the trait that you want to add to the resource provider. You can use the --trait option more than once to add additional traits, as required. Note This command performs a full replacement of the traits for the resource provider. Therefore, you must retrieve the list of existing resource provider traits on the host and set them again to prevent them from being removed. Repeat steps 6 - 8 for each Compute node in the host aggregate. Add the metadata property for the trait to the host aggregate: Add the trait to a flavor or an image: 8.1.4. Filtering by availability zone using the Placement service You can use the Placement service to honor availability zone requests. To use the Placement service to filter by availability zone, placement aggregates must exist that match the membership and UUID of the availability zone host aggregates. Procedure Open your Compute environment file. To use the Placement service to filter by availability zone, set the NovaSchedulerQueryPlacementForAvailabilityZone parameter to True in the Compute environment file. Remove the AvailabilityZoneFilter filter from the NovaSchedulerEnabledFilters parameter. Save the updates to your Compute environment file. Add your Compute environment file to the stack with your other environment files and deploy the overcloud: Additional resources For more information on creating a host aggregate to use as an availability zone, see Creating an availability zone . 8.2. Configuring filters and weights for the Compute scheduler service You need to configure the filters and weights for the Compute scheduler service to determine the initial set of Compute nodes on which to launch an instance. Procedure Open your Compute environment file. Add the filters you want the scheduler to use to the NovaSchedulerEnabledFilters parameter, for example: Specify which attribute to use to calculate the weight of each Compute node, for example: For more information on the available attributes, see Compute scheduler weights . Optional: Configure the multiplier to apply to each weigher. For example, to specify that the available RAM of a Compute node has a higher weight than the other default weighers, and that the Compute scheduler prefers Compute nodes with more available RAM over those nodes with less available RAM, use the following configuration: Tip You can also set multipliers to a negative value. In the above example, to prefer Compute nodes with less available RAM over those nodes with more available RAM, set ram_weight_multiplier to -2.0 . Save the updates to your Compute environment file. Add your Compute environment file to the stack with your other environment files and deploy the overcloud: Additional resources For a list of the available Compute scheduler service filters, see Compute scheduler filters . For a list of the available weight configuration options, see Compute scheduler weights . 8.3. Compute scheduler filters You configure the NovaSchedulerEnabledFilters parameter in your Compute environment file to specify the filters the Compute scheduler must apply when selecting an appropriate Compute node to host an instance. The default configuration applies the following filters: AvailabilityZoneFilter : The Compute node must be in the requested availability zone. ComputeFilter : The Compute node can service the request. ComputeCapabilitiesFilter : The Compute node satisfies the flavor extra specs. ImagePropertiesFilter : The Compute node satisfies the requested image properties. ServerGroupAntiAffinityFilter : The Compute node is not already hosting an instance in a specified group. ServerGroupAffinityFilter : The Compute node is already hosting instances in a specified group. You can add and remove filters. The following table describes all the available filters. Table 8.1. Compute scheduler filters Filter Description AggregateImagePropertiesIsolation Use this filter to match the image metadata of an instance with host aggregate metadata. If any of the host aggregate metadata matches the metadata of the image, then the Compute nodes that belong to that host aggregate are candidates for launching instances from that image. The scheduler only recognises valid image metadata properties. For details on valid image metadata properties, see Image configuration parameters . AggregateInstanceExtraSpecsFilter Use this filter to match namespaced properties defined in the flavor extra specs of an instance with host aggregate metadata. You must scope your flavor extra_specs keys by prefixing them with the aggregate_instance_extra_specs: namespace. If any of the host aggregate metadata matches the metadata of the flavor extra spec, then the Compute nodes that belong to that host aggregate are candidates for launching instances from that image. AggregateIoOpsFilter Use this filter to filter hosts by I/O operations with a per-aggregate filter_scheduler/max_io_ops_per_host value. If the per-aggregate value is not found, the value falls back to the global setting. If the host is in more than one aggregate and more than one value is found, the scheduler uses the minimum value. AggregateMultiTenancyIsolation Use this filter to limit the availability of Compute nodes in project-isolated host aggregates to a specified set of projects. Only projects specified using the filter_tenant_id metadata key can launch instances on Compute nodes in the host aggregate. For more information, see Creating a project-isolated host aggregate . Note The project can still place instances on other hosts. To restrict this, use the NovaSchedulerPlacementAggregateRequiredForTenants parameter. AggregateNumInstancesFilter Use this filter to limit the number of instances each Compute node in an aggregate can host. You can configure the maximum number of instances per-aggregate by using the filter_scheduler/max_instances_per_host parameter. If the per-aggregate value is not found, the value falls back to the global setting. If the Compute node is in more than one aggregate, the scheduler uses the lowest max_instances_per_host value. AggregateTypeAffinityFilter Use this filter to pass hosts if no flavor metadata key is set, or the flavor aggregate metadata value contains the name of the requested flavor. The value of the flavor metadata entry is a string that may contain either a single flavor name or a comma-separated list of flavor names, such as m1.nano or m1.nano,m1.small . AllHostsFilter Use this filter to consider all available Compute nodes for instance scheduling. Note Using this filter does not disable other filters. AvailabilityZoneFilter Use this filter to launch instances on a Compute node in the availability zone specified by the instance. ComputeCapabilitiesFilter Use this filter to match namespaced properties defined in the flavor extra specs of an instance against the Compute node capabilities. You must prefix the flavor extra specs with the capabilities: namespace. A more efficient alternative to using the ComputeCapabilitiesFilter filter is to use CPU traits in your flavors, which are reported to the Placement service. Traits provide consistent naming for CPU features. For more information, see Filtering by using resource provider traits . ComputeFilter Use this filter to pass all Compute nodes that are operational and enabled. This filter should always be present. DifferentHostFilter Use this filter to enable scheduling of an instance on a different Compute node from a set of specific instances. To specify these instances when launching an instance, use the --hint argument with different_host as the key and the instance UUID as the value: ImagePropertiesFilter Use this filter to filter Compute nodes based on the following properties defined on the instance image: hw_architecture - Corresponds to the architecture of the host, for example, x86, ARM, and Power. img_hv_type - Corresponds to the hypervisor type, for example, KVM, QEMU, Xen, and LXC. img_hv_requested_version - Corresponds to the hypervisor version the Compute service reports. hw_vm_mode - Corresponds to the hyperviser type, for example hvm, xen, uml, or exe. Compute nodes that can support the specified image properties contained in the instance are passed to the scheduler. For more information on image properties, see Image configuration parameters . IsolatedHostsFilter Use this filter to only schedule instances with isolated images on isolated Compute nodes. You can also prevent non-isolated images from being used to build instances on isolated Compute nodes by configuring filter_scheduler/restrict_isolated_hosts_to_isolated_images . To specify the isolated set of images and hosts use the filter_scheduler/isolated_hosts and filter_scheduler/isolated_images configuration options, for example: IoOpsFilter Use this filter to filter out hosts that have concurrent I/O operations that exceed the configured filter_scheduler/max_io_ops_per_host , which specifies the maximum number of I/O intensive instances allowed to run on the host. MetricsFilter Use this filter to limit scheduling to Compute nodes that report the metrics configured by using metrics/weight_setting . To use this filter, add the following configuration to your Compute environment file: By default, the Compute scheduler service updates the metrics every 60 seconds. To ensure the metrics are up-to-date, you can increase the frequency at which the metrics data is refreshed using the update_resources_interval configuration option. For example, use the following configuration to refresh the metrics data every 2 seconds: NUMATopologyFilter Use this filter to schedule instances with a NUMA topology on NUMA-capable Compute nodes. Use flavor extra_specs and image properties to specify the NUMA topology for an instance. The filter tries to match the instance NUMA topology to the Compute node topology, taking into consideration the over-subscription limits for each host NUMA cell. NumInstancesFilter Use this filter to filter out Compute nodes that have more instances running than specified by the max_instances_per_host option. PciPassthroughFilter Use this filter to schedule instances on Compute nodes that have the devices that the instance requests by using the flavor extra_specs . Use this filter if you want to reserve nodes with PCI devices, which are typically expensive and limited, for instances that request them. SameHostFilter Use this filter to enable scheduling of an instance on the same Compute node as a set of specific instances. To specify these instances when launching an instance, use the --hint argument with same_host as the key and the instance UUID as the value: ServerGroupAffinityFilter Use this filter to schedule instances in an affinity server group on the same Compute node. To create the server group, enter the following command: To launch an instance in this group, use the --hint argument with group as the key and the group UUID as the value: ServerGroupAntiAffinityFilter Use this filter to schedule instances that belong to an anti-affinity server group on different Compute nodes. To create the server group, enter the following command: To launch an instance in this group, use the --hint argument with group as the key and the group UUID as the value: SimpleCIDRAffinityFilter Use this filter to schedule instances on Compute nodes that have a specific IP subnet range. To specify the required range, use the --hint argument to pass the keys build_near_host_ip and cidr when launching an instance: 8.4. Compute scheduler weights Each Compute node has a weight that the scheduler can use to prioritize instance scheduling. After the Compute scheduler applies the filters, it selects the Compute node with the largest weight from the remaining candidate Compute nodes. The Compute scheduler determines the weight of each Compute node by performing the following tasks: The scheduler normalizes each weight to a value between 0.0 and 1.0. The scheduler multiplies the normalized weight by the weigher multiplier. The Compute scheduler calculates the weight normalization for each resource type by using the lower and upper values for the resource availability across the candidate Compute nodes: Nodes with the lowest availability of a resource (minval) are assigned '0'. Nodes with the highest availability of a resource (maxval) are assigned '1'. Nodes with resource availability within the minval - maxval range are assigned a normalized weight calculated by using the following formula: If all the Compute nodes have the same availability for a resource then they are all normalized to 0. For example, the scheduler calculates the normalized weights for available vCPUs across 10 Compute nodes, each with a different number of available vCPUs, as follows: Compute node 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 No of vCPUs 5 5 10 10 15 20 20 15 10 5 Normalized weight 0 0 0.33 0.33 0.67 1 1 0.67 0.33 0 The Compute scheduler uses the following formula to calculate the weight of a Compute node: The following table describes the available configuration options for weights. Note Weights can be set on host aggregates using the aggregate metadata key with the same name as the options detailed in the following table. If set on the host aggregate, the host aggregate value takes precedence. Table 8.2. Compute scheduler weights Configuration option Type Description filter_scheduler/weight_classes String Use this parameter to configure which of the following attributes to use for calculating the weight of each Compute node: nova.scheduler.weights.ram.RAMWeigher - Weighs the available RAM on the Compute node. nova.scheduler.weights.cpu.CPUWeigher - Weighs the available CPUs on the Compute node. nova.scheduler.weights.disk.DiskWeigher - Weighs the available disks on the Compute node. nova.scheduler.weights.metrics.MetricsWeigher - Weighs the metrics of the Compute node. nova.scheduler.weights.affinity.ServerGroupSoftAffinityWeigher - Weighs the proximity of the Compute node to other nodes in the given instance group. nova.scheduler.weights.affinity.ServerGroupSoftAntiAffinityWeigher - Weighs the proximity of the Compute node to other nodes in the given instance group. nova.scheduler.weights.compute.BuildFailureWeigher - Weighs Compute nodes by the number of recent failed boot attempts. nova.scheduler.weights.io_ops.IoOpsWeigher - Weighs Compute nodes by their workload. nova.scheduler.weights.pci.PCIWeigher - Weighs Compute nodes by their PCI availability. nova.scheduler.weights.cross_cell.CrossCellWeigher - Weighs Compute nodes based on which cell they are in, giving preference to Compute nodes in the source cell when moving an instance. nova.scheduler.weights.all_weighers - (Default) Uses all the above weighers. filter_scheduler/ram_weight_multiplier Floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the available RAM. Set to a positive value to prefer hosts with more available RAM, which spreads instances across many hosts. Set to a negative value to prefer hosts with less available RAM, which fills up (stacks) hosts as much as possible before scheduling to a less-used host. The absolute value, whether positive or negative, controls how strong the RAM weigher is relative to other weighers. Default: 1.0 - The scheduler spreads instances across all hosts evenly. filter_scheduler/disk_weight_multiplier Floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the available disk space. Set to a positive value to prefer hosts with more available disk space, which spreads instances across many hosts. Set to a negative value to prefer hosts with less available disk space, which fills up (stacks) hosts as much as possible before scheduling to a less-used host. The absolute value, whether positive or negative, controls how strong the disk weigher is relative to other weighers. Default: 1.0 - The scheduler spreads instances across all hosts evenly. filter_scheduler/cpu_weight_multiplier Floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the available vCPUs. Set to a positive value to prefer hosts with more available vCPUs, which spreads instances across many hosts. Set to a negative value to prefer hosts with less available vCPUs, which fills up (stacks) hosts as much as possible before scheduling to a less-used host. The absolute value, whether positive or negative, controls how strong the vCPU weigher is relative to other weighers. Default: 1.0 - The scheduler spreads instances across all hosts evenly. filter_scheduler/io_ops_weight_multiplier Floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the host workload. Set to a negative value to prefer hosts with lighter workloads, which distributes the workload across more hosts. Set to a positive value to prefer hosts with heavier workloads, which schedules instances onto hosts that are already busy. The absolute value, whether positive or negative, controls how strong the I/O operations weigher is relative to other weighers. Default: -1.0 - The scheduler distributes the workload across more hosts. filter_scheduler/build_failure_weight_multiplier Floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on recent build failures. Set to a positive value to increase the significance of build failures recently reported by the host. Hosts with recent build failures are then less likely to be chosen. Set to 0 to disable weighing compute hosts by the number of recent failures. Default: 1000000.0 filter_scheduler/cross_cell_move_weight_multiplier Floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts during a cross-cell move. This option determines how much weight is placed on a host which is within the same source cell when moving an instance. By default, the scheduler prefers hosts within the same source cell when migrating an instance. Set to a positive value to prefer hosts within the same cell the instance is currently running. Set to a negative value to prefer hosts located in a different cell from that where the instance is currently running. Default: 1000000.0 filter_scheduler/pci_weight_multiplier Positive floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the number of PCI devices on the host and the number of PCI devices requested by an instance. If an instance requests PCI devices, then the more PCI devices a Compute node has the higher the weight allocated to the Compute node. For example, if there are three hosts available, one with a single PCI device, one with multiple PCI devices and one without any PCI devices, then the Compute scheduler prioritizes these hosts based on the demands of the instance. The scheduler should prefer the first host if the instance requests one PCI device, the second host if the instance requires multiple PCI devices and the third host if the instance does not request a PCI device. Configure this option to prevent non-PCI instances from occupying resources on hosts with PCI devices. Default: 1.0 filter_scheduler/host_subset_size Integer Use this parameter to specify the size of the subset of filtered hosts from which to select the host. You must set this option to at least 1. A value of 1 selects the first host returned by the weighing functions. The scheduler ignores any value less than 1 and uses 1 instead. Set to a value greater than 1 to prevent multiple scheduler processes handling similar requests selecting the same host, creating a potential race condition. By selecting a host randomly from the N hosts that best fit the request, the chance of a conflict is reduced. However, the higher you set this value, the less optimal the chosen host may be for a given request. Default: 1 filter_scheduler/soft_affinity_weight_multiplier Positive floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts for group soft-affinity. Note You need to specify the microversion when creating a group with this policy: Default: 1.0 filter_scheduler/soft_anti_affinity_weight_multiplier Positive floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts for group soft-anti-affinity. Note You need to specify the microversion when creating a group with this policy: Default: 1.0 metrics/weight_multiplier Floating point Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use for weighting metrics. By default, weight_multiplier=1.0 , which spreads instances across possible hosts. Set to a number greater than 1.0 to increase the effect of the metric on the overall weight. Set to a number between 0.0 and 1.0 to reduce the effect of the metric on the overall weight. Set to 0.0 to ignore the metric value and return the value of the weight_of_unavailable option. Set to a negative number to prioritize the host with lower metrics, and stack instances in hosts. Default: 1.0 metrics/weight_setting Comma-separated list of metric=ratio pairs Use this parameter to specify the metrics to use for weighting, and the ratio to use to calculate the weight of each metric. Valid metric names: cpu.frequency - CPU frequency cpu.user.time - CPU user mode time cpu.kernel.time - CPU kernel time cpu.idle.time - CPU idle time cpu.iowait.time - CPU I/O wait time cpu.user.percent - CPU user mode percentage cpu.kernel.percent - CPU kernel percentage cpu.idle.percent - CPU idle percentage cpu.iowait.percent - CPU I/O wait percentage cpu.percent - Generic CPU use Example: weight_setting=cpu.user.time=1.0 metrics/required Boolean Use this parameter to specify how to handle configured metrics/weight_setting metrics that are unavailable: True - Metrics are required. If the metric is unavailable, an exception is raised. To avoid the exception, use the MetricsFilter filter in NovaSchedulerEnabledFilters . False - The unavailable metric is treated as a negative factor in the weighing process. Set the returned value by using the weight_of_unavailable configuration option. metrics/weight_of_unavailable Floating point Use this parameter to specify the weight to use if any metrics/weight_setting metric is unavailable, and metrics/required=False . Default: -10000.0
