Agent name of f5 agent in Openstack neutron
Hi, After F5 integration with Openstack, when neutron agent-list command is issued in openstack, the output shows list of all neutron agents and one of them is of F5. Under host column of this against F5 agent it shows hostname of the linux machine with postfix as some uuid. Example : rhel7machine:a4bd6149-e720-5c03-9ffc-eb1596e65783 Due to above format of hostname of F5 agent under neutron agent, some monitoring tools are unable to integrate with openstack to monitor F5 agent. I have tried modifying this name by changing database entry in sql database of openstack, however after restarted of service the same got disabled and new agent entry got created in neutron agent-list with the hostname of F5 agent in the format prescribed above. Kindly suggest the way to modify this without compromising any expected functionality. Regards, Maulikf5 openstack integration
Hi, we have one Openstack Queens cluster, which we are going to tell it control our f5; i googled for solution and i saw f5 heat templates and totally this page: https://clouddocs.f5.com/cloud/openstack/v1/ but based on this page of yours: https://clouddocs.f5.com/cloud/openstack/v1/support/releases_and_versioning.html and your git, i found that there is no tested solution for queens version, so my questions are: 1- how can F5’s application delivery services can be used in OpenStack-hosted applications via the Neutron LbaaS service and/or the Heat orchestration service, when i using Queens version? 2- why the f5-openstack project seems to be stopped for newer version of openstack? is there any alternative solution? thanks in advanceWhat mechanism keeps pushing the bigip.conf and bigip_base.conf files to the load balancers?
I have been cleaning out orphaned rows from the neutron LBaaS tables. I want to match the F5 configuration to what is ACTIVE in the vips, pules, poolmonitors, etc neutron tables. The quickest way I would like to do that is to delete the bigip.conf and bigp_base.conf files from each unneeded partition then run a tmsh load sys config partition { partition }, but something is putting those files back in the /config/partitions/ directories. I don't know enough about the plugin to know what is doing that. My assumption was the agent pulled that from the DB but conf files have pools configured when none exist in the pools table. So if I delete *.conf files from LBaaS partitions, how are they getting back on the F5? Is it the LBaaS plugin, or neutron or something on the F5? These are Viprion B2150 blades on 11.5.1 HF2
