If you deployed VMware Integrated OpenStack in non-HA mode, you can convert your deployment to HA mode.

Note: This action cannot be reversed. HA deployments cannot be converted to non-HA mode.

Prerequisites

Verify that your environment contains sufficient resources to deploy the additional nodes required for HA mode. See Hardware Requirements for VMware Integrated OpenStack.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Integrated OpenStack Manager as the root user.
    ssh root@mgmt-server-ip
  2. Enable HA mode on your deployment.
    viocli update deployment --enable-ha

Results

Additional controller nodes are created and service configurations are updated to enable HA on your deployment.
