Disable Nova cell mapping

Disable Nova cell mappingΒΆ

Note

This feature is available starting from the MCP 2019.2.16 maintenance update. Before using the feature, follow the steps described in Apply maintenance updates.

You may need to disable cell mapping and database migrations for the OpenStack Compute service (Nova), for example, to faster redeploy the nova state.

Note

Enable Nova cell mapping before performing any update or upgrade.

To disable Nova cell mapping:

  1. In defaults/openstack/init.yml on the system Reclass level, set the nova_control_update_cells parameter to False:

    _param:
      nova_control_update_cells: False
    
  2. Log in to the Salt Master node.

  3. Refresh cache, synchronize Salt pillars and resources:

    salt '*' saltutil.clear_cache && \
    salt '*' saltutil.refresh_pillar && \
    salt '*' saltutil.sync_all
