Hello, we are working on the cloud, and the architecture uses lxd, microovn and microceph, but now we have a problem, how to change the IP of the server without re-init?
Hope to get your reply.
@stgraber @masnax is this supported yet? I’m imaging not, because there are a lot of moving parts to ceph, ovn and LXD.
Nope and it’s going to be very very tricky to support as there would be 6 independent distributed systems that would need to be re-addressed, not to mention that re-addressing Ceph usually causes kernel hangs and so would need some forced reboots.
I requested we add wording around addresses needing to be stable as re-addressing is near impossible. Down the line when we have solid grow/shrink, that should offer a way out of this by allowing to grow onto new machines in the new subnet and then shrink by removing those in the old subnet, but we’re not there yet.
