CloudStack KVM VM Load Balancing
Hi;
Does CloudStack handle, VM Load Balancing over KVM hosts? I am looking for
Vmware DRS style vm load balancing solution over KVM hosts. I check
documents but i could not find much info. Thanks for all responses.

Hello Özhan,
I hope this document may help you:
http://cloudstack-administration.readthedocs.org/en/latest/networking_and_traffic.html
Load balancing for guest VMs are done by virtual routers in
advanced zone.
Vadim.

Just FYI,
There are plans to have DRS for KVM in upcoming release of cloudstack
that will be similar to VmWare, we are still in design phase at the moment..

Re: CloudStack KVM VM Load Balancing
Posted by Dag Sonstebo <Da...@shapeblue.com>.
Hi Özhan,
“Load balancing” is probably not the right term here - this is similar to
the VMWare DRS initial placement - but it is not load based.
The placement of a VM is determined by your vm.allocation.algorithm global
setting. If you check this you’ll find the following five options:
- random: Random host chosen.
- firstfit: places the VM on the first host *with available capacity*
- userdispersing: spreads the users VMs across hosts / clusters,
effectively gives better resilience for the end users VMs
- userconcentratedpod_random: concentrates the users VMs on the same pod,
but places them at random within that pod
- userconcentratedpod_firstfit: concentrates the users VMs on the same
pod, but picks the first host with available capacity
Hope this answers your question.

Dag Sonstebo

Hi Dag;
What i understood from documentation is Load Balancing over KVM hosts are
handled only from the selection on Service Offering >> Deployment Planner
part. Is this information correct for KVM? Could you give me some
information and comments?
