4.5.2. Configuring scheduling weights

download PDF

Hosts can be weighted for scheduling; the host with the largest weight (after filtering) is selected. All weighers are given a multiplier that is applied after normalising the node’s weight. A node’s weight is calculated as:

w1_multiplier * norm(w1) + w2_multiplier * norm(w2) + ...

You can configure weight options in the Compute node’s configuration file.

表4.8 Configuration options for Scheduling service weights
Configuration optionDescription

filter_scheduler/weight_classes

Use this parameter to configure which of the following attributes to use for calculating the weight of each host:

  • nova.scheduler.weights.ram.RAMWeigher - Weighs the available RAM on the Compute node.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.cpu.CPUWeigher - Weighs the available CPUs on the Compute node.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.disk.DiskWeigher - Weighs the available disks on the Compute node.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.metrics.MetricsWeigher - Weighs the metrics of the Compute node.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.affinity.ServerGroupSoftAffinityWeigher - Weighs the proximity of the Compute node to other nodes in the given instance group.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.affinity.ServerGroupSoftAntiAffinityWeigher - Weighs the proximity of the Compute node to other nodes in the given instance group.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.compute.BuildFailureWeigher - Weighs Compute nodes by the number of recent failed boot attempts.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.io_ops.IoOpsWeigher - Weighs Compute nodes by their workload.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.pci.PCIWeigher - Weighs Compute nodes by their PCI availability.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.cross_cell.CrossCellWeigher - Weighs Compute nodes based on which cell they are in, giving preference to Compute nodes in the source cell when moving an instance.
  • nova.scheduler.weights.all_weighers - (Default) Uses all the above weighers.

Type: String

filter_scheduler/ram_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the available RAM.

Set to a positive value to prefer hosts with more available RAM, which spreads instances across many hosts.

Set to a negative value to prefer hosts with less available RAM, which fills up (stacks) hosts as much as possible before scheduling to a less-used host.

The absolute value, whether positive or negative, controls how strong the RAM weigher is relative to other weighers.

By default, the scheduler spreads instances across all hosts evenly (ram_weight_multiplier=1.0).

Type: Floating point

filter_scheduler/disk_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the available disk space.

Set to a positive value to prefer hosts with more available disk space, which spreads instances across many hosts.

Set to a negative value to prefer hosts with less available disk space, which fills up (stacks) hosts as much as possible before scheduling to a less-used host.

The absolute value, whether positive or negative, controls how strong the disk weigher is relative to other weighers.

By default, the scheduler spreads instances across all hosts evenly (disk_weight_multiplier=1.0).

Type: Floating point

filter_scheduler/cpu_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the available vCPUs.

Set to a positive value to prefer hosts with more available vCPUs, which spreads instances across many hosts.

Set to a negative value to prefer hosts with less available vCPUs, which fills up (stacks) hosts as much as possible before scheduling to a less-used host.

The absolute value, whether positive or negative, controls how strong the vCPU weigher is relative to other weighers.

By default, the scheduler spreads instances across all hosts evenly (cpu_weight_multiplier=1.0).

Type: Floating point

filter_scheduler/io_ops_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the host workload.

Set to a negative value to prefer hosts with lighter workloads, which distributes the workload across more hosts.

Set to a positive value to prefer hosts with heavier workloads, which schedules instances onto hosts that are already busy.

The absolute value, whether positive or negative, controls how strong the I/O operations weigher is relative to other weighers.

By default, the scheduler distributes the workload across more hosts (io_ops_weight_multiplier=-1.0).

Type: Floating point

filter_scheduler/build_failure_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on recent build failures.

Set to a positive value to increase the significance of build failures recently reported by the host. Hosts with recent build failures are then less likely to be chosen.

Set to 0 to disable weighing compute hosts by the number of recent failures.

Default: 1000000.0

Type: Floating point

filter_scheduler/cross_cell_move_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts during a cross-cell move. This option determines how much weight is placed on a host which is within the same source cell when moving an instance. By default, the scheduler prefers hosts within the same source cell when migrating an instance.

Set to a positive value to prefer hosts within the same cell the instance is currently running. Set to a negative value to prefer hosts located in a different cell from that where the instance is currently running.

Default: 1000000.0

Type: Floating point

filter_scheduler/pci_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts based on the number of PCI devices on the host and the number of PCI devices requested by an instance. If an instance requests PCI devices, then the more PCI devices a Compute node has the higher the weight allocated to the Compute node.

For example, if there are three hosts available, one with a single PCI device, one with multiple PCI devices and one without any PCI devices, then the Compute scheduler prioritizes these hosts based on the demands of the instance. The first host should be preferred if the instance requests one PCI device, the second host if the instance requires multiple PCI devices and the third host if the instance does not request a PCI device.

Configure this option to prevent non-PCI instances from occupying resources on hosts with PCI devices.

Default: 1.0

Type: Positive floating point

filter_scheduler/host_subset_size

Use this parameter to specify the size of the subset of filtered hosts from which to select the host. Must be set to at least 1. A value of 1 selects the first host returned by the weighing functions. Any value less than 1 is ignored and 1 is used instead.

Set to a value greater than 1 to prevent multiple scheduler processes handling similar requests selecting the same host, creating a potential race condition. By selecting a host randomly from the N hosts that best fit the request, the chance of a conflict is reduced. However, the higher you set this value, the less optimal the chosen host may be for a given request.

Default: 1

Type: Integer

filter_scheduler/soft_affinity_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts for group soft-affinity.

Default: 1.0

Type: Positive floating point

filter_scheduler/soft_anti_affinity_weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use to weigh hosts for group soft-anti-affinity.

Default: 1.0

Type: Positive floating point

metrics/weight_multiplier

Use this parameter to specify the multiplier to use for weighting metrics. By default, weight_multiplier=1.0, which spreads instances across possible hosts.

Set to a number greater than 1.0 to increase the effect of the metric on the overall weight.

Set to a number between 0.0 and 1.0 to reduce the effect of the metric on the overall weight.

Set to 0.0 to ignore the metric value and return the value of the ‘weight_of_unavailable’ option.

Set to a negative number to prioritize the host with lower metrics, and stack instances in hosts.

Default: 1.0

Type: Floating point

metrics/weight_setting

Use this parameter to specify the metrics to use for weighting, and the ratio to use to calculate the weight of each metric. Valid metric names:

  • cpu.frequency - CPU frequency
  • cpu.user.time - CPU user mode time
  • cpu.kernel.time - CPU kernel time
  • cpu.idle.time - CPU idle time
  • cpu.iowait.time - CPU I/O wait time
  • cpu.user.percent - CPU user mode percentage
  • cpu.kernel.percent - CPU kernel percentage
  • cpu.idle.percent - CPU idle percentage
  • cpu.iowait.percent - CPU I/O wait percentage
  • cpu.percent - Generic CPU utilization

Example: weight_setting=cpu.user.time=1.0

Type: Comma-separated list of metric=ratio pairs.

metrics/required

Use this parameter to specify how to handle configured metrics/weight_setting metrics that are unavailable:

  • True - Metrics are required. If the metric is unavailable, an exception is raised. To avoid the exception, use the MetricsFilter filter in NovaSchedulerDefaultFilters.
  • False - The unavailable metric is treated as a negative factor in the weighing process. Set the returned value by using the weight_of_unavailable configuration option.

Type: Boolean

metrics/weight_of_unavailable

Use this parameter to specify the weight to use if any metrics/weight_setting metric is unavailable, and metrics/required=False.

Default: -10000.0

Type: Floating point
