Instances can be created into a given AZ by passing the --availability-zone parameter as part of the creation process. Additionally, AZ can be selected in OpenStack Horizon as part of the instance creation wizard.
The following information is required to boot an instance into an AZ:
- The
openstackcommand-line client - The
openrcfile containing appropriate credentials - The name or ID of the AZ
- Additional information required to start an instance
To boot an instance into a specific AZ, the --availability-zone parameter is specified when running the openstack server create command:
openstack server create --flavor openstack.cookbook --image 08b822ba-be44-4639-b577-45e8dd37c06d --nic net-id=6cb5a4ce-1ea5-4817-9c34-a2212a66f394 --security-group bd7d5e0f-538a-4d93-b123-98cc3207b3d2 --key-name cookbook_key --availability-zone cookbook-az cookbook.test-03
This will bring back an output like the following, showing the AZ (the OS-EXT-AZ:availability-zone field) where the instance was scheduled to:
