【openstack报错】【metadata问题】‘http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/instance-id’ failed : url error [[Errno 111] Connection refused]

【时间】2014年2月25日

【平台】ubuntu 12.04.3

　　　　openstack havana  with nova-network in multi-host

【日志】实例启动时输出的日志内容如下：

...

...- util.py[WARNING]: 'http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/instance-id' failed [/120s]: url error [[Errno ] Connection refused]

... - DataSourceEc2.py[CRITICAL]: giving up on md after  seconds

...

【情景】multi-host模式下，由nova-network提供网络服务。当使用官方提供的ubuntu12.04镜像启用新的实例时，无法获得实例的用户名，也无法注入ssh秘钥。

最后发现实例启动时输出的日志有多行WARNING信息，提示获取metadata数据失败。

【分析】因为本人的nova相关模块部署的时间较早，版本较低，且官方安装文档提到：

nova-api-metadata service. Accepts metadata requests from instances. The nova-api-metadata service is generally only used when you run in multi-host mode with nova-network installations.

On Debian systems, it is included in the nova-api package, and can be selected through debconf.

所以根据早期版本的官方安装文档，compute节点没有安装nova-api-metadata模块。然而，根据新的官方安装文档：

So that the nova-network service can forward metadata requests on each compute node, each compute node must install the nova-api-metadata service, as follows:

# apt-get install nova-network nova-api-metadata

在multi-host模式下，metadata服务请求由nova-network来转发，故每个compute节点上都需要安装nova-api-metadata模块。

【解决】

在compute节点上：

#apt-get install nova-api-metadata

#service nova-compute restart;service nova-network restart;service nova-api-metadata restart

在controller节点上：

#service nova-scheduler restart;service nova-api restart;service nova-cert restart;service nova-conductor restart;service nova-novncproxy restart;service nova-consoleauth restart

注意：如果很久前部署的openstack平台，那么安装nova-api-metadata模块之后，可能出现版本兼容问题。详见另一博文。
