Dashboard without nova-volume?

Asked by Christian Wittwer on 2012-03-03

Is it possible to use the dashboard without having nova-volume?
I'm not using it and I get an error if I browse to a page on the dashboard where volume related information are displayed. All other pages are working fine.

Error: "Invalid service catalog service: volume"

Currently it *is* required. However, as of very late in the E4 cycle it actually no longer needs to be. I've opened a bug to document the requirement (https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon/+bug/946874) and a blueprint to make the volume components optional (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon/+spec/nova-volume-optional).

I'm still getting this error with nova-volume service running. My understanding is that what Horizon is looking for are some kind of API endpoints, but I can't find any references to them, so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Your keystone service catalog would need to include a service with type "volume" and the appropriate endpoint (usually port 8776) on your nova volume host. Take a look at how DevStack handles it if you need an example: https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack/blob/master/files/default_catalog.templates

Thanks Gabriel, I've got every part of Horizon working now. :-)

How did you make it ???? My endpoint is saved in mysql database.

Can you help with this problem?
