Configuration Guidelines¶

Introduction¶

WSGI¶

When running a python app as WSGI, you need to use maximum 1 thread!

Example with apache config:

$ grep WSGIDaemonProcess /etc/apache2/sites-available/10-cinder_wsgi.conf
WSGIDaemonProcess cinder-api display-name=cinder_wsgi group=cinder processes=8 threads=1 user=cinder

Nova¶

api.max_limit¶

Documentation link: https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/configuration/config.html#api.max_limit

This settings needs to be tuned in order to make sure that Nova API will give you an expected number of objects..

Memcached¶

We recommend adding the memcached settings (memcached_servers) to all services.

It will help keystone a lot (memcached will be used to store tokens instead of asking for new tokens on each call).

It will also reduce API response time.
