Learn how to create and configure Availability Zones (AZ) in Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift for high availability and workload distribution! In this 8-minute tutorial, I'll show you how to create custom availability zones, assign compute nodes to specific zones, and deploy VMs with zone-specific placement for better fault tolerance and resource management. 🔧 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: ✅ Understanding Availability Zones in OpenStack ✅ Creating custom availability zones (zone-dev, zone-prod) ✅ Working with host aggregates and compute node assignment ✅ Deploying VMs to specific availability zones ✅ Verifying zone configuration and VM placement ✅ Best practices for high availability architecture ⚙️ TECHNOLOGIES COVERED: - Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift (RHOSO) 18.0 - Nova compute services and host aggregates - OpenStack CLI commands - Availability zone management - High availability architecture design 📋 COMMANDS DEMONSTRATED: # Create availability zones openstack aggregate create --zone zone-dev aggregate-dev openstack aggregate create --zone zone-prod aggregate-prod # Assign compute nodes to zones openstack aggregate add host aggregate-dev openstack aggregate add host aggregate-prod # Deploy VM to specific zone openstack server create --availability-zone zone-dev vm-name 🎯 TIMELINE: 00:00 - Introduction to Availability Zones 01:30 - Creating host aggregates and zones 03:00 - Assigning compute nodes to zones 04:30 - Verifying zone configuration 05:30 - Deploying VMs to specific zones 07:00 - Testing and validation 08:00 - Conclusion and next steps 💡 WHY USE AVAILABILITY ZONES?
