endpoint not used in lxd provider

[José Pekkarinen]

Hi,

I'm trying to use the endpoint with the lxd provider, and it doesn't use the information provided. Config file is this:

clouds:
  ant-lxd:
    type: lxd
    authtypes: [empty]
    regions:
      ant:
        endpoint: https://192.168.0.29:8443

lxd is added as a remote in local lxd and can be used:

lxc remote list
+-----------------+------------------------------------------+---------------+--------+--------+
| NAME | URL | PROTOCOL | PUBLIC | STATIC |
+-----------------+------------------------------------------+---------------+--------+--------+
| ant | https://192.168.0.29:8443 | lxd | NO | NO |
+-----------------+------------------------------------------+---------------+--------+--------+

Using it:

lxc launch ant:f4c4c60a6b75 ant:mycontainer
Creating mycontainer
Starting mycontainer

lxc list
+-------------+---------+---------------------+------+------------+-----------+
| NAME | STATE | IPV4 | IPV6 | TYPE | SNAPSHOTS |
+-------------+---------+---------------------+------+------------+-----------+
| mycontainer | RUNNING | 192.168.0.2 (eth0) | | PERSISTENT | 0 |
+-------------+---------+---------------------+------+------------+-----------+

Bootstrapping the cloud:

juju bootstrap ant-controller ant-lxd
ERROR invalid config: lxdbr0 has no ipv4 or ipv6 subnet enabled
It looks like your lxdbr0 has not yet been configured. Please configure it via:

        sudo dpkg-reconfigure -p medium lxd

and then bootstrap again.

Which corresponds to locally use the default profile in the host it tries to connect to the remote:

lxc profile show default
name: default
config:
  environment.http_proxy: http://[fe80::1%eth0]:13128
  user.network_mode: link-local
description: Default LXD profile
devices:
  eth0:
    name: eth0
    nictype: bridged
    parent: lxdbr0
    type: nic

This is the profile in the remote host:

lxc profile show default
name: default
config: {}
description: Default LXD profile
devices:
  eth0:
    name: eth0
    nictype: bridged
    parent: br0
    type: nic

Any clue what is going on? Any other info I can provide?

Thanks!

José.

Way to test it:

1) Create a xenial container connected to a bridge in your machine.
2) Install juju 2 on it.
3) juju add-cloud ant-lxd lxd.yaml
4) juju bootstrap ant-controller ant-lxd

Juju doesn't currently support remote lxd endpoints. It's something we've got on the roadmap for after 2.0 release.

[Anastasia (anastasia-macmood)]

Removing 2.1 milestone as we will not be addressing this issue in 2.1.

[Heather Lanigan (hmlanigan)]

Remote lxd has been a supported juju cloud for a few years now.
