- [X] This is a doc addition request.
I've posted a question on http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack/2018-January/045964.html but it has not been answered yet, so I'm trying here.
The current behavior of internal_lb_vip_address/external_lb_vip_addresses is unclear from the documentation. I've found several posts and irc logs people asking for a clarification of the purpose and settings of that load balancers.
Taking https://docs.openstack.org/project-deploy-guide/openstack-ansible/pike/app-config-prod.html as an example I thought that internal_lb_vip_address of 172.29.236.9 corresponds to the deployment host, but when running setup-infrastructure.yml I see haproxy are being configured on the infra nodes (.11, .12, .13) and listen on 172.29.236.9:8181.
Since there is no service listening on 8181 on the deployment host 172.29.236.9 I'getting the behavior described in https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/104307/openstack-ansible-pip-issues-while-installing-the-infrastructure/
At the bottom of https://docs.openstack.org/project-deploy-guide/openstack-ansible/pike/app-config-prod.html there is a section mentioning haproxy_keepalived_external_vip_cidr: "1.2.3.4/32" but it's not clear to me how 1.2.3.4 is related to the setup performed by openstack-ansible using the openstack_user_config.yml file provided on this page.
Does openstack-ansible (17.0.0.0b2 on CentOS7) take care of those load balancers or do I need to configure them manually, how?

I am sorry your question on lists.openstack.org didn't get an answer. My filters search for [openstack-ansible] which didn't match in you email. I have to tweak that :)
Reading the rest now.
