关于Cell的基本介绍，可以参考贤哥的一篇文章：
【OpenStack】G版中关于Nova的Cell http://blog.csdn.net/lynn_kong/article/details/8564558
详细的代码分析，可以参考gaoxingnengjisuan的blog：
OpenStack Nova-cell服务的源码解析（编者注：G版）http://blog.csdn.net/gaoxingnengjisuan/article/details/14216977
Cell的服务部署：
Cell的消息路由：
按照官方的推荐部署方案部署：即API Cell只部署nova-api，nova-cells服务，在Child Cell中部署除nova-api之外的全部cell服务（在本人的实际部署中，nova-compute单独部署在另一个节点）
在部署完nova-cells的服务之后，API cell上输入nova-manage service list，输出正常,但只显示本机的nova服务：
Binary Host Zone Status State Updated_At
nova-cells API-cell internal enabled :-) 2014-04-04 09:57:47
在Child Cell 或nova-Compute节点上，输入nova-manage service list，输出也正常，但也只显示本Cell的nova服务：
Binary Host Zone Status State Updated_At
nova-cert Cell internal enabled :-) 2014-04-04 10:00:11
nova-conductor Cell internal enabled :-) 2014-04-04 10:00:19
nova-consoleauth Cell internal enabled :-) 2014-04-04 10:00:12
nova-scheduler Cell internal enabled :-) 2014-04-04 10:00:12
nova-cells Cell internal enabled :-) 2014-04-04 10:00:11
nova-compute Computer3 nova enabled :-) 2014-04-04 10:00:13
但是，在任意节点 终端输入 nova service-list 和 nova host-list 命令将报错：
命令报错：

跟踪 API Cell 节点的 nova-api.log, 输出如下错误信息：

后来查询了N久，发现社区已有人提出Bugs：https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1251043
并已解决：

因为在Cell中，主机名的ID 前面加了一个前缀：cell routing path，所以格式为<cell routing path>@ID,而nova object模块里，会用一个int()的方法来将id的字符串变为整数，而int('api!cell@1')显然会报一个ValueError！
Patch 中给出的办法就是用一个代理类ServiceProxy，来处理附加在id前面的cell_paths，如下：
class ServiceProxy(object):
def __init__(self, obj, cell_path):
self._obj = obj
self._cell_path = cell_path @property
def id(self):
return cells_utils.cell_with_item(self._cell_path, self._obj.id) def __getitem__(self, key):
if key == 'id':
return self.id return getattr(self._obj, key) def __getattr__(self, key):
return getattr(self._obj, key)
目前，输入nova service-list，得到正常输出，返回各个节点的nova服务，问题解决：
