Availability Zones page in the OpenStack view


Availability Zones are defined to aid fault tolerance. This enables you to arrange OpenStack compute hosts into logical groups and provides a form of physical isolation and redundancy from other availability zones, such as by using a separate power supply or network equipment.

The Availability Zones page in the OpenStack view displays information for all availability zones for the selected cloud.

You can access this page in the Views tab using one of the following ways:

  • Select Views > Cloud > OpenStack and click the Availability Zones tab.
  • In the OpenStack > Cloud page, navigate to the Related Information panel and click the Availability Zones link.
