4.3. RHEA-2018:2671 — Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10 Enhancement Update

diskimage-builder

BZ#1267169

Previously, systemd did not handle DHCP service interface names that contained '-' correctly. As a result of this, these interfaces failed to start and logged the error 'Failed to start DHCP interface".

With this fix, systemd now escapes interface names that contain '-'.

openstack-gnocchi

BZ#1562121

Previously, Gnocchi attempted to create a storage directory on every startup, even if the storage directory already existed. Gnocchi failed to start if the directory creation failed.

With this update, gnocchi-upgrade creates the storage directory only once. As a result, Gnocchi starts successfully.

openstack-ironic-python-agent

BZ#1565295

With this update, bare metal node introspection reports both the /dev/XXX block device name and the /dev/disk/by-path/XXX name. Unlike the /dev/XXX name, the /dev/disk/by-path/XXX name does not change at system reboot and may be the same across similarly configured hardware. This update improves reliability of deployments by using /dev/disk/by-path/XXX information in the cloud configuration.

openstack-manila

BZ#1610598

Previously, the NetApp driver ignored the size argument when a user requested a share from an existing snapshot. As a result, users did not get shares of the requested size.

With this update, the NetApp driver creates shares according to the size argument that users specify.

BZ#1610604

Previously, the NetApp driver operating in driver_handles_share_servers=True mode could not delete share servers that were created on non-segmented networks. This resulted in clean-up issues that prevented users from creating new shares.

With this update, the NetApp driver does not assume that share servers are provisioned only on segmented (VLAN) networks. As a result of this, share servers on non-segmented networks can be cleaned up successfully, and users can create new shares.

BZ#1610629

Previously, the security style of CIFS shares that were provisioned with the NetApp driver was incorrect. As a result of this, users were unable to write data to CIFS shares, even with explicit 'rw' access.

With this update, the security style of the NetApp ONTAP driver is always 'ntfs' on CIFS shares, and users that request 'rw' access with the Shared File System service (manila) can write data to CIFS shares successfully.

BZ#1610639

Previously, the NetApp driver operating in driver_handles_share_servers=True mode failed to configure Active Directory services when the Active Directory server was not in the same subnet as the ONTAP Vserver. As a result, users were unable to create CIFS shares on the NetApp back-end when the Active Directory server was not on the private tenant network.

With this update, the NetApp driver creates the necessary static routes with the gateway specified on the tenant networks. Users can create CIFS shares on the NetApp back-end when the Active Directory service is on a different network, but a path exists with the tenant network gateway.

BZ#1591373

Previously, the Shared File System service (manila) emitted unhelpful warnings about ignored keywords on every wsgi request. As a result, log efficiency was reduced.

With this update, the unhelpful warnings no longer appear in logs.

BZ#1591376

Previously, the Shared File System service (manila) emitted unhelpful warnings about ignored keywords on every wsgi request. As a result, log efficiency was reduced.

With this update, the unhelpful warnings no longer appear in logs.

python-cliff

BZ#1437402

Previously, commands with output that contained non-ASCII characters failed when the command was run with --format=csv.

With this update, command output that contains unicode characters displays correctly.

python-openstackclient

BZ#1576172

Previously, the expected status for server migration completion was set only to "active". As a result, the 'openstack server migrate --wait' command hung forever.

With this update, "verify_resize" was added to the list of expected statuses for the 'migrate' command and the 'openstack server migrate --wait' command succeeds when the server migration is verified.

BZ#1581844

Previously, the regular expression used to match and extract the load average from Nova hypervisors load average API was incorrect. As a result, the load average would not display if the number of users was 1.

With this update, the regular expression matches all possible load average formats, and the load average displays correctly in all cases.

BZ#1563548

Previously, the command to unset static routes from a router failed with the error 'Router does not contain route xxx'.

With this fix, the command 'openstack router unset --route' is now successful.

python-os-client-config

BZ#1477126

Previously, password values in formatted strings were expanded, causing the client commands to fail when the password contained special characters.

With this update, passwords are not subject to formatting and the client accepts passwords that contain special characters.

python-oslo-messaging

BZ#1599975

Previously, when an OpenStack service logs at DEBUG level, Oslo Messaging logs the message "Timed out waiting for RPC response" unnecessarily.

With this fix, Oslo Messaging no longer logs this message in instances when the timeout is recoverable.
