New stable charms¶
<TITLE>¶
New stable charm features¶
With each new feature, there is a corresponding example bundle in the form of a
test bundle, and/or a section in the current guide (Charm Guide) that details
its usage. Test bundles are located in the src/tests/bundles directory of
the relevant charm repository (see all charm repositories).
manila charm: add support to configure scheduler default filters¶
The manila charm has a new configuration option scheduler-default-filters. This configures the scheduler_default_filters parameter in manila configuration file.
This is unset by default, so manila retains the default value for scheduler_default_filters. Those might change based on OpenStack release.
For more details see bug LP #1998200.
Add support for Keystone audit middleware API logging¶
The charms listed below have a new configuration option audit-middleware. This option enables or disables Keystone audit middleware functionality that allows the user to audit API requests and configure their environment for CADF compliance (see keystone audit middleware). This option is disabled by default to prevent log file bloat. The following charms support this feature, with the respective audit log file write locations:
charm-cinder: /var/log/apache2/cinder_error.log
charm-glance: /var/log/glance/glance-api.log
charm-heat: /var/log/heat/heat-api.log
charm-neutron-api: /var/log/neutron/neutron-server.log
charm-nova-cloud-controller: /var/log/nova/nova-api-wsgi.log
For more details see bug LP #1856555.
Ironic: add support for OVN¶
OpenStack Ironic now supports OVN as the configured SDN of choice. The neutron-api, neutron-api-plugin-ovn, neutron-api-plugin-ironic charms have been update to support the necessary services and drivers to use OVN instead of Open vSwitch. To use this feature, deploy OVN services and ensure that both the neutron-api-plugin-ovn and neutron-api-plugin-ironic are deployed.
For more details see the Ironic documentation for OpenStack charms.
