11.0.0

New Features

  • The Prometheus plugin is now installed into the Fluentd container by default.

  • Add a Monasca app plugin for the Monasca fork of Grafana. Plugin provides screens for viewing or configuring: Alarm Definitions, Alarms and Notifications

  • Added new option “–(no)summary” to allow to hide after build summary.

Upgrade Notes

  • The Logstash image has been upgraded from Logstash 2 to Logstash 6.

  • Cyborg Agent no longer includes OPAE SDK. The version was outdated and currently supported platforms do not have ready-to-use binaries. This change was required to make Cyborg buildable.

  • Kolla now no longer supports CentOS 8.2 and below. This is to support CentOS 8.3 without extra workarounds (please see the fixes section for more details). The promise is to support the latest CentOS 8 release which is 8.3 now.

  • Changes the default value of the [DEFAULT] tarballs_base configuration option from https://tarballs.openstack.org to https://tarballs.opendev.org. Since the OpenDev site is namespaced, the default source image tarball locations have been updated to include the /openstack (or in a few cases /x) URL path.

  • The congress project is no longer maintained. This has been retired since Victoria and has not been used by other OpenStack services since.

  • FWaaS project has been removed in Victoria cycle and it’s no longer included in Kolla container images and deployment.

  • Glance Registry service was deprecated in the Queens release and has been removed in Victoria. Accordingly, container image glance-registry has been removed from Kolla.

  • remove mongodb image from kolla, following deprecation process.

  • The neutron-server-opendaylight image has been removed.

  • neutron-server-ovn and neutron-metadata-agent-ovn images have been removed. OVN drivers have been moved into Neutron code base in Ussuri release and networking-ovn bits are no longer required to be installed.

  • The opendaylight image, which was deprecated in the Ussuri cycle, has been removed.

  • The sensu images which were deprecated in the Ussuri cycle has been removed.

  • td-agent has been upgraded to version 4. It will be now used for both x86-64 and aarch64 architectures on all distributions Kolla is supporting. Users before upgrade should analyse changed config file syntax for their custom fluentd configuration files.

  • Ubuntu images now use Focal 20.04 (ubuntu:20.04) as the default base image.

  • Source based builds will now install OpenStack projects code from stable tarballs, compared to versioned (released point versions) ones as before.

Deprecation Notes

  • Deprecates support for the certmonger, ec2-api, heat-all, novajoin, nova-mksproxy, ptp, radvd, rsyslog and zaqar images. In Wallaby support for these images will be removed from Kolla. No known downstream projects use these images.

  • Deprecates support for mariadb image. Please use mariadb-server image from now on - because the former will be removed in Wallaby cycle.

Bug Fixes

  • Makes Cyborg buildable for all platforms by removing dependency on OPAE SDK. LP#1873744

  • Fixes the FC Cinder backend usage in Nova. LP#1884484

  • Fixes Ceilometer deployment and upgrade failing due to wrong mode of argument passing applied to the ceilometer-upgrade command. LP#1884919

  • Fixes MariaDB incremental backup failure when full backup was not created the same day. LP#1897948

  • Fixes builds on CentOS 8.3 failing due to renamed repos. Notice Kolla now no longer supports CentOS 8.2 and below. LP#1907213

  • Drop systemd support from nsswitch.conf on RHEL-based distros. This avoids unneeded systemd nss lookups inside containers and it also avoids possible selinux denials when a container bind mounts /run and makes the dbus socket available inside the container only to be denied by selinux on the host.

  • Fixes an issue with the kolla_set_configs --check command when the source is a directory. LP#1890567

  • Fixes an issue with loading Storm and Monasca Thresh when using Centos8 containers.

  • Fixes an issue with the Masakari dashboard where policies were not loaded correctly.

  • nova-compute uses daxio to cleanup vpmem backend device on instance delete. If the daxio binary is missing in the nova-compute container instance delete fails. daxio is provided in centos via daxio, in ubuntu via the pmdk-tools package.

  • Added rally-openstack as plugin to rally source image

  • Fixes an issue which can block the Monasca Fluentd output plugin. LP#1889065

Other Notes

  • tripleoclient container image is removed. It is not needed nor useful.
