Stein Series Release Notes

18.0.0.0b1-74

New Features

• The service setup in keystone for ironic will now be executed through delegation to the ironic_service_setup_host which, by default, is localhost (the deploy host). Deployers can opt to rather change this to the utility container by implementing the following override in user_variables.yml.

  ironic_service_setup_host: "{{ groups['utility_all'][0] }}"
  

• Support separate oslo.messaging services for RPC and Notifications to enable operation of separate and different messaging backend servers in ironic.

Deprecation Notes

• The variable ironic_requires_pip_packages is no longer required and has therefore been removed.

• The rabbitmq server parameters have been replaced by corresponding oslo.messaging RPC and Notify parameters in order to abstract the messaging service from the actual backend server deployment. - ironic_oslomsg_rpc_servers replaces ironic_rabbitmq_servers - ironic_oslomsg_rpc_port replaces ironic_rabbitmq_port - ironic_oslomsg_rpc_use_ssl replaces ironic_rabbitmq_use_ssl - ironic_oslomsg_rpc_userid replaces ironic_rabbitmq_userid - ironic_oslomsg_rpc_vhost replaces ironic_rabbitmq_vhost
