2025.2 Series Release Notes¶

5.6.0-7¶

Fixed Bug #2057951: The manila python client previously ignored the “region_name” parameter when initializing a client session. This caused the client to use wrong API endpoint in multi-region deployments. The client now correctly respects the “region_name” value ensuring requests are routed to the intended region

The openstack share set and openstack share server set commands now properly handle the –task-state argument when given no value or “None”, sending a proper null value to the API. For more details, please refer to Launchpad bug #2108991.

Fixed an issue while running ensure shares and getting a not found response. The command should now work properly.

Fixed an issue where the share group update command (and the underlying share_groups.update() python binding) was missing the experimental API flag. The client now correctly treats this action as experimental and sends the required headers. (Bug 2132937)

Starting microversion 2.90, Manila supports ‘bring your own key’ feature that allows user to pass encryption key reference in share creation. The encryption key reference must be the UUID of a secret encryption key that is stored on a key manager configured in the Shared File Systems service. Encryption key reference can belongs to either share or share-server which will be decided by storage driver capability and the share type. Added ‘encryption_keys’ per project quota which controls how many share and share server encryption keys will be created within project.

Manilaclient is updated to consider API endpoint override option –os-endpoint-override. For example, “openstack share list” command for different API endpoint will be “openstack –os-endpoint-override <endpoint_url> share list”.

Added support for targeted share backup restores via the openstackclient plugin. You can use the openstack client to restore a share backup from one source share to another target share, given the backup or share driver provides support for the operation. Available from microversion 2.91.

Support for Python 3.9 has been removed. Now Python 3.10 is the minimum version supported.

With microversion 2.89, share network subnet metadata updates will be passed to storage backend driver for processing driver specific things if supported.
