Configuration options for the Orchestration service

The following options can be set in the /etc/heat/heat.conf config file. A sample configuration file is also available.

DEFAULT

host
Type

string

Default

<Hostname>

This option has a sample default set, which means that its actual default value may vary from the one documented above.

Name of the engine node. This can be an opaque identifier. It is not necessarily a hostname, FQDN, or IP address.

plugin_dirs
Type

list

Default

['/usr/lib64/heat', '/usr/lib/heat', '/usr/local/lib/heat', '/usr/local/lib64/heat']

List of directories to search for plug-ins.

environment_dir
Type

string

Default

/etc/heat/environment.d

The directory to search for environment files.

template_dir
Type

string

Default

/etc/heat/templates

The directory to search for template files.

deferred_auth_method
Type

string

Default

trusts

Valid Values

password, trusts

Select deferred auth method, stored password or trusts.

Warning

This option is deprecated for removal since 9.0.0. Its value may be silently ignored in the future.

Reason

reauthentication_auth_method
Type

string

Default

Valid Values

‘’, trusts

Allow reauthentication on token expiry, such that long-running tasks may complete. Note this defeats the expiry of any provided user tokens.

allow_trusts_redelegation
Type

boolean

Default

False

Create trusts with redelegation enabled. This option is only used when reauthentication_auth_method is set to “trusts”. Note that enabling this option does have security implications as all trusts created by Heat will use both impersonation and redelegation enabled. Enable it only when there are other services that need to create trusts from tokens Heat uses to access them, examples are Aodh and Heat in another region when configured to use trusts too.

event_purge_batch_size
Type

integer

Default

200

Minimum Value

1

Controls how many events will be pruned whenever a stack’s events are purged. Set this lower to keep more events at the expense of more frequent purges.

max_events_per_stack
Type

integer

Default

1000

Rough number of maximum events that will be available per stack. Actual number of events can be a bit higher since purge checks take place randomly 200/event_purge_batch_size percent of the time. Older events are deleted when events are purged. Set to 0 for unlimited events per stack.

Finally the name of a binding method that must be present in tokens.

service_token_roles

list

Default

['service']

A choice of roles that must be present in a service token. Service tokens are allowed to request that an expired token can be used and so this check should tightly control that only actual services should be sending this token.

Default

False

This option controls whether or not to use old deprecated defaults when evaluating policies. If True, the old deprecated defaults are not going to be evaluated. This means if any existing token is allowed for old defaults but is disallowed for new defaults, it will be disallowed. It is encouraged to enable this flag along with the enforce_scope flag so that you can get the benefits of new defaults and scope_type together

hmac_keys
Type

string

Default

SECRET_KEY

Secret key(s) to use for encrypting context data for performance profiling.

This string value should have the following format: <key1>[,<key2>,…<keyn>], where each key is some random string. A user who triggers the profiling via the REST API has to set one of these keys in the headers of the REST API call to include profiling results of this node for this particular project.

Both “enabled” flag and “hmac_keys” config options should be set to enable profiling. Also, to generate correct profiling information across all services at least one key needs to be consistent between OpenStack projects. This ensures it can be used from client side to generate the trace, containing information from all possible resources.
