The nova.cells.rpcapi Module

Client side of nova-cells RPC API (for talking to the nova-cells service within a cell).

This is different than communication between child and parent nova-cells services. That communication is handled by the cells driver via the messaging module.

• 1.34 - build_instances uses BlockDeviceMapping objects, drops

  legacy_bdm argument

... Kilo supports message version 1.34. So, any changes to existing methods in 1.x after that point should be done such that they can handle the version_cap being set to 1.34.

• 1.35 - Make instance_update_at_top, instance_destroy_at_top

  and instance_info_cache_update_at_top use instance objects

• 1.36 - Added ‘delete_type’ parameter to terminate_instance()

... Liberty supports message version 1.37. So, any changes to existing methods in 1.x after that point should be done such that they can handle the version_cap being set to 1.37.
