Ussuri Series Release Notes

16.5.0-2

Upgrade Notes

  • The glance::api class now supports a lock_path parameter that configures the oslo.concurrency lock_path with a platform specific default value. Distributions that are used to defining the lock_path with a distribution specific config file may need to override the default glance::api::lock_path value.

Bug Fixes

  • Bug #1980539: Configure the oslo.concurrency lock_path, which is now required by cinder backends.

16.5.0

New Features

  • Add new options glance::backend::multibackend::swift::swift_buffer_on_upload and glance::backend::multibackend::swift::swift_upload_buffer_dir Indicate whether or not Glance should buffer image data to disk while uploading to swift. This enables Glance to resume uploads on error.

16.4.0

New Features

  • Added cache_prefetcher_interval in glance-api.conf, using which the periodic job will run as per the set interval and prefetch images into cache.

  • A new parameter cinder_mount_point_base is introduced into glance::backend::multistore::cinder class, so that operators can provide the cinder mount point for NFS volumes.

  • The following new parameters have been added, which can be used to set the interface parameter in authtoken middleware.

    • glance::api::authtoken::interface

    • glance::registry::authtoken::interface

Bug Fixes

  • The swift::backend::multistore::swift::swift_store_config_file is now set to /etc/glance/glance-swift.conf by default. Because of this change the parameter is automatically set to use the configuration file generated by puppet-glance.

16.2.1

New Features

  • The new parameter, cinder_os_region_name was added to glance::backend::cinder and glance::backend::multistore::cinder, to configure keystone region used for connection to cinder.
