Queens Series Release Notes

5.0.0

Nouvelles fonctionnalités

  • Support to forced deletion of cluster and nodes.

  • New version of deletion policy (v1.1) is implemented which supports the specification of lifecycle hooks to be invoked before shrinking the size of a cluster. For details, please check the policy documentation.

  • Added support to Octavia as the load-balancer driver.

  • Node details view now includes attached_volumes.

  • Added cluster config property « node.name.format » where users can specify how cluster nodes are automatically named. Users can use placeholders like « $nI » for node index padded with 0s to the left, or « $nR » for random string of length n.

  • Senlin now support policy in code, which means if users didn’t modify any of policy rules, they can leave policy file (in json or yaml format) empty or not deploy it at all. Because from now, Senlin keeps all default policies under senlin/common/policies module. Users can modify/generate policy.yaml file which will override policy rules in code if those rules show in policy.yaml file. Users also still use policy.json file but oslo team recommend that we should use the newer YAML format instead.

  • Added support to unicode availability zone names.

  • Added support to use Unicode string for cluster names.

Notes de mises à jours

  • The Octavia service must be properly installed and configured to enable load-balancing policy.

Corrections de bugs

  • Fixed a bug related to oslo.versionedobjects change that prevents cluster actions to be properly encoded in JSON requests.
