Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated OpenStack Image Service packages that resolve various issues are
now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0 (Kilo)
for RHEL 7.
Description
Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform provides the facilities for
building a private or public infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) cloud
running on commonly available physical hardware. This advisory includes
packages for:
- OpenStack Image Service
OpenStack Image Service (glance) provides discovery, registration, and
delivery services for disk and server images. It provides the ability to
copy or snapshot a server image, and immediately store it away. Stored
images can be used as a template to get new servers up and running quickly
and more consistently than installing a server operating system and
individually configuring additional services.
This update addresses the following issues:
- Previously, the Image service logrotate configuration file was time
based, as a result the 'glance' logs were not cleaned up in due time.
With this update, Image service log files are rotated on a daily basis,
resulting in significantly reduced usage of the disk storage
size. (BZ#1212478)
- Previously, 'glance-store' exceptions were not being passed to the
library user (Glance) on startup and were only being logged. Consequently,
there was a possibility that configuration errors could be missed in the
logs and unexpected behavior could occur (for example, being unable to
add images).
With this update, exceptions are reported back to Image Service (glance),
and startup will fail if there is an exception. As a result, if the same
path-priority is used multiple times in a multistore NFS backend, you
will receive a warning and it will continue as if it were only defined
once. However, if the same path is defined multiple times with different
priorities, then startup will fail. (BZ#1102758)
- Previously, the URL schema was hard coded resulting in the HTTP endpoint
being returned instead of an HTTPS endpoint.
With this update, the schema calls the URL found in the wsgi environment.
As a result, the service call correctly obtains the HTTPS
endpoint. (BZ#1237209)
Solution
Before applying this update, ensure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7 runs on Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 7.1.

References section) contain the following:
- An explanation of the way in which the provided components interact to
form a working cloud computing environment.
- Technology Previews, Recommended Practices, and Known Issues.
- The channels required for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7,
including which channels need to be enabled and disabled.
