RHBA-2017:1474 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated OpenStack Networking packages that resolve various issues are now
available for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 11.0 (Ocata) for RHEL 7.

Description

Red Hat OpenStack Platform provides the facilities for building, deploying
and monitoring a private or public infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) cloud
running on commonly available physical hardware. This advisory includes
packages for:

• OpenStack Networking service

OpenStack Networking (neutron) is a virtual network service for OpenStack.
Just as OpenStack Compute (nova) provides an API to dynamically request and
configure virtual servers, OpenStack Networking provides an API to
dynamically request and configure virtual networks. These networks connect
'interfaces' from other OpenStack services (e.g. virtual NICs from Compute
VMs). The OpenStack Networking API supports extensions to provide advanced
network capabilities (e.g. QoS, ACLs, network monitoring, etc.)

This advisory provides the following fixes:

• A database upgrade issue hindered the OpenStack Networking (neutron) upgrade. This hindered the upgrade from OpenStack Platform 10 to 11. This fix corrects the neutron database upgrade issue.

This issue affects customers who previously upgraded from OpenStack Platform 9 to 10 and now aim to upgrade to OpenStack Platform 11. (BZ#1445917)
