RHBA-2017:1589 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated OpenStack Orchestration packages that resolve various issues are
now available for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10.0 (Newton) 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 Orchestration service

OpenStack Orchestration (heat) is a template-driven engine used to specify
and deploy configurations for Compute, Storage, and OpenStack Networking.
It can also be used to automate post-deployment actions, which in turn
allows automated provisioning of infrastructure, services, and
applications. Orchestration can also be integrated with Telemetry alarms to
implement auto-scaling for certain infrastructure resources. This update re-bases the OpenStack Orchestration service and fixes several bugs.

In addition, running 'heat output-show' with the '--format json' option will now pass all data returned by the underlying API (instead of returning only the output value).
(BZ#1424600)
