RHBA-2017:2825 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated director installer 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:

Changes to the openstack-tripleo-heat-templates component:

• The ceph-osd package is only available in a repository that requires a special entitlement that is otherwise not required on OpenStack controller and compute nodes. However, the ceph-osd package is part of the common overcloud image, and its presence creates an RPM dependency problem when it cannot be updated along with the rest of the Ceph packages.

As such, yum updates fail on nodes that do not have the ceph-osd entitlement, even though they do not require the ceph-osd package.

Now, prior to performing the yum update, the ceph-osd package is removed from overcloud nodes that do not require the package. The ceph-osd package is only required on Ceph storage nodes (including hyperconverged nodes running Ceph OSD and Compute services). Yum updates succeed on nodes that do not require the ceph-osd package. Ceph storage and hyperconverged nodes that require the ceph-osd package will still require the necessary Ceph OSD entitlement. (BZ#1405881)

Changes to the python-os-brick component:

• Complete refactoring of the iSCSI connection mechanism for improved reliability.

For optimum results, use with openstack-cinder version 9.1.4-7 or higher and iscsi-initiator-utils version 6.2.0.874-2 or higher. (BZ#1441066 and BZ#1443178)

• When we refactored iSCSI connections on os-brick, we began relying more heavily on the iSCSI session parsing. This had some bugs that did not affect the attach/detach mechanism before the changes, but they do now, since they were only looking at tcp sessions. You cannot attach volumes that use iSER protocol.

We now include iSER sessions when checking existing sessions. The attach and detach now works for iSER connections. (BZ#1484496)

Changes to the python-tripleoclient component:

• The CLI would not block when stack update is performed. As such, a user could inadvertently think that the update was complete when it was not, and try again, not realizing that state of the stack was still in progress.

This fix will now block the CLI until the stack update is complete. (BZ#1397852)

Solution

Before applying this update, ensure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10 runs on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4.

form a working cloud computing environment.

• Technology Previews, Recommended Practices, and Known Issues.
• The channels required for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10, including which

channels need to be enabled and disabled.
