RHBA-2018:0357 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated OpenStack Networking 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 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 update includes the following fix:

• Previously for DVR deployments, the 'test_add_list_remove_router_on_l3_agent' function from 'test_l3_agent_scheduler.py' would not finish successfully. When a new router was created, the testing procedure tried to bind a network interface to an L3 agent, even though the interface had previously been bound to one. With this update, the interface will not be added to the router and assigned to the L3 agent until the test does so. As a result, the test finishes successfully. (BZ#1436579)
