RHBA-2018:1603 - 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.)

Changes to the openstack-neutron component:

• Previously, when an interface was removed from a router, the metadata proxy for the network was not updated even though isolated metadata was enabled on the DHCP agent. As a result, instances were not able to fetch metadata if they are on the network no longer connected to the router. This fix updates the metadata proxy so when a router interface is removed, instances are still able to fetch metadata from the DHCP namespace. (BZ#1540452)

Solution

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