Topic
Updated OpenStack Orchestration packages that resolve various issues are
now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 6.0 (Juno)
for RHEL 7.
Description
Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform provides the facilities for
building 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 addresses the following issues:
- Previously, there were cases where it took a long time to create a new resource as requested by the scaling operation on an autoscaling group resource, for instance, a nova server creation followed by a complex SoftwareDeployment. The cooldown timestamp was not generated until this was complete.
During this process, any additional alarms that were triggered were not blocked by the current cooldown checking mechanism, so the group size could be adjusted too many times.
With this release, the autoscaling group now ignores alarms received while a scaling operation is in progress. As a result, autoscaling groups no longer act on multiple alarms inside the cooldown period and the issue is now resolved. (BZ#1262156)
