New Charm Features
Full Ubuntu 16.04 support
The OpenStack charms have been validated for Ubuntu 16.04; Xenial series charms are available in the charm-store, for example:
juju deploy cs:xenial/nova-compute
OpenStack Mitaka Support on 14.04 and 16.04
The charms provide full support for OpenStack Mitaka.
To deploy OpenStack Mitaka on Ubuntu 14.04, use the 'openstack-origin' configuration option, for example:
cat > config.yaml << EOF nova-cloud-controller: openstack-origin: cloud:trusty-mitaka EOF juju deploy --config config.yaml nova-cloud-controller
OpenStack Mitaka is part of the Ubuntu 16.04 release, so no additional configuration is required for deployment:
juju deploy cs:xenial/nova-cloud-controller
Ceph MON charm
The Ceph charm set has been refactored to split the Ceph MON personality into its own charm; for new deployments, please use the ceph-mon and ceph-osd charms:
juju deploy -n 3 ceph-mon juju deploy -n 100 ceph-osd juju add-relation ceph-mon ceph-osd
Its possible to install the ceph-mon charm in LXC (or LXD with Juju 2.0) containers under MAAS deployments.
The ceph-mon charm will automatically generated monitor keys and an fsid if not provided via configuration (this is a change in behaviour from the ceph charm).
The ceph charm is still part of this charm release; The ceph charm will be deprecated once the migration path from ceph -> ceph-mon has been implemented and tested.
Upgrading
General
Please ensure that the keystone charm is upgraded first.
To upgrade an existing deployment to the latest charm version simply use the 'upgrade-charm' command, e.g.:
juju upgrade-charm cinder
Note: The networking endpoint in keystone has been renamed from quantum to neutron in-line with upstream name changes.
New Charm Features
Deprecation Notices
Minimum Juju version
OpenStack Charm CI testing no longer validates the OpenStack charms against versions of Juju (< 1.24) which don't have the leader election feature, used to determine leadership between peer units within a service.
Legacy leadership support will be removed from the charms over the next few development cycles, so please ensure that you are running on Juju >= 1.24.
