<div dir="ltr">Ubuntu recently began offering pre-release Juno
packages [1] and I successfully built a three-node "core
services" environment using them. Let's discuss the potential
changes...
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1) So far, updating the OpenStack services chapters of the
installation guide mostly involves some configuration file
changes, removing old workarounds, and probably adding new
workarounds. Should we use a bug or a blueprint for these
issues? In either case, I recommend uploading separate patches
for each service.<br>
</div>

</blockquote>
<br>
I think we need separate bugs for each task so that we can have
small patches that can be finished and merged. That means multiple
bugs, so I'm for blueprints to organize them. Nothing fancy, just
something to help us keep track.<br>

<div>2) Neutron supports distributed virtual routers (DVR) and
I'm sure people want instructions for deploying them.
However, DVR introduces more complexity to already difficult
networking concepts and requires architectural changes to
fully configure and demonstrate. At least for Juno, I
recommend keeping the legacy architecture and adding
instructions for deploying DVR to the networking or admin
guides.</div>

<div>3) Open vSwitch adds another level of complexity to
already difficult networking concepts, particularly with
troubleshooting. Linux Bridge provides a reliable
alternative that reduces complexity, but DVR doesn't support
it. Should we add instructions for deploying Linux Bridge as
an alternative to Open vSwitch?</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<br>
If we leave DVR out of the install the fact that it doesn't support
Linux Bridge doesn't matter, methinks. That said, I'm for making as
few changes to the install guides as necessary to get us to Juno.<br>

<div>4) The neutron external network (ext-net) "magically"
works although we don't explicitly configure support for
flat networks. For sanity, we should probably adjust the
configuration to support one flat network and adjust the
initial network instructions to use it as a flat provider
network.</div>

consoles. Should we configure spice instead of novnc?</div>

I think it's worth thinking about but I would consider it a lower
priority than just making sure everything works as-is.<br>

<div>6) I'm seeing more deployments moving from MySQL to
MariaDB. Ubuntu 14.04 offers MariaDB 5.5 which more or less
clones MySQL 5.5 including the configuration files. I
suspect RHEL 7, Fedora, and other RPM distributions also
offer MariaDB packages. Should we change all distributions
to MariaDB?</div>
