15.1.17
^^^^^^^


Known Issues
************

* For all ocata releases up to 15.1.16 when executing the os-nova-
  install.yml playbook the "nova-novncproxy" and "nova-
  spicehtml5proxy" services will fail. The workaround to resolve this
  issue is to restart the services.

     cd /opt/rpc-openstack/openstack-ansible/playbooks
     # start the service again
     # replace nova-novncproxy with nova-spicehtml5proxy when appropriate
     ansible nova_console -m service -a 'name=nova-novncproxy state=restarted'
     # set the appropriate facts to prevent the playbook trying
     # to reload it again when the playbook is run again
     ansible nova_console -m ini_file -a 'dest=/etc/ansible/facts.d/openstack_ansible.fact section=nova option=need_service_restart value=False'

  This issue has been resolved in the 15.1.17 release.


Other Notes
***********

* The *max_fail_percentage* playbook option has been used with the
  default playbooks since the first release of the playbooks back in
  **Icehouse**. While the intention was to allow large-scale
  deployments to succeed in cases where a single node fails due to
  transient issues, this option has produced more problems that it
  solves. If a failure occurs that is transient in nature but is under
  the set failure percentage the playbook will report a success, which
  can cause silent failures depending on where the failure happened.
  If a deployer finds themselves in this situation the problems are
  are then compounded because the tools will report there are no known
  issues. To ensure deployers have the best deployment experience and
  the most accurate information a change has been made to remove the
  *max_fail_percentage* option from all of the default playbooks. The
  removal of this option has the side effect of requiring the deploy
  to skip specific hosts should one need to be omitted from a run, but
  has the benefit of eliminating silent, hard to track down, failures.
  To skip a failing host for a given playbook run use the *--limit
  '!$HOSTNAME'* CLI switch for the specific run. Once the issues have
  been resolved for the failing host rerun the specific playbook
  without the *--limit* option to ensure everything is in sync.
