18.1.5
^^^^^^


New Features
************

* Deployers can now define a cinder-backend volume type explicitly
  private or public with option "public" set to true or false.


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

* The number of inotify watch instances available is limited system
  wide via a sysctl setting. It is possible for certain processes,
  such as pypi-server, or elasticsearch from the ops repo to consume a
  large number of inotify watches. If the system wide maximum is
  reached then any process on the host or in any container on the host
  will be unable to create a new inotify watch. Systemd uses inotify
  watches, and if there are none available it is unable to restart
  services. The processes which synchronise the repo server contents
  between infra nodes also relies on inotify watches. If the repo
  servers fail to synchronise, or services fail to restart when
  expected check the the inotify watch limit which is defined in the
  sysctl value fs.inotify.max_user_watches. Patches have merged to
  increase these limits, but for existing environments or those which
  have not upgraded to a recent enough point release may have to apply
  an increased limit manually.


Bug Fixes
*********

* Fixes neutron HA routers, by enabling "neutron-l3-agent" to invoke
  the required helper script.
