Hello!
In the documentation I noticed that EC2 metadata may soon be removed from Nova [1]. Currently, we use EC2 metadata in our product to obtain public and private IP addresses, as well as the instance-type (flavor). Therefore, I would like to ask you a couple of questions. 1. Do you plan to ensure compatibility before removing EC2 metadata from the system, i.e. to add these fields to the OpenStack metadata, which is not yet available? 2. When is it expected that EC2 metadata will be removed from the system?
Nova's in-tree ec2-api has already been removed [2] (though I can't find the commit that did it). That being said, the out-of-tree ec2-api project [3] is still around and kicking (just barely, looking at the commit history, but it's not inactive).
Best regards, Mikhail Fedosin
