[neutron][kolla] Do neutron agents in compute nodes connect to neutron database ?
Hi all, Do neutron agents in compute nodes have to connect to neutron database ? We are maintaining an Openstack using kolla-ansible (ussuri version). We noticed that the 4 neutron agents on compute nodes: neutron-l3-agent, neutron-metadata-agent, neutron-openvswitch-agent, neutron-dhcp-agent are all using the same neutron.conf config file, but we are wondering if they actually use [database] or is it redundant ? If no, is it safe to remove the [database] section from the neutron.conf for these agents?

It's safe to remove that section. Only neutron-server is connecting to database. Agents are communicating with neutron-server through RPC.
