[ops][Image Encryption] Proposed Upgrade Workflow for the Image Encryption
Hi operators, we want to integrate image encryption into openstack. When the patches will be merged, there will be a change in a metadata name. Patches are here: https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22LUKS-image-encryption%22 We want to propose the following upgrade workflow: 1. install 2024.2 or later, new resources get os_encrypt_* metadata, legacy cinder_encrypt_* metadata is still honored for a deprication period 2. run glance-manage to update all the legacy metadata names to the new os_encrypt* 3. at this point, no openstack service will create cinder_encrypt* metadata, so anything from here must be created by a user 4. Operators need to reach out to the user and notify them, that shortly the cinder_encrypt* will no longer work We don't think the last step will occur often, because it is not documented anywhere, that it is possible to add these metadata to an image right now. If not done correctly (only possible if you know how Cinder does its volume encryption) it would render the image unusable. If you object to this workflow please let me know, we still have time to discuss this. greetings Josephine (Luzi)
