Open Stack

We are glad to announce the release of:

heat 6.0.0: OpenStack Orchestration

This release is part of the mitaka release series.

For more details, please see below.

6.0.0
^^^^^


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

* Added new functionality for showing and listing stack outputs
  without resolving all outputs during stack initialisation.

* Added new API calls for showing and listing stack outputs
  "/stack/outputs" and "/stack/outputs/output_key".

* Added using of new API in python-heatclient for "output_show" and
  "output_list". Now, if version of Heat API is 1.19 or above, Heat
  client will use API calls "output_show" and "output_list" instead of
  parsing of stack get response. If version of Heat API is lower than
  1.19, outputs resolve in Heat client as well as before.

* Add new "OS::Barbican::GenericContainer" resource for storing
  arbitrary barbican secrets.

* Add new "OS::Barbican::RSAContainer" resource for storing RSA
  public keys, private keys, and private key pass phrases.

* A new "OS::Barbican::CertificateContainer" resource for storing
  the secrets that are relevant to certificates.

* OS::Nova::HostAggregate resource plugin is added to support host
  aggregate, which is provided by nova "aggregates" API extension.

* nova.host constraint is added to support to validate host
  attribute which is provided by nova "host" API extension.

* OS::Neutron::QoSPolicy resource plugin is added to support QoS
  policy, which is provided by neutron "qos" API extension.

* OS::Neutron::QoSBandwidthLimitRule resource plugin is added to
  support neutron QoS bandwidth limit rule, which is provided by
  neutron "qos" API extension.

* Resources "OS::Neutron::Port" and "OS::Neutron::Net" now support
  "qos_policy" optional property, that will associate with QoS policy
  to offer different service levels based on the policy rules.

* OS::Neutron::RBACPolicy resource plugin is added to support RBAC
  policy, which is used to manage RBAC policy in Neutron. This
  resource creates and manages Neutron RBAC policy, which allows to
  share Neutron networks to subsets of tenants.

* Added a new "event-sinks" element to the environment which allows
  specifying a target where events from the stack are sent. It
  supports the "zaqar-queue" element for now.

* Adds a new "immutable" boolean field to the parameters section in
  a HOT template.  This gives template authors the ability to mark
  template parameters as immutable to restrict updating parameters
  which have destructive effects on the application.  A value of True
  results in the engine rejecting stack-updates that include changes
  to that parameter.  When not specified in the template, "immutable"
  defaults to False to ensure backwards compatibility with old
  templates.

* A new "OS::Keystone::Region" resource that helps in managing the
  lifecycle of keystone region.

* A new "OS::Neutron:AddressScope" resource that helps in managing
  the lifecycle of neutron address scope. Availability of this
  resource depends on availability of neutron "address-scope" API
  extension. This resource can be associated with multiple subnet
  pools in a one- to-many relationship. The subnet pools under an
  address scope must not overlap.

* New resources for Neutron Load Balancer version 2.  These are
  unique for version 2 and do not support or mix with existing version
  1 resources.

* New resource "OS::Neutron::LBaaS::LoadBalancer" is added to create
  and manage Load Balancers which allow traffic to be directed between
  servers.

* New resource "OS::Neutron::LBaaS::Listener" is added to create and
  manage Listeners which represent a listening endpoint for the Load
  Balancer.

* New resource "OS::Neutron::LBaaS::Pool" is added to create and
  manage Pools which represent a group of nodes. Pools define the
  subnet where nodes reside, the balancing algorithm, and the nodes
  themselves.

* New resource "OS::Neutron::LBaaS::PoolMember" is added to create
  and manage Pool members which represent a single backend node.

* New resource "OS::Neutron::LBaaS::HealthMonitor" is added to
  create and manage Health Monitors which watch status of the Load
  Balanced servers.

* A stack can be searched for resources based on their name, status,
  type, action, id and physcial_resource_id. And this feature is
  enabled both in REST API and CLI. For more details, please refer
  orchestration API document and heat CLI user guide.

* Adds a new feature to restrict update or replace of a resource
  when a stack is being updated. Template authors can set
  "restricted_actions" in the "resources" section of
  "resource_registry" in an environment file to restrict update or
  replace.

* New resource "OS::Senlin::Cluster" is added to create a cluster in
  senlin. A cluster is a group of homogeneous nodes.

* New resource "OS::Senlin::Node" is added to create a node in
  senlin. Node represents a physical object exposed by other OpenStack
  services.

* New resource "OS::Senlin::Receiver" is added to create a receiver
  in senlin. Receiver can be used to hook the engine to some external
  event/alarm sources.

* New resource "OS::Senlin::Profile" is added to create a profile in
  senlin. Profile is a module used for creating nodes, it's the
  definition of a node.

* New resource "OS::Senlin::Policy" is added to create a policy in
  senlin. Policy is a set of rules that can be checked and/or enforced
  when an Action is performed on a Cluster.

* The OS::Nova::Server now supports a new property
  user_data_update_policy, which may be set to either 'REPLACE'
  (default) or 'IGNORE' if you wish to allow user_data updates to be
  ignored on stack update. This is useful when managing a group of
  servers where changed user_data should apply to new servers without
  replacing existing servers.

* Multiple environment files may be passed to the server in the
  files dictionary along with an ordered list of the environment file
  names. The server will generate the stack's environment from the
  provided files rather than requiring the client to merge the
  environments together. This is optional; the existing interface to
  pass in the already resolved environment is still present.

* A new "OS::Neutron:SubnetPool" resource that helps in managing the
  lifecycle of neutron subnet pool. Availability of this resource
  depends on availability of neutron "subnet_allocation" API
  extension.

* Resource "OS::neutron::Subnet" now supports "subnetpool" optional
  property, that will automate the allocation of CIDR for the subnet
  from the specified subnet pool.

* Template validation is improved to ignore the given set of error
  codes. For example, heat will report template as invalid one, if it
  does not find any required OpenStack services in the cloud
  deployment and while authoring the template, user might wants to
  avoid such scenarios, so that (s)he could create valid template
  without bothering about run-time environments. Please refer the API
  documentation of validate template for more details.


Upgrade Notes
*************

* If upgrading with pre-icehouse stacks which contain resources that
  create users (such as OS::Nova::Server,
  OS::Heat::SoftwareDeployment, and OS::Heat::WaitConditionHandle), it
  is possible that the users will not be removed upon stack deletion
  due to the removal of a legacy fallback code path. In such a
  situation, these users will require manual removal.
