Stable team, The Octavia team merged a patch in master [1] that fixed an issue where load balancers could be deleted whenever queue_event_streamer driver is enabled and RabbitMQ goes down [2]. As this is a critical bug, we would like to backport as much back as possible. The question is whether these backports comply with the stable policy because it adds two new configuration options and deprecates one. The patch was prepared so that the deprecated option has precedence if set over the other two. Reading the review guidelines [3], I only see "Incompatible config file changes" as relevant, but the patch doesn't seem to go against that. We had a patch that added a new config option backported to Queens that raised some concern, so we'd like to be on the safe side this time ;-) We'd appreciate guidance to whether such backports are acceptable or not.
