Open Stack

The Zed release of the OpenStack Charms is now available. Please see the
Release notes for full details:

https://docs.openstack.org/charm-guide/latest/release-notes/zed.html

--

This is the second release since the OpenStack Charms project changed from
a time-based release to one based on charm payload versions. Individual
charms are no longer developed to work with every supported OpenStack
release. Charms now leverage Charmhub tracks, each of which determines a
supported payload. See the following resource for details:

https://docs.openstack.org/charm-guide/latest/project/charm-delivery.html

== Highlights ==

* Channel migrations
Much effort in this cycle was directed at migrating previous OpenStack
releases (Queens through Xena) to channels in the Charmhub store.

* OpenStack Zed
OpenStack Zed is now supported on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (via UCA) and Ubuntu
22.10 natively.

* OVN 22.03 on Focal
There is better support for OVN 22.03 on Focal via a new OVN specific UCA
pocket.

* COS Lite support in the ceph-mon charm
Support for sending metrics to the prometheus-k8s charm in the COS Lite
observability stack has been added to the ceph-mon charm. Consequently,
support for the prometheus2 charm is now deprecated.

* NVIDIA vGPU Virtual Workstation
The Nova vGPU features in the Nova Compute charms were validated for use as
the graphical display driver for Virtual Workstation usage.

* Documentation updates
Documentation highlights include:

  - Completion of Deploy Guide to Charm Guide content migration
  - Improvements to:
    - Getting Started tutorial
    - Documentation contributor content
    - Upgrade pages
    - OVN pages
    - SR-IOV page
    - Charm delivery page
