7.1.0
^^^^^

OSprofiler support was added to the client. That makes possible to
trigger Nova operation trace generation from the CLI.


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

* A new "--profile" option was added to allow Nova profiling from
  the CLI. If the user wishes to trace a nova boot request he or she
  needs to type the following command -- "nova --profile <secret_key>
  boot --image <image> --flavor <flavor> <vm_name>", where
  "secret_key" should match one of the keys defined in nova.conf. As a
  result of this operation additional information regarding "trace_id"
  will be printed, that can be used to generate human-friendly html
  report -- "osprofiler trace show --html <trace_id> --out
  trace.html". To enable profiling, user needs to have osprofiler
  installed in the local environment via "pip install osprofiler".

* Provides a public unified interface 'get_console_url' for classes
  'novaclient.v2.servers.Server' and
  'novaclient.v2.servers.ServerManager'. Users (Heat, OpenStack-client
  and etc.) can call this public interface instead of calling the
  individual methods to retrieve a console url of a particular
  protocol.

* Added support for microversion 2.41 which shows the aggregate UUID
  in CLI output when listing, creating, showing, updating, setting
  metadata, and adding or removing hosts from an aggregate.


Security Issues
***************

* OSprofiler support, that was added during the Ocata release cycle,
  requires passing of trace information between various OpenStack
  services. This information is signed by one of the HMAC keys defined
  in nova.conf file. That means that only someone who knows this key
  is able to send the proper header to trigger profiling.


Bug Fixes
*********

* Fix an ability to authenticate using Keystone Token which was
  broken with novaclient 7.0.0 release.

* The contents of the list_extensions.py file was moved from contrib
  to v2 directory in release 7.0.0, and a stub importing the objects
  from the new location was left in its place for backward
  compatibility, together with a warning informing about the new
  location. However, the stub incorrectly assigned the ListExtResource
  class to the ListExtManager name. This has now been fixed, and
  ListExtManager is used instead.
