Split out from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1396227

Provide a global ‘lock down your overcloud’ feature/setting

As an integrated feature or as a externally documented procedure, provide a way to prohib major overcloud changes. Externally documented methods could do something with IPMI passwords or PXE network traffic to prevent redeployments.

Comment 4 Ben Nemec 2017-08-09 15:35:04 UTC
Note that we already document a method to prevent deletion of the overcloud: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/11/html/director_installation_and_usage/chap-performing_tasks_after_overcloud_creation#sect-Protecting_the_Overcloud_from_Removal

This wouldn't stop an admin from deleting a nova instance or a neutron port, although a similar technique could probably be used for those services' policy.json.

Comment 5 Jaromir Coufal 2017-08-10 20:07:19 UTC
Pushing out of OSP13, the locks will need to be revisited in other services. This bug can serve as tracker for future work.

Comment 6 Doron Caspin 2021-04-30 20:11:00 UTC
After review between PM and engineering we have decided to close this RFE due to a lack of capacity. Please reopen this issue if you feel it still needs to be addressed and request re evaluation.
