Description Edu Alcaniz 2020-02-19 10:12:46 UTC 
Description of problem:
It seems that we provided documentation for 

Support added for templated cell mapping URLs in the Beta version
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/16.0-beta/html/release_notes/chap-top_new_features


Support added for templated cell mapping URLs
Director now provides cell mapping URLs for the database and message queue URLs as templates, by using variables to represent values such as the user name and password. The following properties, defined in the Compute configuration file of the director, specify the variable values:

database_connection: [database]/connection
transport_url: [DEFAULT]/transport_url

This is not documented later in the GA docs version

Although OSP16.0 is EOL, this still applies to OSP16.1.

Essentially this is a new feature that we missed for OSP16.0.

Upstream documentation in description.
Comment 5 David Vallee Delisle 2022-02-23 16:24:06 UTC 
There's no point in documenting this imho as it should all be handled by director automatically. Our cell doc already covers cell management and templated URL do not need to be exposed to the operator as it's all handled by tripleo. We probably don't support the manual cell creation as described in the upstream doc, which is the only usecase where users need to be aware of templated url.
