Fixed In Version: openstack-neutron-2013.2-0.3.b2.el6ost Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
The following changes in configuration have been made as part of moving to the oslo library, and affect all OpenStack Networking (Neutron) plugins. - the 'DATABASE' section in the plugin-specific ini files has been deprecated in favor of a 'database' section in neutron.conf. - 'sql_' prefixed options have been deprecated in favor of options that do not include the prefix (e.g. sql_connection becomes connection). - 'reconnect_interval' option has been deprecated in favor of 'retry_interval'. - 'sql_dbpool_enable' option is no longer supported. - 'sqlalchemy_pool_size' has been deprecated in favor of 'min_pool_size' and 'max_pool_size'. - 'sqlalchemy_max_overflow' has been deprecated in favor of 'max_overflow'. - 'sqlalchemy_pool_timeout' has been deprecated in favor of 'pool_timeout'. The changes are backwards compatible, so the previous configuration format will still work.

Description Maru Newby 2013-07-19 01:05:22 UTC
The oslo library provides database helpers that can be reused across projects.  The switch should be transparent to the end user due to support for backwards-compatible configuration, but the new oslo-specific configuration will need to be documented.

Comment 5 Maru Newby 2013-07-30 17:31:11 UTC
Ofer - There isn't a need for special testing.  If the higher-level neutron tests work, then the db implementation works.  This bug is mainly to ensure that the docs are updated to reflect changes to configuration.

There is no user-visible functional change associated with this bug, but the configuration format has been changed in a backwards-compatible way.
