This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
The openstack sos plugin currently shipped by sos is incorrectly collecting the entire contents of /var/lib/nova including instance images. This obviously leads to bloated sosreports and needs to be corrected ASAP.
https://github.com/sosreport/sos/blob/fdfa635e9435809b23f8ac7d78e89728950ba096/sos/plugins/openstack.py#L184
Speaking to bmr about this the best course of action here is to remove this older openstack plugin and replace it with the plugins shipped in the sos-plugins-openstack.noarch package.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sos-3.0-23.el7.noarch.rpm
How reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run sosreport on a compute node with instances running.
Actual results:
Collected sosreport is bloated due to the contents on /var/lib/nova being collected.
Expected results:
Collected sosreport is not bloated and does not collect any instance images.
Additional info:
We need to update the openstack plugin in the sos-3.0 package to the 3.1 split-out versions and then drop the separate sos-plugins-openstack package for RHEL7.

Bryn, as discussed offline can we just rm -rf the legacy openstack plugin from sos in 7.0.z and discuss the future of the sos-plugins-openstack package separately?
Not sure we can separate them that way - if we go ahead with the planned rebase in 7.1 we'll be pulling in all the new broken-out OpenStack plugins to the RHEL sos package so we do need to figure out what we're going to do before we get there.
