Comment 3 Eoghan Glynn 2015-03-12 12:25:30 EDT

Should backport to stable/juno and get into rhos6/A3

Comment 4 Victor Stinner 2015-03-16 11:03:59 EDT

I backported the change from master to Juno:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/164713/

Comment 6 Victor Stinner 2015-10-20 08:34:13 EDT

My backport to Juno has been merged: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/164713/

I expected it to be included in OSP 6 thanks to regular rebases, but I missed the fact that there are no more Juno releases :-/ 2014.2.3 (April 2015) is the last release, whereas my change was merged in May 2015.

I ported the change downstream to OSP 6: https://code.engineering.redhat.com/gerrit/#/c/59767/

Note: OSP 7 has already the fix.

Comment 7 Victor Stinner 2015-11-12 10:19:11 EST

openstack-nova-2014.2.3-37.el7ost includes the backport of the bugfix.

Comment 9 Itzik Brown 2015-12-21 05:40:40 EST

Liberty Seems to be fine.
When trying to test in Juno - got BZ#1293266.

Comment 10 Joe H. Rahme 2016-01-07 09:07:26 EST

Managed to install Juno through the workaround mentioned in BZ#1293266.

Code has been properly backported to package:

Name        : openstack-nova
Version     : 2014.2.3
Release     : 42.el7ost
Repo        : rhelosp-6.0-puddle/x86_64
