Description Nir Magnezi 2017-11-19 13:17:10 UTC

Description of problem:
=======================
OpenStack Octavia (network load balancing as a service) intends to make use of HAProxy 1.6+ external-check to fix an important functionality bug mentioned here: https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2001280
The fix itself: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/518632

P.S.
Will this eventually bump the version of haproxy in the CentOS guest image?

Comment 2 Wei Shi 2017-11-27 02:21:11 UTC

Hi Nir,
  If all you request is just to bump haproxy version to 1.6+ so CentOS cloud-image would get the updated haproxy package, we can change the component to haproxy because there is nothing rhel-guest-image could do.
  But if you also want to add haproxy to rhel-guest-image(currently rhel-guest-image don't have it), please open a new bug and move this bug to haproxy.

Comment 3 Nir Magnezi 2017-12-11 13:07:12 UTC

Hi Wei Shi,

Thank you for your response.
Indeed what I seek is to bump the version of haproxy itself, and not to add it to the rhel-guest-image. Thus changed the component to haproxy.

Thanks,
Nir

Comment 4 Ryan O'Hara 2017-12-11 17:14:04 UTC

This can't happen in RHEL. There are backward compatibility issues that could cause existing haproxy-1.5 users experience problems if we rebased to a major release of haproxy.
