First reported on Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/tripleo/+bug/1921714 The healthcheck invoking "lsof" seem to load the server, especially when multiple containers rely on it. The following upstream patch[1] changes how the healthcheck_port is working so that we don't rely on lsof anymore. After multiple tests, it seems to be lighter and faster than the original one, thus preventing the CPU spikes. Note there's still one healthcheck relying on lsof, but it's not as used as healthcheck_port (only for one nova container, and soon-to-be deprecated services such as zaqar). This BZ is just in order to allow a clean backport downstream. [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/tripleo-common/+/785326
