+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #816316 +++ Description of problem: Presently upstream OpenStack primarily utilizes mysql for its database. We'd like to expand this to include postgres in addition. There are probably some integration issues/small problems with running Postgres w/ Essex today, and these bugs will need to be tracked and individually resolved separately. This bug is specifically for tracking the overall support of Postgres, and as such is a TestOnly bug. --- Additional comment from Perry Myers on 2012-04-25 15:14:39 EDT --- Related bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/953159 https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bugs?field.tag=postgresql
But Perry, Swift does not use OpenStack's main database, except indirectly through Keystone. What is it that I need to do here, specifically? Verify that Keystone auth works in Swift when backend is Postgres?
If Swift doesn't use a database at all, then this bug can be closed as NOTABUG, so just go ahead and do that. I wasn't aware that Swift didn't use a database in any fashion
