[Bug 1470950] Re: Version of ironicclient in vivid/UCA not sufficient to interact properly with Nova ironic virt driver

[Chris J Arges]

Hello Clint, or anyone else affected,

Accepted python-ironicclient into vivid-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-
ironicclient/0.5.1-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  Version of ironicclient in vivid/UCA not sufficient to interact
  properly with Nova ironic virt driver

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  New
Status in python-ironicclient package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in python-ironicclient source package in Vivid:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Users of OpenStack Ironic are not able to boot physical machines using the Nova/Ironic integration; this is due to a misconfigured minimum version requirement upstream for OpenStack Kilo.

  [Test Case]
  See original bug report

  [Regression Potential]
  Minimal; recommendation from upstream developers to move to 0.5.1 for Kilo compatibility.

  [Original Bug Report]
  The nova ironic driver in "Kilo" was updated to use a new parameter in ironicclient, "configdrive", which was added in v0.4.0 of python-ironicclient

  Test case

  #. Install kilo nova and kilo ironic
  #. Configure nova to use ironic virt
  #. nova boot instance
  #. Observe failure in nova-compute log showing incorrect "configdrive" parameter being used.
  #. update ironicclient to >=0.4.1
  #. restart nova-compute
  #. nova boot again
  #. instance should boot
