Upgrade Notes

• The following commands have been migrated to SDK:

  • endpoint create

  • endpoint delete

  • endpoint list

  • endpoint show

  • endpoint set

• Support for the Block Storage (Cinder) v1 API has been officially removed as it had been broken for some time. If you haven’t noticed then you likely don’t need to do anything. However, in the unlikely event that your cloud is using the Block Storage v1 API - or incorrectly advertises the Block Storage v1 API - consider overriding the API version to use v2 as this behaves very similarly. It may also be necessary to set an endpoint override for the Block Storage API if your clouds service catalog is not configured correctly. For example:

  example:
    regions:
      - name: regionOne
        values:
          block_storage_endpoint_override: 'https://blockstorage.api.cloud.example/'
    volume_api_version: 2
  

  If using a public cloud provider, there may also be a profile already published that sets these. These are listed in the Vendor Support doc. For example:

  example:
    profile: rackspace
  

  Alternatively, consider use versions of OSC < 3.19 and python-cinderclient < 5.0 (both Stein), since these were the last versions to fully support Cinder v1.
