OpenStack Charms 2023.2 (Bobcat)

The 2023.2 (Bobcat) release of the OpenStack Charms is now available. Please see the release notes for full details:

Highlights

  • OpenStack 2023.2 (Bobcat) OpenStack Bobcat is now supported on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (via UCA) and Ubuntu 23.10 natively.

  • Two charms promoted to stable Both the watcher and watcher-dashboard charms have been promoted to stable.

  • Keystone role cache configuration The keystone charm now supports configuring the Keystone ‘[role] cache_time’ option using a new ‘role-cache-expiration’ charm configuration option. If not set, this defaults to the global expiration_time (configurable by the ‘dogpile-cache-expiration’ charm configuration option).

  • Designate-bind allow-transfer configuration The designate-bind charm now supports configuring the BIND9 allow-transfer option. If not set, the corresponding feature is disabled.

  • Improved Vault snap channel refresh The refresh mechanism for the Vault snap managed within the vault charm has been improved. It now properly stops the service before performing a snap refresh.

  • Glance custom image properties The glance charm now supports configuring automatic custom image properties for imported images.

  • magnum charm: new option to expose cluster_user_trust The magnum charm has gained a new configuration option (cluster-user-trust) to control whether to assign a trust to the cluster user or not (upstream cluster_user_trust option).

  • nova-cloud-controller charm: new relation to openstack-dashboard A new relation informs the cloud of what hosts and IP addresses that can potentially access the OpenStack Dashboard. The nova-cloud-controller units use this information to configure the nova-serialproxy daemon to allow dashboard requests from web browsers.

  • Documentation updates The Charm Guide and the Deploy Guide were updated for OpenStack 2023.2 and Juju 3.x. Regular improvements and bug fixes.
