From 13a60622601a3fc8535c0ee8c10a1da2d0ea928b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Dake <stdake@cisco.com> Date: Tue, 8 Mar 2016 14:46:45 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Add documentation about critical data loss There is a critical data loss in Liberty 1.0.0. It is only fair we warn Operators not to use 1.0.0 and then revert this change once 1.1.0 is released.

In +this scenario, Docker pulls a new container, and the new container doesn't +contain the data from the old container. Kolla stable/liberty and Kolla +1.0.0 are not to be used at this time, as they result in *critical data loss +problems*. + +Resolution +---------- +To rectify this problem, we plan to have a release of 1.1.0-rc1 on +April 1st, 2016. We plan our final releae of 1.1.0 on April 15th, 2016. The +work going into this version will be: + +* Move forward to Docker 1.10.z as a minimum dependency. +* Move to named volumes to remove data loss scenario. +* Backport upgrade playbooks from Mitaka so Operators may effectively manage + OSSA and CVE advisories in their OpenStack cloud without being forced to + migrate to Mitaka. +* Backport thin-containers for Neutron agents. +* Backport Kolla's docker integration module to remove the hard pin on + Docker 1.8.2. +* The Kolla community expects the docker containers themselves to be + minimally modified.
