I'm wondering if moving to using docker labels is a better way of
solving the various issue being raised here.
We can maintain a tag for each of master/ocata/newton/etc, and on each
image have a LABEL with info such as 'pbr of service/pbr of kolla/link
to CI of build/etc'. I believe this solves all points Kevin mentioned
except rollback, which afaik, OpenStack doesn't support anyway. It also
solves people's concerns with what is actually in the images, and is a
standard Docker mechanism.
Also as Michal mentioned, if users are concerned about keeping images,
they can tag and stash them away themselves. It is overkill to maintain
hundreds of (imo meaningless) tags in a registry, the majority of which
people don't care about - they only want the latest of the branch
they're deploying.
Every detail of a running Kolla system can be easily deduced by scanning
across nodes and printing the labels of running containers,
functionality which can be shipped by Kolla. There are also methods for
fetching labels of remote images[0][1] for users wishing to inspect what
they are upgrading to.

My dear Kollegues,
Today we had discussion about how to properly name/tag images being
pushed to dockerhub. That moved towards general discussion on revision
mgmt.
Problem we're trying to solve is this:
If you build/push images today, your tag is 4.0
if you do it tomorrow, it's still 4.0, and will keep being 4.0 until
we tag new release.
But image built today is not equal to image built tomorrow, so we
would like something like 4.0.0-1, 4.0.0-2.
While we can reasonably detect history of revisions in dockerhub,
local env will be extremely hard to do.
I'd like to ask you for opinions on desired behavior and how we want
to deal with revision management in general.
Cheers,
Michal
What's in the images, kolla? Other OpenStack components?
Yes, each image will typically contain all software required for one
OpenStack service, including dependencies from OpenStack projects or the
base OS. Installed via some combination of git, pip, rpm, deb.
Where does the
4.0.0 come from?
Its the python version string from the kolla project itself, so ultimately
I think pbr. I'm suggesting that we switch to using the
version.release_string[1] which will tag with the longer version we use for
other dev packages.

Why are you tagging the artifacts containing other projects with the
version number of kolla, instead of their own version numbers and some
sort of incremented build number?
This is what we do in Kolla and I'd say logistics and simplicity of
implementation. Tags are more than just information for us. We have to
But for a user consuming the image, they have no idea what version of
nova is in it because the version on the image is tied to a different
application entirely.
That's easy enough to check tho (just docker exec into container and
do pip freeze). On the other hand you'll have information that "this
set of various versions was tested together" which is arguably more
important.
deploy these images and we have to know a tag. Combine that with clear
separation of build phase from deployment phase (really build phase is
entirely optional thanks to dockerhub), you'll end up with either
automagical script that will have to somehow detect correct version
mix of containers that works with each other, or hand crafted list
that will have 100+ versions hardcoded.
Incremental build is hard because builds are atomic and you never
really know how many times images were rebuilt (also local rebuilt vs
dockerhub-pushed rebuild will cause collisions in tags).
