Hi, Moshe,
I think you can try the following way to change the isolation_level of a
specific transaction when using oslo.db. We apply it to solve the
concurrency issue happen in Senlin project. Hope that will be helpful.
1272 session = _session(context)
1273 session.begin()
1274 session.connection(
1275 execution_options={'isolation_level': 'SERIALIZABLE'})
