** Also affects: horizon
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Changed in: horizon
Assignee: (unassigned) => Justin Pomeroy (jpomero)
** Description changed:
The metadata definitions in etc/metadefs allow each namespace to be
associated with a resource type in OpenStack. Now that Horizon is
supporting adding metadata to instances (just got in during the mitaka
cycle - so unrealeased), I realized that we used OS::Nova::Instance
instead of OS::Nova::Server in Glance. This doesn’t align with Heat [0]
or Searchlight [1].
+
+ Glance Issue:
There are a couple of metadef files that have OS::Nova::Instance that
need to change to OS::Nova::Server. I see also that OS::Nova:Instance
is in one of the db scripts. That script simply adds some initial
"resource types" to the database. [3]. It should be noted that there is
no hard dependency on that resource type in the DB script. You can add
new resource types at any time via API or JSON files and they are
automatically added.
I'm not sure if the change to the db script needs to be done in a
different patch or not, but that can easily be accommodated.
+ Horizon Issue:
+
+ The instance update metadata action and NG launch instance should
+ retrieve OS::Nova::Server instead. The Horizon patch shouldn't merge
+ until the glance patch merges, but there is not an actual hard
+ dependency between the two.
