Service Tokens
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Charmed OpenStack configures the deployed services to send service tokens now.
This change benefits users in, at least, the following situations:
* For security reasons, the service token allows the control plane to
differentiate when a privileged operation is issued by another service (e.g.
Nova requesting a volume operation to Cinder) or by a cloud user.
* Long running job failures, if an operation takes longer than the life of the
user's token, there will be queries failing and preventing the completion of
the user's requested operation.
For more details see `Using service tokens in Cinder`_ and bug `LP #1992840`_
