Upgrading Keystone

This is a high-level description of our upgrade strategy built around keystone-manage db_sync. It assumes that you are willing to have downtime of your control plane during the upgrade process. With keystone unavailable, no other OpenStack services will be able to authenticate requests, effectively preventing the rest of the control plane from functioning normally.

Note

The details of these steps are entirely dependent on the details of your specific deployment, such as your chosen application server and database management system. Use it only as a guide when implementing your own upgrade process.

  1. Plan!
    • Read and ensure you understand the release notes http://docs.openstack.org/releasenotes/keystone/ for the next release.
    • Resolve any outstanding deprecation warnings in your logs. Some deprecation cycles are as short as a single release, so it's possible to break a deployment if you leave any outstanding warnings. It might be a good idea to re-read the release notes for the previous release (or two!).
    • Prepare your new configuration files, including keystone.conf, logging.conf, policy.json, keystone-paste.ini, and anything else in /etc/keystone/, by customizing the corresponding files from the next release.
  2. Stop all keystone processes. Otherwise, you'll risk multiple releases of keystone trying to write to the database at the same time.
  3. Make a backup of your database. Keystone does not support downgrading the database, so restoring from a full backup is your only option for recovery in the event of an upgrade failure.
  4. Upgrade all keystone nodes to the next release.
  5. Update your configuration files (/etc/keystone/) with those corresponding from the latest release.
  6. Run keystone-manage db_sync from any one node to upgrade both the database schema and run any corresponding database migrations.
  7. Run keystone-manage doctor to diagnose symptoms of common deployment issues and receive instructions for resolving them.
  8. Start all keystone processes.
