Should I run the experimental queue jobs on this change?
========================================================
Because we can't run all CI jobs in the check and gate pipelines, some
jobs can be executed on demand, thanks to the experimental pipeline.
To run the experimental jobs, you need to comment your Gerrit review
with "check experimental".
The experimental jobs aim to test specific features, such as LXC containers
or DVR with multiple nodes. Also, it might be useful to run them when
we want to test backward compatibility with tools that deploy OpenStack
outside Devstack (e.g. TripleO, etc). They can produce a non-voting
feedback of whether the system continues to work when we deprecate
or remove some options or features in Nova.
The experimental queue can also be used to test that new CI jobs are
correct before making them voting.
