upgrade:
- |
The ``nova-conductor`` service now needs access to the Placement service
in the case of forcing a destination host during a live migration. Ensure
the ``[placement]`` section of nova.conf for the ``nova-conductor`` service
is filled in.
fixes:
- |
When forcing a specified destination host during live migration, the
scheduler is bypassed but resource allocations will still be made in the
Placement service against the forced destination host. If the resource
allocation against the destination host fails, the live migration operation
will fail, regardless of the ``force`` flag being specified in the API.
The guest will be unchanged on the source host. For more details, see
`bug 1712008`_.
