--- deprecations: - | Nova used to support the concept that ``service managers`` were replaceable components. There are many config options where you can replace a manager by specifying a new class. This concept is deprecated in Mitaka as are the following config options. * [cells] manager * metadata_manager * compute_manager * console_manager * consoleauth_manager * cert_manager * scheduler_manager Many of these will be removed in Newton. Users of these options are encouraged to work with Nova upstream on any features missing in the default implementations that are needed.
