it turns out that the 149 migration was overly agressive in its IPAddress conversion, as we actually have a few columns that are really CIDR values. This means that 39 chars isn't enough space to store even a normalized IPv6 cidr in the worst case (you need 4 more to support /127). We must also normalize IPv6 address cidrs otherwise 43 chars isn't long enough. This was more of a problem in theory, than in practice, as real IPv6 addresses rarely are non compressible. This adds a migration to bump up the CIDR columns to 43 characters. There is an infinitessimal chance that someone using mysql and long IPv6 values might loose data in 149 because of truncation. This doesn't address that, which would require modifying 149. The native pg CIDR column type is not used because it would require additional scrubbing of the data as CIDR is invalid if any host bits are set (and it will fail on type conversion).

OpenStack Nova README
OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of virtualization technologies, including KVM, Xen, LXC, VMWare, and more. In addition to its native API, it includes compatibility with the commonly encountered Amazon EC2 and S3 APIs.
OpenStack Nova is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. The full terms and conditions of this license are detailed in the LICENSE file.
Nova primarily consists of a set of Python daemons, though it requires and integrates with a number of native system components for databases, messaging and virtualization capabilities.
To keep updated with new developments in the OpenStack project follow @openstack on Twitter.
To learn how to deploy OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation available online at:
In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
Developers wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:
Developers should also join the discussion on the mailing list, at:
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests. Further developer focused documentation is available at:
