Artom Lifshitz 7ace26e4bc post live migration: don't call Neutron needlessly
In bug 1879787, the call to network_api.get_instance_nw_info() in
_post_live_migration() on the source compute manager eventually calls
out to the Neutron REST API. If this fails, the exception is
unhandled, and the migrating instance - which is fully running on the
destination at this point - will never be updated in the database.
This update normally happens later in
post_live_migration_at_destination().

The network_info variable obtained from get_instance_nw_info() is used
for two things: notifications - which aren't critical - and unplugging
the instance's vifs on the source - which is very important!

It turns out that at the time of the get_instance_nw_info() call, the
network info in the instance info cache is still valid for unplugging
the source vifs. The port bindings on the destination are only
activated by the network_api.migrate_instance_start() [1] call that
happens shortly *after* the problematic get_instance_nw_info() call.
In other words, get_instance_nw_info() will always return the source
ports. Because of that, we can replace it with a call to
instance.get_network_info().

NOTE(artom) The functional test has been excised, as in stable/train
the NeutronFixture does not properly support live migration with
ports, making the test worthless. The work to support this was done as
part of bp/support-move-ops-with-qos-ports-ussuri, and starts at
commit b2734b5a9a.

NOTE(artom) The
test_post_live_migration_no_shared_storage_working_correctly and
test_post_live_migration_cinder_v3_api unit tests had to be adjusted
as part of the backport to pass with the new code.

OpenStack Nova

OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more), Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.

Use the following resources to learn more.

API

To learn how to use Nova's API, consult the documentation available online at:

For more information on OpenStack APIs, SDKs and CLIs in general, refer to:

Operators

To learn how to deploy and configure 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

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

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:

Other Information

During each Summit and Project Team Gathering, we agree on what the whole community wants to focus on for the upcoming release. The plans for nova can be found at:
