The existing nova-api to placement database migration shell scripts don't include the post task to stamp the placement database to the (b4ed3a175331) version. Without that stamping, syncing the DB to the current version fails on having the initial upgrade: (initial) -> (b4ed3a175331). This is because it assumes the initial DB has no contents and tries to create the tables again. This patch changes the shell scripts to include that stamping task rather than leaving it as operators' manual duties to safely bring the placement DB under alembic version control. With this change, the shell scripts will need to be executed under the following condition: - The placement is already installed to execute `placement-manage *` - The placement cli can access the placement's database, for example, by reffering to the `[placement_database]` section in the `placement.conf`.

Warning: This repository is currently in a state of flux as the placement service is extracted from nova. While that is happening this repository is not yet fully working.
If you are viewing this README on GitHub, please be aware that placement development happens on OpenStack git and OpenStack gerrit.

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:
For the time being bugs in placement should be created in the Nova bug tracker with a tag of ``placement``.
Developers
