The new stable upper-constraints file is only available after the openstack/requirements repository is branched. This will happen around the RC1 timeframe. Recheck and merge this change once the requirements repository has been branched. The CI system will work with this patch before the requirements repository is branched because zuul configues the job to run with a local copy of the file and defaults to the master branch. However, accepting the patch will break the test configuration on developers' local systems, so please wait until after the requirements repository is branched to merge the patch.

Mistral
Mistral is a workflow service. Most business processes consist of multiple distinct interconnected steps that need to be executed in a particular order in a distributed environment. A user can describe such a process as a set of tasks and their transitions. After that, it is possible to upload such a description to Mistral, which will take care of state management, correct execution order, parallelism, synchronization and high availability.
Mistral also provides flexible task scheduling so that it can run a process according to a specified schedule (for example, every Sunday at 4.00pm) instead of running it immediately. In Mistral terminology such a set of tasks and relations between them is called a workflow.

If Mistral authentication is enabled, provide the information about OpenStack auth to environment variables. Type:
$ export OS_AUTH_URL=http://<Keystone_host>:5000/v2.0
$ export OS_USERNAME=admin
$ export OS_TENANT_NAME=tenant
$ export OS_PASSWORD=secret
$ export OS_MISTRAL_URL=http://<Mistral host>:8989/v2 (optional, by
default URL=http://localhost:8989/v2)and in the case that you are authenticating against keystone over https:
$ export OS_CACERT=<path_to_ca_cert>
