Hi Saverio, We completely understand that operators are still on older versions of OpenStack and we are executing against the OpenStack release series [1] and we adhere to the support phases as outlined in [2]. So any new features will only be added to Pike whereas bug fixes will be carried back right now Ocata and Newton will only see Security Patches. If this doesn’t meet your needs I would encourage you to get those guidelines changed. We also frequently seek input from operators on new features and/or pain points. I am curious what the use case is for a non-scalable/non-HA load balancer like the namespace/haproxy driver in production.
Us deprecating LBaaS V2 won’t relieve us from our obligation to provide bug fixes and security fixes to the previous versions - furthermore we learned from the LBaaS V1 migration and we are committed to providing migration scripts for Octavia and potentially the namespace driver. We might need to do a better job articulating our migration strategy.

So if we look at deployments with more than 100 servers NO ONE IS USING NEWTON yet. And I scream this loud. Everyone is still in Liberty or Mitaka. I am just struggling to upgrade to LBaaSv2 to hear that is already going into deprecation. The feature Zhi is proposing is important also for me once I go to production. I would encourage devs to listen more to operators feedback. Also you devs cant just ignore that users are running still Liberty/Mitaka so you need to change something in this way of working or all the users will run away. thank you Saverio On 16/03/17 16:26, Kosnik, Lubosz wrote: > Hello Zhi, > Just one small information.
