One of the things that came up in a logging Forum session is how much
effort operators are having to put into reconstructing flows for things
like server boot when they go wrong, as every time we jump a service
barrier the request-id is reset to something new. The back and forth
between Nova / Neutron and Nova / Glance would be definitely well served
by this. Especially if this is something that's easy to query in elastic
search.

The last time this came up, some people were concerned that trusting
request-id on the wire was concerning to them because it's coming from
random users. We're going to assume that's still a concern by some.
However, since the last time that came up, we've introduced the concept
of "service users", which are a set of higher priv services that we are
using to wrap user requests between services so that long running
request chains (like image snapshot). We trust these service users
enough to keep on trucking even after the user token has expired for
this long run operations. We could use this same trust path for
request-id chaining.

So, the basic idea is, services will optionally take an inbound
X-OpenStack-Request-ID which will be strongly validated to the format
(req-$uuid). They will continue to always generate one as well. When the

Do all of our services use that format for request ID? I thought Heat
used something added on to a UUID, or at least longer than a UUID?

FWIW I don't recall ever hearing this.

Don't know, now is a good time to speak up.

seems to indicate that it's using the format everyone else is using.

Swift does things a bit differently with suffixes, but they aren't using
the common middleware.

I've done code look throughs on nova/glance/cinder/neutron/keystone, but
beyond that folks will need to speak up as to where this might break
down. At worst failing validation just means you end up in the old
(current) behavior.

OK. I vaguely remembered something from the early days of ceilometer
trying to collect those notifications, but maybe I'm confusing it with
something else. I've added [heat] to the subject line to get that team's
attention for input.
