I know that Neutron LBaaS V1 is still available in Liberty and functional, and at this point I assume its in Mitaka (simply judging the code not the actual functionality). From a production stand point I think its safe to say we can keep supporting the V1 implementation for a while however we'll be stuck once V1 is deprecated should there not be a proper migration path for old and new LBs at that time.
I'd also echo the request from Kevin for a share on some of the migration scripts that have been made such that we can all benefit from the prior art that has already been created. @Eichberger If not possible to share the "proprietary" scripts outright, maybe we could get an outline of the process / whitepaper on what's been done so we can work on to getting the needful migrations baked into Octavia proper? (/me speaking as someone with no experience in Octavia nor the breath of work that I may be asking for however I am interested in making things better for deployers, operators, developers) -- Kevin Carter IRC: cloudnull ________________________________________ From: Fox, Kevin M <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, January 26, 2016 5:38 PM To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [openstack-ansible] LBaaSv2 / Octavia support Thats very very unfortunate. :/ Lbaas team, (or any other team), please never do this again. :/ so does liberty/mitaka at least support using the old v1? it would be nice to have a different flag day to upgrade the load balancers then the upgrade day to get from kilo to release next... Any chance you can share your migration scripts? I'm guessing we're not the only two clouds that need to migrate things. hmm.... Would it be possible to rename the tables to something else and tweak a few lines of code so they could run in parallel? Or is there deeper incompatibility then just the same table schema being interpreted differently?

Hence, at HPE we have some proprietary script which takes the V1 database tables and migrates them to the V2 format. After that the v2 agent based driver will pick it up and create those load balancers. To migrate agent based driver to Octavia we are thinking self migration since people van use the same (ansible) scripts and point them at Octavia.
