Daviey,

I pointed this out to Pavo as well a few weeks ago.  I’m not sure if it 
mattered or not.

cryptography

Hey Steve,

All of the credential generation is optional right?  I mean, as far as kolla is 
concerned - it doesn't *need* to generate the passwords... If 
/etc/kolla/passwords.yml is created outside of kolla-genpwd, then kolla isn't 
creating any credentials itself and the algorithm, entropy and policy is 
transparent to kolla.

Ok,

Pavo has told me he has exceptions in place for everything related to Kolla.  
He says as long as we don’t use MD5, he is good to go for a 232 node deploy 
with more to follow (assuming Kolla works out of the box at that scale - we 
have only tested 123 node scale).

We do some basic PRNG to generate passwords, and some PKCS#11 (iirc) algos to 
generate passwords, and we also generate some ssh public/private keys.

Hope the security context helps.

Thanks everyone on his thread for providing guidance.  RobC++ on article.
