Release Highlights

• updating requirements files for unit and functional tests

See the changelog for the full list of changes in this release.

Caveats

Issue: After installing the F5 heat plugins, you may experience either of the following:

• Heat stack failure when trying to pull an image from glance (AttributeError: 'id')
• Failure to retrieve image information when looking at a specific image in Horizon (Project > Compute > Images)

Cause: One of the dependencies for the plugins - f5-icontrol-rest-python - requires requests >= 2.9.1. Installing f5-icontrol-rest-python often upgrades requests from an older version used in OpenStack Kilo. This upgrade may cause python-glanceclient to break.

Solution: Upgrade python-glanceclient to 1.1.0.

Release v1.0.1

Summary

This release provides functionality for iApp deployment and multi-tenant support in F5's Heat plugin resources. iApp deployment allows for heavy customization of a VE and this provides two methods to deploy iApp templates.

Features

• Deploying an iApp Template can be done by using one of two plugins: F5::Sys::iAppFullTemplate and F5::Sys::iAppCompositeTemplate. The former is for users who have downloaded a pre-created iApp template and wish to deploy it directly with it. The latter is for those users who wish to build their own iApp templates.
• Executing that iApp Template can be done by using the F5::Sys::iAppService plugin

Notes

• This functionality has only been testing against BigIP VE Version 11.6
• iApp deployments vary wildly. File an issue in this repo if any inconsistencies are found.
