Hello guys, As for TripleO+Upgrades, Kolla is one of ways to help with that. Keep in mind that package upgrades also means dependency upgrades, and that can break things unless we upgrade whole stack at once. No downtime upgrades will basically mean that we need to decouple upgrade process to several steps to ensure per node (and maybe later, with Kolla per service/per node) upgrades. I think we could achieve that with some clever dependency tinkering in heat (start upgrading resource X only if resource Y is already upgraded), or clever usage of breakpoints? Maybe to introduce something like "inprog quota on resource group" -> during upgrade only 1 of 5 resources in group can be played with, after it's finish this lock is lifted and next resource can start upgrade? I think lock like this might make sense for other stacks as well, if we want to minimize impact of stack upgrade. Thoughts?
