** Changed in: nova Status: In Progress => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo! Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1250848 Title: Nova does not always need to authenticate with Neutron as admin to get instance network info Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova): Invalid Bug description: Currently _build_nw_info_model always authenticated with Neutron using the configured Neutron admin credentials, but often it is called in the context of the user that owns the Instance (for example at the end of allocate_for_instance()) and so this additional authentication is unnecessary.
