[Bug 1192383] Re: Nova creates too many tokens when booting an image

 

I think the issue here is the neutronclient should handle re-using
tokens when possible.  In general I don't see why it should be the user
of a clients job to handle tokens.

** Also affects: python-neutronclient

** Changed in: nova

Title:
  Nova creates too many tokens when booting an image

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid
Status in Python client library for Neutron:
  New

Bug description:
  Observed in Grizzly stable branch that nova when booting an image creates lot many keystone tokens.
  On analysis found that tokens were created from quantum but nova called quantum-client APIs.

  Currently Keystone does not support token re-issue for same user credentials. Hence clients must re-use the tokens when possible.  
  Due to lot many tokens in keystone DB, when we run any keystone command that involves revoke_tokens keystone becomes unresponsive for a while as it has to iterate through all tokens in its DB.
