[Bug 1370033] Re: Admin should be able to manually select the active instance of a HA router
I just adjusted the status and tags to reflect what has been discussed
on the review [1]. Maybe we need to discuss this again in the drivers
team meeting.

Title:
Admin should be able to manually select the active instance of a HA
router
Status in neutron:
New
Bug description:
The admin can see where is the active replica of an HA router. Once this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1401095
Is solved, the admin will be able to manually move HA routers from one agent to the next. Combining the two, it gives a decent if not ideal way to move the master by unscheduling it from the master node thereby moving it a backup:
For example if hosts A and B are hosting router R, and router R is
active on host A, you can unschedule it from host A, invoking a
failover and causing B to become the new active replica. You then
schedule it to host A once more and it'll host the router again, this
time as standby.
This RFE is about adding the ability to manually move the master state
of a router from one agent to another explicitly. I think this can
only be done with an API modification, or even a new API verb just for
HA routers. I think that any API modifications need a slim spec and an
RFE bug is not enough.
