Public bug reported:

The help on the [placement_database] config options is wrong, it
mentions Ocata 14.0.0 but 14.0.0 is actually Newton, Ocata was 15.0.0:

"# The *Placement API Database* is a separate database which is used for the new
# placement-api service. In Ocata release (14.0.0) this database is optional:"

It also has some scary words about configuring it with a separate
database so you don't have to deal with data migration issues later to
migrate data from the nova_api database to a separate placement
database, but the placement_database options are not actually used in
code. They will be when this blueprint is complete:
