[Bug 1770549] Re: Set instance's description failed

 

This is invalid for the reason you state in comment #1.  More
specifically: when you call the API with versions <2.19, you get the
name as the description; when you call with >=2.19, you get the user-
supplied description or None.  We can't change that behavior, per the
rules of API versioning.

So really the "problem" is that whereas novaclient negotiates the
highest mutually supported version with the server, openstackclient
defaults to the earliest.  But that version can be overridden via option
or env, and that's the correct "solution".

Now, if you're saying that openstack client doesn't yet have support for
user-settable descriptions... that's a bug against openstackclient which
would need to be solved there.

** Changed in: nova
       Status: In Progress => Invalid

Title:
  Set instance's description failed

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Create an instance, using novaclient and openstackclient will get different value for the description.
  novaclient: description is None.
  openstackclient: description is instance's name.

  Using novaclient the API request version is 2.53, but the openstackclient is 2.1.
  If we wants to add description using openstackclient(not implement yet), the instance's description will get the instance's name forever.
