Comment 1 for bug 1717222

I have few remarks about this bug. IMO it is not as simple as it looks like. It is easy to change add something like https://github.com/openstack/solum/blob/master/contrib/lp-cedarish/docker/swift-handler.py#L46 to sahara's code, but this will not fix original issue.

First of all, I would like to say that swift has its own definition of region: regions are used to store replicas in different geographical locations [1]. Swift regions configuration is stored in swift ring.

On the other hand, openstack looks at a region as a separate openstack deployments with some common services (like Horizon and Keystone) [2]

It is essential to note that it is impossible to configure an openstack region for swift with fuel, since we use the region only to describe keystone's connection. [3]

IMO this bug is kind of incomplete, since there is no information about the way the customer configured a region for swift. I will ask Nikita to comment on it.
