neutron::server::notifications settings are actually required

[Andrew Woodward]

both notify_nova_on_port_status_changes and notify_nova_on_port_data_changes default to True in icehouse, however unless you call neutron::server::notifications, you wont have the required credentials set. This results in odd errors when attempting to sent port notifications and can result in instances failing to start.

can you explain a bit more? Is it because we don't make sure some parameters are here?

I think it's still valid because Andrew is saying that the default values for those settings are now true, but unless you know to include neutron::server::notifications we are not properly providing nova credentials for those settings to work. Might just be a documentation thing where a user should either set them to false or include the notification class.

[Tobias Urdin (tobias-urdin)]

Setting as wont fix, a long time ago, neutron::server::notifications will set those to true (by default unless changed) but the neutron.conf default is also true so unless an super old setup had false hardcoded in the config this shouldn't be an issue.
