MidoNet can't be installed at all with current version of THT

[Alejandro Andreu]

Long before the puppet-midonet Puppet module was held under the openstack umbrella the old Puppet module[1] did more than just installing MidoNet; it installed Zookeeper and Cassandra too. Not only that but the code was not Puppet 4.x compatible either. Even if the old manifests were used now MidoNet couldn't be installed due to broken URLs and so on.

There has been a lot of work in the new module[2] (openstack/puppet-midonet), which enables users to install MidoNet 5.x (and only MidoNet). There is a separate repository[3] to install Zookeeper, Cassandra and Java if a user wishes to do so using our Puppet modules too. Moreover, only MidoNet 5.x works with the recent versions of OpenStack.

MidoNet needs to comply with the new composable services model, hence requiring significant refactoring in tripleo-heat-templates and puppet-tripleo.

    Delete MidoNet deprecated classes and their tests

    MidoNet no longer uses the API component. It has been renamed/refactored
    to "cluster" as it can be seen on the docs at
    https://blog.midonet.org/introducing-midonet-cluster-services/

    Also there is no need to have a Cassandra and Zookeeper dedicated
    classes, as we leverage this through the use of the midonet_openstack
    puppet module.

The Closes-Bug patch for this has had a -2 since the end of Ocata. I don't see it landing for Pike either, but if that is desired then an FFE will be needed.

There are patches outstanding for this that haven't been merged which are in merge conflict. It seems that interest has fallen off. I don't think this qualifies as a High bug anymore so I'm leaving it open but dropping to Low.

Is anybody planning on working on this?

[Alejandro Andreu (d-alejandro)]

I'm sorry, this is not going to be worked on in the end despite the initial efforts. Could you please set this bug to "Won't Fix"? I don't have enough permissions to do so.
