update_security_group_rule always fails due to read only attributes of security rule

[Hardik Italia]

Security group rule update functionality is not available becasue all the attributes of the security rule are read only. Update security rule is also not availabel using openstackclient, horizon and neutron API.

Example of exception while updating security rule by protocol, remote_group_id,

openstack.exceptions.HttpException: HttpException: 400 Client Error: Bad Request, {"NeutronError": {"message": "Cannot update read-only attribute remote_group_id", "type": "HTTPBadRequest", "detail": ""}}

openstack.exceptions.HttpException: HttpException: 400 Client Error: Bad Request, {"NeutronError": {"message": "Cannot update read-only attribute protocol", "type": "HTTPBadRequest", "detail": ""}}

Do you mean that we should set allow_update=False on the SecurityGroupRule resource?

[Hardik Italia (hardik-italia)]

Yes, we should not allow update of security group rule.
