Merge "use cinder migrate for swap volume" into stable/2025.1

This change removes watchers in tree functionality
for swapping instance volumes and defines swap as an alias
of cinder volume migrate.

The watcher native implementation was missing error handling
which could lead to irretrievable data loss.

The removed code also forged project user credentials to
perform admin request as if it was done by a member of a project.
this was unsafe an posses a security risk due to how it was
implemented. This code has been removed without replacement.

While some effort has been made to allow existing
audits that were defined to work, any reduction of functionality
as a result of this security hardening is intentional.

Closes-Bug: #2112187

 will not interact with it while developing new features. The other threadpool
 can frequently be used while developing new features or updating existing ones.
 It is known as the DecisionEngineThreadpool and allows to achieve performance
 improvements in network or I/O bound operations.

-Chronological Release Liaison Guide
-====================================
-
-This is a reference guide that a release liaison may use as an aid, if
-they choose.
-
-Watcher uses the `Distributed Project Leadership (DPL)`__ model where
-traditional release liaison responsibilities are distributed among various
-liaisons. The release liaison is responsible for requesting releases,
-reviewing Feature Freeze Exception (FFE) requests, and coordinating
-release-related activities with the team.
-
-.. __: https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/distributed-project-leadership.html
-
-How to Use This Guide
----------------------
-
-This guide is organized chronologically to follow the OpenStack release
-cycle from PTG planning through post-release activities. You can use it
-in two ways:
-
-**For New Release Liaisons**
-    Read through the entire guide to understand the full release cycle,
-    then bookmark it for reference during your term.
-
-**For Experienced Release Liaisons**
-    Jump directly to the relevant section for your current phase in the
-    release cycle. Each major section corresponds to a specific time period.
-
-**Key Navigation Tips**
-    * The :ref:`glossary` defines all acronyms and terminology used
-    * Time-sensitive activities are clearly marked by milestone phases
-    * DPL coordination notes indicate when team collaboration is required
-
-DPL Liaison Coordination
--------------------------
-
-Under the DPL model, the release liaison coordinates with other project
-liaisons and the broader team for effective release management. The release
-liaison has authority for release-specific decisions (FFE approvals, release
-timing, etc.) while major process changes and strategic decisions require
-team consensus.
-
-This coordination approach ensures that:
-
-* Release activities are properly managed by a dedicated liaison
-* Team input is gathered for significant decisions
-* Other liaisons are informed of release-related developments that may
-  affect their areas
-* Release processes remain responsive while maintaining team alignment
-
-Project Context
----------------
-
-* Coordinate with the watcher meeting (chair rotates each meeting, with
-  volunteers requested at the end of each meeting)
-
-  * Meeting etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/openstack-watcher-irc-meeting
-  * IRC channel: #openstack-watcher
-
-* Get acquainted with the release schedule
-
-  * Example: https://releases.openstack.org/<current-release>/schedule.html
-
-* Familiarize with Watcher project repositories and tracking:
-
-Watcher Main Repository
-    `Primary codebase for the Watcher service <https://opendev.org/openstack/watcher>`__
-
-Watcher Dashboard
-    `Horizon plugin for Watcher UI <https://opendev.org/openstack/watcher-dashboard>`__
-
-Watcher Tempest Plugin
-    `Integration tests <https://opendev.org/openstack/watcher-tempest-plugin>`__ (follows tempest cycle)
-
-Python Watcher Client
-    `Command-line client and Python library <https://opendev.org/openstack/python-watcherclient>`__
-
-Watcher Specifications
-    `Design specifications <https://opendev.org/openstack/watcher-specs>`__ (not released)
-

-
-Project Team Gathering
-----------------------
-
-Event Liaison Coordination
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* Work with the project team to select an event liaison for PTG coordination.
-  The event liaison is responsible for:
-
-  * Reserving sufficient space at PTG for the project team's meetings
-  * Putting out an agenda for team meetings
-  * Ensuring meetings are organized and facilitated
-  * Documenting meeting results
-
-* If no event liaison is selected, these duties revert to the release liaison.
-
-* Monitor for OpenStack Events team queries on the mailing list requesting
-  event liaison volunteers - teams not responding may lose event
-  representation.
-
-PTG Planning and Execution
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* Create PTG planning etherpad, retrospective etherpad and alert about it in
-  watcher meeting and dev mailing list
-
-  * Example: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/apr2025-ptg-watcher
-
-* Run sessions at the PTG (if no event liaison is selected)
-
-* Do a retro of the previous cycle
-
-* Coordinate with team to establish agreement on the agenda for this release:
-
-Review Days Planning
-    Determine number of review days allocated for specs and implementation work

-------------------------------
-
-* Plan a spec review day
-
-* Periodically check the series goals others have proposed in the “Set series
-  goals” link:
-
-  * Example: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/watcher/<current-release>/+setgoals
-
-Milestone 1
------------
-
-* Release watcher and python-watcherclient via the openstack/releases repo.
-  Watcher follows the `cycle-with-intermediary`__ release model:
-
-.. __: https://releases.openstack.org/reference/release_models.html#cycle-with-intermediary
-
-  * Create actual releases (not just launchpad bookkeeping) at milestone points
-  * No launchpad milestone releases are created for intermediary releases
-  * When releasing the first version of a library for the cycle,
-    bump
-    the minor version to leave room for future stable branch
-    releases
-
-* Release stable branches of watcher
-
-Stable Branch Release Process
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Prepare the stable branch for evaluation:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   git checkout <stable branch>
-   git log --no-merges <last tag>..
-
-Analyze commits to determine version bump according to semantic versioning.
-
-Semantic Versioning Guidelines
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Choose version bump based on changes since last release:
-
-Major Version (X)
-    Backward-incompatible changes that break existing APIs
-
-Minor Version (Y)
-    New features that maintain backward compatibility
-
-Patch Version (Z)
-    Bug fixes that maintain backward compatibility
-
-Release Command Usage
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Generate the release using OpenStack tooling:
-
-* Use the `new-release command
-  <https://releases.openstack.org/reference/using.html#using-new-release-command>`__
-* Propose the release with version according to chosen semver format
-  (x.y.z)
-
-Summit
-------
-
-``Responsibility Precedence for Summit Activities:``
-
-1. ``Project Update/Onboarding Liaisons`` (if appointed):
-
-   * ``Project Update Liaison``: responsible for giving the project update
-     showcasing team's achievements for the cycle to the community
-   * ``Project Onboarding Liaison``: responsible for giving/facilitating
-     onboarding sessions during events for the project's community
-
-2. ``Event Liaison`` (if no Project Update/Onboarding liaisons exist):
-
-   * Coordinates all Summit activities including project updates and onboarding
-
-3. ``Release Liaison`` (if no Event Liaison is appointed):
-
-   * Work with the team to ensure Summit activities are properly handled:
-
-     * Prepare the project update presentation
-     * Prepare the on-boarding session materials
-     * Prepare the operator meet-and-greet session
-
-.. note::
-
-   The team can choose to not have a Summit presence if desired.
-
-A few weeks before milestone 2
-------------------------------
-
-* Plan a spec review day (optional)
-
-Milestone 2
------------
-
-* Spec freeze (unless changed by team agreement at PTG)
-
-* Release watcher and python-watcherclient (if needed)
-
-* Stable branch releases of watcher
-
-
-Shortly after spec freeze
--------------------------
-
-* Create a blueprint status etherpad to help track, especially non-priority
-  blueprint work, to help things get done by Feature Freeze (FF). Example:
-
-  * https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/watcher-<release>-blueprint-status
-
-* Create or review a patch to add the next release’s specs directory so people
-  can propose specs for next release after spec freeze for current release
-
-Milestone 3
------------
-
-* Feature freeze day
-
-* Client library freeze, release python-watcherclient
-
-* Close out all blueprints, including “catch all” blueprints like mox,
-  versioned notifications
-
-* Stable branch releases of watcher
-
-* Start writing the `cycle highlights
-  <https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/release-management.html#cycle-highlights>`__
-
-Week following milestone 3
---------------------------
-
-* If warranted, announce the FFE (feature freeze exception process) to
-  have people propose FFE requests to a special etherpad where they will
-  be reviewed.
-  FFE requests should first be discussed in the IRC meeting with the
-  requester present.
-  The release liaison has final decision on granting exceptions.
-
-  .. note::
-
-    if there is only a short time between FF and RC1 (lately it’s been 2
-    weeks), then the only likely candidates will be low-risk things that are
-    almost done. In general Feature Freeze exceptions should not be granted,
-    instead features should be deferred and reproposed for the next
-    development
-    cycle. FFE never extend beyond RC1.
-
-* Mark the max microversion for the release in the
-  :doc:`/contributor/api_microversion_history`
-
-A few weeks before RC
----------------------
-
-* Update the release status etherpad with RC1 todos and keep track
-  of them in meetings
-
-* Go through the bug list and identify any rc-potential bugs and tag them
-
-RC
---
-
-* Follow the standard OpenStack release checklist process
-
-* If we want to drop backward-compat RPC code, we have to do a major RPC
-  version bump and coordinate it just before the major release:
-
-  * https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/RpcMajorVersionUpdates
-
-  * Example: https://review.opendev.org/541035
-
-* “Merge latest translations" means translation patches
-
-  * Check for translations with:
-
-    * https://review.opendev.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/watcher+branch:master+topic:zanata/translations
-
-* Should NOT plan to have more than one RC if possible. RC2 should only happen
-  if there was a mistake and something was missed for RC, or a new regression
-  was discovered
-
-* Write the reno prelude for the release GA
-
-  * Example: https://review.opendev.org/644412
-
-* Push the cycle-highlights in marketing-friendly sentences and propose to the
-  openstack/releases repo. Usually based on reno prelude but made more readable
-  and friendly
-
-  * Example: https://review.opendev.org/644697
-
-Immediately after RC
---------------------
-
-* Look for bot proposed changes to reno and stable/<cycle>
-
-* Create the launchpad series for the next cycle
-
-* Set the development focus of the project to the new cycle series
-
-* Set the status of the new series to “active development”
-
-* Set the last series status to “current stable branch release”
-
-* Set the previous to last series status to “supported”
-
-* Repeat launchpad steps ^ for all watcher deliverables.
-
-* Make sure the specs directory for the next cycle gets created so people can
-  start proposing new specs
-
-* Make sure to move implemented specs from the previous release
-
-  * Move implemented specs manually (TODO: add tox command in future)
-
-  * Remove template files:
-
-    .. code-block:: bash
-
-       rm doc/source/specs/<release>/index.rst
-       rm doc/source/specs/<release>/template.rst
-
-* Ensure liaison handoff: either transition to new release liaison or confirm
-  reappointment for next cycle

-How to track launchpad blueprint approvals
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Core team approves blueprints through team consensus. The release liaison
-ensures launchpad status is updated correctly after core team approval:
-
-* Set the approver as the core team member who approved the spec
-
-* Set the Direction => Approved and Definition => Approved and make sure the
-  Series goal is set to the current release. If code is already proposed, set
-  Implementation => Needs Code Review
-
-* Optional: add a comment to the Whiteboard explaining the approval,
-  with a date
-  (launchpad does not record approval dates). For example: “We discussed this
-  in the team meeting and agreed to approve this for <release>. -- <nick>
-  <YYYYMMDD>”
-
-How to complete a launchpad blueprint
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-================
-Aetos datasource
-================
-
-Synopsis
---------
-The Aetos datasource allows Watcher to use an Aetos reverse proxy server as the
-source for collected metrics used by the Watcher decision engine. Aetos is a
-multi-tenant aware reverse proxy that sits in front of a Prometheus server and
-provides Keystone authentication and role-based access control. The Aetos
-datasource uses Keystone service discovery to locate the Aetos endpoint and
-requires authentication via Keystone tokens.
-
-Requirements
--------------
-The Aetos datasource has the following requirements:
-
-* An Aetos reverse proxy server deployed in front of Prometheus
-* Aetos service registered in Keystone with service type 'metric-storage'
-* Valid Keystone credentials for Watcher with admin or service role
-* Prometheus metrics with appropriate labels (same as direct Prometheus access)
-
-Like the Prometheus datasource, it is required that Prometheus metrics contain
-a label to identify the hostname of the exporter from which the metric was
-collected. This is used to match against the Watcher cluster model
-``ComputeNode.hostname``. The default for this label is ``fqdn`` and in the
-prometheus scrape configs would look like:
-
-.. code-block::
-
-    scrape_configs:
-    - job_name: node
-      static_configs:
-     - targets: ['10.1.2.3:9100']
-        labels:
-          fqdn: "testbox.controlplane.domain"
-
-This default can be overridden when a deployer uses a different label to
-identify the exporter host (for example ``hostname`` or ``host``, or any other
-label, as long as it identifies the host).
-
-Internally this label is used in creating ``fqdn_instance_labels``, containing
-the list of values assigned to the label in the Prometheus targets.
-The elements of the resulting fqdn_instance_labels are expected to match the
-``ComputeNode.hostname`` used in the Watcher decision engine cluster model.
-An example ``fqdn_instance_labels`` is the following:
-
-.. code-block::
-
-    [
-     'ena.controlplane.domain',
-     'dio.controlplane.domain',
-     'tria.controlplane.domain',
-    ]
-
-For instance metrics, it is required that Prometheus contains a label
-with the uuid of the OpenStack instance in each relevant metric. By default,
-the datasource will look for the label ``resource``. The
-``instance_uuid_label`` config option in watcher.conf allows deployers to
-override this default to any other label name that stores the ``uuid``.
-
-Limitations
------------
-The Aetos datasource shares the same limitations as the Prometheus datasource:
-
-The current implementation doesn't support the ``statistic_series`` function of
-the Watcher ``class DataSourceBase``. It is expected that the
-``statistic_aggregation`` function (which is implemented) is sufficient in
-providing the **current** state of the managed resources in the cluster.
-The ``statistic_aggregation`` function defaults to querying back 300 seconds,
-starting from the present time (the time period is a function parameter and
-can be set to a value as required). Implementing the ``statistic_series`` can
-always be re-visited if the requisite interest and work cycles are volunteered
-by the interested parties.
-
-One further note about a limitation in the implemented
-``statistic_aggregation`` function. This function is defined with a
-``granularity`` parameter, to be used when querying whichever of the Watcher
-``DataSourceBase`` metrics providers. In the case of Aetos (like Prometheus),
-we do not fetch and then process individual metrics across the specified time
-period. Instead we use the PromQL querying operators and functions, so that the
-server itself will process the request across the specified parameters and
-then return the result. So ``granularity`` parameter is redundant and remains
-unused for the Aetos implementation of ``statistic_aggregation``. The
-granularity of the data fetched by Prometheus server is specified in
-configuration as the server ``scrape_interval`` (current default 15 seconds).
-
-Additionally, there is a slight performance impact compared to direct
-Prometheus access. Since Aetos acts as a reverse proxy in front of Prometheus,
-there is an additional step for each request, resulting in slightly longer
-delays.
-
-Configuration
--------------
-A deployer must set the ``datasources`` parameter to include ``aetos``
-under the watcher_datasources section of watcher.conf (or add ``aetos`` in
-datasources for a specific strategy if preferred eg. under the
-``[watcher_strategies.workload_stabilization]`` section).
-
-.. note::
-   Having both Prometheus and Aetos datasources configured at the same time
-   is not supported and will result in a configuration error. Allowing this
-   can be investigated in the future if a need or a proper use case is
-   identified.
-
-The watcher.conf configuration file is also used to set the parameter values
-required by the Watcher Aetos data source. The configuration can be
-added under the ``[aetos_client]`` section and the available options are
-duplicated below from the code as they are self documenting:
-
-.. code-block::
-
-    cfg.StrOpt('interface',
-               default='public',
-               choices=['internal', 'public', 'admin'],
-               help="Type of endpoint to use in keystoneclient."),
-    cfg.StrOpt('region_name',
-               help="Region in Identity service catalog to use for "
-                    "communication with the OpenStack service."),
-    cfg.StrOpt('fqdn_label',
-               default='fqdn',
-               help="The label that Prometheus uses to store the fqdn of "
-                    "exporters. Defaults to 'fqdn'."),
-    cfg.StrOpt('instance_uuid_label',
-               default='resource',
-               help="The label that Prometheus uses to store the uuid of "
-                    "OpenStack instances. Defaults to 'resource'."),
-
-
-Authentication and Service Discovery
-------------------------------------
-Unlike the Prometheus datasource which requires explicit host and port
-configuration, the Aetos datasource uses Keystone service discovery to
-automatically locate the Aetos endpoint. The datasource:
-
-1. Uses the configured Keystone credentials to authenticate
-2. Searches the service catalog for a service with type 'metric-storage'
-3. Uses the discovered endpoint URL to connect to Aetos
-4. Attaches a Keystone token to each request for authentication
-
-If the Aetos service is not registered in Keystone, the datasource will
-fail to initialize and prevent the decision engine from starting.
-
-So a sample watcher.conf configured to use the Aetos datasource would look
-like the following:
-
-.. code-block::
-
-    [watcher_datasources]
-
-    datasources = aetos
-
-    [aetos_client]
-
-    interface = public
-    region_name = RegionOne
-    fqdn_label = fqdn

-Run an audit using Host Maintenance strategy with a backup node specified.
-Executing the actions will move the servers from compute01 host
-to compute02 host.

-Run an audit using Host Maintenance strategy with migration disabled.
-This will only stop active instances on compute01, useful for maintenance
-scenarios where operators do not want to migrate workloads to other hosts.
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
-    $ openstack optimize audit create \

-      -p disable_cold_migration=True
-
-Note that after executing this strategy, the *maintenance_node* will be
-marked as disabled, with the reason set to ``watcher_maintaining``.
-To enable the node again:
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
-   $ openstack compute service set --enable compute01
+      -p backup_node=compute02 \
+      --auto-trigger

-   * The parameters above reference the instance CPU or RAM usage, but
-     the threshold calculation is based of the CPU/RAM usage on the
-     hypervisor.
-   * The RAM usage can be calculated based on the RAM consumed by the instance,
-     and the available RAM on the hypervisor.
-   * The CPU percentage calculation relies on the CPU load, but also on the
-     number of CPUs on the hypervisor.
-   * The host memory metric is calculated by summing the RAM usage of each
-     instance on the host. This measure is close to the real usage, but is
-     not the exact usage on the host.

-  The ``OpenStack 2025.2`` (``Watcher 15.0.0``) release delivers stronger security,
-  granular operational control, and comprehensive monitoring capabilities for cloud
-  optimization. This release strengthens the foundation for reliable, large-scale
-  cloud operations while giving administrators complete flexibility in
-  managing optimization workflows.
-
-  Cloud operators gain secure and reliable volume migration processes that eliminate
-  data loss scenarios and ensure tenant isolation. The Host Maintenance strategy
-  now provides granular control over migration behavior, including the ability to
-  disable live or cold migration and safely stop instances when migration
-  cannot proceed.
-
-  The new ``Aetos data source`` adds secure, role-based access to Prometheus metrics
-  through Keystone authentication. This enables multi-tenant monitoring while
-  maintaining access controls across your cloud infrastructure.
-
-  Administrators can now exercise precise control over optimization workflows by
-  manually skipping actions or allowing Watcher to automatically skip actions
-  based on detected conditions. Custom status messages document why administrators
-  or Watcher took specific actions, improving operational visibility and
-  troubleshooting.

-    This brings the implementation of the strategy in line with the the api schema
-    where dest_node is optional.

-    If a dst_pool is not passed, the strategy will not migrate some volumes, as Cinder can't compute a
-    destination host when migrating available volumes like Nova does. If src_type and dst_type are equal,
-    a migration is only performed if a dst_pool is provided, otherwise the volume will be skipped/ignored.
-    If src_type and dst_type are different, the strategy will retype the volumes.
