The concurrency mode can still be switched back to eventlet if needed.

When you are upgrading to 2026.1 (Gazpacho) or newer the default
configuration of nova-scheduler, nova-api, and nova-metadata services
change to run these services with native threading mode by default
instead of the legacy eventlet mode. We recommend to decouple the
upgrade from the concurrency mode change to reduce the risk of issues.
To do that either test the native threading mode of these services already
in 2025.2 (Flamingo) or ensure that your service configuration is
explicitly using the eventlet mode before you upgrade and only change to
threading mode after the upgrade was successful. Please read the
`concurrency <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/admin/concurrency.html>`__
guide for more details on how to configure the mode.
