upgrade:

|
Ubuntu 24.04 does not support the QXL video model or spice.
|
|
Operators using instances with this video model will be unable to start
|
|
them if moving to Ubuntu 24.04. CentOS 9 and RHEL 9 previously compiled
|
|
out support for spice, and as QXL was implemented in libspice, support
|
|
for QXL was removed as a result for the removal of support for spice.
|
|
The QXL model was a spice optimized video model and is no longer
|
|
supported by several distros. To avoid issues with starting instances,
|
|
operators should change the spice video model from QXL to virtio and
|
|
replace the spice console with vnc. For existing instances the video
|
|
model can be updated with the ``nova-manage image_property set`` command.
|
|
When updating the embedded image properties, operators should evaluate if
|
|
any glance images request the QXL video model and update them or work
|
|
with the image owner to have them move to a modern video model.
|
|
fixes:
|
|
- |
|
|
When the default video model for libvirt was updated to virtio in Yoga
|
|
the default for hosts using spice was not changed. This lead to issues
|
|
when starting instances on hosts that had spice configured with QXL as
|
|
the default video model on modern distros. To address this, the default
|
|
spice video model is now virtio.
