CentOS 8 removes interfaces from their bridge during ifdown, and removes the bridge if there are no interfaces left. When Kayobe bounces veth links plugged into the bridge, it causes the bridge which has the IP we are using for SSH to be removed. Use a dummy interface in CI to avoid this problem. Kolla-ansible has dropped all CentOS 7 jobs on master now, and prechecks only allow CentOS 7 hosts. Drop all CentOS 7 jobs. We will have to run without upgrade jobs in place until Train supports CentOS 8.

Kayobe
Kayobe enables deployment of containerised OpenStack to bare metal.
Containers offer a compelling solution for isolating OpenStack services, but running the control plane on an orchestrator such as Kubernetes or Docker Swarm adds significant complexity and operational overheads.
The hosts in an OpenStack control plane must somehow be provisioned, but deploying a secondary OpenStack cloud to do this seems like overkill.
Kayobe stands on the shoulders of giants:
- OpenStack bifrost discovers and provisions the cloud
- OpenStack kolla builds container images for OpenStack services
- OpenStack kolla-ansible delivers painless deployment and upgrade of containerised OpenStack services
To this solid base, kayobe adds:
- Configuration of cloud host OS & flexible networking
- Management of physical network devices
- A friendly openstack-like CLI
All this and more, automated from top to bottom using Ansible.
