prelude: |
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.
