Multi-tenant mode¶
openstack-migrate allows migrating resources owned by other projects (tenants)
and preserving the owner information. This requires admin privileges.
The multitenant_mode setting is enabled by default. As a result, the owner
project and user resources are reported as dependencies and migrated
automatically.
Not all Openstack services allow specifying a different owner when creating
resources. As such, openstack-migrate needs to use project scoped sessions,
assigning itself as a member of the migrated tenant.
At the moment, this feature does not support Nova keypairs and Barbican secrets. The keypairs will be skipped when migrating instances if the multi-tenant mode is enabled. However, the keypair information shouldn’t be mandatory for already provisioned instances.
