Hello community,

 

Story https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2009811 tracks the enhancement of our default security configuration by the adoption of cert-manager certificates for platform certificates and HTTPS enablement on the initial StarlingX install.

 

This change will offer many benefits:

Having that said, there are some end-user impacts that are important for the community to be aware:

  • Due to the HTTPS enablement, the horizon URL will default to https://<oam-floating-ip-address>:8443 and not http://<oam-floating-ip-address>:8080 as it is documented today.
  • Also, because of HTTPS enablement, external scripts that connect to StarlingX REST API will need to be updated to use the HTTPS connection.

 

We are tracking the documentation changes. Please take a look at the spec proposal https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/specs/+/827175 for more details.

 

Thank you,

Rei
