Upgrade Notes
- Note that periodic tasks will now run more often than before. The frequency of periodic task runs has always been configurable. However, the timer for when to run the task again was previously started after the last run of the task completed. The tasks now run at a constant frequency, regardless of how long a given run takes. This makes it much more clear for when tasks are supposed to run. However, the side effect is that tasks will now run a bit more often by default. (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/26448/)
- The security_groups_handler option has been removed from nova.conf. It was added for Quantum and is no longer needed. (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/28384/)
- This change should not affect upgrades, but it is a change in behavior for all new deployments. Previous versions created the default m1.tiny flavor with a disk size of 0. The default value is now 1. 0 means not to do any disk resizing and just use whatever disk size is set up in the image. 1 means to impose a 1 GB limit. The special value of 0 is still supported if you would like to create or modify flavors to use it. (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/27991/).

Upgrade Notes
- Changes to neutron-dhcp-agent require you to first upgrade your dhcp-agents. Then wait untill the dhcp_lease time has expired. After waiting atleast dhcp_lease time, update neutron-server. Failure to do this may lead to cases where an instance is deleted and the dnsmasq process has not released the lease and neturon allocates that ip to a new port.
