Update to latest cloud images #176

Closed priteau closed 1 month ago

priteau commented 1 month ago

We were pinning to old cloud images, but we should now be able to switch to the latest ones since we use UEFI by default [1].

A recent Bifrost change [2] introduced various improvements surrounding deployment images that are downloaded rather than built locally. Bifrost is now aware of how to download official images, so we only need to specify the Linux distribution and release.

However, there is a bug affecting centos/rocky which are using a different file format for checksums [3]. Disable checksum verification for these distributions until it is fixed.

It's also worth noting that there is an issue with checksum handling upstream. The work in progress patch is here: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/bifrost/+/929753

I unfortunately discovered it the hard way 😢

For now, we could set custom_deploy_image_checksum_algorithm: none which would disable checksum validation entirely
