OpenStack Compute (nova)

Switch Nova to use tenant ID authentication with Neutron

Registered by Phil Day on 2013-11-25

Keystone v3 supports non-unique project names, which means that authentication needs to be by tenant ID.

The Neutron client supports authentication via Tenant_ID: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/35116/

But Nova currently only supports name based authentication, via neutron_admin_tenant_name.

This change would introduce a neutron_admin_tenant_id value, and deprecate the tenant_name option

Add support for tenant_id based authentication with Neutron

Given this change: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/69972/, it would be nice if there was a related change to devstack now which uses that config option rather than the deprecated one so we know it's being used in the check/gate queue for testing.
