OpenStack DBaaS (Trove)

Adapt to file injection deprecation in nova

Registered by Fan Zhang

Trove currently uses `--personality` to inject files while booting an instance
via Nova api. Unfortunately, this parameter is deprecated from Queens release,
nova microversion 2.57. As bp `Deprecate file injection` [1]_ mentioned,
the code to support it would remain, but having a microversion boundary
 would give Nova the ability to eventually remove the code in the future. In
this spec, we try to adapt to file injection deprecation and implement another
 way to inject files into instance.
