+First things first
+==================
+
+General notes
+=============
+
+* Shortly before the first pre-release, `gilt <https://github.com/retr0h/gilt>`_
+  made a major release which led to breaking changes. It is therefore important
+  for the moment to install python-gilt in a version < 2 when synchronising the
+  configuration repository against the generics. In the CI and within the container
+  images, we currently use ``python-gilt == 1.2.3``.

+
+Upgrade notes
+=============
+
+* The use of ProxySQL for MariaDB is now possible and it is recommended to switch
+  to it as part of the upgrade. The parameter ``enable_proxysql`` is added to
+  ``environments/kolla/configuration.yml`` for this purpose.
+
+  .. code-block:: yaml
+
+     enable_proxysql: yes
+
+  The secrets listed below (``proxysql_admin_password``, ``proxysql_stats_password``,
+  ``mariadb_monitor_password``) must also be added or changed.
+
+  When upgrading, it is important to update MariaDB first. This is followed by the
+  load balancer. ProxySQL is deployed with the load balancer play.
+
+* The following secrets must be added in ``environments/kolla/secrets.yml``:
+
+  .. code-block:: yaml
+
+     prometheus_bcrypt_salt:       # generate with: pwgen 22 1 <-- there's a 22
+     prometheus_grafana_password:  # generate with: pwgen 32 1
+     prometheus_password:          # generate with: pwgen 32 1
+     proxysql_admin_password:      # generate with: pwgen 32 1
+     proxysql_stats_password:      # generate with: pwgen 32 1
+
+* The parameter ``mariadb_monitoring_password`` in ``environments/kolla/secrets.yml``
+  has to be renamed to ``mariadb_monitor_password``. If the parameter is not present,
+  it is added.
+
+  .. code-block:: yaml
+
+     mariadb_monitor_password:     # generate with: pwgen 32 1
+
+* The following parameters must be removed from the configuration repository from
+  ``environments/kolla/configuration.yml``:
+
+  .. code-block:: yaml
+
+     ceph_nova_user: nova
+     ceph_nova_keyring: ceph.client.nova.keyring
+
+* Parameters for the Netbox service in ``environments/infrastructure/configuration.yml`` or
+  ``secrets.yml`` must now also be added in ``environments/manager/configuration.yml`` or
+  ``secrets.yml``. In an upcoming  release, the parameters can be removed from the
+  infrastructure environment.
+
+* The Ansible callback plugin ``osism.commons.still_alive`` is now available to avoid timeouts
+  for long-running tasks. This currently has to be explicitly enabled in the Ansible configuration.
+  This is done in the ``environments/ansible.cfg`` file in the configuration repository.
+  The callback plugin is enabled by default in the future.
+
+  .. code-block:: ini
+
+     [defaults]
+     ...
+     stdout_callback = osism.commons.still_alive
+
+* In the inventory, the ``nova_backend`` parameter must be added to the host vars of
+  compute nodes where local storage is used.
+
+  .. code-block:: yaml
+
+     nova_backend: default
+
+* The persistence feature in Octavia was enabled by default. This requires an additional
+  database, which is only created when Octavia play is run in bootstrap mode first.
+
+  .. code-block:: none
+
+     osism apply octavia -e kolla_action=bootstrap
+
+Known issues
+============
+
+* The manager service is updated via ``osism update manager``. If this command is not yet
+  available, you can use ``osism-update-manager`` as an alternative.
+
+  .. code-block:: none
+
+     osism: 'update manager' is not an osism command. See 'osism --help'.
