+Backwards Incompatible Changes
+==============================
+
+Despite our best efforts, sometimes the OpenStackClient team may introduce a
+backwards incompatible change. For user convenience we are tracking any such
+changes here (as of the 1.0.0 release).
+
+Should positional arguments for a command need to change, the OpenStackClient
+team attempts to make the transition as painless as possible. Look for
+deprecation warnings that indicate the new commands (or options) to use.
+
+Commands labeled as a beta according to :ref:`command-beta` are exempt
+from this backwards incompatible change handling.
+
+Backwards Incompatible Changes
+==============================
+
+.. Carry this section as comments until 4.0 release
+.. Release 4.0
+.. -----------
+
+.. 1. Change ``volume transfer request accept`` to use new option ``--auth-key``
+.. rather than a second positional argument.
+
+.. * As of: 4.0
+.. * Remove in: <5.0>
+.. * Commit: <tbd>
+
+Release 3.12.0
+--------------
+
+1. Replace ``Display Name`` by ``Name`` in volume list.
+
+ Change column name ``Display Name`` to ``Name`` in ``volume list`` output.
+ Current ``volume list --name`` command uses ``display_name`` as search_opts
+ to send to cinder API, and show the result table with ``Display Name``
+ as column title. Replace all ``Display Name`` by ``Name`` to be consistent
+ with other list commands.
+
+ Support a mapping for volume list -c ``Display Name`` (Volume v1 and v2)
+ and volume create/show -c ``display_name`` (Volume v1) to maintain backward
+ compatibility until the next major release.
+
+ * In favor of: ``openstack volume list -c Name``
+ * As of: 3.12.0
+ * Removed in: n/a
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1657956
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/423081/
+
+Release 3.10
+------------
+
+1. The ``network create`` command now requires the ``--subnet`` option when used
+ with Nova-network clouds.
+
+ * As of: 3.10
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/460679
+
+2. The positional argument ``<snapshot-name>`` of the ``volume snapshot create``
+ command is no longer optional.
+
+ Previously when the ``--volume`` option was
+ present ``<snapshot-name>`` defaulted to the ``--volume`` value. When the
+ ``--volume`` option is not present now it defaults to the value of
+ ``<snapshot-name>``.
+
+ * As of: 3.10
+ * Bug: 1659894
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/440497
+
+Release 3.0
+-----------
+
+1. Remove the ``osc_password`` authentication plugin.
+
+ This was the 'last-resort' plugin default that worked around an old default
+ Keystone configuration for the ``admin_endpoint`` and ``public_endpoint``.
+
+ * In favor of: ``password``
+ * As of: 3.0
+ * Removed in: n/a
+ * Bug: n/a
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/332938
+
+
+Releases Before 3.0
+-------------------
+
+1. Rename command `openstack project usage list`
+
+ The `project` part of the command was pointless.
+
+ * In favor of: `openstack usage list` instead.
+ * As of: 1.0.2
+ * Removed in: TBD
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1406654
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/147379/
+
+2. <type> should not be optional for command `openstack service create`
+
+ Previously, the command was `openstack service create <name> --type <type>`,
+ whereas now it is: `openstack service create <type> --name <name>`.
+ This bug also affected python-keystoneclient, and keystone.
+
+ * In favor of: making <type> a positional argument.
+ * As of: 1.0.2
+ * Removed in: TBD
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1404073
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/143242/
+
+3. Command `openstack security group rule delete` now requires rule id
+
+ Previously, the command was `openstack security group rule delete --proto
+ <proto> [--src-ip <ip-address> --dst-port <port-range>] <group>`,
+ whereas now it is: `openstack security group rule delete <rule>`.
+
+ * In favor of: Using `openstack security group rule delete <rule>`.
+ * As of: 1.2.1
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1450872
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/179446/
+
+4. Command `openstack image create` does not update already existing image
+
+ Previously, the image create command updated already existing image if it had
+ same name. It disabled possibility to create multiple images with same name
+ and lead to potentially unwanted update of existing images by image create
+ command.
+ Now, update code was moved from create action to set action.
+
+ * In favor of: Create multiple images with same name (as glance does).
+ * As of: 1.5.0
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1461817
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/194654/
+
+5. Command `openstack network list --dhcp` has been removed
+
+ The --dhcp option to network list is not a logical use case of listing
+ networks, it lists agents. Another command should be added in the future
+ to provide this functionality. It is highly unlikely anyone uses this
+ feature as we don't support any other agent commands. Use neutron
+ dhcp-agent-list-hosting-net command instead.
+
+ * In favor of: Create network agent list command in the future
+ * As of: 1.6.0
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/472613
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/194654/
+
+6. Plugin interface change for default API versions
+
+ Previously, the default version was set in the parsed arguments,
+ but this makes it impossible to tell what has been passed in at the
+ command line, set in an environment variable or is just the default.
+ Now, the module should have a DEFAULT_API_VERSION that contains the
+ value and it will be set after command line argument, environment
+ and OCC file processing.
+
+ * In favor of: DEFAULT_API_VERSION
+ * As of: 1.2.1
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1453229
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/181514/
+
+7. `image set` commands will no longer return the modified resource
+
+ Previously, modifying an image would result in the new image being displayed
+ to the user. To keep things consistent with other `set` commands, we will
+ no longer be showing the modified resource.
+
+ * In favor of: Use `set` then `show`
+ * As of: NA
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: NA
+ * Commit: NA
+
+8. `region` commands no longer support `url`
+
+ The Keystone team removed support for the `url` attribute from the client
+ and server side. Changes to the `create`, `set` and `list` commands for
+ regions have been affected.
+
+ * In favor of: NA
+ * As of 1.9.0
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://launchpad.net/bugs/1506841
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/236736/
+
+9. `flavor set/unset` commands will no longer return the modified resource
+
+ Previously, modifying a flavor would result in the new flavor being displayed
+ to the user. To keep things consistent with other `set/unset` commands, we
+ will no longer be showing the modified resource.
+
+ * In favor of: Use `set/unset` then `show`
+ * As of: NA
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1546065
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/280663/
+
+10. `security group set` commands will no longer return the modified resource
+
+ Previously, modifying a security group would result in the new security group
+ being displayed to the user. To keep things consistent with other `set`
+ commands, we will no longer be showing the modified resource.
+
+ * In favor of: Use `set` then `show`
+ * As of: NA
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1546065
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/281087/
+
+11. `compute agent set` commands will no longer return the modified resource
+
+ Previously, modifying an agent would result in the new agent being displayed
+ to the user. To keep things consistent with other `set` commands, we will
+ no longer be showing the modified resource.
+
+ * In favor of: Use `set` then `show`
+ * As of: NA
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1546065
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/281088/
+
+12. `<version> <url> <md5hash>` should be optional for command `openstack
+ compute agent set`
+
+ Previously, the command was `openstack compute agent set <id> <version> <url>
+ <md5hash>`, whereas now it is: `openstack compute agent set <id> --version
+ <version> --url <url> --md5hash <md5hash>`.
+
+ * In favor of: making <version> <url> <md5hash> optional.
+ * As of: NA
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: NA
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/328819/
+
+13. `aggregate set` commands will no longer return the modified resource
+
+ Previously, modifying an aggregate would result in the new aggregate being
+ displayed to the user. To keep things consistent with other `set` commands,
+ we will no longer be showing the modified resource.
+
+ * In favor of: Use `set` then `show`
+ * As of: NA
+ * Removed in: NA
+ * Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1546065
+ * Commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/281089/
+
+14. Output of `ip floating list` command has changed.
+
+ When using Compute v2, the original output is:
+
+ .. code-block:: bash
+
+ # ip floating list
+
+ +----+--------+------------+----------+-------------+
+ | ID | Pool | IP | Fixed IP | Instance ID |
+ +----+--------+-----------------------+-------------+
+ | 1 | public | 172.24.4.1 | None | None |
+ +----+--------+------------+----------+-------------+
+
+ Now it changes to:
+
+ .. code-block:: bash
+
+ # ip floating list
+
+ +----+---------------------+------------------+-----------+--------+
+ | ID | Floating IP Address | Fixed IP Address | Server ID | Pool |
+ +----+---------------------+------------------+-----------+--------+
+ | 1 | 172.24.4.1 | None | None | public |
+ +----+---------------------+------------------+-----------+--------+
+
+ When using Network v2, which is different from Compute v2. The output is:
+
+ .. code-block:: bash
+
+ # ip floating list
+
+ +--------------------------------------+---------------------+------------------+------+
+ | ID | Floating IP Address | Fixed IP Address | Port |
+ +--------------------------------------+---------------------+------------------+------+
+ | 1976df86-e66a-4f96-81bd-c6ffee6407f1 | 172.24.4.3 | None | None |
+ +--------------------------------------+---------------------+------------------+------+
+
+ * In favor of: Use `ip floating list` command
+ * As of: NA
+ * Removed in: NA
