--- features: - | RPC dispatcher can have an extra endpoint named ping. This endpoint can be enabled thanks to a specific configuration parameter: [DEFAULT] rpc_ping_enabled=true # default is false The purpose of this new endpoint is to help operators do a RPC call (a ping) toward a specific RPC callback (e.g. a nova-compute, or a neutron-agent). This is helping a lot for monitoring agents (for example, if agents are deployed in a kubernetes pod).
