Please note the only public API is our REST API, see: :doc:`policies` +Should I run the experimental queue jobs on this change? +======================================================== + +Because we can't run all CI jobs in the check and gate pipelines, some +jobs can be executed on demand, thanks to the experimental pipeline. +To run the experimental jobs, you need to comment your Gerrit review +with "check experimental". + +The experimental jobs aim to test specific features, such as LXC containers +or DVR with multiple nodes. Also, it might be useful to run them when +we want to test backward compatibility with tools that deploy OpenStack +outside Devstack (e.g. TripleO, etc). They can produce a non-voting +feedback of whether the system continues to work when we deprecate +or remove some options or features in Nova. + +The experimental queue can also be used to test that new CI jobs are +correct before making them voting. + Database Schema ===============
