documentation available online at:

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to
the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party
operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for
reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker,
available at:

Bug Tracker



Troubleshooting
When errors occure, these are good places to check:


freezer-api log: $HOME/log/freezer-api.log
/var/log/apache2/freezer-api.log



freezer-agent log: $HOME/.freezer/freezer.log
freezer-scheduler log:/var/log/freezer/scheduler.log



Developers
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst
file and OpenStack general development guidelines, and pass all unit tests.
