Example Change Request
======================
Use Github's issue feature to open a [Feature Request](https://github.com/openshift/oadp-operator/issues/new/choose)
This is a place to describe your change, why the change is helpful. A Github issue allows everyone visibility and to comment asynchronously.
* Feature request mandatory questions that require written answers.
* Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
* Describe the solution you'd like
* Describe alternatives you've considered
* Additional context
## Additional Context ( Optional, not required )
Introduction paragraph -- why are we doing anything? A single paragraph of prose that most people can understand.
Some notes about using this template:
* Your spec should be in MarkDown text, like this template.
#### Problem Description
A detailed description of the problem:
* For a new feature this might be use cases. Ensure you are clear about the actors in each use case: End User vs Deployer
* For a major reworking of something existing it would describe the
problems in that feature that are being addressed.
### Proposed Change
#### Overview
Here is where you cover the change you propose to make in detail. How do you propose to solve this problem?
If this is one part of a larger effort make it clear where this piece ends. In other words, what's the scope of this effort?
### Alternatives
What other ways could we do this thing? Why aren't we using those? This doesn't have to be a full literature review, but it should demonstrate that thought has been put into why the proposed solution is an appropriate one.
### Security Impact
Describe any potential security impact on the system. Some of the items to
consider include:
* Does this change touch sensitive data such as tokens, keys, or user data?
* Does this change involve cryptography or hashing?
* Does this change require the use of sudo or any elevated privileges?
### Performance Impact
Describe any potential performance impact on the system, for example
how often will new code be called, and is there a major change to the calling pattern of existing code.
### Developer Impact
Discuss things that will affect other developers working on OpenStack.
