Hello,<br>
<br>
Here is the situation: nova has live-migration feature but doesn't have<br>
ci job to cover it by functional tests, only<br>
gate-tempest-dsvm-multinode-full(non-voting, btw), which covers<br>
block-migration only.<br>
The problem here is, that live-migration could be different, depending<br>
on how instance was booted(volume-backed/ephemeral), how environment is<br>
configured(is shared instance directory(NFS, for example), or RBD used<br>
to store ephemeral disk), or for example user don't have that and is<br>
going to use --block-migrate flag. To claim that we have reliable<br>
live-migration in nova, we should check it at least on envs with rbd or<br>
nfs as more popular than envs without shared storages at all.<br>
Here is the steps for that:<br>
<br></span>
1. make gate-tempest-dsvm-multinode-full voting, as it looks OK for<br>
block-migration testing purposes;<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
If it's been stable for awhile then I'd be OK with making it voting on nova changes, I agree it's important to have at least *something* that gates on multi-node testing for nova since we seem to break this a few times per release.<br>
<br>

2. contribute to tempest to cover volume-backed instances live-migration;<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
jogo has had a patch up for this for awhile:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://review.openstack.org/#/c/165233/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://review.openstack.org/#/c/165233/</a><br>
<br>
Since it's not full time on openstack anymore I assume some help there in picking up the change would be appreciated.<br>
<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
3. make another job with rbd for storing ephemerals, it also requires<br>
changing tempest config;<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
We already have a voting ceph job for nova - can we turn that into a multi-node testing job and run live migration with shared storage using that?<br>
<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
4. make job with nfs for ephemerals.<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
Can't we use a multi-node ceph job (#3) for this?<br>
<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><span class="">
<br>
These steps should help us to improve current situation with<br>
live-migration.<br>
