Steve,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I think you may have misunderstood our intent here. We are not seeking to lock in to a single OS vendor. Each COE driver can have a different OS. We can have multiple drivers per COE. The point is that drivers should be simple, and therefore should
support one Bay node OS each. That would mean taking what we have today in our Kubernetes Bay type implementation and breaking it down into two drivers: one for CoreOS and another for Fedora/Atomic. New drivers would start out in a contrib directory where
complete functional testing would not be required. In order to graduate one out of contrib and into the realm of support of the Magnum dev team, it would need to have a full set of tests, and someone actively maintaining it.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Multi-personality driers would be relatively complex. That approach would slow down COE specific feature development, and complicate maintenance that is needed as new versions of the dependency chain are bundled in (docker, k8s, etcd, etc.). We
have all agreed that having integration points that allow for alternate OS selection is still our direction. This follows the pattern that we set previously when deciding what networking options to support. We will have one that’s included as a default, and
a way to plug in alternates.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Here is what I expect to see when COE drivers are implemented:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Docker Swarm: </div>
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>Default driver Fedora/Atomic</div>
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>Alternate driver: TBD</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Kubernetes: </div>
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>Default driver Fedora/Atomic</div>
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>Alternate driver: CoreOS</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Apache Mesos/Marathon: </div>
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>Default driver: Ubuntu</div>
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>Alternate driver: TBD</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We can allow an arbitrary number of alternates. Those TBD items can be initially added to the contrib directory, and with the right level of community support can be advanced to defaults if shown to work better, be more straightforward to maintain,
be more secure, or whatever criteria is important to us when presented with the choice. Such criteria will be subject to community consensus. This should allow for free experimentation with alternates to allow for innovation. See how this is not locking in
a single OS vendor?</div>

Hongbin, I think the offer to support different OS options is a perfect example both of what we want and what we don't want. We definitely want to allow for someone like yourself to maintain templates for whatever OS they want and to have that option be easily
integrated in to a Magnum deployment. However, when developing features or bug fixes, we can't wait for you to have time to add it for whatever OS you are promising to maintain.<span style="color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class="">
<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">It might be true that supporting additional OS could slow down the development speed, but the key question is how much the impact will be. Does it outweigh the
benefits? IMO, the impact doesn’t seem to be significant, given the fact that most features and bug fixes are OS agnostic. Also, keep in mind that every features we introduced (variety of COEs, variety of Nova virt-driver, variety of network driver, variety
of volume driver, variety of …) incurs a maintenance overhead. If you want an optimal development speed, we will be limited to support a single COE/virt driver/network driver/volume driver. I guess that is not the direction we like to be?<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class="">
Instead, we would all be forced to develop the feature for that OS as well. If every member of the team had a special OS like that we'd all have to maintain all of them.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">To be clear, I don’t have a special OS, I guess neither do others who disagreed in this thread.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>

Alternatively, what was agreed on by most at the midcycle was that if someone like yourself wanted to support a specific OS option, we would have an easy place for those contributions to go without impacting the rest of the team. The team as a whole would agree
to develop all features for at least the reference OS.<span style="color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">Could we re-confirm that this is a team agreement? There is no harm to re-confirm it in the design summit/ML/team meeting. Frankly, it doesn’t seem to be.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>

Then individuals or companies who are passionate about an alternative OS can develop the features for that OS.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

That’s exactly my point. It takes a chunk of human bandwidth to carry that responsibility. If we had a system engineer assigned from each of the various upstream OS distros working with Magnum, this would not be a big deal. Expecting our current contributors
to support a variety of OS variants is not realistic.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

Change velocity among all the components we rely on has been very high. We see some of our best contributors frequently sidetracked in the details of the distros releasing versions of code that won’t work with ours. We want to upgrade a component to add a new
feature, but struggle to because the new release of the distro that offers that component is otherwise incompatible. Multiply this by more distros, and we expect a real problem.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

Actually, our existing gate tests are really stressing out our CI infra. At least one of the new infrastructure providers that replaced HP have equipment that runs considerably slower. For example, our swam functional gate now frequently fails because it can’t
finish before the allowed time limit of 2 hours where it could finish substantially faster before. If we expanded the workload considerably, we might quickly work to the detriment of other projects by perpetually clogging the CI pipelines. We want to be a
good citizen of the openstack CI community. Testing configuration of third party software should be done with third party CI setups. That’s one of the reasons those exist. Ideally, each would be maintained by those who have a strategic (commercial?) interest
in support for that particular OS.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

Remember that COE’s are tested on nova instances within heat stacks. Starting lots of nova instances within devstack in the gates is problematic. We are looking into using a libvirt-lxc instance type from nova instead of a libvirt-kvm instance to help alleviate
this. Until then, limiting the scope of our gate tests is appropriate. We will continue our efforts to make them reasonably efficient.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

I don't think anyone is saying that code should somehow block support for multiple distros. The discussion at midcycle was about what the we should gate on and ensure feature parity for as a team. Ideally, we'd like to get support for every distro, I think,
but no one wants to have that many gates. Instead, the consensus at the midcycle was to have 1 reference distro for each COE, gate on those and develop features there, and then have any other distros be maintained by those in the community that are passionate
about them.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

The issue also isn't about how difficult or not it is. The problem we want to avoid is spending precious time guaranteeing that new features and bug fixes make it through multiple distros. <o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Operators are used to using specific distros because that is what they used in the 90s,and the 00s, and the 10s. Yes, 25 years of using a distro, and you learn it inside and out.
This means you don't want to relearn a new distro, especially if your an RPM user going to DEB or a DEB user going to RPM. These are non-starter options for operators, and as a result, mean that distro choice is a must. Since CoreOS is a new OS in the marketplace,
it may make sense to consider placing it in "third" position in terms of support.</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div>

host if I want support I need to run Ubuntu vms, on a RHEL host I want to run RHEL vms, because, hey, I want my issues supported.</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<i class="">Removing the coreos templates was a part of the COE drivers decision. Since each COE driver will only support 1 distro+version+coe we discussed which ones to support in tree. The decision was that instead of trying to support every distro and every
version for every coe, the magnum tree would only have support for 1 version of 1 distro for each of the 3 COEs (swarm/docker/mesos). Since we already are going to support Atomic for swarm, removing coreos and keeping Atomic for kubernetes was the favored
choice.</i><o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<i class="">Strongly disagree. It is a huge risk to support a single distro. The selected distro could die in the future. Who knows. Why make Magnum take this huge risk? Again, the decision of supporting single distro is a very big decision. Please bring it
up to the team and have it discuss thoughtfully before making any decision. Also, Magnum doesn't have to support every distro and every version for every coe, but should support *more than one* popular distro for some COEs (especially for the popular COEs).</i><o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<i class="">The discussion at the midcycle started from the idea of adding support for RHEL and CentOS. We all discussed and decided that we wouldn't try to support everything in tree. Magnum would provide support in-tree for 1 per COE and the COE driver interface
would allow others to add support for their preferred distro out of tree.</i><o:p class=""></o:p></div>
