True,if you want to compared the performance of the Stein and Ocata, you should keep their configuration as the same, otherwise it's not representative. > sure too many flows take performance down. @崔恒香 I think you can set the configuration item " vif_plugging_is_fatal=False" [1] in the nova-compute.conf, and then compare the performance of Ocata and Stein version by creating the same quantity servers. And you can combine with the configuration item " vif_plugging_timeout" to use. This way, you can verify if you are creating servers slow because of network.

[oslo] Proposing Gabriele Santomaggio as oslo.messaging core
by Ben Nemec 02 Sep '19

02 Sep '19

Hello Norsk, It is my pleasure to propose Gabriele Santomaggio (gsantomaggio) as a new member of the oslo.messaging core team. He has been contributing to the project for about a cycle now and has gotten up to speed on our development practices. Oh, and he wrote the book on RabbitMQ[0]. :-) Obviously we think he'd make a good addition to the core team. If there are no objections, I'll make that happen in a week. Thanks. -Ben 0: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9781849516501.do

[ptl][cinder] U Cycle PTL Non-Candidacy ...
by Jay Bryant 02 Sep '19

02 Sep '19

All, I just wanted to communicate that I am not going to be running for another term as Cinder's PTL. It has been an honor to lead the Cinder team for the last two years. When I started working with OpenStack nearly 6 years ago, leading the Cinder team was one of my goals and I appreciate the team trusting me with this responsibility for the last 4 cycles. I have enjoyed watching the project evolve over the last couple of years, going from a focus on getting new features in place to a focus on ensuring that customers get reliable storage management with an ever improving user experience. Cinder's value in the storage community outside of OpenStack has been validated as other SDS solutions have leveraged it to provide storage management for the many vendors that Cinder supports. Cinder continues to grow by adding things like cinderlib, making it relevant not only in virtualized environments but also for containerized environments. I am glad that I have been able to help this evolution happen. As PTLs have done in the past, it is time for me to pursue other opportunities in the OpenStack ecosystem and hand over the reigns to a new leader. Cinder has a great team and will continue to do great things. Fear not, I am not going to go anywhere, I plan to continue to stay active in Cinder for the foreseeable future. Again, thank you for the opportunity to be Cinder's PTL, it has been a great ride! Sincerely, Jay Bryant (irc: jungleboyj)

[election][tc] Candidacy for TC
by Jean-Philippe Evrard 02 Sep '19

02 Sep '19

Hello everyone, I am hereby announcing my candidacy for a renewed position on the OpenStack Technical Committee (TC). I have been following the OpenStack ecosystem since Kilo. I went through multiple companies and wore multiple hats (A cloud end- user, an OpenStack advocate in meetups and at FOSDEM, a product owner of the cloud strategy, architect of a community cloud, a deployer, a developer, a team lead, a technology analyst), which gives me a unique view on OpenStack and other adjacent communities. I am now working full time on OpenStack for SUSE. During my time at the TC, I worked on refactoring the TC health check process, worked on community goals selection, and worked on different TC activities to help both the community and my company. During my first term, I have experienced or seen pain in the OpenStack processes: project health checks, community goals, release name selection are just a series of examples. I "learnt the ropes" during that first year, but I don't think the quality of life of the OpenStack contributors has increased, which was one of my personal goals. If I get elected, I want to change the TC from the inside, and through that, change OpenStack. These are not just changes I can drive from the outside as they involve mindset changes. Without further ado, here are a few of my crazy ideas. First, I want to make the TC a birthplace for innovation, instead of being so process oriented. I have the impression our processes dulled innovation. I want to remove processes, name conventions, and just allow people to propose ideas (if possible, the wildest and craziest ideas) to the TC. I believe this would help people feel empowered to change OpenStack. With the fact that we are more and more organising ourselves as teams of specific interest, I would like the TC to issue more official stances on how to implement OpenStack-wide changes/best-practices with the help of field experts. That would mean issuing more "goals" for the projects and define a roadmap more actively. (I would love to see recommendations on using the last features of the python language to simplify our code base for example!) Finally, I would like us to try a new kind of periodic "leadership" meeting. In those meetings PTLs and SIG chairs would discuss the issues they are recently facing. That means sharing all together, being a ground for proposing new ideas again. PTLs are too overburdened by their work and don't have the occasion to share experience/expertise/crazy ideas on tech debt reduction for example. I believe this would bring people closer together. Thank you, Jean-Philippe (evrardjp)

[heat][election][ptl] Heat PTL candidacy for Ussuri cycle
by Rico Lin 02 Sep '19

02 Sep '19

Dear Heat members, I would like to announce my candidacy as the Heat project team leader for Ussuri cycle. We have been suffered from a lack of people to help on review. So if you're reading this, please join us, and help with review and features. One of our current strategies is to make a worklist to target for each release and try to make those items finish on time. Also, another strategy is to get better integration with other projects or even cross communities. We have been triggered some discussion with SIGs and other projects to try to figgering where we can keep this integration moving. Appears we still got a lot of jobs to do. My plan for the next cycle will keep those two strategies, and extend from there if we got time. Please consider my candidacy. Thank you. Rico Lin (ricolin) -- May The Force of OpenStack Be With You, *Rico Lin*irc: ricolin
