[cinder][manila][swift] Edge discussions at the upcoming PTG
by Ildiko Vancsa 14 Oct '20

14 Oct '20

Hi, We’ve started to have discussions in the area of object storage needs and solutions for edge use cases at the last PTG in June. I’m reaching out with the intention to continue this chat at the upcoming PTG in a few weeks. The OSF Edge Computing Group is meeting during the first three days of the PTG like last time. We are planning to have edge reference architecture models and testing type of discussions in the first two days (October 26-27) and have a cross-project and cross-community day on Wednesday (October 28). We would like to have a dedicated section for storage either on Monday or Tuesday. I think it might also be time to revisit other storage options as well if there’s interest. What do people think? For reference: * Our planning etherpad is here: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/ecg-vptg-october-2020 * Notes from the previous PTG is here: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/ecg_virtual_ptg_planning_june_2020 Thanks, Ildikó

Multiple backend for Openstack
by Deepa KR 14 Oct '20

14 Oct '20

Hi All Good Day >From documentation we are able to understand that we can configure multiple backends for cinder (Ceph ,External Storage device or NFS etc) Is there any way we can choose the backend while instance launching .Say instance1 backend should be from an external storage device like EMC and instance2 to launch and have backend volume from ceph .Can this be achieved using cinder availability zone implementation or any other way? I have gone through below link (*section Configure Block Storage scheduler multi back end)* https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/admin/blockstorage-multi-backend.h… Suggestions please .. Regards, Deepa K R

[kolla] Reversing deprecation of VMware integration
by Mark Goddard 14 Oct '20

14 Oct '20

Hi, In the Ussuri release we deprecated support for VMware due to Nova deprecating their VMware driver, a lack of CI, and a lack of interest from the community. Since then, Nova has reversed the deprecation, and we know of at least one interested user. We are therefore reversing our deprecation of VMware support in Kolla. If you are interested in this driver, please help out with maintenance since we are unable to verify changes without CI. Regards, Mark

[ops][cinder] brocade fczm driver situation update
by Brian Rosmaita 14 Oct '20

14 Oct '20

Happy Victoria Release Day! This is a follow-up to my 26 June 2020 email concerning the proposed removal from cinder of the Brocade Fibre Channel Zone Manager driver [0], which, you may recall, the vendor no longer supports after the Train release and which was not operational in a Python 3 environment. The Cinder community has decided to assume the maintenance of this driver on a best-effort basis. See the "Known Issues" and "Other Notes" sections of the cinder victoria release notes [1] and the statement in the driver documentation [2] for what exactly this means. Special thanks to Cinder core Gorka Eguileor for driving this effort. Gorka fixed the bugs that hitherto prevented the driver from operating in Python 3, and these fixes have been backported to stable/ussuri and stable/train. Gorka also ran CI on driver against cinder victoria RC-1. The Brocade FCZM driver does not have ongoing third-party CI. If you use this driver, and would be interested in running third-party CI for it, please contact the Cinder project team. And if you have a relationship with the vendor, you may wish to ask them to reconsider their stance on this driver.

I did not try this yet since the documentation didn't mention it and for our current production system (mitaka, which someone else set up ages ago) this doesn't seem to be the case but volumes can still be attached.

[tripleo] deprecating Mistral service
by Emilien Macchi 14 Oct '20

14 Oct '20

Hi folks, In our long term goal to simplify TripleO and deprecate the services that aren't used by our community anymore, I propose that we deprecate Mistral services. Mistral was used on the Undercloud in the previous cycles but not anymore. While the service could be deployed on the Overcloud, we haven't seen any of our users doing it. If that would be the case, please let us know as soon as possible. Removing it from TripleO will help us with maintenance (container images, THT/puppet integration, CI, etc). Maybe we could deprecate it in Victoria and remove it in Wallaby? Thanks, -- Emilien Macchi
