[ironic] [tripleo] RFC: lzma vs gzip for compressing IPA initramfs
by Dmitry Tantsur 30 Nov '20

30 Nov '20

Hi folks, I've been playing with ways to reduce the size of our IPA images. While package removals can only save us tens of megabytes, switching from gzip to lzma reduces the size by around a third (from 373M to 217M in my testing). What's the caveat? The unpacking time increases VERY substantially. On my nested virt lab the 217M image took around 5 minutes to unpack. I'm not sure how much it will impact real bare metal, please feel free to test https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/ironic-python-agent-builder/+/764371 and tell me. So, what do you think? Switching to lzma by default will likely affect CI run time (assuming we still have DIB jobs somewhere...) and development environments, but it will also provide a visible reduction in the image size (which benefit all environments). Large TripleO images may particularly benefit from this (but also particularly affected by the unpacking time). Feedback is very welcome.

[openstack][neutron]How to establish existing Openstack in a single server to other multiple physical NIC port
by dangerzone ar 29 Nov '20

29 Nov '20

Hi, I have deployed packstack (All-In-One) openstack over single server and that openstack traffic is IN/Out via eth1 of the server and that's the network port configured during the packstack deployment. The server has 4 nic ports and only one (nic1) is used during openstack deployment. The openstack running good and my vm/vnf traffic can in/out via eth1. I would like to know how I can utilize other nic port (2,3,4) in my server so that openstack can leverage that port for my other VM/VNF that instantiate in my openstack. For example from the image attached, I want VM/VNF1 connect to nic2 and VM/VNF2 connect to nic3. Please advise how it can be done. I really hope someone could advise and help me further. Thank you. **This is standard openstack (deployed via packstack all-in-one) over single centos7 server that have 4 nic ports**

[telemetry] wallaby cycle planning session
by Matthias Runge 29 Nov '20

29 Nov '20

Hi there, one of the biggest challenges for the telemetry stack is currently the state of gnocchi, which is... undefined/unfortunate/under-contributed/...? Telemetry started long time ago as a simple component ceilometer, which was split into several components ceilometer, aodh, panko, and gnocchi. Julien wrote a story about this some time ago[1]. There has also been an attempt to fork gnocchi back to OpenStack[2]. To my knowledge, the original contributors are not paid anymore to work on gnocchi, and at the same time, moving on to do something else is totally fine. However, I am not sure if we (in OpenStack Telemetry) should or could maintain in addition to the rest of the telemetry stack a time-series database. I'd like to discuss this during a call. Please select time(s) that suit you best in this poll[3]. If you have questions or hints, don't hesitate to contact me. Thank you, Matthias [1] https://julien.danjou.info/lessons-from-openstack-telemetry-deflation/ [2] https://review.opendev.org/#/c/744592/ [3] https://doodle.com/poll/uqq328x5shr43awy

Hello Everyone, As the placement project is under Nova governance now[1], can we merge the IRC channel 'placement' into nova? I think that can be done via redirect way? [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/760917 -gmann

Re: [tripleo] Copying tripleo container images to quay.io
by Bogdan Dobrelya 27 Nov '20

27 Nov '20

So I explored how exactly skopeo copy works with the WIP zstd:chunked compression format. The main case here is when copying *new* layers of the *same* image. What is not the case in TripleO CI. We build images from scratch and tag it only once, like current-tripleo. Here ends that build's lifecycle. Had we decided to change that to update existing images, we could come back and try that new feature of skopeo, or may be even consume it directly via buildah bud, when it's there. Another caveat is that only OCI compliant registries could accept such zstd:chunked compressed layers. But anyway that was a good try...

[release] Release countdown for week R-20, Nov 23 - Nov 27
by Herve Beraud 26 Nov '20

26 Nov '20

Greetings Everyone! Development Focus ----------------- The Wallaby-1 milestone is next week, on December 03! Project team plans for the Wallaby cycle should now be solidified. General Information ------------------- If you planned to change the release model for any of your deliverables this cycle, please remember to do so ASAP, before milestone-1. Libraries need to be released at least once per milestone period. Next week, the release team will propose releases for any library which had changes but has not been otherwise released since the Victoria release. PTL's or release liaisons, please watch for these and give a +1 to acknowledge them. If there is some reason to hold off on a release, let us know that as well, by posting a -1. If we do not hear anything at all by the end of the week, we will assume things are OK to proceed. NB: If one of your libraries is still releasing 0.x versions, start thinking about when it will be appropriate to do a 1.0 version. The version number does signal the state, real or perceived, of the library, so we strongly encourage going to a full major version once things are in a good and usable state.
