[swift]: issues with multi region (swift as backend for glance)
by fsbiz＠yahoo.com 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Hi folks, We're on queens release. We have just setup a 2nd region. So, now we have two regions regionOne and regionTwo We had a storage cluster in regionOne. Everything works good.We also added another storage cluster in regionTwo and have created swift endpoints for this.Using swift API, everything works fine. The container is properly created in regionOne or regionTwo asdesired. We are also using swift as the glance backend. We are seeing an issue with this for regionTwo.When I create an image in regionTwo, it seems like the glance storage backend is not properly recognizingthe endpoint and wants to store the image in regionOne. This looks like a definite bug.I can work around it by overriding the endpoint using swift_store_endpoint but if there is a known bugabout this issue I would rather patch it than resort to overriding the URL endpoint returned from "auth". Is this a known bug ? Again, we are on the latest Queens release. thanks,Fred.

Queens steal time [nova]
by Budai Laszlo 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Hello all, we are comparing the behavior of our queens openstack with kilo. In queens we are observing an increase in the steal time reported in the guest along with the increase of the load averages. All this is happening while the host is not overloaded, and reports 80+ idle time Initially we have suspected that the overcommit might be the reason of the steal, so we have migrated vms, and now there are 42 vCPUs used out of the 48 pCPUs, but in the guest we still observe the steal time. with similar configuration in openstack kilo we see smaller load, and almost no steal time at all. what could be the reason of this steal time when there is no CPU overcommit? Thank you for any ideas. Kind regards, Laszlo

[Manila] Manila user overwriting existing Ceph users
by Babel Jahson 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Hello everyone, I'm currently testing manila with CephFS and I stumbled upon a behavior where manila is able to overwrite existing Ceph users. In my testing setup glance, nova, cinder and manila share the same Ceph cluster. However they have different users. In this situation when you create a share and allow acces via "manila access-allow cephshare1 cephx test" If the user "test" is already used to access some pools on the cluster, let's say cinder-volume or glance-images it will be overwritten with the permissions for the share. Which will break any resources that was using it. I've recheck the configuration files multiple times to see if I could set some properties to avoid this but I didn't find any. By quickly looking at the code here : https://opendev.org/openstack/manila/src/branch/master/manila/share/drivers… A check is done but only for the manila user. I'm on Rocky version but this part doesn't seems to have changed since. That lead me to some questions : - Does manila must have his own dedicated Ceph cluster ? - Is there any workaroud to this ? Other than putting some gibberish names for services users ? - Is it possible to lock some users in the Ceph cluster to prevent this behavior ? If someone has some clues on this, thanks in advance.

multiple nfs shares with cinder-backup
by MaSch 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Hello all! I'm currently using openstack queens with cinder 12.0.10. I would like to a backend I'm using a NFS-share. Now i would like to spit my backups up to two nfs-shares. I have seen that the cinder.volume.driver can handle multiple nfs shares. But it seems that cinder.backup.driver can not. Is there a way to use two nfs shares for backups? Or is it maybe possible with a later release of Cinder? regards, MaSch

[tripleo] stein branch transition to extended maintenance
by Marios Andreou 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Hello TripleOs The stein branch is about to transition to extended maintenance [1]. This will happen after the proposal at [2] is approved (by us) and merged. The latest release of stein for each of the repos in [2] will be tagged as extended maintenance. We have the option of first making another (final) release, if there is something newer in stein that we need to be included. We will continue to allow for bug fixes to be committed to stein however there will be no more releases made after this point. So, does anyone need a final release made for the stein branch for one of the repos in [3]. If no one speaks up then I will +1 the patch at [2] tomorrow thanks, marios [1] https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/stable-branches.html#maintena… [2] https://review.opendev.org/#/c/762411/ [3] https://releases.openstack.org/teams/tripleo.html#stein
