[cyborg][nova][neutron]Summaries of Smartnic support integration
by yumeng bao 03 Jun '20

03 Jun '20

Hi all, In cyborg pre-PTG meeting conducted last week[0],shaohe from Intel introduced SmartNIC support integrations,and we've reached some initial agreements: The workflow for a user to create a server with network acceleartor(accelerator is managed by Cyborg) is: 1. create a port with accelerator request specified into binding_profile field NOTE: Putting the accelerator request(device_profile) into binding_profile is one possible solution implemented in our POC. Another possible solution,adding a new attribute to port object for cyborg specific use instead of using binding_profile, is discussed in shanghai Summit[1]. This needs check with neutron team, which neutron team would suggest? 2.create a server with the port created Cyborg-nova-neutron integration workflow can be found on page 3 of the slide[2] presented in pre-PTG. And we also record the introduction! Please find the pre-PTG meeting vedio record in [3] and [4], they are the same, just for different region access.

[all] Week Out PTG Details & Registration Reminder
by Kendall Nelson 02 Jun '20

02 Jun '20

Hello Everyone! We are so excited to see you next week at our first virtual PTG! Below are all the details you need to have a fun and successful event. First and foremost: PLEASE REGISTER; https://virtualptgjune2020.eventbrite.com/ If you don't register for the event, we have no way of sending you information about the event, specifically the passwords that we will have set on the zoom rooms. Registration is free. =Final Schedule= The final schedule for the event is available here[1] and in the PTGBot[2]. =Tooling & Passwords= For each virtual PTG meeting room, we will provide an official Zoom videoconference room, which will be reused by various groups across the day. Please make sure to leave the room at the end of your team meeting! We will be setting passwords on the rooms to prevent vandalism/harassment, and we will send those out 24 hours before the start of the event. OpenDev's Jitsi Meet instance is also available at https://meetpad.opendev.org as an alternative tooling option to create team-specific meetings. This is more experimental and may not work as well for larger groups, but has the extra benefit of including etherpad integration (the videoconference doubles as an etherpad document, avoiding jumping between windows). PTGBot can be used to publish the chosen meeting URL if you decide to not use the official Zoom one. The OpenDev Sysadmins can be reached in the #opendev IRC channel if any problems arise. We recommend you try out Zoom and Meetpad ahead of the PTG to solve audio/video issues. =IRC= The main form of synchronous communication between attendees during the PTG is on IRC. If you are not on IRC, learn how to get started here [3]. The main PTG IRC channel is #openstack-ptg on Freenode, and it's used to interact with the PTGbot. The OpenStack Foundation (OSF) staff will be present to help answer questions. =PTGbot= The PTGbot[2] is an open source tool that PTG room moderators use to surface what's currently happening at the event. Room moderators will send messages to the bot via IRC, and from that information the bot publishes a webpage with several sections of information: - The discussion topics currently discussed in the room ("now") - An indicative set of discussion topics coming up next ("next") - The schedule for the day with available extra slots you can book Learn more about the PTGbot via the documentation here [4]. =Help Desk= We are here to help! If you have any questions during the event week, we will have a dedicated Zoom room where an OSF staff member will be available to answer your event related questions. If a staff member is not there to help, you can always reach someone at ptg(a)openstack.org or on IRC in the #openstack-ptg channel. =Feedback= We have created an etherpad[5] to collect all of your feedback throughout the event. Please add your thoughts so we can continue improving our virtual events! =Virtual Event Best Practices= Check out our list of virtual event best practices[6] prior to the event to help make the most of your time at the PTG. =Code of Conduct= The PTG is for everyone. We have zero tolerance for harassment and other violations of the OSF Community Code of Conduct. Before the PTG begins, please review the Code of Conduct[7] and know how to report an issue. -The Kendalls (diablo_rojo & wendallkaters) [1] Schedule: https://www.openstack.org/ptg#tab_schedule [2] Live PTGBot: http://ptg.openstack.org/ptg.html [3] IRC Setup: https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/common/irc.html [4] PTGBot Documentation: https://github.com/openstack/ptgbot/blob/master/README.rst [5] Feedback Etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/June2020-PTG-Feedback [6] PTG Best Practices: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/virtual-ptg-best-practices [7] Code of Conduct: https://www.openstack.org/legal/community-code-of-conduct/

[cinder] [ironic] Any update on Cinder Ceph ISCSI Driver?
by kevinz 02 Jun '20

02 Jun '20

Hi Cinder, We are looking forward to the IRONIC boot from Cinder Ceph Volume. I went through the mailist and found the conversation last year, the main gap for the Ironic boot from Cinder volume(Ceph BACKEND) is lacking Cinder Ceph iscsi driver. http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2019-May/006041.html So I'm sending to ask the current status for this. We are from Linaro, all our machines are under Ironic and we use Ceph as backend storage. Recently we are looking at the Diskless server boot plan from the Ceph cluster. Any info or update or advice, I really appreciate it. Look forward to hearing from you.

[cinder][security] propose Rajat Dhasmana for cinder coresec
by Brian Rosmaita 02 Jun '20

02 Jun '20

Jay Bryant is stepping down from the Cinder core security team due to time constraints. I am proposing to replace him with Rajat Dhasmana (whoami-rajat on IRC). Rajat is has been a cinder core since January 2019 and is a thorough and respected reviewer and developer. Additionally, he'll extend our time zone coverage so that there will always be someone available to review/work on security patches around the clock. I intend to add Rajat to cinder coresec on Tuesday, 2 June; please communicate any concerns to me before then. cheers, brian

by Mohammed Naser 01 Jun '20

Hello everyone, The PTG is happening online next week, on the same day as our TC monthly meeting. Since the PTG is only every six months, and we will meet the month after, how does everyone feel about skipping this month's meeting and considering the PTG as our meeting instead? Your comments are appreciated, Thanks, -- Mohammed Naser VEXXHOST, Inc.

[nova][ptg] Documentation in nova
by Stephen Finucane 01 Jun '20

01 Jun '20

Hi, [This is a topic from the PTG etherpad [0]. As the PTG time is intentionally kept short, let's try to discuss it or even conclude it before the PTG] Our documentation in nova is suffering from bit rot, the ongoing effects of the documentation migration during Pike (I think), and general lack of attention. I've been working to tackle this but progress has been very slow. I suggested this a couple of PTGs ago, but once again I'd like to explore going on a solo run with these by writing and self-approving (perhaps after a agreed interval) *multiple* large doc refactors. I've left some notes below, copied from the Etherpad, but in summary I believe this is the only realistic way we will ever be able to fix our documentation. Cheers, Stephen [0] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-victoria-ptg --- Documentation reviews are appreciated but are generally seen as low priority. See: * https://review.opendev.org/667165 (docs: Rewrite quotas documentation) * https://review.opendev.org/667133 (docs: Rewrite host aggregate, availability zone docs) * https://review.opendev.org/664396 (docs: Document how to revert, confirm a cold migration) * https://review.opendev.org/635243 (docs: Rework the PCI passthrough guides) * https://review.opendev.org/640730 (docs: Rework all things metadata'y) * https://review.opendev.org/625878 (doc: Rework 'resize' user doc) * ... I (stephenfin) want permission to iterate on documentation and merge unilaterally unless someone expresses a clear interest Pros: * Documentation gets better * I can iterate *much* faster Cons: * Possibility of mistakes or "bad documentation is worse than no documentation" * Counterpoint: Our documentation is already bad/wrong and is getting worse due to bitrot. * Better is subjective * Counterpoints: The general structure of the patches I listed above was accepted in each case, I have other projects I have authored to point to (e.g. patchwork.readthedocs.io/) * Merge conflicts * Counterpoint: It's docs. Just drop these (non-functional) hunks if it's awkward.
