[TripleO] Moving stable/rocky for *-tripleo-* repos to End of Life OK?
by Marios Andreou 01 Mar '21

01 Mar '21

Hello all, it's been ~ 2 months now since my initial mail about $subject [1] and just under a month since my last bump on the thread [2] and I haven't heard any objections so far. So I think it's now appropriate to move forward with [3] which tags the latest commits to the stable/rocky branch of all tripleo-repos [4] as 'rock-eol' (except archived things like instack/tripleo-ui). Once it merges we will no longer be able to land anything into stable/rocky for all tripleo repos and the stable/rocky branch will be deleted. So, last chance! If you object please go and -1 the patch at [3] and/or reply here thanks, marios [1] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2020-December/019338… [2] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-January/019860.… [3] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/774244 [4] https://releases.openstack.org/teams/tripleo.html

Moving ara code review to GitHub
by David Moreau Simard 01 Mar '21

01 Mar '21

Hi openstack-discuss, long time no see o/ I've long dreaded doing this and sending this email out because I know how the community feels about proprietary platforms and I value the four opens that the OpenStack community has taught me so much about. I've recently reached out and asked if people would be more likely to contribute to ara if pull requests were possible [1] and had a number of potential contributors interested. Don't get me wrong: I still like OpenStack (have a cloud in my basement!) and personally prefer the Gerrit change workflow to the one on GitHub. However, I've come to the conclusion that my personal preferences should not be a barrier to contribution and so for the health and sustainability of the project I'll move the code review for ara to GitHub leveraging Ansible's Zuul deployment [2] for CI. The truth is that ara never had many contributors and the few that were interested were often discouraged by the process involved in signing up and sending a change through Gerrit. It broke my heart to see a pull request being automatically closed with a template by an OpenStack bot. It broke my heart to have to tell people that they must jump through several hoops to send a patch. I was forever grateful every single time that someone actually went through the process and managed to get a patch merged with or without my help. For more than five years already, I've done my best to salvage these contributions and ask for help but at the end of the day, most of the Ansible community projects are on GitHub and it has weighed down on me heavily to battle this inertia. Frankly, it has been exhausting and even depressing sometimes. I'm thankful for the OpenStack (and OpenDev) communities for hosting the project until now and hope to continue talking to you on freenode -- you can find me in #ara amongst many other channels. See you around ! [1]: https://github.com/ansible-community/ara/issues/205 [2]: https://dashboard.zuul.ansible.com/t/ansible/status David Moreau Simard dmsimard = [irc, github, twitter]

Neutron DVR Public IP usage
by Satish Patel 01 Mar '21

01 Mar '21

Folks, Many years ago I deployed DVR (distributed virtual router) with packstack and found it required public IPs on each computes node + SNAT IPs, now the question is if i have 300 compute nodes then how do i deploy DVR with /24 public subnet which i have. If my cloud computes are going to eat up my all public IP then who is going to deploy DVR? In short, DVR is a bad idea for public clouds until IPv6 takes over the world, am I missing something?

Need core reviewers for sqlalchemy-migrate
by Thomas Goirand 01 Mar '21

01 Mar '21

Hi, Left, there's only myself and Monty as core reviewers. I don't have the skills, or time for this. The only reason I'm a core reviewer, is that historically, I was the one pointing out it got unmaintained, back a long time ago (many years from now). So it'd be nice of some people could step up and become core reviewer of SQLA-migrate please. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Is it possible to support multiple instances_path?
by QingFeng Hao 27 Feb '21

27 Feb '21

Hello Everyone, This is QingFeng from IBM, I have used openstack for years, now I did some investigation and noticed that instances_path in nova.conf in compute host can only specify one path to store the instances. The question is, is it possible to support multipath instances_path for different projects (tenants)? For example, instances_path = path1, path2, and path1 for project1, path2 for project2, with this way, we can achieve the isolation and different storages of different purposes for different projects. This could be valuable in some situations. So I am curious if there is any plan to do it so that I can leverage and don't have to implement it by myself. :-) Thanks a lot! Best regards QingFeng Hao

How to configure interfaces in CentOS 8.3 for OSA installation?
by Amey Abhyankar 27 Feb '21

27 Feb '21

Hello, I am trying to install OpenStack by referring following guides = 1) https://docs.openstack.org/project-deploy-guide/openstack-ansible/latest/de… 2) https://docs.openstack.org/openstack-ansible/victoria/user/test/example.html In link number 2, there is a step to configure interfaces. In CentOS 8 we don't have a /etc/network/interfaces file. Which interface file should I configure? Or do I need to create all virtual int's manually using nmcli? Pls suggest thanks. Regards, Amey.

[cinder] cinder-tempest-plugin-lvm-lio-barbican failures
by Brian Rosmaita 27 Feb '21

27 Feb '21

The backup tests in the cinder-tempest-plugin-lvm-lio-barbican job have been failing for the past 24 hours or so. Luigi has a patch up that we think will fix this: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder-tempest-plugin/+/777685 Until that merges, there's no point in rechecking cinder-tempest-plugin-lvm-lio-barbican failures. cheers, brian

Broken Security Link on Website and general bad discoverability of security related information
by Sven Kieske 26 Feb '21

26 Feb '21

Hi, I just noticed, while researching information regarding these two CVEs: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-3177 https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-23336 That the Link to the Security Contacts on the Website is broken: https://www.openstack.org/openstack-security/ is a 404 for me. I found the dead link here: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-announce Another "Bug" imho is, that there is no information how to contact the security team on the main website, and the search for "security" does not really yield good results how to contact the security team either. If someone has any information on these vulnerabilities and how they affect openstack I'd be delighted to hear from you. a cursory search of gerrit didn't yield anything. If I search the website using the integrated search for the CVE the top result is some 2021 Board Election.. RedHat and Suse both state that their distributions of openstack are affected: https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2021-23336 https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-23336/ So I guess the base distro is also affected, as these are core openstack components imho?
