[election][kuryr] PTL Candidacy for Yoga
by Maysa De Macedo Souza 23 Aug '21

23 Aug '21

Hello OpenStack community, I would like to continue serving as Kuryr PTL for the Yoga cycle. I have started serving as Kuryr PTL in the Wallaby cycle. It has been a great opportunity to contribute back to the community as PTL and I would like to continue doing that. In the Xena cycle we achieved the following goals: * CI improvements: started moving gates to use OVN by default while still having a few supporting OVS. * Dev env improvements: Support for Kubeadm for DevStack installations. * Extended features in Kuryr: Support to reconcile Load Balancer with respective Kubernetes Service, improvement on the Kuryr logs. * Increased diversity of contributors with great addition of contributors from the Outreachy program. For the next cycle, I propose the following goals for Kuryr: * Improve CI: we already did great improvements, but we must continuously work on it to provide better and quicker feedback during the development process. * Migrate CNI code from pyroute2.IPDB to NDB; Add support to reconciliation of other Kubernetes resources; Reduce OpenStack resource usage; Provide better debugging by relying on Kubernetes events. Thank you for your consideration. Kind regards, Maysa Macedo

Hello OpenStack Community! I would like to announce my candidacy for another term on the Technical Committee. First of all, I have appreciated the opportunity to serve on the TC for the last two years. I have endeavored to use this time to get to know the broader community better and have also tried to better understand the role and activities of the TC. With this experience under my belt I would like to continue to work with the TC in the coming year to address some of the challenges that currently face the community. Most importantly the challenge of getting more new companies and contributors to engage with the OpenStack community. I also would like to continue to work with the TC to innovate and improve OpenStack's processes given the always changing landscape of the community. I appreciate you all taking the time to read/consider my candidacy! Sincerely, Jay Bryant (jungleboyj)

[masakari] Deprecating process monitor - querying the community in this thread
by Radosław Piliszek 23 Aug '21

23 Aug '21

Hello users of Masakari, As the Masakari core team, we have discussed the deprecation/retirement of one of the monitors - the process monitor. The reason is simple - we consider its mission is better handled by other software such as Kubernetes, Docker, or systemd, depending on how you deploy your OpenStack cluster. I believe the process monitor might have made sense in the pre-containerisation, pre-systemd world but it does not seem to any longer. Please let us know, by replying to this mail, if you have a use case for the process monitor that cannot be handled by the aforementioned software. -yoctozepto

[election][nova][placement] PTL candidacy for Yoga
by Sylvain Bauza 23 Aug '21

23 Aug '21

Hello Nova (and Placement) fellows, That's been some time I started to work on OpenStack and Nova in particular (I leave you guessing it [1]) but I feel this is time for me to run for the Nova PTL election and ask you to accept me for this hot seat (which is not a Yoga mat). First and foremost, I'd like to thank gibi for the hard work he did on the previous cycles, especially during this (hopefully) transient situation we currently face which challenges us in terms of teamwork. Running our team gatherings virtually twice is awfully exhausting and I also thank you all for supporting this situation. Hopefully our next PTG will be the last virtual one but who knows. I personally feel Nova now entered a period of quiet but productive pace. We accepted a solid amount of blueprints over the past cycles but we also delivered a decent ratio of them. That said, many challenges occur as of now which as a PTL I have the intention to continue to stress on and engage discussions between us how to solve them : - CI stability : We recently faced a couple of bugs that prevented us to merge code and I have the feeling that some of them are intertwined. I'd like us to identify all the stressing bits so we could prioritize any kind of tech debt fix that would help to gain better stability and not treat them as just standard bugs that we only look after our feature delivery duties. - Upgrades : I'm very happy to say we solved the long-running problem of version-to-next upgrades which are now painless. We have a couple of tools for helping operators to gain confidence before upgrades and we also have CI jobs that prove their stability. That said, I personally feel we now have another dimension of upgrades we barely scratched to define and I would like us to think about them. Placement reshapes and fast-forward-upgrades are for example two new features that Nova supports but I'd like us to take a second and identify all the improvements we could make for those (and prioritize efforts accordingly) - Contributors diversity : I don't think there is any surprise if I say that our Nova community is smaller than before. I don't think it's a problem and as I already said, we're productive. No, the concern that I have is that I'd love to have a way to help contributors that are maybe not having time to develop on Nova as a primary day-to-day job. We started to discuss on ways to define review priorities and I would like to pursue this direction by wondering what and how we could do for those contributors. Either way, I truly respect the ideal of Open Design. Whatever Nova becomes or evolves in the future, every single contributor is part of it and my role will be to make sure we have a consensus. Thanks, -Sylvain [1] 0x7DD

how to update existing vm instances 'availability_zone' field in nova database 'instances' table
by hai wu 21 Aug '21

21 Aug '21

Hi, How to update existing vm instances 'availability_zone' field in nova database 'instances' table? It turns out there are many VMs with default 'nova' availability zone, while the hypervisors are with another different target aggregate/availability zone name, thus live migration for these VMs are failing. The strange thing is that the 'OS-EXT-AZ:availability_zone' output from 'openstack server show VM_NAME' is showing these VMs are already with the target availibity_zone name. No idea why we have this inconsistency. Would it be ok to just update database table entry directly to set 'availility_zone' to different value for these VMs? Or there might be better alternatives I am not aware of? Thanks, Hai

[election][tc] TC Candidacy
by Ghanshyam Mann 20 Aug '21

20 Aug '21

Hello Everyone, I would like to announce my candidacy for another term on the Technical Committee. First of all, thanks for giving me the opportunity as the Technical Committee member in the previous terms. Apart from TC activities, I am currently a core developer in QA projects and Nova. Also, helping project-config, OpenStack zuul-jobs, Tempest plugins for bug fixes/ Tempest compatibility and in the policy-popup team to make Openstack API policy more consistent and secure. And helping with community-wide goals; because we did not have any community-wide goals for the Xena cycle, I worked on finishing the previous cycles' pending goals. I am serving as TC chair in Xena cycle. TC directions have always been valuable and help to maintain the common standards in OpenStack. In my next term, I would like to continue doing cross-project teams work to solve OpenStack's common problems. Helping secure RBAC with Lance is one of my priority targets for the Yoga cycle, and we are also proposing that as a community-wide goal. Another area I would like to focus on improving TC interaction with community leaders and Board. Apart from that, I will continue working on the activities I am currently doing as TC and help the community grow. Thank you for reading and considering my candidacy. - Ghanshyam Mann (gmann)

[tripleo] Changing TripleO's release model
by Wesley Hayutin 20 Aug '21

20 Aug '21

Greetings TripleO community! At the most recent TripleO community meetings we have discussed formally changing the OpenStack release model for TripleO [1]. The previous released projects can be found here [2]. TripleO has previously released with release-type[‘trailing’, ‘cycle-with-intermediary’]. To quote the release model doc: ‘Trailing deliverables trail the release, so they cannot, by definition, be independent. They need to pick between cycle-with-rc <https://releases.openstack.org/reference/release_models.html#cycle-with-rc> or cycle-with-intermediary <https://releases.openstack.org/reference/release_models.html#cycle-with-int…> models.’ We are proposing to update the release-model to ‘independent’. This would give the TripleO community more flexibility in when we choose to cut a release. In turn this would mean less backporting, less upstream and 3rd party resources used by potentially some future releases. To quote the release model doc: ‘Some projects opt to completely bypass the 6-month cycle and release independently. For example, that is the case of projects that support the development infrastructure. The “independent” model describes such projects.’ The discussion here is to merely inform the greater community with regards to the proposal and conversations regarding the release model. This thread is NOT meant to discuss previous releases or their supported status, merely changing the release model here [3] [0] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/tripleo-meeting-items [1] https://releases.openstack.org/reference/release_models.html [2] https://releases.openstack.org/teams/tripleo.html [3] https://opendev.org/openstack/releases/src/branch/master/deliverables/xena

[release] Release countdown for week R-6, Aug 23 - Aug 27
by Herve Beraud 20 Aug '21

20 Aug '21

In last week's email we erroneously announced that this week (August 19) would be the deadline for all non-client libraries, while only Oslo libraries were concerned. See this email for updated dates. Development Focus ----------------- Work on libraries should be wrapping up, in preparation for the various library-related deadlines coming up. Now is a good time to make decisions on deferring feature work to the next development cycle in order to be able to focus on finishing already-started feature work. General Information ------------------- We are now getting close to the end of the cycle, and will be gradually freezing feature work on the various deliverables that make up the OpenStack release. This coming week is the deadline for general libraries (except client libraries): their last feature release needs to happen before "Non-client library freeze" on August 26. Only bugfixes releases will be allowed beyond this point. When requesting those library releases, you can also include the stable/xena branching request with the review (as an example, see the "branches" section here: https://opendev.org/openstack/releases/src/branch/master/deliverables/pike/… In the next weeks we will have deadlines for: * Client libraries (think python-*client libraries), which need to have their last feature release before "Client library freeze" (Sept 2nd) * Deliverables following a cycle-with-rc model (that would be most services), which observe a Feature freeze on that same date, September 2nd. Any feature addition beyond that date should be discussed on the mailing-list and get PTL approval. As we are getting to the point of creating stable/xena branches, this would be a good point for teams to review membership in their xena-stable-maint groups. Once the stable/xena branches are cut for a repo, the ability to approve any necessary backports into those branches for xena will be limited to the members of that stable team. If there are any questions about stable policy or stable team membership, please reach out in the #openstack-stable channel. Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Non-client library freeze: August 26 (R-6 week) Client library freeze: September 2nd (R-5 week) Xena-3 milestone: September 2nd (R-5 week) Cycle Highlights Due: September 2nd (R-5 week) Xena final release: October 6th Yeti PTG: October 18-22 -- Hervé Beraud Senior Software Engineer at Red Hat irc: hberaud https://github.com/4383/ https://twitter.com/4383hberaud

[sahara] Sahara maintenance - PTL vacancy and call for contributions
by Jeremy Freudberg 20 Aug '21

20 Aug '21

Hi, I've worked on Sahara for a long time, especially since the Mirantis folks left. I implemented many features and fixes from 2017 through 2019 but barely anything more recently. Now it is time for me to actually move on. I don't plan to be PTL in the upcoming cycle. Sahara is not in especially good shape, given the situation with the vendors and other neglect. Help is needed, in order for Sahara to continue as a useful project. As of now I am not aware of anyone to fill the PTL role or generally contribute to the project. If you use Sahara and have interest in maintaining it, please reach out. Thanks, Jeremy
