[release][PTL] broken gates and stuck releases
by Herve Beraud 17 Sep '21

17 Sep '21

Hello PTLs, For your information our gates are currently broken so we are not able to merge patches and so to release deliverables. indeed openstack/release rely on openstack/governance to validate releases. The governance repo relies on pybot2 which is no longer maintained and became not installable a few hours ago. That broke the release gate and led us to a catch-22 situation where we are not able to release the governance repo to fix our repo. Our current solution is to pull openstack/governance from git source instead of from pypi. By doing that we will pull the fixed version from opendev git and we will unblock our gates. In this way, we will be able to restart to merge patches and release deliverables. We currently wait for some feedback from the infra team to help us to force merging the needed fixes by using their gerrit super admin rights, hence, bypassing the catch-22 situation. This situation highlighted the cross dependency between these two repos (governance and releases) and I don't think that this is something healthy. I propose to keep pulling the governance repo from git source even after we will fix the catch-22 situation. Any opinions? Thanks for your understanding, we will inform you when we will have updates. https://opendev.org/openstack/governance/commit/9128e502253db9aac346ce25726… https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/809626 -- Hervé Beraud Senior Software Engineer at Red Hat irc: hberaud https://github.com/4383/ https://twitter.com/4383hberaud

Hi all, I was able to set "Create new volume" to no by default on the launch instance page by adding the following to /etc/openstack-dashboard/local_settings.py LAUNCH_INSTANCE_DEFAULTS ={ 'create_volume': False,} Is there anyway I can set "Delete Volume on Instance Delete" to yes by default should someone select to create a new volume when launching an instance. I tried the following but no luck LAUNCH_INSTANCE_DEFAULTS ={ 'create_volume': False, 'delete_on_termination': True} Thanks for any help/info in advance. Regards,Derek

How to resume/abort a migration in error state
by Yingji Sun 17 Sep '21

17 Sep '21

Buddies, I am in openstack train and I have some failure live-migration cases that leave some migration states to error. These failure cases may block the following migration request in “queued” state. Is it possible that I force to complete the failure cases ? live_migrate_force_complete only works for a “running”migration and live_migrate_abort works only for “running/queued/preparing”migration. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Yingji.

Autoscaling based on requests
by open infra 17 Sep '21

17 Sep '21

Hi, I have a requirement to allocate a server(VM) for each user request and make this automatic. Is it possible with Openstack autoscale? Scaling should not be done based on either cpu or memory usage as only one user is supposed to access a single VM. Regards, Danishka

[blazar] Third-party resource type plugins
by Jason Anderson 17 Sep '21

17 Sep '21

Hi all, I’ve just submitted a spec for making resources in Blazar follow a more explicit plugin architecture: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/blazar-specs/+/809485 The intent is to allow out-of-tree resource types, to allow deployers/operators to define their own abstractions. This could support some pretty wide-ranging implementations, like reserving bandwidth allocations on switches or perhaps access to other controlled/limited resources. I hope that this change will also enable Blazar to be adopted by a wider set of users and use cases. Please, have a look—it is currently proposed under Xena because there is not yet a Yoga spec section in blazar-specs. Cheers, /Jason
