[barbican][oslo][nova][glance][cinder] cursive library status
by Brian Rosmaita 27 May '26

27 May '26

Hello Barbican team, Apologies for not including barbican in the previous thread on this topic: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2020-December/019430… The situation is that cursive is used by Nova, Glance, and Cinder and we'd like to move it out of the 'x' namespace into openstack governance. The question is then what team would oversee it. It seems like a good fit for Oslo, and the Oslo team seems OK with that, but since barbican-core is currently included in cursive-core, it make sense to give the Barbican team first dibs. From the consuming teams' side, I don't think we have a preference as long as it's clear who we need to bother about approvals if a bugfix is posted for review. Thus my ask is that the Barbican team indicate whether they'd like to move cursive to the 'openstack' namespace under their governance, or whether they'd prefer Oslo to oversee the library. Thank you! brian

Fwd: DPDK+OVS with OpenStack
by Mark Wittling 24 Apr '25

24 Apr '25

Looking for someone who knows OpenStack with OpenVSwitch, and in addition to that, DPDK with OpenStack and OVS.I am using OpenStack Queens, with OpenVSwitch. The architecture I am using is documented here: https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/queens/admin/deploy-ovs-provider.htmlThe OVS I am using on the Compute Node, is compiled with DPDK, and I have enabled the datapath to netdev (DPDK) on br-prv (provider network bridge), and br-tun (tunneling bridge). But these two bridges, br-tun and br-prv, are patched into another OpenStack bridge, called br-int. I wasn’t actually sure about whether to tinker with this bridge, and wondered what datapath it was using.Then, I realized there is a parameter in the openvswitch_agent.ini file, which I will list here: # OVS datapath to use. 'system' is the default value and corresponds to the # kernel datapath. To enable the userspace datapath set this value to 'netdev'. # (string value) # Possible values: # system - <No description provided> # netdev - <No description provided> #datapath_type = system datapath_type = netdev So in tinkering with this, what I realized, is that when you set this datapath_type to system or netdev, it will adjust the br-int bridge to that datapath type.So here is my question. How can I launch a non-DPDK VM, if all of the bridges are using the netdev datapath type?Here is another question. What if one of the flavors don’t have the largepages property set on them? I assumed OpenStack would revert to a system datapath and not use DPDK for those VM interfaces. Well, I found out in testing, that is not the case. If you set all your bridges up for netdev, and you don’t set the property on the Flavor of the VM (largepages), the VM will launch, but it simply won’t work.Is there no way, on a specific Compute Host, to support both DPDK (netdev datapaths) and non-DPDK (system datapaths)?Either on a VM interface level (VM has one interface that is netdev DPDK and another that is system datapath non-DPDK)?Or on a VM by VM basis (VM 1 has 1 or more netdev datapath interfaces and VM 2 has 1 or more system datapath interfaces)?Am I right here? Once you set up a Compute Host for DPDK, it’s DPDK or nothing on that Compute Host? (edited)

How to config DPDK compute in OVN
by dangerzone ar 23 Apr '25

23 Apr '25

Hi....as far I understand ovs does support dpdk compute to be deployed. I'm referring to the guideline ' *https://docs.openstack.org/networking-ovn/queens/admin/dpdk.html <https://docs.openstack.org/networking-ovn/queens/admin/dpdk.html>* ' ... It's too brief.. May I know how to config dpdk compute in OVN networking openstack? Hope someone could help what is the config to be done.... Currently compute is run without dpdk over openstack train ovn based. Please need some info on how I can proceed. Thank you

Live migration fails
by Szabo, Istvan (Agoda) 07 Aug '24

07 Aug '24

Hi, I have couple of compute nodes where the live migration fails with existing vms. When I quickly spawn a vm and try live migration it works so I assume shouldn't be a big problem with the compute node. However I have many existing vms where it fails with a servername not found. /var/log/nova/nova-conductor.log:2021-04-21 14:47:12.605 227612 ERROR nova.conductor.tasks.migrate [req-f4067a26-a233-4673-8c07-9a8a290980b0 dce35e6eceea4312bb0baa0510cef363 ca7e35079f4440c78bd9870724b9638b - default default] [instance: 1517a2ac-3b51-4d8d-80b3-89a5614d1ae0] Unable to find record for source node servername on servername: ComputeHostNotFound: Compute host servername could not be found. /var/log/nova/nova-conductor.log:2021-04-21 14:47:12.605 227612 WARNING nova.scheduler.utils [req-f4067a26-a233-4673-8c07-9a8a290980b0 dce35e6eceea4312bb0baa0510cef363 ca7e35079f4440c78bd9870724b9638b - default default] Failed to compute_task_migrate_server: Compute host servername could not be found.: ComputeHostNotFound: Compute host servername could not be found. /var/log/nova/nova-conductor.log:2021-04-21 14:47:12.605 227612 WARNING nova.scheduler.utils [req-f4067a26-a233-4673-8c07-9a8a290980b0 dce35e6eceea4312bb0baa0510cef363 ca7e35079f4440c78bd9870724b9638b - default default] [instance: 1517a2ac-3b51-4d8d-80b3-89a5614d1ae0] Setting instance to ACTIVE state.: ComputeHostNotFound: Compute host servername could not be found. /var/log/nova/nova-conductor.log:2021-04-21 14:47:12.672 227612 ERROR oslo_messaging.rpc.server [req-f4067a26-a233-4673-8c07-9a8a290980b0 dce35e6eceea4312bb0baa0510cef363 ca7e35079f4440c78bd9870724b9638b - default default] Exception during message handling: ComputeHostNotFound: Compute host am-osfecn-4025 Tried with this command: nova live-migration --block-migrate id.

[all] Dynamic Zuul results table in Gerrit 3
by Radosław Piliszek 05 Aug '22

05 Aug '22

Hello Fellow OpenStack and OpenDev Folks! TL;DR click on [3] and enjoy. I am starting this thread to not hijack the discussion happening on [1]. First of all, I would like to thank gibi (Balazs Gibizer) for hacking a way to get the place to render the table in the first place (pun intended). I have been a long-time-now user of [2]. I have improved and customised it for myself but never really got to share back the changes I made. The new Gerrit obviously broke the whole script so it was of no use to share at that particular state. However, inspired by gibi's work, I decided to finally sit down and fix it to work with Gerrit 3 and here it comes: [3]. Works well on Chrome with Tampermonkey. Not tested others. I hope you will enjoy this little helper (I do). I know the script looks super fugly but it generally boils down to a mix of styles of 3 people and Gerrit having funky UI rendering. Finally, I'd also like to thank hrw (Marcin Juszkiewicz) for linking me to the original Michel's script in 2019. [1] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2020-November/019051… [2] https://opendev.org/x/coats/src/commit/444c95738677593dcfed0cfd9667d4c4f0d5… [3] https://gist.github.com/yoctozepto/7ea1271c299d143388b7c1b1802ee75e Kind regards, -yoctozepto

Nova not updating to new size of an extended in-use / attached cinder volume (Ceph RBD) to guest
by Christian Rohmann 28 Jun '22

28 Jun '22

Hello Openstack-Discuss, after some digging I found out that cinder learned to resize attached (in-use) volumes quite a while ago with the introduction of the initial "extend 'in-use' volume" feature: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/454287/ The support was then extended to also cover Ceph RBD backed volumes with: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/613039/ Since this is only about the cinder part, I was wondering if nova would ever find out and would actively rescan the device / volume and quintessentially present an increased new size to the guest. Apparently this is where a certain volume-extended event comes into play: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/454322/ that is to be emitted by cinder when a volume had been extened. I then went head and tried this with the openstack cli (as Horizon does not seem to support / offer to resize in-use volumes. I run Openstack Train with Ceph RBD as storage. First I ran into an issue with the openstack cli (https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1871759/comments/2 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1871759/comments/2>) but using cinder extend $volumeid $newsize I was able to resize in-use volumes just fine. The only thing missing was the propagation to the guest. I played around with SCSI rescans, but that did not work, reboots also failed to do anyting in this regards. Stopping and starting the VM did work, but why having the capability to online-resize an attached volume when not being able to resize the guest volume as well? Apparently there seems to be an old and somewhat similar observation / bug with https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1369465 So I was simply wondering if this is expected to be working? Are there any special settings / options I need to set to enable this feature? Thanks and with kind regards Christian

[oslo] Propose to EOL stable/queens, stable/rocky on all the oslo scope
by Herve Beraud 25 Jun '22

25 Jun '22

Hi, On our last meeting of the oslo team we discussed the problem with broken stable branches (rocky and older) in oslo's projects [1]. Indeed, almost all these branches are broken. Előd Illés kindly generated a list of periodic-stable errors on Oslo's stable branches [2]. Given the lack of active maintainers on Oslo and given the current status of the CI in those branches, I propose to make them End Of Life. I will wait until the end of month for anyone who would like to maybe step up as maintainer of those branches and who would at least try to fix CI of them. If no one will volunteer for that, I'll EOLing those branches for all the projects under the oslo umbrella. Let us know your thoughts. Thank you for your attention.

[TripleO] Core team cleanup
by James Slagle 31 Mar '22

31 Mar '22

Hello, I took a look at our core team, "tripleo-core" in gerrit. We have a few individuals who I feel have moved on from TripleO in their focus. I looked at the reviews from stackalytics.io for the last 180 days[1]. These individuals have less than 6 reviews, which is about 1 review a month: Bob Fournier Dan Sneddon Dmitry Tantsur Jiří Stránský Juan Antonio Osorio Robles Marius Cornea These individuals have publicly expressed that they are moving on from TripleO: Michele Baldessari wes hayutin I'd like to propose we remove these folks from our core team, while thanking them for their contributions. I'll also note that I'd still value +1/-1 from these folks with a lot of significance, and encourage them to review their areas of expertise! If anyone on the list plans to start reviewing in TripleO again, then I also think we can postpone the removal for the time being and re-evaluate later. Please let me know if that's the case. Please reply and let me know any agreements or concerns with this change. Thank you! [1] https://www.stackalytics.io/report/contribution?module=tripleo-group&projec… -- -- James Slagle --
