[nova] [placement] Proposing Sean Mooney as nova-core
by Sylvain Bauza 20 Jan '22

20 Jan '22

Hi all, I would like to propose Sean as an addition to the nova-core team (which includes placement merge rights as nova-core is implicitly a subgroup). As we know, he's around for a long time, is already a nova-specs-core and has proven solid experience in reviews. Cores, please vote (-1, 0, +1) before next Wednesday Jan 19th 1600UTC. Cheers, -Sylvain

Cannot ssh/ping instance
by Celinio Fernandes 20 Jan '22

20 Jan '22

Hi, I am running Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS on Virtualbox. I installed OpenStack (Xena release) through Devstack. Here is the content of my /opt/stack/devstack/local.conf file : [[local|localrc]] ADMIN_PASSWORD=secret DATABASE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD RABBIT_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD SERVICE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD HOST_IP=10.0.2.15 I created an instance through Horizon. The security group contains the 2 rules needed (one to be able to ping and one to be able to ssh the instance). I also allocated and associated a floating IP address. And a ssh key pair. Here is the configuration : openstack server list ---------------------------------+--------------------------+---------+ | ID | Name | Status | Networks | Image | Flavor | ---------------------------------+--------------------------+---------+ | f5f0fdd5-298b-4fa3-9ee9-e6e4288f4327 | InstanceJanvier | ACTIVE | shared=172.24.4.133, 192.168.233.165 | cirros-0.5.2-x86_64-disk | m1.nano | ------------------------------------------------------+ openstack network list : ------------------------------------------------------+ | ID | Name | Subnets | ------------------------------------------------------+ | 96a04799-7fc7-4525-b05c-ad57261aed38 | public | 07ce42db-6f3f-4135-ace7-2fc104ea62a0, 6dba13fc-b10c-48b1-b1b4-e1f1afe25b53 | | c42638dc-fa56-4644-ad34-295fce4811d2 | shared | a4e2d8cc-02b2-42e2-a525-e0eebbb08980 | | ffb8a527-266e-4e96-ad60-f7e9aba8f0c1 | private | 42e36677-cf3c-4df4-88a1-8cf79b9d6060, e507e6dd-132a-4249-96b1-83761562dd73 | ------------------------------------------------------+ openstack router list : +--------------------------------------+----------------+--------+------ | ID | Name | Status | State | Project | +--------------------------------------+----------------+--------+------ | b9a15051-a532-4c93-95ad-53c057720c62 | Virtual_router | ACTIVE | UP | 6556c02dd88f4c45b535c2dbb8ba1a04 | +--------------------------------------+----------------+--------+------ I cannot ping/ssh neither the fixed IP address or the floating IP address : ping -c 3 172.24.4.133 PING 172.24.4.133 (172.24.4.133) 56(84) bytes of data. --- 172.24.4.133 ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2035ms ping -c 3 192.168.233.165 PING 192.168.233.165 (192.168.233.165) 56(84) bytes of data. --- 192.168.233.165 ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2035ms Maybe that has something to do with the network namespaces configuration on Ubuntu. Does anyone know what could go wrong or what is missing ? Thanks for helping.

[cinder] review priorities for the next 2 days
by Brian Rosmaita 20 Jan '22

20 Jan '22

Not surprisingly, the review priority for the next 2 days is to review new driver patches. The merge deadline is tomorrow (21 January) at 20:00 UTC. To be more specific: We have 2 new drivers that depend on the following patches that generalize the hitachi driver: - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/786873 - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/815461 Then there are the 2 drivers that depend on the above; they are small patches and each of their third-party CIs is running: - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/815582 - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/815614 So those should be fairly quick reviews. The teams have been quick to respond to comments. There is also the Lightbits driver; it has both cinder and os-brick patches: - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/821602 - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-brick/+/821603 Their third-party CI is running and they have been very responsive to reviews. So really, only 3 new drivers to review! Other drivers: - TOYOU NetStor - merged! \o/ - Pure NVMe-RoCE - vendor is now aiming to merge in Z - Dell EMC PowerStore NFS - vendor is now aiming to merge in Z - YADRO Tatlin - initial commit posted today; has not yet passed Zuul. (Look at it if you have spare time, but please prioritize the patches listed above.)

Hi, I posted yesterday about my issue http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2022-January/026796.… but having looked in to it I think it's a Nova problem and should be solved by Nova Compute. I've pushed up a quick patch I wrote https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/825496 that's running on my systems. Thoughts? Thanks, Imran

[cyborg] Proposing core reviewers
by Brin Zhang(张百林) 19 Jan '22

19 Jan '22

Hello all, Eric xie has been actively contributing to Cyborg in various areas, adding new features, improving quality, reviewing patches. Despite the relatively short time, he has been one of the most prolific contributors, and brings an enthusiastic and active mindset. I would like to thank and acknowledge him for his steady valuable contributions, and propose him as a core reviewer for Cyborg. Some of the currently listed core reviewers have not been participating for a lengthy period of time. It is proposed that those who have had no contributions for the past 18 months �C i.e. no participation in meetings, no code contributions, not participating in Cyborg open source activities and no reviews �C be removed from the list of core reviewers. -- The Cyborg team recognizes everyone's contributions, but we need to ensure the activity of the core-reviewer list. If you are interested in rejoining the cyborg team, feel free to ping us to restore the core reviewer for you. If no objections are made known by January 24, I will make the changes proposed above.. Regards, Brin Zhang

[kolla] Calling Kolla-ansible in an ansible playbook
by J-P Methot 19 Jan '22

19 Jan '22

Hi, I've been trying to write an ansible-playbook to run some kolla tasks and I've been wondering if this is even possible? I have kolla running inside a virtual environment, so of course I'm running into issues having ansible running it. The current task looks like this: - name: run kolla-ansible upgrade on controllers command: "{{ venv }}/bin/kolla-ansible --limit {{ item }} -i multinode upgrade" loop: - control - monitoring - storage When run, it's complaining that ansible isn't installed in the current virtual environment. I was under the impression that specifying the whole path to my executable would have it automatically run in that virtual environment, but visibly this excludes access to ansible that's installed there. So, basically, is what I'm trying to do even possible? And if so, what would be the best way to do it? -- Jean-Philippe Méthot Senior Openstack system administrator Administrateur système Openstack sénior PlanetHoster inc.

[heat-tempest-plugin] call for help from plugin's maintainers

Hello, most of the tests of heat-tempest-plugin have started failing. We noticed that in interop [1], however, we reproduced that in the project's gates as well [2]. I suspect it might be an issue with the new gabbi package - there has been an update recently. Could you please have a look.

[Ironic][docs] Moving API Documentation closer to code
by Mahnoor Asghar 19 Jan '22

19 Jan '22

Dear all, I am an Outreachy intern, working with OpenStack Ironic on improving their API reference documentation mechanism. Currently, the API documentation is kept separately from the code (in the Ironic repository), which means it diverges from the code, and is difficult to maintain and manage as development progresses. It would be desirable to auto-document our REST API interactions and data structures in code along with the very classes they come from. This way, we can clearly understand the request, the response, and any other important interaction details from a single point of view inside the code. It will also be a lot easier to maintain. The current Ironic API documentation is being generated by Sphinx, using the os-api-ref extension. It would be a viable solution to move the documentation from the separate sub-directory to docstrings within the code files itself, and develop a Sphinx extension that provides essential features to generate the documentation from docstrings. More details about the proposed extension, and its features can be found on the Ironic Storyboard [1]. The wider OpenStack community may be facing similar problems maintaining their documentation, and it would be helpful to understand their perspective and concerns - with respect to using such an extension, their expectations from it, collaborating on it, and whether they have additional ideas about how we may bring API documentation closer to the code.

[ironic] [release] RFC: stop doing bugfix branches for Bifrost?
by Dmitry Tantsur 19 Jan '22

19 Jan '22

Hi team! Some time ago we introduced bugfix/X.Y branches [1] to some of the Ironic projects. This has worked pretty well and has been very helpful in ironic/inspector/IPA, but I have second thoughts about Bifrost. First, maintaining Bifrost branches is tedious enough because of how many distros we support and how quickly they change. Second, our recommended approach to using Bifrost is to git-clone master and work from it. I'm honestly unsure if the regular stable branches are used (outside of the Kolla CI), let alone bugfix branches. (I also doubt that Bifrost releases are very popular or even meaningful, but that's another topic.) As one of few people who is maintaining bugfix branches, I suggest we stop making them for Bifrost and switch Bifrost back to normal cycle-with-intermediaries. We can keep releasing 3x per cycle, just to have checkpoints, but only create "normal" stable branches. Thoughts?

[VGPU] Multiple VGPUs on one VM
by Jahson Babel 19 Jan '22

19 Jan '22

Hello folks, I've seen a thread on vGPUs on this mailing list lately and I was wondering if multiple vGPUs are supported on one VM on OpenStack. From the OpenStack's documentation this seems pretty clear that it's not. ( https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/admin/virtual-gpu.html) But on Nvidia's side multiple vGPUs should be able to be possible on specific Linux KVM version. (https://docs.nvidia.com/grid/latest/grid-vgpu-release-notes-red-hat-el-kvm/…) Only true for RHEL systems maybe. So which one of those pieces of information should I follow ? Presumably the OpenStack's side is the correct one but I would like to be sure. And does anyone has been able to attach multiples vgpus on one VM ? Another side question that I have in mind despite the fact that I can't see how it could possibly work. Is it possible to over-commit the vGPUs resources ? Via the placement API ? Thanks in advance. Kindly, Jahson Babel

Problem with ressource provider
by Marc-Antoine Godde (Student at CentraleSupelec) 18 Jan '22

18 Jan '22

Hello, In our cluster, we have 4 computes running and we have an issue with the number 4. We can't create VMs on it, we can't migrate VMs to or from that node. VMs are still perfectly working though. After a first diagnosis, it appears that there's a problem with the ressource provider. Node is declared in the db with: - name: os-compute-4, uuid: d12ea77b-d678-40ce-a813-d8094cabbbd8 Here are the ressource provider: - name: os-compute-4, uuid: a9dc2a56-5b2d-49b1-ac47-6d996d2d029a - name: os-compute-4.openstack.local, uuid: d12ea776-d678-40ce-a813-d8094cabbbd8 In our opinion, os-compute-4.openstack.local shouldn't be there at all. We want to destroy both of the ressource provider and recreate one. I must also precise that os-compute-4 ressource provider has 0 allocation and os-compute-4.openstack.local only 3 (there’s at least 50 VMs running on it…). Moreover, for these 3 allocations, the server uuid doesn't correspond to any existing VMs. Overall, none of the VMs has a ressource allocation on os-compute-4. We found the command nova-manage placement heal_allocations on the Internet but we can't find it in any container, maybe deprecated ? The cluster is running Ussuri installed with Openstack-ansible. If you have any suggestion, any help would be appreciated. Thanks. :) Best, Marc-Antoine Godde

[horizon] Missing button "create user" in dashboard
by Eugen Block 18 Jan '22

18 Jan '22

Hi *, I have a fresh Victoria installation where the "create user" button is missing in the dashboard. Creating users via CLI works fine, also when I go to https://controller/identity/users/create I see the dialog to create a new user. I see the same in an Ussuri installation. The clouds are deployed manually (we have our own Salt mechanism) on baremetal, the OS is openSUSE Leap 15.2. What I have tried so far is to apply the keystonev3_policy.json from [1], but without success. There are no other custom policies applied, most configs are on default. There are no obvious errors in the dashboard logs, and before I change too much I wanted to ask for your advice. Can anyone help me out? Please let me know if you need more information. Thanks in advance, Eugen [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/charm-openstack-dashboard/+bug/1775224

[nova] Instance Even Scheduling
by Ammad Syed 18 Jan '22

18 Jan '22

Hi, I have 5 compute nodes. When I deploy instances, the most of the instances automatically placed in node 1 or node 2. The other compute nodes remain empty or with one or two instances on it. enabled_filters = ComputeFilter,ComputeCapabilitiesFilter,ImagePropertiesFilter,ServerGroupAntiAffinityFilter,ServerGroupAffinityFilter,AggregateInstanceExtraSpecsFilter I have enabled the above filters. How to ensure that instances should be scheduled on compute nodes evenly on all compute hosts based on RAM only ? Like scheduler should schedule the instance on compute host which has a large amount of RAM available then other hosts. - Ammad
