Fwd: DPDK+OVS with OpenStack
by Mark Wittling 23 Apr '25

23 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 22 Apr '25

22 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

Kolla Ansible on Ubuntu 20.04 - cloud-init & other network issues
by Tobias McNulty 10 Oct '24

10 Oct '24

Hi, I'm attempting to use Kolla Ansible 14.6.0 to deploy OpenStack Yoga on a small 3-node Ubuntu 20.04 cluster. The nodes have 128 GB RAM each, dual Xeon processors, and dual 10G Intel NICs. The NICs are connected to access ports on a 10G switch with separate VLANs for the local and external networks. All the playbooks run cleanly, but cloud-init is failing in the Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 VMs I attempt to boot. The VM images are unmodified from https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/, and cloud-init works fine if I mount a second volume with user-data. The error is a timeout attempting to reach 169.254.169.254. This occurs both when booting a VM in an internal routed network and directly in an external network. I tried various neutron plugin agents (ovn, linuxbridge, and openvswitch both with and without firewall_driver = openvswitch <https://docs.openstack.org/kolla-ansible/latest/reference/networking/neutro…>) first with a clean install of the entire OS each time, all with the same result. Running tcpdump looking for 169.254.169.254 shows nothing. As a possible clue, the virtual NICs are unable to pass any traffic (e.g., to reach an external DHCP server) unless I completely disable port security on the interface (even if the associated security group is wide open). But disabling port security does not fix cloud-init (not to mention I don't really want to disable port security). Are there any additional requirements related to deploying OpenStack with Kolla on Ubuntu 20.04? This is a fairly vanilla configuration using the multinode inventory as a starting point. I tried to follow the Quick Start <https://docs.openstack.org/kolla-ansible/yoga/user/quickstart.html> as closely as possible; the only material difference I see is that I'm using the same 3 nodes for control + compute. I am using MAAS so it's easy to get a clean OS install on all three nodes ahead of each attempt. I plan to try again with the standard (non-HWE) kernel just in case, but otherwise I am running out of ideas. In case of any additional clues, here are my globals.yml and inventory file, along with the playbook I'm using to configure the network, images, VMs, etc., after bootstrapping the cluster: https://gist.github.com/tobiasmcnulty/7dbbdbc67abc08cbb013bf5983852ed6 Thank you in advance for any advice! Cheers, Tobias

[puppet] Proposing core team clean up
by Takashi Kajinami 23 Aug '23

23 Aug '23

Hello, I went through the current core reviewers and found out that the current list includes some people no longer working in the OpenStack community. I'd like to propose removing the following persons from the core reviewer team as we haven't seen these people making any activity in the community recently. * Pradeep Kilambi - puppet-aodh, puppet-ceilometer, puppet-gnocchi, puppet-panko * Richard Megginson - puppet-keystone * Denis Egorenko - puppet-murano * Serg Melikyan - puppet-murano * Sergey Kolekonov - puppet-neutron * David Moreau Simard - puppet-openstack-integration * Yu xingchao - all modules Also, I confirmed that Wes Hayutin is no longer working for OpenStack and he agreed to retire from the core reviewer position. Thus I'll remove him as well. I'll be open for any feedback for one week to hear any thoughts/feedback about this removal. I'd like to take this moment to thank all people for their past work. We always welcome them back if they resume their work in this project. Thank you, Takashi KAJINAMI

[ironic][stable] Proposing EOL of ironic project branches older than Wallaby
by Jay Faulkner 02 Jun '23

02 Jun '23

Hi all, Ironic has a large amount of stable branches still in EM. We need to take action to ensure those branches are either retired or have CI repaired to the point of being usable. Specifically, I'm looking at these branches across all Ironic projects: - stable/queens - stable/rocky - stable/stein - stable/train - stable/ussuri - stable/victoria In lieu of any volunteers to maintain the CI, my recommendation for all the branches listed above is that they be marked EOL. If someone wants to volunteer to maintain CI for those branches, they can propose one of the below paths be taken instead: 1 - Someone volunteers to maintain these branches, and also report the status of CI of these older branches periodically on the Ironic whiteboard and in Ironic meetings. If you feel strongly that one of these branches needs to continue to be in service; volunteering in this way is how to save them. 2 - We seriously reduce CI. Basically removing all tempest tests to ensure that CI remains reliable and able to merge emergency or security fixes when needed. In some cases; this still requires CI fixes as some older inspector branches are failing *installing packages* in unit tests. I would still like, in this case, that someone volunteers to ensure the minimalist CI remains happy. My intention is to let this message serve as notice and a waiting period; and if I've not heard any response here or in Monday's Ironic meeting (in 6 days), I will begin taking action on retiring these branches. This is simply a start; other branches (including bugfix branches) are also in bad shape in CI, but getting these retired will significantly reduce the surface area of projects and branches to evaluate. I know it's painful to drop support for these branches; but we've provided good EM support for these branches for a long time and by pruning them away, we'll be able to save time to dedicate to other items. Thanks, Jay Faulkner

[charms] Team Delegation proposal
by Chris MacNaughton 08 Feb '23

08 Feb '23

Hello All, <tl;dr> I would like to propose some new ACLs in Gerrit for the openstack-charms project: - openstack-core-charms - ceph-charms - network-charms - stable-maintenance </tl;dr> With an increasing focus split among the openstack-charmers team, I'm observing that people are focused on more specific subsets of the charms, and would like to propose that new ACLs are created to allow us to recognize that officially. I've chosen the breakdown above as it aligns neatly with where the focus lines are at this point, letting developers work on their specific focus areas. This proposal would not reduce permissions for anybody who is currently a core on the openstack-charms project and, in fact, future subteam core members could aspire to full openstack-charmers core as well. Ideally, this approach will let us escalate developers to "core" developers for the subteam(s) where they have demonstrated the expertise we expect in a core-charmer. It also allows a more gradual escalation to being a core in the openstack-charms project, making it a progression rather than a single destination. As a related addition, I'm appending to this proposal the creation of a stable-maintenance ACL which would allow members to manage backports without a full core-charmer grant. --- Chris MacNaughton

[cinder][drivers] third-party CI for os-brick changes
by Brian Rosmaita 04 Jan '23

04 Jan '23

To all third-party CI maintainers, As you are aware, cinder third-party CI systems are required to run on all cinder changes. However, the os-brick library used in cinder CI testing is the latest appropriate *released* version of os-brick. Thus, it is possible for changes to be happening in os-brick development that might impact the functionality of your driver. If you aren't testing os-brick changes, you won't find out about these until *after* the next os-brick release, which is bad news all around. Therefore, at last week's cinder midcycle [0], the cinder project team agreed to require that cinder third-party CI systems run on all os-brick changes in addition to all cinder changes. This is a nice-to-have for the current (Zed) development cycle, but will be required in order for a driver to be considered 'supported' in the 2023.1 (Antelope) release [1]. If you have comments or concerns about this policy, please reply on the list to this email or put an item on the agenda [2] for the cinder weekly meeting.

[neutron][devstack][qa] Dropping lib/neutron module
by Slawek Kaplonski 12 Dec '22

12 Dec '22

Hi, As You maybe know (or not as this was very long time ago) there are 2 modules to deploy Neutron in devstack: * old one called lib/neutron-legacy * new one called lib/neutron The problem is that new module lib/neutron was really never finished and used widely and still everyone is using (and should use) old one lib/neutron-legacy. We discussed that few times during PTGs and we finally decided to drop "new" module lib/neutron and have then rename old "lib/neutron-legacy" to be "lib/neutron" again. Decision was made because old module works fine and do its job, and as there is nobody who would like to finish really new module. Also having 2 modules from which "legacy" one is the only one which really works can be confusing and we want to avoid that confusion. So I proposed patches [1] and [2] to drop this unfinished module. I also proposed DNM patches for Neutron [3] and Tempest [4] to test that all jobs will work fine. But if You are maybe relaying on the Neutron modules from Devstack, please propose some test patch in Your project too and check if everything works fine for You. In patch [2] I didn't really removed "lib/neutron-legacy" yet because there are some projects which are sourcing that file in their devstack module. As [1] and [2] will be merged I will be proposing patches to change that for those projects but any help with that is welcome :) [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack/+/865014 [2] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack/+/865015 [3] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/neutron/+/865822 [4] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/tempest/+/865821 -- Slawek Kaplonski Principal Software Engineer Red Hat

[ironic][release] Bugfix branch status and cleanup w/r/t zuul-config-errors
by Jay Faulkner 07 Dec '22

07 Dec '22

Hey all, I've been looking into the various zuul config errors showing up for Ironic-program branches. Almost all of our old bugfix branches are in the list. Additionally, not properly retiring the bugfix branches leads to an ever-growing list of branches which makes it a lot more difficult, for contributors and operators alike, to tell which ones are currently supported. I've put together a document describing the situation as it is now, and my proposal: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/IronicBugfixBranchCleanup Essentially, I think we need to: - identify bugfix branches to cleanup (I've done this in the above etherpad, but some of the ) - clean them up (the next step) - update Ironic policy to set a regular cadence for when to retire bugfix branches, and encode the process for doing so This means there are two overall questions to answer in this email: 1) Mechanically, what's the process for doing this? I don't believe the existing release tooling will be useful for this, but I'm not 100% sure. I've pulled (in the above etherpad and a local spreadsheet) the last SHA for each branch; so we should be able to EOL these branches similarly to how we EOL stable branches; except manually instead of with tooling. Who is going to do this work? (I'd prefer releases team continue to hold the keys to do this; but I understand if you don't want to take on this manual work). 2) What's the pattern for Ironic to adopt regarding these branches? We just need to write down the expected lifecycle and enforce it -- so we prevent being this deep into "branch debt" in the future. What do folks think? - Jay Faulkner

[heat][release] Proposing to EOL Rocky and Stein
by Brendan Shephard 07 Dec '22

07 Dec '22

Hi, We were discussing some of the older branches we have and thought it was about time we start moving some of them to EOL. Initially, I would like to move Rocky and Stein to EOL and have done so here: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/866135 We would also like to move Train to EOL as well, pending a few changes being merged. I wanted to reach out and ensure there is no objections here to any of these branches being EOL’d. Feel free to voice any concerns, otherwise I will move forward with that next week. Cheers, Brendan Shephard Senior Software Engineer Red Hat Australia

[nova][placement][tempest] Hold your rechecks
by Sylvain Bauza 05 Dec '22

Sorry folks, that's kind of an email I hate writing but let's be honest : our gate is busted. Until we figure out a correct path for resolution, I hereby ask you to *NOT* recheck in order to not spill our precious CI resources for tests that are certain to fail. Long story story, there are currently two problems : #1 https://launchpad.net/bugs/1940425 nova-ovs-hybrid-plug and nova-next jobs 100% fail due to a port remaining in down state. #2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1960346 nova-lvm job 100% fails due to a volume detach failure probably due to QEMU #1 is currently investigated by the Neutron team meanwhile a patch [1] has been proposed against Zuul to skip the failing tests. Unfortunately, this patch [1] is unable to merge due to #2. #2 has a Tempest patch that's being worked on [2] but the current state of this patch is WIP. We somehow need to have an agreement on the way forward during this afternoon (UTC) to identify whether we can reasonably progress on [2] or skip the failing tests on nova-lvm. Again, sorry about the bad news and I'll keep you informed. -Sylvain [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/865658/ [2] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/tempest/+/842240

[kolla-ansible][Yoga][Magnum] How to delete a cluster containing errors
by wodel youchi 30 Nov '22

30 Nov '22

Hi, I have a magnum cluster stack which contains errors in its constituents, some of the VMs (minions) that belong to that cluster do longer exist. When I try to delete the stack it fails, and I get DELETE aborted (Task delete from ResourceGroup "kube_minions" [fddb3056-9b00-4665-b0d6-c3d3f176814b] Stack "testcluter01-puf45b6dxmrn" [d10af7f2-6ecd-442b-b1f9-140b79e58d13] Timed out) Is there a way to force the deletion to proceed even with those errors?

[neutron][releases] Proposing to EOL Train networking-ovn
by Rodolfo Alonso Hernandez 30 Nov '22

30 Nov '22

Hello: The transition of this branch to EM was done 1,5 years ago [1]. During this time the maintenance of Train networking-ovn has continued. However, due to the lack of time and personal resources, we can't properly maintain it. That leads to problems like [1]. The ML2/OVN driver was successfully merged in the Neutron repository in Ussury. We continue the development and improvement of this ML2 mechanism driver. A patch to mark this branch as EOL will be pushed in two weeks. If you have any inconvenience, please let me know in this mail chain or in IRC (ralonsoh, #openstack-neutron channel). You can also contact any Neutron core reviewer in the IRC channel. Regards. [1]https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/790760 [2]https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1997262

Re: Unable to access Internet from an instance and accessing instance using floating-point IPs from external network
by Eugen Block 30 Nov '22

So you did modify the default security-group, ports 8000 and 8080 are not open by default. Anyway, can you please clarify what doesn't work exactly? Does the instance have an IP in the public network but the router is not pingeable (but that is not necessarily an issue) and you can't access it via which protocols? Does SSH work? Is the access blocked by a http_proxy?

[Kolla-ansible][Neutron] VMs not getting public IPs if attached directly to public subnet
by wodel youchi 30 Nov '22

30 Nov '22

Hi, We have an HCI deployment with 3 controllers and 9 compute/storage nodes. Two of the controllers have the role of neutron server. The platform uses two bonded interfaces : bond1 : is used for : *neutron_external_interface* bond0 : with many vlans on top of it to segregate the rest of the networks : - bond0 : vlan natif used for nodes deployment (dhcp, tftp, pxeboot) - bond0.10 : vlan 10 ceph public - bond0.20 : vlan 20 ceph cluster - bond0.30 : vlan 30 API - bond0.40 : vlan 40 tunnel * - bond0.50 : vlan 50 Public network, here are the public IPs of the 03 controllers, the public horizon VIP interface is created here.* In our configuration we have *"enable_neutron_provider_networks = yes"*, which means that an instance can have a public IP directly without using a virtual-router + NAT. But it does not work. If we create and instance with a private network, then we attach to it a floating IP, the VM is reachable from the Internet, but if we attach the VM directly to the public network, it does not get an IP address from the public pool, we think it's a dhcp problem but we could not find the source, we think it's the *Vlan part.* The controllers are in Vlan 50, if we create a virtual-router it gets its public IP without any problem. But if we are not mistaken, if an instance is plugged directly into the public network, it uses bond1 to send its dhcp requests, but since this interface is not in vlan 50, the requests don't get to the controllers, is this right? If yes, is there a solution? can we use bond1.50 as an interface for kolla's *neutron_external_interface * instead? Regards.

Hi, After discussions with Douglas, Chandan and Ronelle Landy I would like to suggest adding Douglas and Chandan to the OVB core team. The repository have very little activity, i.e there is not a lot of review history to base the decision on. I did work with both individuals when onboarding new clouds to run TripleO CI jobs utilizing OVB, they have a good understanding of how the thing works. If there are no objections, I will add them to them as core reviewers next week. Regards, Harald

[neutron] neutron-db-manage multiple heads
by Eugen Block 29 Nov '22

29 Nov '22

Hi *, I'd like to ask you for advice on how to clean up my neutron db. At some point (which I don't know exactly, probably train) my neutron database got inconsistent, apparently one of the upgrades did not go as planned. The interesting thing is that the database still works, I just upgraded from ussuri to victoria where that issue popped up again during 'neutron-db-manage upgrade --expand', I'll add the information at the end of this email. Apparently, I have multiple heads, and one of them is from train, it seems as if I never ran --contract (or it failed and I didn't notice). Just some additional information what I did with this database: this cloud started out as a test environment with a single control node and then became a production environment. About two and a half years ago we decided to reinstall this cloud with version ussuri and import the databases. I had a virtual machine in which I upgraded the database dump from production to the latest versions at that time. That all worked quite well, I only didn't notice that something was missing. Now that I finished the U --> V upgrade I want to fix this inconsistency, I just have no idea how to do it. As I'm not sure how all the neutron-db-manage commands work exactly I'd like to ask for some guidance. For example, could the "stamp" command possibly help? Or how else can I get rid of the train head and/or how to get the train revision to "contract" so I can finish the upgrade and contract the victoria revision? I can paste the whole neutron-db history if necessary (neutron-db-manage history), please let me know what information would be required to get to the bottom of this. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I would check that DHCP is enabled on the internal subnet and that it's providing everything necessary for an internet connection to the instances. Tobias

[all] Cargo Culted Tox install_command overrides
by Clark Boylan 29 Nov '22

29 Nov '22

A subset of tempest jobs recently began to exhibit some interesting behavior. The tox installation was finding the global pip installation instead of pip in the tox virtualenv which led to an attempt to install packages globally which failed. Eventually, I discovered the reason this happened was that virtualenv created a broken venv installation for tox, but this was made far more confusing by two tox settings in tempest's tox.ini: install_command and allowlist_externals. Tempest had overridden install_command to ` pip install {opts} {packages}` and set allowlist_externals to `*`. This allowed tox to find and use global pip without complaint. Tempest has since cleaned these up with this change [0], which should result in nicer error messages in the future if we have similar problems. I have noticed that many projects have cargo culted this configuration, particularly for install_command [1]. The default install_command for tox is `python -m pip install {opts} {packages}` [2]. This is almost equivalent to our overrides except that it uses pip as a module. This is important in this case because we don't install python2 regularly which means there is no `python` command except for in the created virtualenv where `python` == `python3`. The resulting behavior difference here would have been helpful to have when debugging the underlying issue in tempest. All that to say, I would suggest that those who have install_command set similarly to tempest remove this unnecessary configuration. Separately, setting allowlist_externals to `*` allows all global commands to run without complaint or an indication they are being used. Far fewer projects have this problem though [3]. Those that do should consider updating their config to explicitly list the commands they actually need from outside the virtualenv. Neither of these changes is critical, but I wanted people to be aware of this as we seem to have copied it all over the place.

[neutron] Switching the ML2 driver in-place from linuxbridge to OVN for an existing Cloud
by Christian Rohmann 26 Nov '22

26 Nov '22

Hello openstack-discuss and neutron experts, I'd like to ask for your input and discussion on the idea of changing the ML2 driver for an existing cloud, read: changing a tire while still riding the bike. I actually like to find out if it's feasible to switch from the trusted Linuxbridge driver to the more modern SDN stack of OVN - in place. With all existing user networks, subnets, security groups and (running) instances in the database already. And while I know there a push of migrating from OVS to OVN and a clear migration path documented (https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/latest/ovn/migration.html) but they are much more similar in their data plane. And to get this out of the way: I am not asking to do be able to do this without downtime, interruptions, migrations or any active orchestration of the process. I just want to know all the possible options apart from setting up a new cloud and asking folks to migrate all of their things over... 1) Are the data models of the user managed resources abstract (enough) from the ML2 used? So would the composition of a router, a network, some subnets, a few security group and a few instances in a project just result in a different instantiation of packet handling components, but be otherwise transparent to the user? 2) What could be possible migration strategies? While it might be a little early to think about the actual migration steps. But just to consider more than a full cloud shutdown following a cold start with modified neutron config then using the OVN ML2. I know there is more than just the network and getting a virtual layer 2 network. There are DHCP, DNS and the metadata service and last but not least the gateway / router and the security groups. But if using VXLAN for OVN (as Linuxbridge uses currently) could the shift from one implementation to the other potentially be done node by node? Or project by project by changing the network agents over to nodes already running OVN? If not, is there any other hot cut-over approach that would avoid having to shutdown all the instances, but only cause them some network downtime (until the next DHCP renew or similar?) Has anybody ever done something similar or heard about this being done anywhere? Thanks for your time and input, Christian

[all][stable][ptl] Propose to EOL Queens series
by Elõd Illés 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

Hi, As more and more teams decide about moving their Queens branches to End of Life, it looks like the time has come to transition the complete Queens stable release for every project. The reasons behind this are the following things: - gates are mostly broken - minimal number of bugfix backports are pushed to these branches - gate job definitions are still using the old, legacy zuul syntax - gate jobs are based on Ubuntu Xenial, which is also beyond its public maintenance window date and hard to maintain - lack of reviews / reviewers on this branch Based on the above, if no objection comes from teams, then I'll start the process of EOL'ing Queens stable series. Please let the community know what you think, or indicate if any of the projects' stable/queens branch should be kept open in Extended Maintenance. Thanks, Előd Illés irc: elodilles @ #openstack-stable / #openstack-release

[openstackclient] Consistency between OSC commands >>> consistency with legacy clients
by Stephen Finucane 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

👋 tl;dr: $subject I reviewed a patch against openstackclient (OSC) today [1] and left a rather lengthy comment that I thought worthy of bringing up to a wider audience. The patch itself doesn't matter so much as what is was trying to achieve, namely modifying an existing OSC command to better match the structure of the equivalent legacy client command. The review provides more detail than I do here but the tl;dr: is that this is a big no-no and OSC will and must maintain consistency between OSC commands over consistency with legacy clients. As I noted in the review, consistency is one of the biggest advantages of OSC over the legacy clients: if you know the name of the resource type you wish to work with, you can pretty accurately guess the command and its structure. This is a thing that operators have consistently said they love about OSC and its one of the key reasons we're trying to get every command to provide full current API implementations in OSC (and SDK). Now I get that the way some of these consistent commands have been implemented has been the cause of contention in the past. I don't imagine it remains any less contentious today. However, these patterns are well-understood, well-known patterns that have for the most part worked just fine for close to a decade now. The kind of patterns I'm thinking about include: * The command to create a new resource should always take the format '<resource> create <human-readable identifer> * The command to modify some property of a resource should always take the format '<resource> set --property=value <name-or-identifier>' * The command to list, fetch or delete resources should always take the format '<resource> list', '<resource> get <name-or-identifier>', and '<resource> delete <name-or-identifier>', respectively. * Boolean options should always take the form of flags with an alternate negative option like '--flag' and '--no-flag', rather than '-- flag=<true|false>' * And a couple of other things that we tend to highlight in reviews. We want to preserve this behavior, lest OSC lose this huge USP and devolve into a muddle mess of different ideas and various individuals'/teams' preferences. I'm more than happy to discuss and debate this stuff with anyone who's interested and we'll continue reviewing each patch on its merit and providing exceptions to these rules where they make sense, but it will remain an ongoing goal and it's something we'd like people to consider when working on OSC itself or any of its plugins. I will now get off my pedestal/ivory tower 🗼 Thanks! Stephen PS: I'm talking here about the command themselves, not their implementations. We do somethings extra in OSC that are user helpful, like allowing users to identify resources by their name in addition to by their UUIDs. We also currently do things that no so user helpful, like crashing and burning if the name lookups fail (I'm thinking about the various Glance-related commands that error out if a project name/ID is passed to a command and the user can't look up that project). These are things we're more than willing to fix and will happily accept patches for :) [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/python-openstackclient/+/865377

[tacker] Tacker's Legacy API deprecation
by Ayumu Ueha (Fujitsu) 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

Hi Tacker users, Tacker team is going to mark the Tacker's Legacy APIs [1] (excluding VIM feature) to "deprecated" in Antelope cycle. Please see etherpad [2] about list of target APIs. We follow deprecation guideline [3] of OpenStack, and need to know how many users use Tacker's Legacy API. Please let me know if anyone still uses the Legacy API that will be marked "deprecated" via Rest-API or CLI(python-tackerclient) or GUI(tacker-horizon). If no one is using it, we will obsolete it in C cycle as planned. Thanks. [1] https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/nfv-orchestration/v1/legacy.html [2] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/tacker-legacy-deprecation [3] https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/deprecation.html#guidelines Best Regards, Ueha

Hello Neutrinos: We have recently found some zuul errors related to networking-midonet. In order to fix them, we have pushed [1]. However, the CI status of this project is not in good shape. This mail is a kind request for maintainers of this project. We need to ensure that the stable branches are still accepting patches and the CI jobs are passing. Thank you in advance.

[CloudKitty] use of Monasca
by Rafael Weingärtner 24 Nov '22

24 Nov '22

Hello guys, As discussed in the PTG [1], in October, we wanted to check with the community if there are people using CloudKitty with Monasca. This discussion was brought up during the PTG that Kolla-ansible is deprecating support to Monasca, and we wanted to check if others are using CloudKitty with Monasca. This integration is not being actively tested and maintained; therefore, we are considering the issue of a deprecation notice and further removal of the integration. What do you guys think? Are there people using CloudKitty with Monasca? [1] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/oct2022-ptg-cloudkitty -- Rafael Weingärtner
