[tc][mistral][release] Propose to deprecate Mistral
by Elõd Illés 06 Jan '23

06 Jan '23

Hi, Mistral projects are unfortunately not actively maintained and caused hard times in latest official series releases for release management team. Thus we discussed this and decided to propose to deprecate Mistral [1] to avoid broken releases and last minute debugging of gate issues (which usually fall to release management team), and remove mistral projects from 2023.1 Antelope release [2]. We would like to ask @TC to evaluate the situation and review our patches (deprecation [1] + removal from the official release [2]). Thanks in advance, Előd Illés irc: elodilles @ #openstack-release [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/866562 [2] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/865577

[kolla] Propose Bartosz Bezak for core reviewer
by Michał Nasiadka 06 Jan '23

06 Jan '23

Hello Koalas, I’d like to propose Bartosz Bezak as a core reviewer for Kolla, Kolla-Ansible, Kayobe and ansible-collection-kolla. Bartosz has recently went through release preparations and release process itself for all mentioned repositories, has been a great deal of help in meeting the cycle trailing projects deadline. In addition to that, he’s been the main author of Ubuntu Jammy and EL9 (Rocky Linux 9 to be precise) support in Kayobe for Zed release, as well as fixing various bugs amongst all four repositories. Bartosz also brings OVN knowledge, which will make the review process for those patches better (and improve our overall review velocity, which hasn’t been great recently). Kind regards, Michal Nasiadka

Nova libvirt/kvm sound device
by Zakhar Kirpichenko 06 Jan '23

06 Jan '23

Hi! I'd like to have the following configuration added to every guest on a specific host managed by Nova and libvirt/kvm: <sound model='bla'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x1b' function='0x0'/> </sound> When I add the device manually to instance xml, it works as intended but the instance configuration gets overwritten on instance stop/start or hard reboot via Nova. What is the currently supported / proper way to add a virtual sound device without having to modify libvirt or Nova code? I would appreciate any advice. Best regards, Zakhar

[designate] Implemeting PTR record restrictions
by Thomas Goirand 06 Jan '23

06 Jan '23

Hi, We implemented this scenario for our public cloud: https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/latest/admin/config-dns-int-ext-serv.htm… This is currently in production in beta-mode at Infomaniak's public cloud. We did that, because we want our customers to be able to set any domain name or PTR for the IPs they own. However, we discovered that there's no restriction on what zone customers can set. For example, if customer A owns the IP 203.0.113.9, customer B can do "openstack zone create 9.113.0.203.in-addr.arpa.", preventing customer A to set their PTR record. Is there currently a way to fix this? Or maybe a spec to implement the correct restrictions? What is the way to fix this problem in a public cloud env? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

[designate] New project: designate-tlds
by Thomas Goirand 05 Jan '23

05 Jan '23

Hi, We wrote this: https://salsa.debian.org/openstack-team/services/designate-tlds The interesting code bits are in: https://salsa.debian.org/openstack-team/services/designate-tlds/-/blob/debi… What it does is download the TLD list from https://publicsuffix.org/list/public_suffix_list.dat using requests (with an optional proxy), compare it to the list of TLDs in Designate, and fix the difference. It's by default setup in a cron every week. Basically, it's just apt-get install designate-tlds, configure keystone_authtoken in /etc/designate-tlds/designate-tlds.conf and set dry_run=false, and you're done! Note I also wrote a patch for puppet-designate [1] to support it. Moving forward I see 2 solutions: 1- we continue to maintain this separately from Designate 2- our code gets integrated into Designate itself. Designate team: are you interested for option 2? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo) [1] https://salsa.debian.org/openstack-team/puppet/puppet-module-designate/-/bl…

[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.

2023 PTGs + Virtual Team Signup
by Kendall Nelson 04 Jan '23

04 Jan '23

Hello Everyone! The next PTG on the calendar will be our usual virtual format and it will take place March 27 -31 right after the 2023.1 release. The project signup survey is already ready to go! If your team is interested in participating, sign them up here[1]! Registration is also open now[2] We have also heard many requests from the contributor community to bring back in person events and also heard that with global travel reduction, it would be better travel wise for the community at large to combine it with the OpenInfra Summit[3]. So, an in-person PTG will take place Wednesday and Thursday! June 14 -15th. OpenInfra Summit registration will be required to participate, and contributor pricing and travel support[4] will be available. We will also be planning another virtual PTG in the latter half of the year. The exact date is still being finalized. This will give you three opportunities to get your team together in 2023: two virtual and one in-person. - Virtual: March 27-31 - In- Person: June 14-15 collocated with the OpenInfra Summit - Virtual: TBD, but second half of the year As any project in our community, you are free to take advantage of all or some of the PTGs this coming year. I, for one, hope to see you and your project at as many as make sense for your team! To make sure we are as inclusive as possible I will continue to encourage team moderators to write summaries of their discussions to gather and promote after the events as well. Stay tuned for more info as we get closer, but the team signup survey[1] has opened for the first virtual PTG and is ready for you! -Kendall (diablo_rojo) [1] https://openinfrafoundation.formstack.com/forms/march2023_vptg_survey [2] https://openinfra-ptg.eventbrite.com [3]https://openinfra.dev/summit/vancouver-2023 [4] https://openinfrafoundation.formstack.com/forms/openinfra_tsp

[cloudkitty][horizon] change service name list in GUI
by Satish Patel 03 Jan '23

03 Jan '23

Folks, I am trying to configure rating for network data bytes in/out but what I have seen is that the ceilometer uses a different name than what cloudkitty GUI drop down-menu has. Ceilometer using "network.outgoing.bytes" and "network.incoming.bytes" Cloudkitty GUI drop-down list has "network.outgoing.bytes.rate" & "network.incoming.bytes.rate" I have tried to change it in cloudkitty metrics.yml file to match it with the ceilometer but the rating is not calculating until I change that in cloudkitty. Please advise how to change it in cloudkitty.

[ansible][ACO] - Contribution questions
by Gaël THEROND 31 Dec '22

31 Dec '22

Hi ansible collections openstack team! I finally had time to list all my issues met with the project, created few bug reports and even contributed to a patch today (minor, mainly copy/paste) however I’ve few questions regarding the CI process! Overall, what’s the rule with the CI code testing? I’ve read the contributing guide and had an eye on previous patches to see how it’s used but I’m having a hard time to find a real unified method. For instance, it seems that some module miss CI tasks (such as compute_service_info) or did I missed something? Thanks a lot for all the good job!
