[election][nova] Sylvain to throw his hat into the Nova PTL ring again
by Sylvain Bauza 11 Feb '22

11 Feb '22

Hello again Nova (and Placement) fellows, This went fast, but it's time for me to run again for the Nova PTL position, this time for the Zen/Zombie/Zeta [1] release cycle, after having been the PTL for the Yoga cycle. Just a quick look at this current cycle. First, it was quick but : - we added a new way to help contributors to say they are reviewing some change - we now have a new nova-core - we have around 25 accepted feature requests and 15 of them are already reviewed. What we had't yet time to discuss and what I'd like us to start to look are : - given some operators want to upgrade at least every year, we should try to start seeing how to support two-cycle-older computes - sometimes we want to do things that we'd like but that we don't have time for. Some of them are actually simple to implement. Maybe then we should organize back ways to share ideas to new contributors and provide them mentoring efforts (eg. with Outreachy or any engineering interns wanting to work on OpenStack and Nova in particular) As you know, I'm also open to any idea. I'm not a leader, I'm just a herder. Thanks, -Sylvain [1] Pick any Z name you want given we don't know yet the result.

[cinder][nova][ironic][glance][downstream distro] raising requirements minima in yoga os-brick
by Brian Rosmaita 11 Feb '22

11 Feb '22

Hello os-brick consumers, I have a patch up raising the minima in {test-}requirements.txt for the yoga os-brick release. I seem to remember that when I did this without warning last cycle, it caused a few issues (I think mostly a cascade of updates at an inconvenient time for people still maintaining lower-constraints.txt; probably nothing more serious because we're all testing in the gates with the latest versions allowed by upper-constraints anyway). The commit message on the patch explains what changes are made (and some that aren't): https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-brick/+/828802 Please respond before 18:00 UTC on Monday 14 Feb if you see any issues. (Sorry this email is a bit late, but that's how I roll.) cheers, brian

[election][trove][ptl] PTL non-candidacy
by Lingxian Kong 11 Feb '22

11 Feb '22

Hi all, I'm writing this email to let you know that I'm not going to run for Trove PTL for Z dev cycle. I've been serving Trove PTL since Train, trying the best to revive the project back to production ready, lots of changes have been made since then, and also helped my former employer successfully deploy Trove in production and pass the security review conducted by the 3rd party security company. However, I changed my job recently and shifted the focus, can't guarantee the contribution for this open source project, hopefully someone could pick that up and drive the project. I'm willing to provide help if needed. --- Lingxian Kong

[kolla][ceilometer][gnocchi] Error in ceilometer_central service
by Mahendra Paipuri 10 Feb '22

10 Feb '22

Hello, I am playing around Openstack using kolla-ansible deployment on a single node. I am facing the same issue as here -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible/+bug/1920095. I see that there is an PR here -> https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/kolla-ansible/+/781595 but has not been merged. Is it still a bug or am I missing something in kolla configuration? Cheers Mahendra

[TaskFlow]
by 黄一心 10 Feb '22

10 Feb '22

Hi, In our project, the taskflow is used to back up and restore data. After the task is submitted or started to run, the task may be suspended. However, the program process still exists. It seems that the thread for executing the task is missing. After the program process is restarted, the task can be resumed. Can you give us some advice. Thank you.

[openstacksdk] create object (eg. snapshot) on behalf of user as admin
by Benedikt Trefzer 10 Feb '22

10 Feb '22

Hi list I like to connect as an amin user to an openstack cloud and create a snapshot of a volume in the same project as the volume exists. I use the openstacksdk to achive this in python. So far I can connect as admin and create the snapshot but the snapshot is in the admins project, not in the project of the volume. Code so far: from openstack import connect import openstack.config conn=connect() conn.volume.create_snapshot(name='test', description='testing', volume='volumeIDinANYproject') I tried to use conn.connect_as_project('ProjectID') but was not successfull. Please direct me in the correct direction to achive this ! Any help appreciated. Greeting Benedikt

[Skyline] Project mascot to review
by James Cole 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

Greetings everyone, I’m James, a designer with the OpenInfra Foundation. We have a been working on a new project mascot for Skyline and wanted to share a couple of options with you. The reference we were provided alluded to a nine-color-deer, so we created a deer illustration in the style of the other project mascots. The two options are essentially the same, but one is white with spots and the other is yellow with spots. Let me know if you like one or the other—or if we’re totally off on the theme—and we will add the text to the logo and finalize the assets. There is a PDF attached to this message or you can view the document by visiting this link <https://www.dropbox.com/s/d2ikaphzhml7tqb/20220120%20Mascots%20Project.pdf?…>. Thank you! -James

[ironic] kickstart/iso configuration
by Carol Bouchard 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

Ironic folks: I've set-up bifrost which is spawning two VMs to test with. I'm using the xena branch for both bifrost and ironic. Bifrost sets these VMs up as whole-disk-images. I've undeployed one VM and trying to deploy the same VM by using the default kickstart file and a RHEL7 ISO file but I'm not having any success. Could you suggest what configuration changes are expected in this case to get this to work? What would you expect deploy-interface and instance-info to look like? BTW And I've applied portions (changes to cache_ramdisk_kernel() only) of the patch for https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/ironic/+/827924. Carol

[Update Process]
by Joshua Crawford 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

Hi, I have been given the task of updating our openstack/swift setup. Currently, we are on openstack 2.3.1 with python-swiftclient 3.0.0 on Ubuntu 16.04. My plan is to upgrade Ubuntu to 18.04 and then to 20.04. Then focus on updating openstack and swift. I do not have any previous experience with openstack or swift, but from what I have read so far, our current version is not supported on anything newer than Ubuntu 16.04. Should I revise my plan and look at updating openstack/swift first, or is my plan to update Ubuntu first a good path forward. Thank you, joshua.

[election][Neutron]PTL candidacy for Z
by Lajos Katona 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

Hello Openstack Community, I write to submit my candidacy for the Neutron PTL position during the Z cycle. I have been PTL for the Yoga cycle, and I would like to serve the community for another cycle. During the last few cycles the team faced a lot of challenges, like: * Lack of review capacity, which on the other hand means that we have a lot to review, and that is good. * Channel in developers from new companies. * Keep Neutron stable while at the same time keep the speed of feature development. * CI instabilities. * Keep coverage and decrease the load Neutron jobs cause in the infra. The team tried to address these, so we have biweekly video meeting for CI issues (on the other week we kept the IRC for CI meeting), we increased the size of the drivers team, we included back some retired stadium project with new developers who would like to maintain them, or worked actively to decrease the amount of jobs we execute for each commit. As a summary I would like to continue with a focus on these items to keep Networking in Openstack stable and inclusive. Thank you for your time and consideration. Lajos Katona (lajoskatona)

[kolla] [horizon] Custom logos (WAS: [Openstack-operators] Horizon Custom Logos (Queens, 13.0.1))
by Gregory Orange 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

We have been using Ubuntu VMs for the control plane until now, so it was a simple matter of inserting our logo-splash.svg and logo.svg into /var/lib/openstack-dashboard/static/dashboard/img/ and then restarting services. Now we're switching to Kolla, and the relevant path isn't mounted as is the case with the likes of /etc/kolla/horizon and /var/log/kolla. We don't (yet?) build our own container images, so I'm wondering what next. Did anyone get any further with this?

Hi, I currently have a patch up for openstack/requirements [0] bumping the version of the pyroute2 library from 0.5.14 to 0.6.5 as the older version have a memory leak issue [1] in the NDB module which can cause the service using the library to be killed by the OOM killer because of an out-of-memory condition. This email was a suggestion by a core reviewer to raise awareness from the broader community to this change/issue. Please if you have any concerning about this version bump let us know here on in the patch itself [0] [0] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/requirements/+/828091 [1] https://github.com/svinota/pyroute2/issues/789 Cheers, Lucas

[ironic]Anaconda deploy interface config
by Carol Bouchard 08 Feb '22

08 Feb '22

Ironic folks: I'm trying to spawn a RHEL7 image using a kickstart file and having issues with stage2 file. First I used bifrost to initially setup a couple of VMs. (There is no openstack/glance). I'm now using one of those VMs to boot up with RHEL7. I changed the VM config with the following: *| deploy_interface | anaconda* * | instance_info | {'kernel': 'http://myip:8080/RHEL7/vmlinuz <http://myip:8080/RHEL7/vmlinuz>', 'ramdisk': 'http://myip:8080/RHEL7/initrd.img <http://myip:8080/RHEL7/initrd.img>', 'image_source': 'http://myip:8080/RHEL7/initrd.img <http://myip:8080/RHEL7/initrd.img>', 'stage2': 'http://myip:8080/RHEL7/squashfs.img <http://myip:8080/RHEL7/squashfs.img>', 'ks_cfg': 'http://myip:8080/RHEL7/ks.cfg.template <http://myip:8080/RHEL7/ks.cfg.template>', 'ks_template': 'http://myip:8080/RHEL7/ks.cfg.template <http://myip:8080/RHEL7/ks.cfg.template>'}* ironic.conf changes I made are as follows: *enabled_deploy_interfaces = direct,ramdisk,anaconda* *[anaconda]default_ks_template = file:///etc/ironic/ks.cfg.template* The error I'm getting is as follows: *$ baremetal node show testvm1 --field last_error* *| last_error | Deploy step deploy.deploy failed with IsADirectoryError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/httpboot/4e41df61-84b1-5856-bfb6-6b5f2cd3dd11/LiveOS/squashfs.img'.* Tail end of traceback is as follows: * ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils File "/opt/stack/bifrost/lib64/python3.9/site-packages/ironic/common/pxe_utils.py", line 1245, in cache_ramdisk_kernel ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils deploy_utils.fetch_images(ctx, TFTPImageCache(), list(t_pxe_info.values()), ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils File "/opt/stack/bifrost/lib64/python3.9/site-packages/ironic/drivers/modules/deploy_utils.py", line 240, in fetch_images ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils cache.fetch_image(href, path, ctx=ctx, force_raw=force_raw) ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils File "/opt/stack/bifrost/lib64/python3.9/site-packages/ironic/drivers/modules/image_cache.py", line 120, in fetch_image ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils dest_up_to_date = _delete_dest_path_if_stale(master_path, ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils File "/opt/stack/bifrost/lib64/python3.9/site-packages/ironic/drivers/modules/image_cache.py", line 460, in _delete_dest_path_if_stale ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils os.unlink(dest_path) ironic-conductor[]: ERROR ironic.conductor.utils IsADirectoryError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/httpboot/4e41df61-84b1-5856-bfb6-6b5f2cd3dd11/LiveOS/squashfs.img'* Please advise.

[election][cinder] PTL Candidacy for Z
by Rajat Dhasmana 08 Feb '22

08 Feb '22

Hi All, I would like to announce my candidacy for PTL of the Cinder project for the Z cycle. Since this is the first time I'm proposing my candidacy, I would like to briefly introduce myself. I started contributing to OpenStack back in the Queens release (although not very actively) and started focusing on the Cinder project in the Rocky release. I became a core reviewer in Cinder in the mid of the Stein release and since then I've been actively contributing to the Cinder project in terms of features, bug fixes, reviews etc. I'm also a part of Cinder's core security group and a stable core and currently serving as release liaison for Cinder for the past 3 releases. Coming to the focus for the Z release, Cinder receives an abundance of commits every cycle in terms of new drivers, driver features, core cinder features, bug fixes, improvements etc and we've always faced a shortage in reviews. It is not due to fewer people working actively but more of a priority issue in their respective roles. I would like to encourage contributors to discuss with their managers about the importance of code review in opensource and how it is helpful for the community and the individuals as well. Apart from that, I would like to revisit the security issues backlog since that hasn't been looked upon in quite some time and if we encounter something that needs attention, we can also hold core security meetings from time to time to address the issues. We are also getting active driver contributions every cycle which is a good thing, but sadly the driver implementation patches seem to have a lot of mistakes which are well documented in the driver contribution docs and something I would like to highlight in the Z PTG (as most of the vendors join it and propose their driver ideas). Again, the documentation is not perfect as we discussed in Yoga PTG. Following up upon this and improving it is another focus I support for Cinder. Lastly, I would like to put more emphasis upon the 3rd Party CI compliance check which we haven't done in a while and it would be good to know how many vendors are actually maintaining their CI consistently. There are some new ideas started by Brian in the past releases which I would like to continue. Some examples include the last cinder meeting being a video+IRC meeting and every third Friday of the month, we have a festival of XS reviews which significantly reduced the backlog of open patches. In the end, I would like to say, I want to continue the good trends set in the Cinder community and improve on certain areas where there is not much attention being given. I will do my best to address the above mentioned items during my time as PTL. Thanks for considering me. Rajat Dhasmana (whoami-rajat)
