[nova] How to gain approval for a new feature on unavailable hardware
by taketani.ryo＠fujitsu.com 27 Dec '24

27 Dec '24

To Whom It May Concern, We are considering to propose and develop a new feature on OpenStack Nova for building Arm Confidential Computing Architecture (Arm CCA)-encrypted instances. I have some questions for doing it. * While specification of Arm CCA is already open(https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0125/0300/Overview), No Arm CCA-enabled hardware is currently available to our knowledge. Therefore, we plan to conduct testing in an internal environment. * Would a proposal for a feature utilizing publicly unavailable hardware be acceptable to OpenStack? Alternatively, in this case, what steps or preparations are required for approval? * Should the blueprint and specification be submitted simultaneously? * The specification is currently incomplete. Building Arm CCA instances requires libvirt APIs, similar to AMD SEV instances(https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/amd-sev-libvirt-suppo…, but specification of these are not yet determined publicly. We are considering submitting the blueprint first to inform the community of our ongoing development efforts. Regards

ERROR openstack [-] Resource OS::TripleO::Network::Ports::ControlPlaneVipPort maps to type OS::Neutron::Port and the Neutron service is not available when using ephemeral Heat.| Openstack tripleo wallaby version
by Swogat Pradhan 24 Dec '24

Hi, I am currently trying to deploy openstack wallaby using tripleo arch. I created the network jinja templates, ran the following commands also: #openstack overcloud network provision --stack overcloud --output networks-deployed-environment.yaml custom_network_data.yaml # openstack overcloud network vip provision --stack overcloud --output vip-deployed-environment.yaml custom_vip_data.yaml # openstack overcloud node provision --stack overcloud --overcloud-ssh-key /home/stack/sshkey/id_rsa overcloud-baremetal-deploy.yaml and used the environment files in the openstack overcloud deploy command: (undercloud) [stack@hkg2director ~]$ cat deploy.sh #!/bin/bash THT=/usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/ CNF=/home/stack/ openstack overcloud deploy --templates $THT \ -r $CNF/templates/roles_data.yaml \ -n $CNF/workplace/custom_network_data.yaml \ -e ~/containers-prepare-parameter.yaml \ -e $CNF/templates/node-info.yaml \ -e $CNF/templates/scheduler-hints.yaml \ -e $CNF/workplace/networks-deployed-environment.yaml \ -e $CNF/workplace/vip-deployed-environment.yaml \ -e $CNF/workplace/overcloud-baremetal-deployed.yaml \ -e $CNF/workplace/custom-net-bond-with-vlans.yaml Now when i run the ./deploy.sh script i encounter an error stating: ERROR openstack [-] Resource OS::TripleO::Network::Ports::ControlPlaneVipPort maps to type OS::Neutron::Port and the Neutron service is not available when using ephemeral Heat. The generated environments from 'openstack overcloud baremetal provision' and 'openstack overcloud network provision' must be included with the deployment command.: tripleoclient.exceptions.InvalidConfiguration: Resource OS::TripleO::Network::Ports::ControlPlaneVipPort maps to type OS::Neutron::Port and the Neutron service is not available when using ephemeral Heat.

[all] Installation guide for openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise
by Takashi Kajinami 24 Dec '24

24 Dec '24

Hello, As you may know, we have been maintaining installation guide for three linux distributions below. - oepnSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise - Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS - Ubuntu However, as far as I know, the packages for openSUSE and SLES haven't been built/updated for some time. Also openSUSE was removed from tested runtimes in wallaby and hasn't been tested. So I doulbt that users can use these operating systems to install OpenStack nowadays. Can/Should we remove the guide for openSUSE/SLES Now ? I'm not very sure if we can maintain the guide for these with no details available nowadays. Thank you, Takashi -- Takashi Kajinami irc: tkajinam github: https://github.com/kajinamit launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~kajinamit

[tc][all][monasca ] Retiring the Monasca project
by Ghanshyam Mann 11 Dec '24

11 Dec '24

Hello everyone, As you might know, the Monasca project is not active and was marked 'inactive' since 2024.1 cycle[1]. In this cycle also, this project is leaderless[2] and no maintainer stepped up to maintain it. As discussed in the Leaderless project etherpad[2], the next step is to retire the project. I'm sending this email to propose the Monasca retirement and based on the response, I will proceed next.

[all][tc][ptl][qa] Migrating upstream CI/CD jobs to Ubuntu Noble (24.04)
by Ghanshyam Mann 10 Dec '24

10 Dec '24

Hello Everyone, As per the 2025.2 cycle testing runtime, we need to run upstream CI/CD jobs on Ubuntu Noble (24.04) [1]. For better tracking and speeding up this work, it is the community-wide goal for this cycle[2]. This is the etherpad which has the migration plan and will be used for the tracking: - https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/migrate-to-noble I have prepared the change(WIP) for base jobs migration on Noble (openstack tox jobs, devstack, and tempest) which will migrate most of the projects jobs. Tempest change[3] include dependency on openstack tox, devstack base jobs changes so testing project gate using the the tempest change will test the complete set. Refer to the etherpad for the complete migration plan/steps. * Deadline: Nov 29th 2024 (R18) is the deadline to test/fix the projects jobs and to merge the base jobs running on Noble (openstck tox, devstack, and tempest).

Hi Everyone, Its be good experience to deploy Kayobe in all in one mode and see cirros image getting deployed and acesssible. Moving forward for multi-node deployment of baremetal machines. i tried to enable bifrost bit i doesn't seems to et enable by setting configurations in bifrost.yaml. What it takes to enable and use Bifrost using kayobe ? It may sound basic question. Thank you Ali
