by Allison Price 26 Sep '24

26 Sep '24

Hi everyone, I wanted to gather interest from PTLs to participate in an OpenStack Dalmatian OpenInfra Live on Thursday, October 3 after Wednesday’s release. Like past episodes (you can see Caracal here [1]), we will give interested PTLs the opportunity to present the progress their team made in 2024.2 Dalmatian as well as present upcoming priorities for 2025.1 Epoxy. The episode will air on Thursday at 1400 UTC, so interested participants would need to be available 1330-1500 UTC on Thursday, October 3. If you are interested, please let me know. Thanks!

Potential Mentorship Opportunities (Jan - May 2025)
by Kendall Nelson 26 Sep '24

26 Sep '24

Hello Party People! It's very early, but I wanted to float the information ahead of time :) Coming up for the next semester (Spring semester in Northern Hemisphere; Jan to May) we have the opportunity to propose projects to students at North Dakota State University to work on. Students will be in the last couple semesters before graduation with a Bachelor's degree in CS. Good projects would be scoped to a small group of students 3-5 working together for around 4.5 months (maybe 4 with onboarding, midterms etc). Mentors on these projects do not have to work alone - often I have two or three community members working together to mentor the students (ask Manila, they are a good example). I will want to start collecting project proposals (and mentor volunteers) in December before everyone leaves for the holidays but that still gives a fair amount of time for questions if anyone has them. I already have one team interested (Hi, Swift!) but would love a couple others to get involved. Let me know what questions you have or if you are interested in mentoring! -Kendall Nelson (diablo_rojo)

[ironic] [security] Ironic officially vulnerability-managed
by Jay Faulkner 26 Sep '24

26 Sep '24

Hi all, Although for a long time now, in practice, we've been using the Vulnerability Management team (VMT) process to triage, embargo, and resolve Ironic security bugs, we've now done the legwork needed to be officially managed by the VMT. The following Ironic projects are now VMT-managed[0]: - ironic - ironic-inspector - ironic-python-agent - ironic-lib - networking-baremetal - networking-generic-switch - python-ironicclient - python-ironic-inspector-client - sushy As per VMT policy[1]. the launchpad bug trackers for these projects have been updated to only allow access by the VMT to initial private-security bug reports. If there are any questions, please just ask! Thanks, Jay Faulkner 0: https://opendev.org/openstack/ossa/commit/b68aaa0652ec83b1349dddcdc334b7572… 1: https://security.openstack.org/repos-overseen.html#requirements (number 4)

[ceilometer] What's the general status / recommendation for Telemetry in OpenStack
by Waines, Greg 26 Sep '24

26 Sep '24

Hey ... I am working in OpenStack StarlingX which supports a Kubernetes cluster and a containerized OpenStack cluster (via openstack-helm). Our OpenStack offering is fairly simple ... only running Nova, Cinder, Neutron, Keystone, Glance, Horizon and Heat ... @ Antelope. In a predecessor of StarlingX, maybe in the Queens(?) timeframe ... we had a Telemetry solution that consisted of: - Ceilometer (for basic data polling, notifications and collection) - Panko (for event DB) - Gnocchi (for time-series DB) - Aodh (for alarming based on metric thresholds, etc.) HOWEVER ... today (Caracal) ... - I think Gnocchi is still alive and well ... https://github.com/gnocchixyz/gnocchi * but maintained outside of OpenStack - I think OpenStack Panko was deprecated in ~ Wallaby ? * and don't think(?) it is maintained outside of OpenStack ? - The OpenStack Landscape at https://www.openstack.org/software/ * shows only Ceilometer and Aodh MY QUESTIONs : ----------------------- - so what are the current recommendations for OpenStack Telemetry ? - is it just Ceilometer and Aodh ? * Does Ceilometer provide DBs ? (like it used to a long time ago) - is Gnocchi (although maintained outside of OpenStack) still supported in the OpenStack environment as a DB option ? - what is used for event DB ? ... now that panko is gone ... Gnocchi ? Ceilometer ? - are there actually multiple options/solutions for OpenStack Telemetry ? e.g. * Ceilometer / Gnocchi / Aodh * Ceilometer / External Elastic Solution / Aodh * Others ? Greg.

Openstack deployment on a single node server
by Gyan Dev Mishra 25 Sep '24

25 Sep '24

Hi, I am a newbie to OpenStack deployment, we are looking for a deployment strategy for OpenStack to test all our cloud-based apps to save on testing expenses. I tried it with microstack where I faced some issues related to Available Zones which was always empty. So, is it possible to use only one node to deploy and use complete OpenStack or do we need to follow some different strategy. I am having one server machine on which I want to deploy the complete cloud solutions. Kindly provide me with the necessary insights. I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Retire sqlalchemy-migrate
by Thomas Goirand 25 Sep '24

25 Sep '24

Hi, As much as I know, there's no active OpenStack project using sqlalchemy-migrate anymore. Can someone retire the project, or at least push some indication in the README.rst that the project is retired? When looking at: https://opendev.org/x/sqlalchemy-migrate nothing says so... Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

[trove][zaqar][vitrage] What to do with projects not supporting SQLAlchemy 2.x ?
by Thomas Goirand 25 Sep '24

25 Sep '24

Hi, A number of project still don't have support for SQLAlchemy 2.x, which is currently in Debian testing/unstable, and which will be the version in Debian 13 (aka: Trixie). If these project don't get quickly support for SQLAlchemy 2.x, they are going to drop (well, in fact, they were already kicked out of Debian Testing). Are these project still maintained? IMO, no support for SQLAlchemy 2.x is a reason good enough to declare they aren't... Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Network MTU setting in ovn/ovs
by Łukasz Chrustek 25 Sep '24

25 Sep '24

Hi, I have a question about increasing MTU for tenant network. Now it set to 1442 by default on geneve baked tenant network. Is there any drawbacks or it is some kind of bad practice to increase this MTU to 1500 bytes or higher ? We had an issue with one migrated instance from older version of openstack (where was linuxbrigde configured), there mtu was set to 1500, so the settings for i.e. docker inside the vm was set respectively to the higher value. -- Best regards Lukasz Chrustek
