[cinder] PTG reminder and schedule
by Jon Bernard 24 Oct '25

24 Oct '25

Hello all, We covered the schedule [1] in this week's meeting but I wanted to post it here for reference. We will be meeting Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of this week starting at 14:00 UTC. We technically have 4 hours each day to cover topics. Historically we have not needed all of that time, so I expect there will be some variability in end time. Two notable things to keep in mind: * We begin on Tuesday, not Monday - though there are some other sessions that day you may find interesting. See [2] for the full schedule * We have 4 cross team sessions with Eventlet, Nova, Glance, and Ironic. Keep those time slots in mind of those topics are of interest to you. Hope to see you all there!

Hello, Me and Dmitriy (noonedeadpunk) have an idea of making a cross-deployment-projects PTG session - where we could discuss some common problems and topics. I’ve created an etherpad [1] for collaboration purposes. We’re reaching out to OpenStack-Helm and Puppet projects if they would be interested in joining and discussing things we could improve together in OpenStack ecosystem. Please also put possible timeslots from your side in the etherpad. [1]: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/oct2025-ptg-cross-deploy Cheers, Michal

[nova] Persistent PXE boot for VMs
by Eugen Block 22 Oct '25

22 Oct '25

Good morning, we have the requirement to let a subset of VMs always boot in PXE mode. They're managed by a Uyuni server that controls whether a VM has to be (re)installed or if it should boot from local disk. I've been searching and testing, but to no avail yet, except for modifying the xml file which will not persist [0]. Is there a known history why this isn't possible (yet) or has this already been discussed and the decision was to not implement such a feature? We're thinking about implementing a solution for us, but would be also interested if a PR would have a chance to be accepted. If anyone has some insights/ideas/recommendations, I'd appreciate it. Thanks! Eugen [0] https://blog.dachary.org/2012/10/08/network-boot-an-openstack-instance/
