[openstack-ansible] lxc-container upgrade from ubuntu 18 to ubuntu 20 for USSURI
by Danish Khan 24 Apr '25

24 Apr '25

Dear Team, I am trying to upgrade lxc-container from ubuntu 18 to ubuntu 20 and I doing it by destroying and recreating lxc-containers. I have successfully upgraded cinder, glance, heat, horizon,memcached, neutron, nova and placement containers. But now I am unable to create galera, utility containers. I am getting below error for both: failed: [host5_galera_container-ac20] (item={'url': ' http://repo.vexxhost.net/mariadb/key.gpg'}) => {"ansible_loop_var": "key", "attempts": 5, "changed": false, "key": {"url": " http://repo.vexxhost.net/mariadb/key.gpg"}, "msg": "Failed to download key at http://repo.vexxhost.net/mariadb/key.gpg: HTTP Error 404: Not Found"} And it seems the URL http://repo.vexxhost.net/mariadb/key.gpg doesn't exist now. Do we have any workaround for this? Regards, Danish

[ops][upgrades][slurp] Seeking OpenStack Upgrade Case Studies
by Allison Price 24 Apr '25

24 Apr '25

Hi everyone, We have now published two case studies from OpenStack users who have implemented and are benefiting from the SLURP upgrade process[1]: Cleura[2] and Indiana University[3] I wanted to follow up to see if there are other organizations who have implemented the SLURP upgrade process who would like to tell your story? If we can get a few more, I would love to schedule an OpenInfra Live to deep dive into the improvements made around OpenStack upgrades and what users stuck on older releases should know. If you are interested, please let me know. And even if you’re not but you’re still using OpenStack—please remember to take the OpenStack User Survey[4] so we can learn more! Thanks!

Deploying a DC - DR solution
by KK CHN 24 Apr '25

24 Apr '25

Folks , I am exploring the possibility of OpenStack to set up an On Prem DC and Near line DR using OpenStack . I have exposure to OpenStack from the Ussuri version onwards but am not a master of OpenStack. Objective is to achieve near zero data loss of the growing VMs at the DC replicated in real time to the Near Line DR. At times of a DC crash or for scheduled maintenance activity to ensure business continuity (RPO near zero and RTO 30 minutes - 1 Hour) to operate from the DR site. Heard about similar solutions exists for VMWare or any proprietary OEM like vSphere replication,vSAN and SRM to orchestrate failover and fallback with RPO near zero and RTO 30 minutes to 1 Hr. But not an option due to budget constraints at the moment. What ways do folks at OpenStack achieve this kind of requirement? The underlying tools and techniques I have chosen to deploy and the best possible design of DC and DR to achieve the objectives. Any hints and guidance to start, much appreciated. Thank you, Krishane

[horizon] Heat template generator not working on Chrome
by Jorge Merlino 24 Apr '25

24 Apr '25

Hi folks, There is an issue with Horizon's heat template generator when using chrome or a chrome based browser. It can be easily reproduced by going to the Project / Orchestration / Template Generator menu. There are icons on the top of the screen that can be dragged into the canvas below. That works fine in Firefox but does not work in Chrome. When the icon is dragged over the canvas in Chrome it shows a little green plus sign next to it which does not appear in Firefox and dropping the icon does nothing. I could not see any errors show in the browser console or the debugger. Tested on horizon 22.1.1 (openstack Yoga) Thanks for your help Jorge
