[openstack][nova]qemu system wont release memory
by Nguyễn Hữu Khôi 29 Sep '25

29 Sep '25

Hello. I have an OpenStack instance that was using 14GB out of 16GB of memory. Later, when it was using only 4GB, I checked the QEMU process on the compute node, and it was still consuming 14GB, this means memory isn't released when usage decreases. Do we have solutions for this? I use Ubuntu 24.04 instances. Nguyen Huu Khoi

[blazar] Blazar-dashboard contains non-free files (ie: minified Javascripts)
by Thomas Goirand 22 Aug '25

22 Aug '25

Hi, I've been trying to package Blazar, all is already in Debian, but I can't get blazar-dashboard in, because upstream source contains non-free files. Namely: https://github.com/openstack/blazar-dashboard/blob/master/blazar_dashboard/… is a minifed version of a much more complex package: https://github.com/apexcharts/apexcharts.js/tree/v3.31.0 Reminder: minified Javascripts are considered by most distributions (this includes Red Hat, Ubuntu, and in my case Debian) as non-free files that cannot be shipped in the distribution without the underlying source code, and packages must build from the not minified version. Could the Blazar team work on un-vendoring apexcharts.min.js, possibly removing it completely, or replacing it with a source-full version? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

RE: Create image error
by berndbausch＠gmail.com 21 Jul '25

Violating limits imposed by the operator should lead to a useful error message rather than an HTTP 5xx error. In any case, there should have been a message in the Glance API log. Perhaps you are using a prerelease version of OpenStack? When you get Devstack from the Git, you may want to specify the version; otherwise, you obtain software that is currently under development. For example, the following gets you the first version released this year (Epoxy): git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/devstack -b stable/2025.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BEDDA Fadhel <fadhel.bedda(a)gmail.com> Sent: Saturday, May 31, 2025 6:00 PM To: berndbausch(a)gmail.com Subject: Re: Create image error Hello, I was able to work around the problem by disabling the limits in the file: /etc/glance/glance-api.conf False instead of True Thanks Le sam. 31 mai 2025 à 09:55, <mailto:berndbausch@gmail.com> a écrit : My guess is that the image service is down.

At first, I was able to create three images (Ubuntu, Debian, and Windows) in addition to the Cirros image. When I tried to add another image, everything got stuck. I couldn't add any images, and I got the infamous error 550. HttpException: 502: Server Error for url:

[nova] Information Sharing for Arm CCA Feature (Following 4/8 PTG)
by taketani.ryo＠fujitsu.com 15 Jul '25

15 Jul '25

Thank you for the productive discussion about Arm CCA feature [1] at the PTG on April 8th. > The use case for Arm CCA looks ok. But it is a bit early. It is wise to wait at least libvirt / qemu release to have a "stable" code. > We may want to have a OS distribution version (such as Ubuntu XX.YY) which supports Arm CCA so that users can actually use/test the feature The above information is quoted from the PTG Etherpad [2](L316) summary. I'd like to follow up on these points. I'd like to share relevant information about Arm CCA surrounding components (libvirt, QEMU, OS Distributions(e.g., Ubuntu xx.xx), hardware) as it becomes available, and proceed with the discussion step by step.. I'm starting with this email, but if there's a more appropriate method for sharing this type of information, please let me know. Here's the Arm CCA software components information I can share at this time: * Linux Kernel: The roadmap is outlined on the fifth page of the third attachment in this link [3]. The initial commits I've proposed to OpenStack are focused on RMM 1.0. KVM host support for RMM 1.0 will be available in H2 2025. * QEMU Upstream Status: The development is in-progress, awaiting the Linux Kernel merge * libvirt Upstream Status: The development is in-progress, awaiting the QEMU merge * OS Distribution Support: The road map is not clear now > We may want to have a OS distribution version (such as Ubuntu XX.YY) which supports Arm CCA so that users can actually use/test the feature I have a question regarding the above. For design discussions leading to spec approval, I understand that upstream QEMU/libvirt stable release is necessary. Is a specific OS distribution release (e.g., Ubuntu xx.xx) also required for spec approval?

[skyline] Request to extend core reviewers team
by Vladimir Kozhukalov 10 Jul '25

10 Jul '25

Hi team, The Skyline project seems to be interesting for many users but the review is slow at the moment. Maybe we could call for more volunteers who are able to spend some of their time for review and extend the project core reviewers team. Opinions are welcome. -- Best regards, Kozhukalov Vladimir

[i18n][infra][horizon] Zanata translation job failures after Python 3.8 deprecation
by Ian Y. Choi 09 Jul '25

09 Jul '25

Hi all, During last week's PTG, the I18n SIG identified Zanata translation job failures for Horizon (and likely related plugins). The root cause appears to be Python 3.8 deprecation on Horizon [1]. Failed jobs have been observed on Zuul [2], and translation proposals were made on Gerrit [3]. Since translation sync on Horizon stable branches is functioning correctly, the error message seems to be related to Python 3.8 deprecation: ERROR: Cannot install -r doc/requirements.txt (line 3) due to conflicting package version dependencies. To address this, I'd like to raise two points: 1/ To resolve the issue, would you support updating translation sync jobs with Bionic-based Zuul jobs by either upgrading to Jammy or modifying the Bionic image to support Python >3.8? 2/ At least me from I18n SIG acknowledges that recognizing these translation job errors was delayed. Moving forward, would it be beneficial to implement periodic (e.g., monthly) reporting on translation job successes and failures? Thank you, /Ian [1] https://docs.openstack.org/releasenotes/horizon/2024.2.html#upgrade-notes [2] https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/builds?job_name=propose-translation-up… [3] https://review.opendev.org/q/owner:proposal-bot+project:openstack/horizon+b…
