[all][dev][ops][tc] Bridging the gap between community and contributing orgs
by Jeremy Stanley 16 Jun '25

16 Jun '25

The tl;dr on this is that I'm opening a broad community discussion on how we can, collectively through improved communication, better bring together our established contributors with casual and prospective contributors who struggle to find successful patterns of contribution, so that we might all support each other in order to benefit OpenStack as a whole. Read on for details... OpenStack's TC has requested that foundation staff, when in conversation with representatives of member organizations, encourage participation in the project and collect feedback on any related challenges those organizations encounter in their attempts to do so. In order to better understand the feedback and brainstorm achievable recommendations for the broader community[*], Community Managers on the foundation staff started to work with a small focus group of established contributors with a solid understanding of what successful patterns of contribution look like. It also came to light that established contributors experience many of the same sorts of challenges, even more so if they don't have the luxury of focusing full-time upstream, and so success often comes down to knowing how to effectively navigate those challenges. The community's goal with this exercise is to improve everyone's experience, and your help is needed to do that! The most common themes reported by those struggling to contribute are not related to tooling or workflow confusion, but instead seem to come down to basic communication challenges. Ideas so far to address these gaps include: * Review bandwidth - Ensure contributors and companies understand the importance and benefits of code review - Incentivize and credit meaningful "+1" reviews more - Understand that the volume of changes and limited reviewer bandwidth often means proposals aren't reviewed quickly (or at all), and their proponents may need some additional tenacity and engagement with the team to get their work noticed - Utilize "review dashboards" as a way to find stale changes which have fallen through the cracks * Review strategy and etiquette - Be clear about the meaning of votes on changes, especially negative ones, and set explicit timelines for things like "procedural -2" or WIP blocks when their approval needs to be delayed - Focus on comments and requests that affect whether or not the change can be merged after the fixes are submitted, rather than requesting trivial adjustments to an unsuitable change which has more fundamental problems - Reciprocate with reviews of changes from new reviewers you see leaving insubstantial reviews, demonstrating to them what deeper and more meaningful reviewing looks like * Mentoring newcomers - Established contributors with sufficient bandwidth can help mentoring newcomers, potential core reviewers and new leaders - Mentoring can happen as part of internship programs as well as by helping newcomers determined to become active contributors; both ways should be embraced and utilized What challenges are you facing? And, how would you improve them? Two weeks from now, we'll have a forum session at the OpenInfra Summit Asia in Suwon[**] where our community can refine these possible approaches and integrate others, as well as bring attention to them and promote their application. I've also proposed a similar forum session for OpenInfra Days North America in Indianapolis a month after that, where we can hopefully continue this conversation. The goal for this multi-stage effort is to improve the contribution experience for established participants, casual contributors and newcomers alike. While it's easy to jump to blaming in these situations, it will be far more productive if we can focus on the challenges and experiences that we would each like to remove or improve for ourselves and others in our community. As we find ways together to improve our efficiency, we can reduce the load on all contributors and lower the barriers for people to join and participate.

[nova] Is It Possible to Attach a Cinder Volume as device='lun' ?
by Janaka Wickramasinghe 16 Jun '25

16 Jun '25

Hi, I'm running an OpenStack setup with Fibre Channel (FC) storage using Cinder volumes. I'm currently trying to configure a Windows Failover Cluster in guest VMs and have encountered an issue. Windows is querying the SCSI device for the Device Identification VPD (Page 0x83). The LUN is attached as a SCSI device using a virtio-scsi controller. In the domain XML (via libvirt), I see that the disk is defined as <disk type='block' device='disk'> also has a <serial>cinder-vol-uuid</serial> When Page 0x83 is queried, it returns the serial value (i.e., the cinder-vol-uuid), which Windows fails to recognize or accept. However, if I modify the XML to use: <disk type='block' device='lun'> and remove the <serial> tag, the guest is able to retrieve the expected information (I had to stop the compute service and restart the libvirt domain). Unfortunately, any changes made directly to the domain XML do not persist. Is there a supported way to specify device='lun' instead of device='disk' for volumes attached ? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you With Best regards, Janaka

[designate] It only syncs at reboot
by Alexander Luedtke 12 Jun '25

12 Jun '25

Hello Everyone, I have a strange problem, I wanted the designate services as hidden master, everything works fine, expect that the designate server does only sync with the master DNS server if I do a reboot of the host where the designate docker is on, or I have to restart the designate docker. Has anyone an idea how to fix that ? best regards Alex

[horizon] Changing the Term “Instance” to “Server” for improved clarity and consistency
by Dmitriy Chubinidze 11 Jun '25

11 Jun '25

Propose changing the term "Instance" to "Server" ( "Instances" to "Servers") in the platform’s user interface. This update will be aiming to improve clarity for users, align with industry terminology, and create a more intuitive experience. "Server" is a more commonly understood term than "Instance", especially for users who are not deeply familiar with cloud computing. Major platforms like AWS and Azure often use "Server" in their UI, even when referring to virtual instances. Adopting this term will make OpenStack easier to use and understand. This change will affect only the visual elements — such as UI labels, menus, and documentation. The underlying code, APIs, and data structures using the term instance will remain unchanged. This ensures there is no impact on functionality or development processes. We are open to feedback and discussion on this proposal.

Re: Api routes
by Bernd Bausch 11 Jun '25

11 Jun '25

I took the liberty to add the OpenStack mailing list on CC. As far as I know, the list of a service's APIs is not advertised to users, except in the documentation. An operator with access to the cloud controllers can list all endpoints of a service by generating a policy file, for example oslopolicy-sample-generator --namespace nova This will create a YAML file that contains a paragraph similar to the following per endpoint, which describes the authorization policy of this endpoint: # Delete a server # DELETE /servers/{server_id} # Intended scope(s): project #"os_compute_api:servers:delete": "rule:project_member_or_admin" This example is from https://docs.openstack.org/nova/2025.1/configuration/sample-policy.html. You need to run the oslopolicy command on a controller that contains the service's (in this case, Nova's) code. ________________________________________ From: engineer2024 <engineerlinux2024(a)gmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2025 10:55 PM To: Bernd Bausch <berndbausch(a)gmail.com> Subject: Re: Api routes This is not what I need.

nova.conf : can [pci]alias be multivalued ?
by Michel Jouvin 10 Jun '25

10 Jun '25

Hi, We need to support several GPU models in our Nova configuration. This normally requires to add multiple `alias` entries (lines) in the [pci] section of nova.conf. Unfortunately for us, it complicates a lot the generation of nova.conf by our system configuration management tool (where the section is represented by a dict/hash, meaning that there is only 1 possible entry for 'alias'). Before trying to hack our tool, we were wondering if there is a way to put the different values as a list for a single 'alias' line and what should be the separator or syntax ? I was not able to identify a generic description of the syntax for multivalued parameters, if there is a generic rule. I already found this limitation (but we could live with it) for Keystone [federation]trusted_dashboard for example... Thanks in advance for any hint. Best regards, Michel

by Yasufumi Ogawa 09 Jun '25

09 Jun '25

Hi tacker team, For some members joined our team recently, it's not convenient to attend the IRC meeting since they have another regular meeting at the same time. So I'd like to propose to change the meeting time from Tuesday 8:00 UTC to Monday 8:00 UTC. Let me know if you guys are not convenient, or we'll change the time from next week (16th June). Thanks, Yasufumi

[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2025.2/R-16)
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 09 Jun '25

09 Jun '25

Hello Stackers, We're 16 weeks away from the date earmarked for the coordinated 2025.2 "Flamingo" release of OpenStack [1]. OpenStack project teams are wrapping up design specifications and gearing up to land feature changes. In the past week, the OpenInfra Foundation officially joined the Linux Foundation [2]. This is a significant move for OpenStack and other projects under the OIF. I join you in hoping that this means greater acceleration for OpenStack and broader avenues to collaborate with other open source projects under the Linux Foundation. In the same week, the OpenStack Technical Committee also passed a few important resolutions. The primary one was to adopt the "Developer Certificate of Origin" [3] for contributor sign-offs beginning July 1, 2025. What does this mean for you? This means that any new patch uploaded to the OpenStack review system (https://review.opendev.org) on or after July 1, 2025, will require a "Signed-off-by" line in the commit message. Doing so indicates that you are submitting this code in adherence to the DCO, which replaces the Contributor License Agreement that we have long required. Adding a DCO sign-off can be done by using "git commit -s" when your username and email are properly configured in your Git environment. The TC encourages PTLs, project liaisons, and all maintainers to help other contributors become familiar with this change and assist anyone who may be confused by the new requirement. If you have any questions, please join us in #openstack-dev or #openstack-tc on OFTC, or ask away on this mailing list. Alongside this significant change, the TC also clarified the actions that the Election Officials will take when there is no need for an election [4]. The next elections for Project Team Leads and a portion of the OpenStack Technical Committee will occur between Aug 27, 2025, and Sep 17, 2025. The official nomination window opens at 23:45 UTC on Aug 06, 2025. However, you're welcome to submit your nomination at any time before this date. Doing so may be helpful if you plan to be away during the nomination window. OpenDev Infrastructure Administrators have now enabled all registered users to add or edit hashtags on the code review system [5]. Some project teams have long found this useful for linking related changes—hashtags in Gerrit are more versatile than topics. I hope you'll find this helpful! === Weekly Meeting === On Jun 3, 2025, the OpenStack Technical Committee held its weekly meeting as both a video conference [6] and over IRC in OFTC's #openstack-tc channel [7]. The meeting was well attended and primarily focused on the DCO (Developer Certificate of Origin) implementation, contributor experience challenges, and other open governance proposals. A key decision was to separate translation-related concerns from the main DCO implementation. The i18n SIG has been migrating from Zanata to Weblate and will explore how the DCO can be prominently enforced via Weblate. The discussion then moved on to the findings from the maintainer and contributor surveys for the Epoxy release cycle. The survey results [8] indicated that 73% of maintainers reported difficulty getting review attention, while 68% of non-maintainer contributors faced challenges in having their reviews completed. TC members brainstormed potential reasons, and some key concerns identified include: - Inconsistent review prioritization across projects - Poor visibility into project-specific review processes - Heavy reliance on Etherpads for tracking priorities - Underutilization of review priority labels in projects that have enabled them A couple of minor action items were identified for the TC and project maintainers. Project maintainers are expected to audit their CONTRIBUTING.rst files and clearly indicate how contributors can get their changes reviewed and merged. The TC also plans to enforce more structured cross-project discussions at the October PTG. As a tangential concern, we supported the idea of hosting an ops meetup at the upcoming OpenInfra Summit in Paris-Saclay [9]. The next meeting of the OpenStack TC is today, 2025-06-09, at 17:00 UTC. This meeting will be held over IRC in the #openstack-tc channel on OFTC. Please find the agenda on the meeting's wiki page [10]. I hope you'll be able to join us. === Governance Proposals === ==== Merged ==== - Replace CLA with DCO for all contributions | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/950463 - Add nova-contrib repository | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/951569 - Clarify actions when no elections are required | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/949431 ==== Open for review ==== - Require declaration of affiliation from TC Candidates | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/949432 === Upcoming Events === - 2025-06-13: CFP Closes for the OpenInfra Summit EU: https://summit2025.openinfra.org/cfp/ - 2025-06-28: OpenInfra+Cloud Native Day, Vietnam: https://www.vietopeninfra.org/void2025 - 2025-07-19: OpenInfra Days Indonesia: https://2025.openinfra.id/ Thank you very much for reading!

[designate] Support for quorum queues
by Thomas Goirand 06 Jun '25

06 Jun '25

Hi, When setting-up Designate with quorum queues, when designate-central starts, I get: Queue.declare: (406) PRECONDITION_FAILED - invalid property 'non-durable' for queue 'central' in vhost '/' Does Designate support quorum queues? If so, how com it's trying to set 'non-durable', which doesn't exist as attribute, at least with RabbitMQ 4.0.5? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

[release] Release countdown for week R-16
by Thierry Carrez 06 Jun '25

06 Jun '25

Development Focus ----------------- The Flamingo-2 milestone will happen in next month, on July 3rd, 2025. 2025.2 Flamingo-related specs should now be finalized so that teams can move to implementation ASAP. Some teams observe specific deadlines on the second milestone (mostly spec freezes): please refer to https://releases.openstack.org/flamingo/schedule.html for details. General Information ------------------- Please remember that libraries need to be released at least once per milestone period. At milestone 2, the release team will propose releases for any library that has not been otherwise released since milestone 1. Other non-library deliverables that follow the cycle-with-intermediary release model should have an intermediary release before milestone-2. Those who haven't will be proposed to switch to the cycle-with-rc model, which is more suited to deliverables that are released only once per cycle. At milestone-2 we also freeze the contents of the final release. If you have a new deliverable that should be included in the final release, you should make sure it has a deliverable file in: https://opendev.org/openstack/releases/src/branch/master/deliverables/flami… You should request a beta release (or intermediary release) for those new deliverables by milestone-2. We understand some may not be quite ready for a full release yet, but if you have something minimally viable to get released it would be good to do a 0.x release to exercise the release tooling for your deliverables. See the MembershipFreeze description for more details: https://releases.openstack.org/flamingo/schedule.html#f-mf Finally, now may be a good time for teams to check on any stable releases that need to be done for your deliverables. If you have bugfixes that have been backported, but no stable release getting those. If you are unsure what is out there committed but not released in the openstack/releases repo, running the command "tools/list_stable_unreleased_changes.sh <cycle_name>" gives a nice report. Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Flamingo-2 Milestone: July 3rd, 2025 -- Thierry Carrez (ttx)

Networking design for two external networks
by Andrei RADU 06 Jun '25

06 Jun '25

Hello guys, This is obviously a noob question but here goes: We want to link our openstack cloud with the rest of the network with two separate external physical routers, for redundancy. These will also be the BGP peers declared in openstack for advertising internal routes. We could do VRRP and have a shared IP between the two external routers but I understand that if we make a bgp adjacency with a VIP between the two external routers, when this will move from one router to the other in case of failure, there will be a period of outage on the BGP. So in order to avoid that, in openstack we were thinking to have two external provider network vlans, one for each external router, which will handle connectivity with the exterior. What would be the best network design to link the tenant networks to these two networks in a HA mode? Where would be best place to do the “smart” routing to direct the traffic one way or the other. Or is there a more elegant solution? Thank you and sorry if the question is too basic or too general, hopefully if someone used this design can share their experience.
