[heat][ops] Removal of standalone api services (heat-api and heat-cfn-api)
by Takashi Kajinami 01 Jul '25

01 Jul '25

Hello, Historically heat has provided two methods to deploy api services (native heat api and heat CFN api). 1. standalone script based on eventlet 2. wsgi application run by server framework like apache or uwsgi Now the heat team is trying to get rid of eventlet following the global effort to replace it, and the current blocker is 1 because we have no good alternative to re-implement the standaloe service. The global migration strategy is to remove standalone api services using eventlet and provide only wsgi application. So I'm now sending an email to ask for any input, in case if any operator has concern about our current plan below. - Backport deprecation of standalone api scripts to 2025.1 - Remove these scripts during 2025.2 This means that any operators should use 3rd party server framework like uwsgi and apache+mod_wsgi to run heat api from 2025.2 . I understand backporting deprecation is something we won't accept usually, but I've seen this pattern was done in the past for a few exceptions like Hyper-V support removal. If we hear no objections/concerns for a week then, we aim to merge the removal during this cycle. Thank you, Takashi -- Takashi Kajinami irc: tkajinam github: https://github.com/kajinamit launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~kajinamit

[dev][tc] Replacing CLA enforcement with DCO enforcement
by Jeremy Stanley 30 Jun '25

30 Jun '25

As previously discussed[*], tomorrow (2025-07-01) I'll merge a change[**] switching Gerrit to start requiring Signed-off-by in commit messages when pushing new changes or revisions to changes in OpenStack repositories (existing changes don't need to be amended in order to merge; only when revising, rebasing or backporting to other branches). Agreeing to the OpenInfra ICLA will no longer be necessary. The OpenStack Contributor Guide has already been updated to reflect this[***]. After this update merges, when attempting to push or alter a change's content you may receive an error (from git review/git push at the command line or from the Gerrit WebUI if you're trying to edit a change there) notifying you that you're missing a Signed-off-by trailer in your commit message. You can either add one with git's -s option like... git commit -s (to add when making a new commit) git commit --amend -s (when altering an existing commit) ...or by directly editing the commit message to include a line at the end with your address such as... Signed-off-by: Jeremy Stanley <fungi(a)yuggoth.org> Keep in mind that if you're pushing a series of changes, you may need to update all their commit messages, e.g. through an interactive rebase. If anyone has questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

[oslo][mistral][keystone] broken library gate
by Elõd Illés 30 Jun '25

30 Jun '25

Hi teams in $SUBJECT, The release team usually checks the gate health of libraries which did not have merged patches recently and it seems you have a project with broken gate: oslo.utils: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/oslo.utils/+/952914 python-mistralclient: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/python-mistralclient/+/952927 python-keystoneclient: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/python-keystoneclient/+/952923 Could you please check and fix the gate so that we don't release 2025.2 Flamingo with a broken state.

[keystone][horizon] OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_DOMAIN_DROPDOWN security impact
by Pierre Riteau 30 Jun '25

30 Jun '25

Hello, The documentation for the OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_DOMAIN_DROPDOWN option in Horizon [1] has this warning: > It is strongly advised NOT to enable this for public clouds, as advertising enabled domains to unauthenticated customers irresponsibly exposes private information. This should only be used for private clouds where the dashboard sits behind a corporate firewall. In a context where this option enables one or multiple domains that would be publicly documented anyway, is there really any issue with using this option on a publicly-accessible Horizon deployment? Thanks, Pierre Riteau (priteau) [1] https://docs.openstack.org/horizon/latest/configuration/settings.html#opens…

"tag" API in OpenStack, case sensitive
by Rodolfo Alonso Hernandez 30 Jun '25

30 Jun '25

Hello all: I initially found this issue in Neutron [1] but it seems to be more of an OpenStack wide problem. In Neutron, when you try to create a tag with different case (upper, lower), the API fails: $ openstack port create --network private port_tags $ openstack port set --tag tag1 port_tags $ openstack port set --tag TAG1 port_tags # this command will fail with the following message: ConflictException: 409: Client Error for url: http://192.168.10.100/networking/v2.0/ports/21788aea-98b7-4606-bcf4-5f963ce…, Failed to create a duplicate Tag: for attribute(s) ['tags.PRIMARY'] with value(s) 47-TAG1 That happens because in Neutron we don't sanitize the input "tags" and we consider that "tag1" is different to "Tag1", as recommended by [2]: "Tags are case sensitive". But checking the table definitions in OpenStack (for example [3][4][5]), all projects seem to have the same problem: we define the tuple (resource, tag) as the primary key. But if we use a case insensitive table collation (for example "utf8_general_ci" or "utf8mb3_general_ci"), the comparison between "tag1" and "TAG1" will match. In the Neutron API, because we don't consider this scenario, the API raises the mentioned exception. In Nova, for example, the command succeeds but the new tag is not added. So the question here is: * Do we change the API definition to make it case insensitive? That will need, most probably, to revisit all stored tags and convert them to lower case. It will also require sanitizing the API input and making all tags lower case. * Do we enforce a charset and collation case sensitive for these specific tables? Regards.

nova-ovs-hybrid-plug CI jobs failing for Nova
by Michael Still 30 Jun '25

30 Jun '25

Hi, over the weekend it appears that nova-ovs-hybrid-plug CI jobs have been failing for Nova, I think because of this error: "Failed to contact the endpoint at https://200.225.47.11/image for discovery. Fallback to using that endpoint as the base url." https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/fcc678f62f584bbb9726821f5992ae90 is an example of such a failure. The CI job then executes: openstack --os-compute-api-version 2.74 server create --image --flavor --nic net-id= --host np0041269081 --wait evacuate-test Which is invalid because it doesn't have an argument to the --image flag. I am unsure who owns 200.225.47.11. Is it possible its offline? Thanks, Michael

[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2025.2/R-13)
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 30 Jun '25

30 Jun '25

Hello Stackers, We're thirteen weeks away from the coordinated release of OpenStack 2025.2 "Flamingo" [1]. This Thursday marks Milestone-2 of the release cycle. This is a bug-targeting milestone for OpenStack project teams, as well as a checkpoint for the OpenStack Release Management team to line up deliverables that will be part of the coordinated release at the end of this development cycle. Currently, the number of deliverables to be released has only changed slightly from the OpenStack 2025.1 release. No significant deliverables have been deprecated or removed. In the past week, the OpenStack Technical Committee did not make any new governance changes; however, several proposals are under the community's review. Most significantly, today (2025-06-30) marks the end of the OpenStack Contributor License Agreement (CLA). The CLA was adopted in July 2010 (do you feel old yet?) [2], and thousands of contributors have signed it. However, for over a decade, we've felt encumbered by how it was arcane, perceived to be more permissive than Apache v2 and caused friction with individuals and organizations. We believe it has limited contributor involvement. Today, we join several other open source projects in requiring the "Developer Certificate of Origin" as a way to sign off your contributions. As we close the lid on the CLA regime, you'll need to "git commit -s" each of your contributions from 2025-07-01 to adhere to the DCO [3][4]. We do anticipate hiccups and request your cooperation in ironing out any issues in the code review system and contributor tooling during this transition. If you notice something broken, please chime in on this mailing list or on OFTC's #opendev channel. === Weekly Meeting === The last weekly meeting of the OpenStack Technical Committee was held on 2025-06-24 [5]. The meeting was well attended and covered several topics. The proposal to mark the Cyborg project as inactive [6] was withdrawn after critical CI fixes were merged. While activity has resumed for this cycle, there are concerns about the project’s long-term maintenance, particularly in light of future OpenStack-wide changes like eventlet removal and dependency updates. It was opined that Cyborg is not "feature complete" and must stay responsive to ongoing ecosystem changes, even if its core functionality appears stable. The upcoming cycle's elections will serve as a checkpoint to reassess the project’s trajectory and whether new maintainers need onboarding. We then discussed the timeline of the ongoing effort to phase out eventlet. A new governance patch [7] proposes a timeline that aligns with operator and distro expectations, especially in light of Python 3.13 adoption. Python 3.12 will continue to be a fallback for some time, but when supporting Python 3.13, we hope not to depend on eventlet across the board. The TC emphasized that continued discussion on the Gerrit change is necessary to finalize acceptable timelines. The next major topic concerned setuptools changes that will impact PBR (Python Build Reasonableness). Setuptools will remove "ScriptWriter" and "pkg_resources" by October 31, 2025. These removals break current functionality in PBR and could jeopardize CI and release workflows. A critical bug was reported against PBR by maintainers of setuptools [8]. The TC discussed options ranging from vendoring replacements to rewriting PBR logic or adopting upstream tools despite performance tradeoffs. A key concern is that PBR’s CI is currently broken and must be fixed before any meaningful changes can be implemented. We'd like to seek a volunteer to resolve this issue. Please chime in on OFTC's #openstack-tc or #openstack-oslo if you're keen to help with this. In closing, we discussed the OpenInfra Summit 2025 CFP for Forum Sessions and Project Updates. CFP submissions must be made before 23:45 PST on 2025-07-08 [9]. The next meeting of the OpenStack Technical Committee will be held on 2025-07-01 at 1700 UTC. This meeting will be hosted simultaneously over Meetpad and IRC. You're welcome to join whichever platform you prefer. The Meetpad session will be recorded, and the recording will be shared on the TC's YouTube channel [10]. Please find the agenda and joining information on the meeting's wiki page [11]. I hope you'll be able to join us there. === Governance Proposals === ==== Open for review ==== - Add service-types-authority to SDK deliverables | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/953548 - Deprecate shade, os-client-config | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/953549 - Remove Monasca from active project | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/953671 - Make Eventlet removal deadlines more acceptable for operators | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/952903 - Require declaration of affiliation from TC Candidates | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/949432 === Upcoming Events === - 2025-07-03: OpenStack's 15th Birthday, Colombia User Group: https://www.meetup.com/colombia-openinfra-user-group/events/308383244 - 2025-07-08: OpenInfra Board meeting: https://board.openinfra.org/ - 2025-07-19: OpenInfra Days, Indonesia: https://2025.openinfra.id/ Thank you very much for reading!

Floating IP randomly becomes unreachable from external network (OSA AIO 30.0.2, Ubuntu 24.04)
by christophel＠silival.com 28 Jun '25

28 Jun '25

Hello, I’m currently running an OpenStack-Ansible All-In-One deployment (version 30.0.2) on Ubuntu 24.04. The environment hosts several virtual machines across multiple tenant networks. Each VM is assigned a floating IP from a public 172.x.x.x range, which allows access from the controller host and external clients. The issue From time to time, a VM becomes unreachable via its floating IP. The instance is still: Running normally. Reachable from other VMs on the same internal tenant network using its private IP (10.x.x.x). Associated with the same security groups and port configuration as before. This happens without any apparent trigger or configuration change. I can still ping and SSH to other VMs’ floating IPs, so the problem is isolated to one instance at a time. Workaround The only way I’ve found to restore external access is: Disassociate and delete the current floating IP. Allocate a new floating IP from the same pool. Associate it to the same VM port. Once the new floating IP is set, the VM becomes immediately reachable again. This has now occurred several times across different VMs. I’m concerned it will keep happening randomly. Question Has anyone encountered similar behavior with floating IPs in an OpenStack-Ansible AIO setup? Is there a known root cause, or any specific logs or areas I should investigate? If this mailing list is not the right place for this type of question, I’d also appreciate guidance on where to report it or who to contact. Thanks in advance for your help, Christophe.

by Carlos Silva 27 Jun '25

27 Jun '25

Hello zorillas and interested stackers, Our Flamingo hack-a-ton starts next Monday at 15:00 UTC. We've been closing the gaps on OSC for a while now, and we are getting close to wrap everything up prior to the removal of the manilaclient and fully focus on OSC. On this hack-a-ton, we will focus on adding more functional test coverage to the OSC commands. Hackathon Plan: * Task Assignments: participants are encouraged to create, claim, and edit Taiga cards for their chosen implementations. Recent additions can serve as inspiration. Please contact Carlos (carloss) to be added to the Taiga board. Additionally, please add yourself as a "watcher" to two other Taiga cards being implemented by others to serve as a code reviewer. * Code Submission Window: Code can be submitted between June 30th, 15:00 UTC, and July 4th, 15:00 UTC, to be considered part of this hackathon. * Kick-off Session: A one-hour kick-off session will be held on June 30th at 15:00 UTC. This session will cover environment setup and also how to implement and run tests in your environment. The doc was kindly prepared by Vida (vhari) and is already available [2] in case you'd like a headstart. * Mid-point Status Check: The Manila upstream weekly meeting hour will serve as a mid-point status check. [1] https://gist.github.com/silvacarloss/295ca27bc1d76aed6564ab05ebdea2c7 [2] https://docs.google.com/document/d/1n44DXYvn_HDvr-NIuL3k3SE_UxoH15swMn0zPbc… Looking forward to working with you!

hi all after today's meetup I have compiled information/documentation about migrating to OVN here https://github.com/mariojmdavid/migrate-to-ovn feel free to check, comment, criticize, you can open issues or contribute the process is far from full bulletproof I have this openstack infra up and running in production, but there are a few points I am in doubt, and will need further discussion namely about the net namespace (I was used with ip netns exec qrouter.... on the nodes running the l3-agent), as well as how to properly configure SRIOV but will get there best Mario

[release] Release countdown for week R-13, Jun 30 - Jul 04
by Elõd Illés 27 Jun '25

27 Jun '25

Development Focus ----------------- The Flamingo-2 milestone is next week, 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 ------------------- Libraries need to be released at least once per milestone period. The release team will soon propose releases for any library that has not been otherwise released since milestone-1. PTL's and release liaisons, please watch for these and give a +1 to acknowledge them. If there is some reason to hold off on a release, let us know that as well. A +1 would be appreciated, but if we do not hear anything at all by the end of the week, we will assume things are OK to proceed. Remember that 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. Next week is also the deadline to freeze the contents of the final release. All new '2025.2 Flamingo' deliverables need to have a deliverable file in https://opendev.org/openstack/releases/src/branch/master/deliverables/flami… and need to have done a release by milestone-2. Changes proposing those deliverables for inclusion in 2025.2 Flamingo have been posted, please update them with an actual release request before the milestone-2 deadline if you plan on including that deliverable in 2025.2 Flamingo, or -1 if you need one more cycle to be ready. Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Flamingo-2 Milestone: July 3rd, 2025 Előd Illés irc: elodilles @ #openstack-release

[neutron][os-ken] Bug on the BGP loop prevention
by anas.jouhdy＠gmail.com 27 Jun '25

27 Jun '25

Hi, As it is my first message here, do not hesitate to tell me if something is wrong with the ticket ! I think there is a bug in this file https://opendev.org/openstack/os-ken/src/branch/master/os_ken/services/prot… on the method "_is_looped_path_attrs" on line 1655. In the case we found a loop, we should return True instead of None. For example in my case, I have an Openstack BGP speaker that advertise correctly the reachable subnets in Openstack. The external peer (Cumulus switch in my case) re-advertise the IP prefix of the subnets to my Openstack BGP speaker when it learns them. This rightfully raise an error in the log thanks to this method "_is_looped_path_attrs" telling that the update coming from the external peer will be ignored as the local AS was found in the AS Path but after that, the debug log implies that the path was still added to the potential path that can reach the subnet. This then become an issue when we detach our subnet from the router, because only the local path will be removed and the route will not be withdrawn (because the new best path will be the "false" route learned back from Cumulus) Do not hesitate to ask for precision !

[cinder] Volume to Image Upload with Multi-Store Backends (Cinder + Glance)
by Maximilian Stinsky-Damke 27 Jun '25

27 Jun '25

Greetings, I'm in the process of setting up a new OpenStack deployment where both Cinder and Glance are configured with multiple Ceph-based backends using the multi-store functionality. Basic operations (create, delete, snapshot, upload, etc.) work fine for each store in both services. However, I'm encountering issues when trying to upload a Cinder volume to Glance as an image in this setup. My understanding is that when the volume type does not include image_service:store_id, Cinder should upload the image to the default Glance store. However, in my case, this upload fails with the following error: ERROR oslo_messaging.rpc.server FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/ceph/ceph.client.cinder.keyring' I'm having trouble understanding why Cinder is trying to access this particular keyring. Each of my Cinder backends has its own Ceph config and keyring pointing to the appropriate cluster, and everything else works correctly. Here are my specific questions: 1. Should Cinder not be uploading the volume to Glance via the API, without needing direct access to the Glance Ceph store? 2. If Cinder is expected to access the Glance backend directly (e.g., to optimize data movement), how does it determine which Ceph config and keyring to use? 3. Is there any documentation or configuration guidance available on how to tell Cinder which credentials to use when interacting with Glance stores? Any insights or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, Max

Help with vGPU's using an NV L4 card on U24.04 (6.8)
by Tyler Wilson 25 Jun '25

Hello All, I'm trying to get vGPU's to work with openstack and I believe I am almost there, however I can't seem to get them to register to placement. Here is what I have so far OS: Ubuntu 24.04 Kernel: 6.8.0-62-generic Nvidia GRID Version: 570.158.02-570.158.01-573.39 Openstack Deployment: Kolla w/ Docker Openstack Version: 2025.1 I have the SRIOV devices enabled with the systemd service, and can see the vgpu types; # cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:25:00.0/virtfn0/nvidia/creatable_vgpu_types ID : vGPU Name 908 : NVIDIA L4-1B 909 : NVIDIA L4-2B 910 : NVIDIA L4-1Q 911 : NVIDIA L4-2Q 912 : NVIDIA L4-3Q 913 : NVIDIA L4-4Q 914 : NVIDIA L4-6Q 915 : NVIDIA L4-8Q 916 : NVIDIA L4-12Q 917 : NVIDIA L4-24Q 918 : NVIDIA L4-1A 919 : NVIDIA L4-2A 920 : NVIDIA L4-3A 921 : NVIDIA L4-4A 922 : NVIDIA L4-6A 923 : NVIDIA L4-8A 924 : NVIDIA L4-12A 925 : NVIDIA L4-24A My kolla node nova custom config (for nova-compute) is [DEFAULT] debug = true verbose = true [devices] enabled_mdev_types = nvidia-918 [mdev_nvidia-918] max_instances = 8 [libvirt] live_migration_downtime = 500000 live_migration_downtime_steps = 3 live_migration_downtime_delay = 3 I've also created flavors, classes, and traits with; openstack flavor create l4-1a --ram 8192 --disk 40 --vcpus 4 openstack flavor set l4-1a --property "resources:VGPU=1" --property "trait:CUSTOM_NVIDIA_918=required" openstack resource class create CUSTOM_NVIDIA_918 openstack trait create CUSTOM_NVIDIA_918 However I can't seem to get placement to show any vGPU's or any of the traits I registered: This just has an empty line # openstack allocation candidate list --resource VGPU=1 and this will just show the standard vCPU/Memory/Disk # openstack resource provider inventory list <Host UUID> Have I missed a step somewhere, do I need to prepare the devices further before nova can pick them up? Thanks for any and all help!

[neutron] [openvswitch] Outage problem while upgrading openvswitch
by İzzettin Erdem 25 Jun '25

25 Jun '25

Hello, We have a kolla-ansible yoga environment with 9 controller nodes and more than 1000 compute nodes. When I upgrade neutron and openvswitch to a newer version (doesn't matter which, in my case Antelope) access to all virtual machines is lost, but if there are existing ping flows, new ones are not created. This continues until openvswitch deploy is completed, i.e. neutron_openvswitch restart. In some cases, the access outage can be prolonged. When I send an upgrade to neutron alone, I don't experience any outage. How can I prevent this, is there a way to send a hot-upgrade to neutron&openvswitch without any outage? Or is it normal to have an outage?

[neutron] Disable fullstack CI job
by Rodolfo Alonso Hernandez 25 Jun '25

25 Jun '25

Hello Neutrinos: As commented yesterday in the Neutron meeting [1], the "fullstack" CI is blocking the eventlet removal. This CI FW is also blocking the SDK migration [2]. The refactor of this CI is now not possible due to time constraints. Because of this, we are going to disable it and migrate the tests implemented to other FWs, if possible. The coverage of this CI is important but limited. The advantage of this FW is the possibility of, for example, restarting services or agents; this is something achieved by other FWs like "tobiko". Another advantage is the possibility of testing with different configurations, but that could also be achieved by using the same CI job with different static configurations; it is also possible to change the API configuration and restart it using "whitebox-neutron-tempest-plugin". I've created a bug to track these efforts [3]. In the next few hours I'll send a patch to remove the "fullstack" FW from our CI. Regards. [1] https://meetings.opendev.org/meetings/networking/2025/networking.2025-06-24… [2]https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/neutron/+/947851 [3]https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2115327

[ironic]SSH login failure to baremetal instance deployed by ironic
by Junya Noguchi (Fujitsu) 24 Jun '25

24 Jun '25

To whom it may concern I failed to SSH into a baremetal instance deployed by Ironic. I deployed the baremetal instance using an OS image created for Ironic by Diskimage-builder. When I tried to SSH into the instance, the connection was refused due to a "Permission denied" error. [aaaaaaaa@localhost ~]$ ssh -i .ssh/key.pem cloud-user(a)xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx cloud-user(a)xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx's password: Permission denied, please try again. cloud-user(a)xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx's password: Permission denied, please try again. cloud-user(a)xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx's password: cloud-user(a)xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx: Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,password).

Custom Role Configuration for Admin Activities in OpenStack
by Thamanna Farhath 24 Jun '25

24 Jun '25

Hi Team, As part of enhancing our OpenStack RBAC policy management, we are in the process of setting up custom roles for various admin-related activities. Custom Roles Used: admin_instance_read,admin_volume_read,admin_network_read,admin_glance_read Policy Customizations: # Compute - List all instances across tenants "os_compute_api:servers:index:get_all_tenants": "rule:context_is_admin or role:admin_instance_read" "os_compute_api:servers:detail:get_all_tenants": "rule:context_is_admin or role:admin_instance_read" # Network - Get networks (shared/external/own project) "get_network": "(rule:admin_only) or (role:reader and project_id:%(project_id)s) or rule:shared or rule:external or rule:context_is_advsvc or role:admin_network_read" # Volume - List all volumes and snapshots across projects "volume:get_all": "rule:xena_system_admin_or_project_reader or role:admin_volume_read" "volume:get_all_snapshots": "rule:xena_system_admin_or_project_reader or role:admin_volume_read" # Image - List all images including shared/community/public "get_image": "role:admin or (role:reader and project_id:%(project_id)s) or project_id:%(member_id)s or 'community':%(visibility)s or 'public':%(visibility)s or 'shared':%(visibility)s or role:admin_glance_read" "get_images": "role:admin or (role:reader and project_id:%(project_id)s) or role:admin_glance_read" Issue: Despite the above configurations, listing all instances, images, volumes, and networks across all projects still only works for the admin role. The custom roles (e.g., admin_instance_read, etc.) are not taking effect for cross-project visibility as expected. Request: I would appreciate any suggestions or insights on: Whether additional policy bindings or role scopes are required. If any service-specific constraints might be overriding the custom roles. Any known limitations regarding get_all_tenants behavior with custom roles.

[nova] Information Sharing for Arm CCA Feature (Following 4/8 PTG)
by taketani.ryo＠fujitsu.com 23 Jun '25

23 Jun '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?

[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2025.2/R-14)
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 23 Jun '25

23 Jun '25

Hello Stackers, We're fourteen weeks away from the coordinated 2025.2 "Flamingo" release of OpenStack [1], and Milestone-2 for this release is on 2025-07-03. In the past week, the Call for Papers for the upcoming OpenInfra Summit in Paris-Saclay ended; however, the deadline to propose Forum sessions and Project Updates sessions is 2025-07-08 at 23:59 PST [2]. This time at the summit, there's also a "New Contributor Showcase" inviting presentations on projects that leverage or support open infrastructure. Whether it’s your first contribution, an open source tool, or a collaboration with a community, we want to hear about it, so please consider applying [3]. In the past week, the OpenStack Technical Committee did not merge any new governance changes. A few change proposals are open for the community's input. OpenDev Infra administrators and OpenStack's Release Management team have posted several changes to begin enforcing the Developer Certificate of Origin in lieu of the Contributor License Agreement from July 1, 2025 [4]. If you haven't already begun using "git commit -s" to sign off your commits in adherence to the DCO, please do so. As a reminder, from July 1st, OpenDev's Gerrit system (https://review.opendev.org) will reject any changes that do not include a "Signed-off-by" line in the commit message. Simultaneously, the existing CLAs will no longer be available for new contributors to sign. === Weekly Meeting === The OpenStack Technical Committee met on OFTC's #openstack-tc channel on 2025-06-17 [5]. The team confirmed plans to transition to DCO (Developer Certificate of Origin) by July 1st, approving updates to the contributor guide and discussing the ongoing process of integrating DCO across tools and translations. We then focused on improving the contributor experience, with analyses of review metrics being shared with various project teams like Nova and Cinder through weekly IRC meetings. This data collection aims to identify pain points and best practices to inform future strategies. We plan to drive collective attention to this effort during the PTG in October. We also discussed the level of activity in the Cyborg project. We have had issues contacting the core maintainers to get some critical fixes merged, and the TC agreed to begin the process to mark the project "inactive." This decision aligns with the upcoming M-2 release deadline. The discussion also prompted a health check on several project teams. We'll be discussing this in further detail on proposals directly on Gerrit, or in a future weekly meeting. OpenDev Infra administrators completed a transition from Nodepool to Zuul-launcher and pleasantly have not seen any negative impact on the CI. During an Open Discussion, concerns were raised about the timeline specified by the Eventlet Removal TC goal [6]. Nova maintainers, in particular, expressed the need for more time to ensure a stable transition to threading and adequate operator testing, suggesting a revised target of 2028.1 for full Eventlet removal, a point that will be further debated on the mailing list [7] and a Gerrit proposal [8]. The next meeting of the OpenStack Technical Committee is on 2025-06-24. It will be hosted over IRC in OFTC's #openstack-tc channel at 1700 UTC. Please find the agenda and other details on the meeting's wiki page [9]. I hope you'll be able to join us. === Governance Proposals === ==== Open for review ==== - Require declaration of affiliation from TC Candidates | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/949432 - Make Eventlet removal deadlines more acceptable for operators | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/952903 - Mark Cyborg inactive | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/952798 === Upcoming Events === - 2025-06-28: OpenInfra+Cloud Native Day, Vietnam: https://www.vietopeninfra.org/void2025 - 2025-07-03: OpenStack's 15th Birthday, Colombia User Group: https://www.meetup.com/colombia-openinfra-user-group/events/308383244 - 2025-07-08: OpenInfra Board meeting: https://board.openinfra.org/ - 2025-07-19: OpenInfra Days, Indonesia: https://2025.openinfra.id/ Thank you very much for reading!

Inquiry on Integrating Ansible with Vendor-Specific Cinder Driver Code
by Sumit Gupta 21 Jun '25

21 Jun '25

Hello Moderators, We maintain a substantial body of open-source Ansible code (certified by Red Hat as a collection) for IBM Storage Virtualize, which we believe could directly benefit the Cinder driver roadmap. I’d like to understand whether it is technically and architecturally acceptable to invoke Ansible scripts from within a vendor-specific Cinder driver. Specifically: * Are there any guidelines or constraints on integrating external automation tools (like Ansible) within a Cinder driver implementation? * Is there any official documentation on the acceptance of such cross-language or framework integrations (e.g., calling Ansible from Python)? Your guidance would be greatly appreciated to ensure any contributions align with community standards and best practices. Thank you! Sumit K Gupta sumit.gupta16(a)ibm.com Senior Storage Leader, IBM

[eventlet-removal]When to drop eventlet support
by Balazs Gibizer 19 Jun '25

19 Jun '25

Hi Stackers! I would like to sync about the planned timeline of dropping eventlet support from OpenStack / Oslo. Nova definitely needs at least the full 2026.1 cycle to have a chance to transform the nova-compute service. But this plan already feels stretched based on the progress in the current cycle. So being conservative means we need the 2026.2 cycle as a buffer. Nova would like to keep a release where we support both eventlet and threading in parallel. So that operators can do the switching from eventlet to threading outside of the upgrade procedure. (This was an explicit request from them during the PTG). So 2026.2 could be that version where nova fully supports both concurrency mode, while eventlet can be marked deprecated. Then the 2027.1 release could be the first release dropping eventlet. However we need to align with the SLURP upgrade as well. 2026.1 is a SLURP. But in that release Nova might not be ready to have all services running in threading mode. So the 2026.1 - 2027.1 SLURP upgrade would force the operators to change the concurrency mode during the upgrade itself. I see two ways forward: * A) We say that operators who want to do the concurrency mode change outside of an upgrade could not skip the 2026.2 release, i.e. they cannot do SLURP directly from 2026.1. to 2027.1. * B) We keep supporting the eventlet mode in the 2027.1 release as well and only dropping support in 2028.1. What do you think? Cheers gibi

[Cinder] SystemReader & all_tenants filter issue
by skryhin＠godaddy.com 19 Jun '25

19 Jun '25

Hey Cinder team, We're running into a problem where our SystemReader role can't use the all_tenants filter when listing Cinder volumes (e.g., via `openstack volume list --all-projects`). The filter is getting stripped at the API layer here<https://github.com/openstack/cinder/blob/stable/2024.1/cinder/volume/api.py…>. This is a blocker for auditability and integrating with third-party CMDB systems, as granting full admin access for these tools isn't a secure option. We’ve seen similar functionality handled in other services like Nova (e.g., `os_compute_api:servers:index:get_all_tenants` for SystemReader), as well as in Keystone and Neutron via policy tuning. Is there a particular reason this pattern hasn’t been implemented yet in Cinder? And would it make sense to consider making this configurable via the `volume:get_all_tenants_filter` policy rule? Appreciate any insights! Best regards, Serhii K.

The Placement API endpoint was not found
by mitku.bade＠mitm-tech.com 18 Jun '25

18 Jun '25

I was trying to setup a three node (controller, compute, and neutron)openstack environment manually using ubuntu 22.04 and the openstack caracal 2024.1 release. Every instance that I have created went into cell0 ,while I expect it to went into cell1 .Plus, the cells and the hots mapping are correctly configured and are working without error .But, I face an error which related to the Placement API endpoint. Running nova-status upgrade check returns the Placement API with Failure , while the other checks such as cellV2 are successful. Also running the nova-scheduler log returns The placement API endpoint was not found :keystoneauth1.exceptions.catalog.endpointnotfound:couldnot find the requested endpoint in service catalog. I validated the [placement],[keystone_Authtoken],[DEFAULT]],[database] settings, the endpoint,service,role of placement to be correct .It has been many days .Any one to stretch his/her support on this ?

VMware Migration Guide - It’s LIVE!
by Kendall Nelson 18 Jun '25

18 Jun '25

Hello Everyone, Over the last few months, the VMware Working Group has been hard at work crafting a more in depth, detailed follow up to the initial VMware Migration Whitepaper. The goal of this follow up effort is to do a deeper dive into what migration away from VMware to OpenStack could look like, the considerations, the benefits, the key pieces that OpenStack offers to meet the needs of the workloads being migrated, etc. I am pleased to announce the VMware Migration Guide <https://www.openstack.org/vmware-migration-to-openstack/vmware-to-openstack…> ! Please feel free to share this document with the larger industry, future or present customers, and anyone else looking to learn more about what it means to migrate from VMware to OpenStack. We, the working group, really hope that this resource will provide all of the answers to common questions (and more!) about the migration process and help sustain this huge resurgence of OpenStack. Additionally, we’ll be putting together a series of Superuser posts on case studies around VMware migration. If you or your company have not already submitted one, now is the time! You can send them to kendall(a)openinfra.dev! Thank you to the VMware Working Group for all of the hard work, expertise, and knowledge shared to put together this HUGE achievement. -- Kendall Nelson *Senior Upstream Developer Advocate* The OpenInfra Foundation <https://openinfra.dev/>

[cinder] Unexpected Ceph RBD snapshot retention behavior when deleting image-based volumes
by Rocha Lobo, Vinicius 18 Jun '25

18 Jun '25

Hi, OpenStack Community. I'm part of the StarlingX Community and our starlingx-openstack distribution is currently delivering the 2024.1 (Caracal) release. We are facing an issue when using Cinder with the Ceph RBD backend: volumes created from Glance images leave behind protected snapshots and *.deleted volumes in the cinder-volumes pool after deletion, and these remnants are not being cleaned up automatically, even though I’ve enabled deferred deletion and garbage collection. So, I'm writing this email to explain our current issue and get feedback on this new Launchpad [1] I’m creating for Cinder. Environment: * OpenStack version: 2024.1 (Caracal) * Ceph version: Reef * Cinder configuration (via Helm override): conf: cinder: backend_defaults: rbd_flatten_volume_from_snapshot: True enable_deferred_deletion: True deferred_deletion_purge_interval: 10 ceph: image_volume_cache_enabled: False Issue description: 1) Create volume(s) from an image: * openstack volume create --image <image_id> --size 100 volume-test 2) Cinder creates a protected snapshot of the source image and then clones from it (as expected due to Ceph’s requirement for protected snapshots when cloning). 3) Delete the volume(s) via OpenStack CLI: * openstack volume delete volume-test After the deletion the corresponding RBD image and its snapshot are not cleaned up: * rbd -p cinder-volumes ls -l NAME SIZE PARENT FMT PROT LOCK <uuid>.deleted 100 GiB 2 <uuid>.deleted@<clone_snap>.clone_snap 1 GiB 2 yes... Even with the garbage collection features enabled (enable_deferred_deletion, rbd_flatten_volume_from_snapshot, and deferred_deletion_purge_interval), these protected snapshots and deleted volumes persist indefinitely, unless I clean them manually: * rbd snap unprotect <volume>.deleted@<snapshot> -p cinder-volumes * rbd snap rm <volume>.deleted@<snapshot> -p cinder-volumes * rbd rm <volume>.deleted -p cinder-volumes Here’s the logs that cinder pod shows while trying to delete the volume each 10 seconds: 2025-05-28 19:44:48.079 8 INFO cinder.volume.drivers.rbd [-] Purging trash for backend 'ceph-store' 2025-05-28 19:44:58.076 8 INFO cinder.volume.drivers.rbd [-] Purging trash for backend 'ceph-store' 2025-05-28 19:45:08.081 8 INFO cinder.volume.drivers.rbd [-] Purging trash for backend 'ceph-store' Questions: * Is this behavior expected in Cinder/CEPH integrations? * Shouldn't Cinder unprotect/delete the snapshot when the last volume, depending on how it is removed? Any insights or best practices would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Vinicius Lobo StarlingX contributor [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/2114853

[all][tc][cyborg] Call for cyborg project maintainers
by Ghanshyam Maan 17 Jun '25

17 Jun '25

Hello Everyone, Cyborg project is lacking the active maintenance. The gate is broken, no response on the fix[1]. Two weeks ago, Sean raised the conern to ML[2] but there is no response from current core. We discussed it in TC meeting (last week[3] and today[4]) and as per foundation staff reachout, the next step is to call for new maintainers. If anyone using or interested to maintain it then this is right time to step up. Also, I would like existing maintainers (first of all, thanks for maintaining it till now) to give more insight about project status and their bandwidth which can help new maintainers to onboard. As per TC process to check project status, I have proposed to mark cyborg as inactive[5], feel free to provide your opinion here or in gerrit. If we do not hear back and mark project Inactive, there will be no cyborg project deliverables release in this cycle.

Nova bug report #2114855
by Vicentini Fracarolli, Joao 17 Jun '25

17 Jun '25

Hello OpenStack Community, I'm part of the StarlingX Community and our starlingx-openstack distribution is currently delivering the 2024.1 (Caracal) release. We were exploring the openstack-client "server rebuild" feature [1], and we might have found a bug. So, I'm writing this email to explain our current issue and get feedback on this new Launchpad we are creating for the Nova component https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2114855 [2]. It happened in the following scenario: * Create a VM with some small disk flavor and a small image. For example, using a flavor of 1 GB with the Cirros image (~ 21 MB of disk size). * Try to rebuild the VM using a new image. Example: the ubuntu-jammy qcow image. When the steps above are executed with an image with a disk size greater than the flavor size, the Nova API returns an error and the VM is not rebuilt: Flavor's disk is too small for requested image. Flavor disk is 1073741824 bytes, image is 1283063808 bytes. (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-7db974bb-15f3-425f-b97b-98b789b7e10f) But when we use an image with a disk size smaller than the flavor disk size, but with a virtual size bigger than the flavor disk size, Nova will try to rebuild the VM and fail: the VM state will be ERROR. It looks like the Nova API is accepting such rebuild requests, but when Nova Compute checks for virtual size, it fails. Is that expected behavior? Shouldn't the Nova API reject the request with an explicit warning telling the user to resize the VM before trying to rebuild? Thank you very much [1] https://docs.openstack.org/python-openstackclient/latest/cli/command-object… [2]https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2114855 Bug #2114855 “VM rebuild starts even if image virtual size is gr...” : Bugs : OpenStack Compute (nova)<https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2114855> Description =========== Openstackclient + Nova API accept to rebuild server with virtual size greater than the specified flavor’s disk size.

[nova] multiple pci types with same address
by Arnaud Morin 17 Jun '25

17 Jun '25

Hello nova team, Quick question regarding support for multiple types (see [1]) with the same address: {vendor_id: "10de", product_id: "233b", "address": "00000000:03:00.0", "resource_class": "CUSTOM_H200_A"} {vendor_id: "10de", product_id: "233b", "address": "00000000:04:00.0", "resource_class": "CUSTOM_H200_A"} {vendor_id: "10de", product_id: "233b", "address": "00000000:44:00.0", "resource_class": "CUSTOM_H200_A"} {vendor_id: "10de", product_id: "233b", "address": "00000000:45:00.0", "resource_class": "CUSTOM_H200_A"} {vendor_id: "10de", product_id: "233b", "address": "00000000:83:00.0", "resource_class": "CUSTOM_H200_B"} {vendor_id: "10de", product_id: "233b", "address": "00000000:84:00.0", "resource_class": "CUSTOM_H200_B"} {vendor_id: "10de", product_id: "233b", "address": "00000000:C3:00.0", "resource_class": "CUSTOM_H200_B"} {vendor_id: "10de", product_id: "233b", "address": "00000000:C4:00.0", "resource_class": "CUSTOM_H200_B"} This works fine, I was able to define multiple aliases: {name: "h200a", device_type:"type-PF", resource_class: "CUSTOM_H200_A"} {name: "h200b", device_type:"type-PF", resource_class: "CUSTOM_H200_B"} I did that to create two blocks of 4 resources (A or B). But now, I need to create a flavor to boot instances with these devices. I want to have only one flavor that can use either A or B: For now I created a flavor with: pci_passthrough:alias='h200a:4' And was forced to create a second flavor with h200b:4. Is there any way to achieve a single flavor with both: Something like this? pci_passthrough:alias='h200a:4|h200b:4' I can't figure that out for now, is it possible?

[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2025.2/R-15)
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 16 Jun '25

16 Jun '25

Hello Stackers, We're fifteen weeks away from the coordinated 2025.2 "Flamingo" release of OpenStack [1]. Milestone-2 is in a couple of weeks. This milestone is observed by several project teams for bug targeting. From the point of view of OpenStack's governance, this milestone serves as a point where we vet project deliverables to be included in the coordinated release. Releases are not tagged for deliverables from project teams that are deemed "inactive" [2]. In OpenStack, a project team is considered "inactive" when it no longer has regular contributor engagement or ongoing development. This often reflects that the problem the project once addressed is now being solved more effectively by another solution—either within or outside OpenStack. Inactivity isn't a failure, but rather a natural sign of how technology needs evolve over time. Any community member can propose a change to mark a project team inactive prior to Milestone-2. Doing so will prevent shipping broken or unmaintained code. In the past week, the OpenStack Technical Committee did not make any new governance changes. The team's focus has been on the implementation of the DCO by our deadline of 2025-07-01. I'd like to gently remind you that beyond July 1st, changes without a "Signed-off-by" line in the commit message cannot be uploaded to Gerrit. If you have a project team meeting before this date, please let folks know about this change. === Weekly Meeting === The last weekly meeting of the TC was held over IRC on OFTC's #openstack-tc channel on Tuesday, 2025-06-10 [3]. The main focus of the meeting was tracking all the changes necessary for enforcing the Developer Certificate of Origin in lieu of the ICLA beginning on 2025-07-01 [4]. We noted changes to various infrastructure pieces, and while we're hoping for a smooth transition, we do anticipate some hiccups. We are hoping for the community's patience and cooperation as we iron out the kinks. Further, concerns were raised about the Cyborg project's apparent inactivity. The last change merged into Cyborg was over two months ago, and a critical CI fix remains open, lacking review attention. Efforts to engage the team via the mailing list have not yielded any response, and there is no recent activity on IRC or Gerrit. While it's known that the Cyborg team has historically preferred WeChat/Weixin for communication, relying on unofficial channels or Foundation staff for outreach isn’t sustainable. The TC agreed that it’s important to determine whether the project is defunct or simply in need of new leadership, and to encourage maintainers to monitor and respond through community channels. Additionally, a self-report from the Vitrage team indicated that Tempest tests are currently failing due to a lack of contributor time this cycle. With the M-2 milestone deadline approaching on July 3rd, we emphasized the importance of project teams providing accurate and timely updates to the release team. The next meeting of the OpenStack TC is today, 2025-06-17. It'll be held over IRC in OFTC's #openstack-tc channel at 1700 UTC. Please find the agenda on the meeting's wiki page [5]. I hope you'll be able to join us. === Governance Proposals === ==== Open for review ==== - Require declaration of affiliation from TC Candidates | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/949432 === Upcoming Events === - 2025-07-03: OpenStack's 15th Birthday, Colombia User Group: https://www.meetup.com/colombia-openinfra-user-group/events/308383244 - 2025-06-28: OpenInfra+Cloud Native Day, Vietnam: https://www.vietopeninfra.org/void2025 - 2025-07-19: OpenInfra Days, Indonesia: https://2025.openinfra.id/ === How to Contact the TC === You can reach the TC in several ways: - Email: Send an email with the tag [tc] on this mailing list. - IRC: Ping us using the tc-members keyword on the #openstack-tc IRC channel on OFTC. - Meeting: Join us at our weekly meeting. The Technical Committee meets every week on Tuesdays at 1700 UTC [4]. Thank you very much for reading!
