[all] No documentation for the API wsgi entry point of project APIs
by Thomas Goirand 13 Sep '25

13 Sep '25

Hi, As we're supposed to move away from uwsgi's config: wsgi-script=/usr/bin/<something> I'm switching all (-most every) Debian package to: module=<something-else> in the shipped <project>-api-uwsgi.ini file. In some case, that's fine, the release note tells where to find it. However, in a general way, it's documented nowhere but in the release note. In some cases, like for Magnum, the release note only tells that the wsgi-script is deprecated, without even telling to what I should switch. I've double-guessed that it should be: magnum.wsgi.api:application as this is what devstack/lib/magnum is doing. But I'm not sure, and I'll have to check for that fact after my package is built. Someone told me on IRC that I was right, and that this path is probably the "standard" for all projects. One shouldn't have to hunt for this kind of information. Could we agree on a *STANDARD* way to document this in every project? Or at least document somewhere OpenStack wide, that the standard path *must* be: magnum.wsgi.api:application and that distros and operators should expect it? Or is it that I missed the information and that's already documented? If that's the case, where is it? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

[masakari]HACluster Containers Failing
by Thamanna Farhath 13 Sep '25

13 Sep '25

Hi OpenStack Community, I have installed *Masakari* using Kolla-Ansible, and after that I also installed *HACluster*. However, the HACluster containers are failing and keep exiting. Setup: - 3 controller nodes - Multiple compute nodes - Deployment: Kolla-Ansible My questions are: 1. Do I really need Masakari together with HACluster for instance HA? 2. Is there an alternative or recommended way to deploy HACluster with Kolla-Ansible? 3. Has anyone faced the issue where HACluster containers keep exiting after deployment? Any guidance, troubleshooting tips, or experiences would be very helpful Thanks, Thamanna Farhath N Disclaimer : The content of this email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to which they are addressed.

[release] Release countdown for week R-2
by Thierry Carrez 12 Sep '25

12 Sep '25

Development Focus ----------------- At this point we should have release candidates (RC1 or recent intermediary release) for (almost) all the 2025.2 "Flamingo" deliverables. Teams should be working on any release-critical bugs that would require another RC or intermediary release before the final release. Actions ------- Early in the week, the release team will be proposing stable/2025.2 branch creation for all deliverables that have not branched yet, using the latest available 2025.2 "Flamingo" release as the branch point. If your team is ready to go for creating that branch, please let us know by leaving a +1 on these patches. If you would like to wait for another release before branching, you can -1 the patch and update it later in the week with the new release you would like to use. By the end of the week the release team will merge those patches though, unless an exception is granted. Once stable/2025.2 branches are created, if a release-critical bug is detected, you will need to fix the issue in the master branch first, then backport the fix to the stable/2025.2 branch before releasing out of the stable/2025.2 branch. After all of the cycle-with-rc projects have branched we will branch devstack, grenade, and the requirements repos. This will effectively open them up for 2026.1 "Gazpacho" development, though the focus should still be on finishing up 2025.2 "Flamingo" until the final release. Opening up the new development cycle is also a good opportunity to teams to revise their zuul jobs and used nodesets and clean up all unnecessary ones. For projects with translations, watch for any translation patches coming through and merge them quickly. A new release should be produced so that translations are included in the final 2025.2 "Flamingo" release. Finally, now is a good time to finalize release notes. In particular, consider adding any relevant "prelude" content. Release notes are targeted for the downstream consumers of your project, so it would be great to include any useful information for those that are going to pick up and use or deploy the 2025.2 "Flamingo" version of your project. Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Final RC deadline: September 26th, 2025 (R-1 week) Final 2025.2 "Flamingo" release: October 1st, 2025 OpenInfra Summit Europe: October 17th-19th, 2025 -- Thierry Carrez (ttx)

[requirements]Flamingo pyroute2 regression
by Balazs Gibizer 12 Sep '25

12 Sep '25

Hi requirements folks, We identified a bug[1] in pyroute2 0.9.1 that causes intermittent failures during interface attach / detach operations. Originally we got the indication that the pyroute2 0.9.4 fixed the issue and our tests showed green results so we bumped to that version. But since then we observed that the problem still happens in 0.9.4 as well. Can we roll back our pyroute2 dependency to < 0.9 in Flamingo so close to the release? If not, can we later roll back the requirement on stable/2025.2? Or the only way is to roll forward on stable/2025.2 (and on master) when the fix appears in pyroute2? Thanks, gibi [1]https://bugs.launchpad.net/os-vif/+bug/2109396

[nova]Guidance on Instance Migration Issues in Production
by Thamanna Farhath 12 Sep '25

12 Sep '25

Hi All, I’m facing some issues with instance migration in production and need advice: Migrations are taking longer than expected—any tips to handle delays? When the host is fully utilized or overcommit ratio is high, migration sometimes fails with "valid host not found". Are there other common causes? Can we use a separate network interface for migration in OpenStack, and is it recommended? Any guidance or references would be appreciated.

[nova]Hypervisor Data and Overcommit Ratio via API
by Thamanna Farhath 12 Sep '25

Hi All, I noticed a mismatch between hypervisor data shown in Horizon and via the OpenStack API. The API returns original values without calculating the overcommit ratio. Could you advise how to retrieve the effective resources including overcommit ratio via the API?

[cinder]Issue Deleting Volume Snapshots in OpenStack

Hi All, I’m facing an issue when deleting volume snapshots in our OpenStack environment (Kolla-Ansible + Ceph). The snapshots get stuck in error deleting status. Logs show: rbd.PermissionError: [errno 1] RBD permission error (error unprotecting snapshot b'volume-<id>'@b'snapshot-<id>') Could you suggest ways to resolve this or reduce such permission errors during snapshot deletion?

[sdk][requirements] RFE requested for openstacksdk

o/ Per request from elodilles, I'd like to request a Requirements Freeze Exception (RFE) for openstacksdk in order to release [1].
