[Neutron] VPNaaS one to many subnets
by Robert N 23 Jan '26

23 Jan '26

Dear Community, I'm trying to configure VPNaaS between 2 sites, both sites have one openstack subnet with 2 networks. left side. subnet 192.168.0.0/24 gw 192.168.0.1 subnet 172.0.0.0/16 - the scope for this is just local network, it doesn't have to be routed outside. this subnet is broke into /24 subnets and assigned to differnt nodes on the network, and they are reachable with explicit routes on the router. It's basically a kubernetes pod network, and the routes are managed by openstack-cloud-controller-manager. right side subnet 192.168.1.0/24 gw 192.168.1.1 subnet 172.1.0.0/16 I need connectivity between the 2 sites on both layers 192.... and 172... so I tried to endpoint groups, a local of type subnet and a peer of type cidr with the cidrs `192.168.0.0/24,172.0.0.0/16` and respectively ` 192.168.1.0/24,172.1.0.0/16`. With this setup the vpn connection doesn't come up. If I create the peer cidr with only one cidr `192.168.0.0/24` and respectively `192.168.1.0/24` the vpn connection becomes active and works as expected for the 192... netowrks. I tried adding manually the routes for the 172.0.0.0/16 on one side and 172.1.0.0/16 o the other side with to the same gateway `169.254.0.2` but it doesn't work. I'm wondering how could I configure the VPN to have both networks routed 192... and 172... Appreciating any input on the topic. Cheers, Robert

[kolla] Dropping support for building and deploying InfluxDB
by Michał Nasiadka 22 Jan '26

22 Jan '26

Hello Koalas, Kolla project plans to drop support for InfluxDB, given that current version supported by the project is v1, which is in End of Life state. We haven’t seen any interest in introducing v2 support and given that the core team also has no interest in doing that - we’re dropping support. See https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22kolla_drop_influxdb%22 Michal

[dev][nova] Intel TDX support
by Anton Iacobaeus 21 Jan '26

21 Jan '26

Hi, I work with confidential computing and has previously contributed to Proxmox [1] to enable support for Intel TDX. I am looking to do the same for Openstack Nova. I have proposed a blueprint [2] and am drafting a spec with target for 2026.2 release. From what I gather, support for AMD SEV and SEV-ES is already implemented in Nova, while SEV-SNP support is ongoing. TDX shares some commonalities with SEV-SNP, and I believe that the work on both can be conducted in tandem. I also have experience with SEV-SNP and am happy to contribute if needed. Early feedback or any concerns and guidance are very welcome!

[all][oslo][cinder][glance][nova][sdk][trove] Upcoming migration of whereto to PCRE2
by Takashi Kajinami 21 Jan '26

21 Jan '26

Hi ! I'm sending this email so that you'd be aware of an upcoming breaking change in the whereto library, because you might need to update your projects (especially their bindep.txt files) to adopt your projects to the change. The whereto library is a tiny library to generate redirect rules in Apache and has been used in documentation build in several projects. This library has been dependent on python-pcre, which requires the following packages. - libpcre3-dev in Debian-based operating systems (such as Debian or Ubuntu) - pcre-devel in RHEL-based operating systems (such as RHEL or CentOS Stream) However these packages are no longer provided by newer operating systems and we have to replace these by PCRE 2. - Debian removed libpcre3-dev because PCRE 3 is obsolete and it is recommended to replace it by PCRE 2 [1]. - RHEL 10 removed PCRE and PCRE 2 is a recommended replacement. I've already proposed the change[1] of whereto to replace python-pcre by pcre2 (which requires pcre2 packages from OS). I'll create a new release of whereto shortly after this change is merged. Once the new release hits the upper constraints, libpcre3-dev and pcre-devel in bindep.txt in each repository should be replaced. See [3] to learn how the change should look like. So far I'm planning to take care of this transition, but it'd be nice if I can ask for some attention about it. Please let me know if you have any question. Thank you, Takashi [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2021/11/msg00176.html [2] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/whereto/+/970061 [3] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/whereto/+/970061/4/bindep.txt -- Takashi Kajinami irc: tkajinam github: https://github.com/kajinamit launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~kajinamit

[tc][ops] Any consensus for what's next after uWSGI ?
by opensource＠rfc2549.ca 20 Jan '26

20 Jan '26

Hi, This thread from 2023 generated some discussion around uWSGI being in maintenance mode but my search doesn't yield more recent developments around $topic. uWSGI is still in maintenance mode 3 years later. Back at the Epoxy PTG, openstack-ansible had a topic [1] to figure a replacement but after checking with Dimitri, this has not happened yet and they are still relying on uWSGI at this time. I was curious if the community had opinions on what the next "standard" wsgi runtime might be from options like gunicorn, uvicorn or granian, to name a few. I realize this is not so much a problem for individual OpenStack projects but like mentioned in [0], it is much nicer if any of the options are well supported/documented from an operator perspective. Thanks ! [0]: https://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2023-February/03234… [1]: https://lists.openstack.org/archives/list/openstack-discuss@lists.openstack…

[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2026.1/R-10)
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 19 Jan '26

19 Jan '26

Hello Stackers, We're 10 weeks away from the date of the coordinated release of OpenStack 2026.1 "Gazpacho" [1]. Now that we're past milestone-2 of this release cycle, project teams are actively reviewing implementation patches for specifications. The next project-wide deadline is the feature freeze (February 26, 2026), but please consult the release calendar to see project-specific deadlines in the interim. In the past week, the OpenStack Technical Committee reprised a weekly meeting after a month and caught up on several ongoing governance concerns. The governance of the "keystoneauth" repository was moved from the Keystone project team to the OpenStackSDK project team where we think it will see better reviewer attention. Apart from that, there are several open governance proposals that are being reviewed by the community. === Weekly Meeting === The OpenStack TC met over IRC on January 13th 2026 on the #openstack-tc channel on OFTC to kick off the year by synchronizing on several high-level initiatives [2]. This includes the transition to the 2026.2 "Hibiscus" release cycle and aligning our technical efforts with the Foundation's upcoming marketing themes [3] and the "Next Level" board goals [4]. We also discussed the immediate sunsetting of Bitergia dashboards [5]. As we transition to LFX, the committee spoke about the importance of project metrics such as review participation and merge timelines. Programmatically graphing this sort of information needs context-awareness and the dashboards must not rely on inaccurate assumptions about contributors' email addresses, working hours or time zones. We reiterated a critical resource gap within the Ansible SIG. The openstack.cloud collection remains a dependency for official projects like OpenStack-Ansible and Kolla, yet it currently lacks sufficient review bandwidth; we are looking for volunteers to help sustain this deliverable. Finally, we discussed the effort to support AlmaLinux on non-v3 x86 processors to maximize hardware reuse; while we have immediate workarounds for DevStack, we are seeking a native OVN package build on this platform. The next meeting of the OpenStack TC is today, January 20th 2026 at 0800 UTC. Please note this earlier time; it accommodates our APAC colleagues. The meeting will be hosted on the #openstack-tc channel on OFTC and the agenda is available on the meeting's wiki page [6]. I hope you'll be able to join us there. === Governance Proposals === ==== Merged ==== - Move keystoneauth under OpenStackSDK governance | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/971178 ==== Open For Review ==== - Revive os_freezer role for OSA | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/973364 - Revive os_watcher role for OSA | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/973385 - Remove rbd-iscsi-client from release management | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/972316 - Remove barbican-ui from release management | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/972315 - Move FIPS Compliance goal back to proposed | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/969145 === Upcoming Events === - 2026-01-27: OpenInfra Board Meeting: https://board.openinfra.org/ - 2026-01-31: FOSDEM 2026: https://www.meetup.com/brussels-openinfra-meetup-group/events/312867974 - 2026-02-26: 2026.1 "Gazpacho" Feature Freeze / Milestone 3 Thank you very much for reading!
