Upcoming metrics dashboard changes
by Ildiko Vancsa 21 Apr '26

21 Apr '26

Hi OpenStack community, Since the OpenInfra Foundation joined the Linux Foundation, we have been looking into opportunities to take advantage of the frameworks and tool sets that the Linux Foundation has, and some of you and your organizations are already familiar with. While the dashboards are still being built I would like to let you know that, as part of that effort, we will switch to LFX Insights[1] as the metrics dashboard for OpenInfra projects, including OpenStack, starting on __January 15, 2026.__ A couple things to note: - The new OpenStack metrics dashboard[2] is already available, but it is __still under active construction.__ - The set of metrics that is displayed on the new dashboard will not be identical with the metrics on the dashboard provided by Bitergia. - LFX Insights does not display affiliation information for individuals who are listed on the dashboard as contributors, for privacy reasons. However, if you already have an LF account[3], you will be able to check and update your affiliation information. Or, you can create a new LF account[4]. - You can learn more about the dashboard in the LFX Insights documentation[5]. - If your organization is an OpenInfra Foundation / Linux Foundation member already, the LF Organization Dashboard[6] is also available for a more company-centric view. The OpenStack Bitergia metrics dashboard[7] remains available __until January 14, 2026.__ Please let me know if you have any questions. Best Regards, Ildikö [1] https://insights.linuxfoundation.org/ [2] https://insights.linuxfoundation.org/project/OpenStack/ [3] https://openprofile.dev/ [4] https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/lfx/sso/create-an-account [5] https://insights.linuxfoundation.org/docs/introduction/what-is-insights/ [6] https://lfx.linuxfoundation.org/tools/organization-dashboard/ [7] https://openstack.biterg.io/ ——— Ildikó Váncsa Director of Community OpenInfra Foundation

[zun] Service is broken for 2026.1 with constrained oslo_db
by Dmitriy Rabotyagov 21 Apr '26

21 Apr '26

Hey there, I wanted to let the community know, that Zun service has been released in a broken state for the 2026.1 and is not passing CI tests with constrained version of oslo.db [1], due to reliance on the legacy engine facade, which has been removed from the oslo.db for 2026.1 With that, patch fixing Zun for 2026.1 was published around a month ago, with no reviews from the Zun Core Reviewers group. It would be really appreciated if somebody from the Zun team could have a look at the state of the gates, and merge/backport required patches to ensure working state of the service. Thanks in advance. [1] https://opendev.org/openstack/requirements/src/commit/7e07cb254ee7786723be7… [2] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/zun/+/982362

State of Unified Limits
by Tyler Wilson 21 Apr '26

21 Apr '26

Hello All, I'm looking into possibly utilizing unified limits and have a couple questions. 1. How is the support for unified limits in the major projects? I seem to only see official documented support in Nova at the moment. 2. Is 'strict_two_level' supported currently? This leads me to believe it was never fully finished: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/oslo.limit/+/695527 Thanks for any help you can provide.

[ironic] Proposing Clif Houck as an ironic-reviewer
by Jay Faulkner 20 Apr '26

20 Apr '26

Hey all, I was performing the semi-annual reviewer-review for Ironic projects this cycle, and I have a proposal for an addition to ironic-reviewers group: Clif Houck (also from GR-OSS). Clif was #8 overall this cycle with 54 total reviews. He's also provided valuable feedback with a -1 on a handful of patches already. I'd like to suggest he be granted ironic-reviewer access, as trust him to have discretion to only use the +2 in portions of the codebase he has familiarity in. I will execute this change as soon as Monday of next week if there are no objections. Thanks, Jay Faulkner G-Research Open Source Software

[neutron] Bug deputy April 13 - April 20
by Helen Chen 20 Apr '26

20 Apr '26

Hello Neutrinos, My swag of the list of bugs created during the past week. Unassigned * High: ** ovn_maintenance_worker deleting a healthy router external gw LRP (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148271) Maintenance worker can corrupt a healthy router external gateway and leave floating IPs unusable until operator repair. ** agent status and Chassis not synced (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148316) When a Chassis record is deleted in OVN, the Chassis_Private record is updated with an empty chassis reference rather than being deleted, causing ovn-controller components to be evicted or nodes drained in containerized or cloud-native deployments where . ** [ovn] Infinite retry loop (Cidr 169.254.0.0/28 overlaps) during VPN service creation due to OVSDB race condition (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148650) VPN service with ovn_ipsec driver ends in infinite loop during creation sometimes. * Medium: ** L3 agent does not add fe80::a9fe:a9fe to router namespace for IPv6 metadata (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148649) Metadata agent not available on IPv6. Assigned/In-Progress * High: ** bgp: Agent can't detect a NIC on a BGP bridge (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148246) Fix proposed: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/neutron/+/984555 ** Thread leak in BatchNotifier after eventlet removal (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148712) Appears to be a regression bug. Bug reporter testing a fix. ** ``HA_Chassis_Group`` associated to routers don't have ``external_ids`` (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148804) Fix proposed: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/neutron/+/985363 * Medium: ** Switch neutron-fwaas to use OVO objects (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148390) ** os-ken native hub: spawn_after cancel() is a no-op, breaks LoopingCall timers (https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2148743) Bug reporter suggested a potential workaround, in code. Thanks, Helen

[openstackclient][all] Nova-network removal in OSC
by Brian Haley 20 Apr '26

20 Apr '26

Hi, While doing some other cleanup in the openstackclient network code, I noticed there were still places where it had Nova-network compatibility. I have proposed a patch to remove it all at [0], but Stephen reminded me that there could be users that need this (Rackspace? [1]) and as the client should support all clouds, removing it might break them. From what I can remember it was in the Havana cycle in 2013 that Neutron became the standard and maybe Newton (?) where we started to de-emphasize Nova-network. Is that a long enough time to call something obsolete and remove it? Please respond here or in the review if this is a bad idea, it's currently blocked with a -2 so it doesn't merge. Thanks! -Brian, Neutron PTL [0] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/python-openstackclient/+/981613 [1] https://docs-ospc.rackspace.com/cloud-networks/v2/
