multi-region deployment
by wodel youchi 23 May '23

23 May '23

Hi, I have been reading about multi-region in openstack. >From my understanding, that keystone and horizon are shared and deployed only in the first region. Is this correct? If yes, what happens if the first region goes down? Regards.

[cinder][dev] Add support in driver - Active/Active High Availability
by U T, Raghavendra 23 May '23

23 May '23

Hi, We wish to add Active/Active High Availability to: 1] HPE 3par driver - cinder/cinder/volume/drivers/hpe/hpe_3par_common.py 2] Nimble driver - cinder/cinder/volume/drivers/hpe/nimble.py Checked documentation at https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/contributor/high_availability.html https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/contributor/high_availability.html… https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/contributor/high_availability.html… Summary of steps: 1] In driver code, set SUPPORTS_ACTIVE_ACTIVE = True 2] Split the method failover_host() into two methods: failover() and failover_completed() 3] In cinder.conf, specify cluster name in [DEFAULT] section cluster = <cluster_name> 4] Configure atleast two nodes in HA and perform testing Is this sufficient or anything else required ? Note: For Nimble driver, replication feature is not yet added. So can the above step 2 be skipped? Appreciate any suggestions / pointers. Regards, Raghavendra Tilay.

by Carlos Silva 23 May '23

Hello, Zorillas and interested stackers! As discussed in the previous week's weekly meeting, we will be starting our hackathon tomorrow, which will be an effort to work on tech debt items [1]. The kick-off meeting will be at 15 UTC in a jitsi bridge [2]. Over tomorrow's meeting, we will be assigning the topics to work on. We can work with small teams or get items to work on things individually. We will use our upstream weekly meeting slot as a checkpoint for the assigned tasks, and the hackathon will run until this Friday (May 26th).

Mixing IDE and VIRTIO volumes
by Work Ceph 23 May '23

23 May '23

Hello guys, We have a situation where an image requires an IDE bus in KVM. Therefore, we configured it in OpenStack to have the IDE bus being used. However, when we add new volumes to this VM (server), all of them are being allocated as IDE volumes; therefore, we are limited to 4 volumes in total in the VM. Is it possible to mix different types of volumes in a VM in OpenStack? I know that in other platforms, such as when we use KVM directly, proxmox, Apache CloudStack, we can do such combinations, but we were not able to achieve it in OpenStack. Have you guys worked with similar use cases? I know that I can convert the image to use virtIO or iSCSI bus, and to do that I need to fix/patch the operating system inside the image. However, I would like to check if there is a method to use a root volume of a VM as IDE, and other volumes as virtio to avoid the limit of volumes that IDE has.

[tc] August 2023 OpenInfra Board Sync
by Jeremy Stanley 23 May '23

23 May '23

The Open Infrastructure Foundation Board of Directors is endeavoring to engage in regular check-ins with official OpenInfra projects. The goal is for a loosely structured discussion one-hour in length, involving members of the board and the OpenStack TC, along with other interested community members. This is not intended to be a formal presentation, and no materials need to be prepared in advance. I've started an Etherpad where participants can brainstorm potential topics of conversation, time-permitting: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/2023-08-board-openstack-sync At the end of the May 10 discussion, we tentatively agreed to schedule the next call for 18:00 UTC on Wednesday, August 9. I've attached a calendar file which can serve as a convenient schedule hold for this, in case anyone needs it. -- Jeremy Stanley

Opentack + FCP Storages
by Jorge Visentini 23 May '23

23 May '23

Hello. Today in our environment we only use FCP 3PAR Storages. Is there a "friendly" way to use FCP Storages with Openstack? I know and I've already tested Ceph, so I can say that it's the best storage integration for Openstack, but it's not my case hehe All the best! -- Att, Jorge Visentini +55 55 98432-9868

Discuss Fix for Bug #2003179
by Saad, Tony 23 May '23

23 May '23

Hello, I am reaching out to start a discussion about Bug #2003179 https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/2003179 The password is getting leaked in plain text from https://opendev.org/openstack/oslo.privsep/src/commit/9c026804de74ae23a60ab…. This logger line does not always contain a password so using mask_password() and mask_dict_password() from https://docs.openstack.org/oslo.utils/latest/reference/strutils.html is probably not the best solution. Anyone have any thoughts on how to stop the password from appearing in plain text? Thanks, Tony Internal Use - Confidential

[ptl][tc] New approach for project update presentations
by Jeremy Stanley 22 May '23

22 May '23

I'm reaching out to you about the video recordings that the OpenInfra Foundation has been collecting to capture a project update from each OpenInfa community (including those for individual OpenStack Project Teams). These videos were previously collected leading up to the OpenInfra Summits to showcase what each project had accomplished in the past year/release. This year we are implementing a change to the cadence of collecting this video content, to better fit with the communities' timeline, milestones and achievements. It will also help us better promote the new content, without it getting lost among the news and buzz around the OpenInfra Summit. Moving forward, OpenStack Project Teams will need to make decisions about items, such as the cadence and format of recording the project updates. Cadence: There are various options to pick from. Teams can define a periodic schedule, or stick to bigger milestones like major releases and project anniversaries. Format: Teams can produce pre-recorded presentations with slide materials, and share that. If enough content and volunteers are available, they could also talk about their latest project news and updates during an OpenInfra Live episode. We will post all recordings on the OpenInfra Foundation YouTube channel and promote them through relevant social media accounts. Timeline: The new process will start after this year's OpenInfra Summit, which will happen on June 13-15 in Vancouver, Canada. After the event, I will reach out to help the Technical Committee and individual teams decide on the above items and take next steps in the process. Please let me know if you have any questions in the meantime. -- Jeremy Stanley on behalf of the OpenInfra Foundation Staff
