RDO - CentOS Stream version poll - request for volunteers
by Amy Marrich 03 Feb '25

03 Feb '25

The results of the poll showed an interest in having both Stream 9 and 10 versions for the Epoxy release. Due to limited resources, we are looking for volunteers in the community who would be interested in learning to build the RPMs and help maintain them. Please reach out if you are interested in participating in this effort. Amy (spotz)

[ironic]About the OS supported by Diskimage-builder
by Junya Noguchi (Fujitsu) 03 Feb '25

03 Feb '25

To whom it may concern. My name is Junya Noguchi. I have some questions about the supported OS for Diskimage-builder operation. Please respond. References https://docs.openstack.org/ironic-python-agent-builder/latest/admin/dib.html Does it mean that the OS that says "work but receive only limited testing and support" works but is not supported? References https://docs.openstack.org/diskimage-builder/latest/ This document describes RHEL and other operating systems that are not supported in the previous question. Are these operating systems supported? Also, are there any plans to support more operating systems in the future? Best regards, Junya Noguchi

[neutron] neutron-core/networking-ovn-core consolidation
by Brian Haley 03 Feb '25

03 Feb '25

Hello Neutrinos: I noticed the other day we still have the networking-ovn-core group [0] included in the neutron-core group [1], a left-over from when we merged the OVN code into the Neutron repo in Ussuri. Most people in the networking-ovn-core group no longer contribute to Neutron, except for one - Terry Wilson (otherwiseguy). In order to cleanup a little I'm going to consolidate things and add Terry as a member of the neutron-core group, and remove the import. Since he has basically been operating as a Neutron core reviewer already for years, I don't think we need to vote on this. So welcome officially Terry! -Brian, Neutron PTL [0] https://review.opendev.org/admin/groups/ecdeda6cb5657af51f20b282cd0525cb7e6… [1] https://review.opendev.org/admin/groups/38

[glance][security][vmt] propose Cyril Roelandt for glance coresec
by Brian Rosmaita 31 Jan '25

31 Jan '25

I'd like to propose an update to the Glance Core Security Contacts team [0], which handles embargoed security issues for Glance project deliverables. The OpenStack Vulnerability Management Team prefers to keep the project core security teams small (because otherwise it kind of defeats the point of having embargoed private security issues). Thus, the changes I propose will keep the glance-coresec team at its current size: Add: Cyril Roelandt (croelandt on IRC). Cyril has been a Glance core since June 2021 and is a thorough and respected reviewer and developer; he also organizes the recurring Glance Review Party. Remove: Erno Kuvaja (jokke on IRC). Erno has been focusing his time away from Glance. On behalf of the Glance project team, I thank Erno for his past service on glance-coresec, and note that Erno continues to participate in the Glance project as a "regular" glance core. If you have any concerns about this change, please communicate them to me or Pranali Deore (Glance PTL) before 23:59 UTC on Wednesday, 29 January 2025. cheers, brian [0] https://launchpad.net/~glance-coresec

Hi all, I'm running OpenStack 2024.1 Caracal, configured through Puppet, and I'm having an issue with Manila. /etc/manila/manila.conf contains the line "driver_handles_share_servers = True", but setup fails, "/var/log/manila/share.log" reports that "Config opt 'driver_handles_share_servers' has improper value - 'None'. Please define it as boolean." Has anyone encountered this? Where else should I define this?

[all] Is oslo.vmware still relevant?
by Herve Beraud 31 Jan '25

31 Jan '25

Hey folks, I observed that oslo.vmware has not received any significant modifications since almost 4 years ago [1]. The only changes proposed to oslo.vmware since a while are just related to infra changes (python versions, tox versions, etc...). Due to the recent news about vmware [2], I wonder if oslo.vmware is still a relevant library in our context and I wonder if it is worth spending time on maintaining it. Do you think we should deprecate and retire this library? Thanks in advance for your opinions.

OS-EXT-SRV-ATTR incomplete in compute api
by Jan 30 Jan '25

30 Jan '25

Hi, is there a reason why some member variables of the nova instance object are returned by the api and some not. For example the "os_type" value is not returned but the "kernel_id" (OS-EXT-SRV-ATTR:kernel_id) is. I have a use case where it would be very helpful to get the "os_type" via the api and python sdk. Is there a chance that a patch implementing this would be accepted? Regards, Jan

Skip upgrades
by engineer2024 30 Jan '25

30 Jan '25

Is there a way to upgrade openstack older versions like ussuri , victoria, by migrating just the nova, neutron dbs, schema to the latest version by skipping one level at once and then install the latest venvs against the latest migrated galera dbs. On the compute nodes, if we preserve just the var lib nova instances and on top of it reinstall the compute and neutron agents, will it work ? I am asking becos, I don't know what r the dependencies among the major nova versions. Are the db schema and data, the only diffs from one version to another, or is there any thing else ?

[rabbitmq] Need help about RabbitMQ quorum HA mode
by İzzettin Erdem 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Hi, In kolla-ansible yoga environment, rabbitmq queues are set to quorum by default instead of classical mirroring, as it seems they are not replicated (per queue has +0 quorum). We tried to find a solution to handle it in configs, but we couldn't find it and we set queues to be replicated by using CLI commands (rabbitmq-queues grow). Now, my questions are: 1- Why do all rabbitmq queues come as non-replicated by default? 2- How can we set HA mode to quorum queues?

[neutron][upgrades] IPv6 Prefix Delegation 'dibbler' driver removal
by Brian Haley 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Hi again Stackers, In 2023, during the Bobcat cycle, the Neutron team changed the IPv6 Prefix Delegation (IPv6 PD) 'dibbler' driver to be an experimental feature [0]. The reason was due to it (dibbler) becoming unmaintained/retired upstream, as well as the low level of testing support we had in Neutron for the feature. So what does this mean? We (the neutron cores) have come to the conclusion that it is time to take the next step and remove the driver from the tree [1]. The framework to support IPv6 PD is *not* being removed, but as this is the only in-tree driver the functionality will no longer be available to end-users. We plan on doing this in the current Epoxy cycle. We realize that there may be deployments using IPv6 PD, although we have not to my knowledge ever received a bug against it, so we think any usage is very small. If there is desire to add an in-tree driver back to the code base, there is an open OVN-related bug for that at [2], we have just not had the interest from downstream customers to warrant the investment in this area. Thanks for reading, -Brian, Neutron PTL [0] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/neutron/+/879030 [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/neutron/+/934283 [2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1895972

[Nova] Nova-compute service flapping on Antelope
by Jakub Darmach 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Hello, Recently I encountered an interesting issue - nova-compute service started to temporarily lose Rabbit connectivity to regain it after a few seconds on Antelope. The issue was replicated on the test environment, without specific steps to replicate though - it just starts to happen after some time. I pasted a log example in the bug I opened [1]. First we can see rabbit logging closing AMQP connection, followed by nova-compute reporting rabbit server being unreachable, with next message being successful reconnection. Restarting nova-compute services helps temporarily, the issue starts to manifest after a few days. Initially disconnects once every few hours, each time in shorter intervals, to the point it happens every minute or so. Did anyone encounter something similar?

[administrivia] Bounce processing disabled for now
by Jeremy Stanley 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Due to repeated challenges with random messages being rejected by subscribers' mail providers (from DMARC invalidations, lines too long to be forwarded, content misidentified as spam, et cetera), the time required for list administrators to manage the resulting extra work is greater than the benefit we get from Mailman being able to figure out when subscriber addresses become defunct. As such, I've disabled the "bounce processing" feature for the time being, until we can work out solutions to make it less of a burden on our list admins and less confusing/failure prone for the list subscribers. If we do decide to give it another try at some point in the future, after some of the current challenges with it get ironed out, I'll let the list know. -- Jeremy Stanley

[nova] Performance Issues with OpenStack Server List on os-compute-api-version 2.96
by 黒羽正徳 [Kuroha Masanori] 28 Jan '25

28 Jan '25

Hello, We have recently encountered a situation where the response time for the openstack server list command is significantly slower when specifying os-compute-api-version 2.96 for certain projects. In comparison with version 2.95, some projects experience a response time that is 2-3 times longer, while other projects show little to no difference. We understand that in version 2.96, there was a change to obtain the availability zone from the request_spec [1]. However, upon checking the instance records in request_spec for the projects, we have not identified any differences that would account for this slow response behavior. Additionally, we have observed that when certain ERROR VM is present, the response time for the server list can become considerably slower for specific projects. In one case, we resolved the slow response issue by deleting instances that did not have corresponding fault records in the database. However, the exact reason why this action resolved the issue remains unclear. If anyone has more detailed information or potential solutions regarding these issues, or if you have encountered similar situations, we would greatly appreciate your insights.

[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2025.1/R-9)
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 28 Jan '25

28 Jan '25

Hello Stackers, We're 9 weeks away from OpenStack's 2025.1 coordinated "Epoxy" release [1]. These weeks leading up to feature freeze (R-5/Feb 24-28) will be about "getting things done" for project teams. As Slawek Kaplonski (slaweq) wrote to you [2], we'll be kicking off combined elections for Project Team Leads for the 2025.2 "Flamingo" release cycle and five seats on the OpenStack Technical Committee next week. In light of this, please confirm your eligibility to vote in these elections by navigating to the CIVS website and entering your Gerrit email address: https://civs1.civs.us/cgi-bin/opt_in.pl In each of the past three elections, we've had roughly a fifth of eligible voters cast their votes. It would make a great difference to our community if we could improve this statistic with your cooperation! In the past week, the OpenStack Technical Committee approved a resolution to welcome the "Freezer" (Disaster-Recovery-as-a-Service) project back into the fold of "active" projects [3]. I'd like to extend a shout-out to Dmitriy Rabotyagov (noonedeadpunk) and Álvaro Soto (khyr0n) for their work to revive the project team. The team is looking to pursue the release of several project deliverables during this release. === Weekly Meeting === The TC weekly IRC meeting on 2025-01-21 [4] was well attended. We were in "getting things done" mode too, as much of the meeting followed up on action items from past meetings. We discussed getting more active review participation for changes to the "openstackdocstheme" repository by working with the Oslo team. We also deliberated on election nomination windows. We are in favor of early nominations from folks who are unable to self-nominate due to holidays or other personal reasons to be away from their computers during the nomination window. However, there were concerns expressed that the election officials may be burdened by the work necessary to shepherd such nominations. Early nominations would fail several CI checks, require re-checks, and potentially create some confusion. We'll attempt to watch this closely for the next election cycle and recalibrate. Our goal is to avoid leaderless projects due to holiday cycles during elections. The TC also discussed the next steps for the newly active Freezer project to release artifacts during the current release cycle. The next meeting of the OpenStack TC is today, 2025-01-28, at 1800 UTC in the #openstack-tc IRC channel on OFTC. Please find the meeting's agenda on the meeting wiki [5]. I hope you'll be able to join us. === Governance Proposals === ==== Merged ==== - Retire Freezer DR | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/938183 - Remove Freezer from inactive state | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/938938 ==== Open for Review ==== - Retire qdrouterd role | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/938193 - Reset the DPL model for Oslo project | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/939485 - Reset the DPL model for Release project | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/939486 - Add devstack-plugin-prometheus repo to Quality Assurance repos | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/939953 - Reset the DPL model for Watcher project | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/939488 - Add Watcher project update liaison | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/940168 - Adopt DPL model for Watcher 2025.2 | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/940167 - Define 2025 upstream investment opportunities | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/939507 - Add resolution for late Freezer release | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/939792 - Deprecate ironic-lib | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/939278 - Resolve to adhere to non-biased language | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/934907 === Upcoming Events === - 2025-01-28: OpenInfra Board Monthly Meeting: https://board.openinfra.org/ - 2025-02-01: FOSDEM 2025 (https://fosdem.org/2025/) OpenStack's 15th Birthday Celebration - 2025-02-05: Nominations open for 2025.2 TC/PTL Elections: https://governance.openstack.org/election/ - 2025-02-28: 2025.1 ("Epoxy") Feature Freeze and release milestone 3 [1] - 2025-03-06: SCALE 2025 + OpenInfra Days NA (https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/22x) Thank you very much for reading!
