[tc][murano] Removing Murano from 2024.1 release
by Jay Faulkner 05 Mar '24

05 Mar '24

Hi all, After discussion in the TC meeting today about lots of gathered evidence that Murano is inactive and plagued by serious bugs, I have proposed a resolution to remove Murano from the release. This is roughly equivalent to marking it inactive; however we can only use inactive status to remove things from the release before milestone-2. At this point, the TC is too late discovering the bad state of Murano to use inactivity to prevent its release. Therefore, I have proposed a special-case resolution[0] reflecting general consensus in the TC meeting that Murano should not be released. I wanted to inform the community of this resolution, and advise anyone who may be considering deployment of Murano to be aware of its current inactive state. Additionally, if you believe our evaluation of the situation is wrong, feel free to let your voice be heard in Gerrit. Thanks, Jay Faulkner OpenStack TC Chair 0: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/910434

[magnum][stein][kolla-ansible] Cluster creation timeout
by İzzettin Erdem 05 Mar '24

05 Mar '24

Hi everyone, I am currently working on Magnum installed on kolla-ansible stein version. I followed the docs and created clusters using Fedora-Atomic-27-20180419.0.x86_64.qcow2 image according to docs. Now, magnum is creating necessary resources, VMs etc but after some time it is getting timeout at kube_minions&kube_cluster_deploy steps and there are not any information logs about it. I've tried to use different images but I could not succeed. Can you help me, please? Thanks a lot, İzzettin.

[diskimage-builder] bootable ISO image for baremetal
by Ettore Simone 05 Mar '24

05 Mar '24

Hi! I know it is not one of the most wonderful options for DIB, but in some circumstances I used ISO image in a USB stick for some old and unmaintained hardware. I used to fix by hand every time the "iso" element to complete the task, due to an old reference to a deprecated variable (DIB_IMAGE_ROOT_FS_UUID, now DIB_BOOT_LABEL). I proposed a very small fix and I hope it could be merged in the future: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/diskimage-builder/+/905556 Thank you for all your great work. Cheers, Ettore

OpenDev Removing CentOS 7 Test Nodes from Zuul and Nodepool on March 15
by Clark Boylan 04 Mar '24

04 Mar '24

The OpenDev team has been cleaning up old distro releases from Zuul and Nodepool. Recently, OpenSUSE Leap 15.2 and Debian Buster were removed. Next up on the list is CentOS 7. Unlike Leap and Buster, CentOS 7 is/was used quite a bit more in Zuul configs. According to codesearch [0] these projects are still using CentOS 7 in their master branches: * Swift * OpenStack Ansible * Devstack * Freezer * Solum * Octavia This is likely an incomplete list of OpenStack projects that need cleanup, and I know there are other projects to clean up outside of OpenStack. It would be great if we can clean this up in the near future (and thank you to those of you who have already started). This ensures we don't have another stable branch perpetuating old configs that need cleanup. I have also asked the release team to start communicating cleanups happen early around release time rather than waiting for branch EOL to prevent these configs moving through our releases unnecessarily. Cleanup will also minimize impact when we remove the node type from our CI system on March 15, 2024. The motivation for this cleanup effort is that we've got a number of old distro releases in the CI system that need care and feeding which are either EOL, soon to be EOL, or otherwise unused. Removing these test node types gives us room to add new test node types like the upcoming Ubuntu 24.04 release. We plan to remove Ubuntu Xenial test nodes after CentOS 7 is removed if you want to get a head start on that cleanup too. We understand that this may impact the OpenStack release which is why I'm sending this email. At the same time we want to be in a position where we can have new distro releases ready in a reasonable time frame which necessitates cleanup like this. Please feel free to respond to this thread with any questions or concerns. [0] https://codesearch.opendev.org/?q=centos-7 Clark

Hi, I've been waiting for this promising feature for a long time already, so I went to check, and saw that in launchpad [1], the blueprint seemed implemented. Though I didn't see anything in Manila's docs about it. So what's the status of this driver? Is it soon ready?

[oslo][release][requirement] FFE request and RFE request for castellan
by Takashi Kajinami 04 Mar '24

04 Mar '24

Hello, We recently caught that castellan 4.4.0, the latest release for caracal, introduced the backword-incompatible change[1] which breaks the existing usage in nova. While we are resolving the problem by the change in nova[2], we discussed this problem in #openstack-release[3], and we agreed that we should make major bump with the upgrade impact properly documented in a release note to announce the breaking change more clearly. Based on the agreement, I'm now preparing a new castellan 5.0.0 release, with the upgrade note added[4]. I'd like to request approval about this release, and also the subsequent upper constraint change to pull castellan 5.0.0 to 2024.1 release. Please let me know if you have any question/concern/etc. Thank you, Takashi [1] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/castellan/+/895502/ [2] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/896100 The same fix for cinder was merged some time ago. https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/896121 [3] https://meetings.opendev.org/irclogs/%23openstack-release/%23openstack-rele… [4] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/castellan/+/910884 https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/910883 -- Takashi Kajinami irc: tkajinam github: https://github.com/kajinamit launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~kajinamit

01 Mar '24

Hello, I'm trying to set up the Bumblebee (https://github.com/NeCTAR-RC/bumblebee) project on my local computer to test. So I installed docker and tried setup by following the readme. But I'm really new in OpenStack (only tried to run OpenStack through devstack) so I would appreciate it if I could have a very detailed guide. So please share any idea, online video link, or guide document. anything is good to me. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks, Artemio Mendoza

[manila] Feature Freeze Exceptions
by Carlos Silva 01 Mar '24

01 Mar '24

Hello, Zorillas! During this week's IRC meeting we talked about the features we are working on and that need a feature freeze exception, and three contributors shared changes that need some more time to get to completion: 1. Human Readable Export locations: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/manila/+/908897 - Core + API https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/python-manilaclient/+/908909 - CLI https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/manila/+/908907 - NetApp driver implementation This change relates to an RFE created by operators a couple of cycles ago, and it will enhance the usability for Manila users while mounting shares. The author of this change has been responding to all comments and actively working with the reviewers to implement the suggested modifications. The author mentioned that he would need more time to fix the review comments. 2. Share backups for NetApp driver: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/manila/+/910595 - Changes to the backup base driver https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/manila/+/909115 - NetApp Backup driver The generic approach for share backups was implemented in the previous cycle and NetApp is working on a driver-specific implementation for backups. The author has also been actively working with the reviewers providing updates, but more time would be needed for more review rounds. 3. Deferred deletion: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/manila/+/907051 This is also a feature we have been designing for a while, and it will be useful when the backend takes a lot of time to delete shares. Manila will be able to release the quotas and track the shares deletion in the background. The author worked on review comments very fast and addressed the issues pointed by the reviews, but we still need some more review rounds. I would like to grant a feature freeze exception for the three features mentioned and we should aim to merge them by the end of the next week (march 8th). Thank you, carloss

[oslo] Removing feature branches of oslo.messaging
by Takashi Kajinami 01 Mar '24

01 Mar '24

Hello, # I already discussed this with a few people but am sending this email # mostly for records. Currently we have a few feature branches in oslo.messaging but it seems these are not actually used now. feature/amqp-dispatch-router : the feature was already merged into master feature/nats-driver : this branch contains no meaningful change feature/pika : the feature was already merged into master feature/zmq : the feature was already merged into master I'd propose deleting these useless branches. Note that currently the nats-driver branch is causing config error in zuul, which was triggered by TripleO's retirement, and my quick attempt revealed that, as I expected, CI in that branch is badly broken. Please let me know if you have any concern. Thank you, Takashi -- Takashi Kajinami irc: tkajinam github: https://github.com/kajinamit launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~kajinamit

[release] Release countdown for week R-4, March 04-08
by Herve Beraud 01 Mar '24

01 Mar '24

Development Focus ----------------- We just passed feature freeze! Until release branches are cut, you should stop accepting featureful changes to deliverables following the cycle-with-rc release model, or to libraries. Exceptions should be discussed on separate threads on the mailing-list, and feature freeze exceptions approved by the team's PTL. Focus should be on finding and fixing release-critical bugs, so that release candidates and final versions of the 2024.1/Caracal deliverables can be proposed, well ahead of the final 2024.1/Caracal release date. General Information ------------------- We are still finishing up processing a few release requests, but the 2024.1/Caracal release requirements are now frozen. If new library releases are needed to fix release-critical bugs in 2024.1/Caracal, you must request a Requirements Freeze Exception (RFE) from the requirements team before we can do a new release to avoid having something released in 2024.1/Caracal that is not actually usable. This is done by posting to the openstack-discuss mailing list with a subject line similar to: [$PROJECT][requirements] RFE requested for $PROJECT_LIB Include justification/reasoning for why a RFE is needed for this lib. If/when the requirements team OKs the post-freeze update, we can then process a new release. A soft String freeze is now in effect, in order to let the I18N team do the translation work in good conditions. In Horizon and the various dashboard plugins, you should stop accepting changes that modify user-visible strings. Exceptions should be discussed on the mailing-list. By March 25, 2024 this will become a hard string freeze, with no changes in user-visible strings allowed. Actions ------- stable/2024.1 branches should be created soon for all not-already-branched libraries. You should expect 2-3 changes to be proposed for each: a .gitreview update, a reno update (skipped for projects not using reno), and a tox.ini constraints URL update. Please review those in priority so that the branch can be functional ASAP. The Prelude section of reno release notes is rendered as the top level overview for the release. Any important overall messaging for 2024.1/Caracal changes should be added there to make sure the consumers of your release notes see them. Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Cycle Highlights Due: March 7th, 2024 (R-4 week) RC1 deadline: week of March 11, 2024 (R-3 week) Final RC deadline: week of March 25, 2024 (R-1 week) Final 2024.1/Caracal release: April 3, 2024 Dalmatian PTG: April 8-12, 2024 -- Hervé Beraud Senior Software Engineer at Red Hat irc: hberaud https://github.com/4383/

[TC][openapi] Request for new projects under the OpenStack hat
by gtema 01 Mar '24

01 Mar '24

Hi TC representatives, Some time ago I was communicating about my POC on generating OpenAPI schemas from the source code of services. I continued working on that and have now few projects (that I was developing on GitHub to make life easier) that I would like to bring under the OpenStack hood (and place them under the SDK team). I have also figured out that Nova is now reviewing spec on starting using supporting this (thanks Stephen) and Neutron folks expressed also interest. === codegenerator https://gtema.github.io/openstack-codegenerator/ This project is responsible for generation of the OpenAPI specs and generate other (currently user-facing) code ouf of them === openstack-openapi https://gtema.github.io/openstack-openapi/ This repo hosts rendered specs and provides analogue to the os-api-ref Sphinx extension that renders them into the html (what you see under the link is a mix of Swagger and os-api-ref style). I was not really effectively working on that rendering lately, the repo right now is more or less a storage for the specs themselves with a first sketch of sphinx extension of rendering and basic OpenAPI flavoring doc. === openstack-rs https://gtema.github.io/openstack/ This is a Rust monorepo project with few items: - SDK for OpenStack out of the rendered OpenAPI specs - experimental CLI following very different approach compared to the python- openstackclient. It is compiled into single binary (what helps those not willing to pull whole python with all deps and the insanity we experience lately or those who build docker containers with only OSC inside to bypass the mentioned hell) and purely auto-generated from the specs - [future] openstack-tui (similar to k9s for Kubernetes) Here it is all really oriented only on the user facing tooling. I am very convinced in this project and will continue working on it independent on the outcome. Any objections/ideas/comments? Should I just go and create 3 project-config changes pending the approval? ====== Since I am on this topic anyway I would also like to address another related question. While working for OpenTelekomCloud we developed HashiVault plugin for managing OpenStack credentials as secrets (I had a talk on that in Vancouver). We tried to bring this to OpenDev but were unsure under which namespace. Pretty shortly a Hashi license issue started circling around and after few back and forth iterations we were not sure what to do with that project at all. Anyway the plugin itself is Apache-2 and working. It should be possible to also use it with OpenBAO (as a fork of Vault), but it was not tested so far. I am now not with Telekom anymore, but people there are still willing to contribute it under the OpenStack. Do you have any opinions on that? Is there interest in getting this under the OpenDev and if yes then which namespace (openstack or X)? ======= Thanks, Artem

The most useful changes are gradually being contributed upstream. Matt Crees has contributed several useful features to Blazar in the past few releases and helps to maintain the code. The Blazar project will benefit from their expertise and I trust their input as reviewers. Best wishes, Pierre Riteau (priteau)

[all] Gate issues and memory pressure; can you help?
by Jay Faulkner 29 Feb '24

29 Feb '24

Hi all, As some of you are aware, keeping the OpenStack CI system operating is a massive amount of work, and it's a team effort. Along those lines, we continue to have issues with CI, and memory pressure is a common thread. Recently at a TC meeting[0] we discussed how the gate is using more ram -- now in the form of swap. One additional concern is that this memory usage increase may be reflective of what our users are experiencing -- bugs that we need to fix for the sake of our users. A specific target of concern is oslo.privsep[1], but generally a need for an audit of memory usages of OpenStack services would be of significant value to the community. If you're interested in taking on this work, please reach out here, on the mailing list, or in any relevant #openstack-* channel, such as #openstack-tc. In any event, don't wait for permission! Take action and see if you can make things better, even a little bit. Thanks, Jay Faulkner OpenStack TC Chair 0: https://meetings.opendev.org/meetings/tc/2024/tc.2024-02-20-18.00.log.html 1: https://opendev.org/openstack/oslo.privsep
