[tripleo] Container image tooling roadmap
by Kevin Carter 05 May '20

05 May '20

Hello Stackers, As you may have seen, the TripleO project has been testing the idea of building container images using a simplified toolchain [0]. The idea is to build smaller, more easily maintained images to simplify the lives of TripleO consumers. Since TripleO's move to containers, the project has been leveraging Kolla to provide Dockerfiles, and while this has worked, TripleO has created considerable tooling to bend Kolla images to its needs. Sadly this has resulted in an image size explosion and the proliferation of difficult to maintain tools, with low bus factors, which are essential to the success of the project. To address the risk centered around the TripleO containerization story, we've drafted a spec [0], which we believe outlines a more sustainable future. In this specification, we've designed a new, much more straightforward, approach to building container images for the TripleO project. The "simple container generation," specification does not intend to be a general-purpose tool used to create images for the greater OpenStack community, both Loci and Kolla do that already. This effort is to build containers only for TripleO using distro provided repositories, with distro maintained tooling. By focusing only on what we need, we're able to remove all general-purpose assumptions and create a vertically integrated stack resulting in a much smaller surface area. To highlight how all this works, we've put together several POC changes: * Role and playbook to implement the Containerfile specification [1]. * Tripleoclient review to interface with the new role and playbook [2]. * Directory structure for variable file layout [3]. * To see how this works using the POC code, building images we've tested in real deployments, please watch the ASCII-cast [4]. * Example configuration file examples are here [5][6][7]. A few examples of size comparisons between our proposed tooling versus current Kolla based images [8]: - base: + Kolla: 588 MB - new: 211 MB # based on ubi8, smaller than centos8 - nova-base: + Kolla: 1.09 GB - new: 720 MB - nova-libvirt: + Kolla: 2.14 GB - new: 1.9 GB - keystone: + Kolla: 973 MB - new: 532 MB - memcached: + Kolla: 633 MB - new: 379 MB While the links shown are many, the actual volume of the proposed change is small, although the impact is massive: * With more straightforward to understand tools, we'll be able to get broader participation from the TripleO community to maintain our containerization efforts and extend our service capabilities. * With smaller images, the TripleO community will serve OpenStack deployers and operators better; less bandwidth consumption and faster install times. We're looking to chart a more reliable path forward, and making the TripleO user experience a great one. While the POC changes are feature-complete and functional, more work is needed to create the required variable files; however, should the proposed specification be ratified, we expect to make quick work of what's left. As such, if you would like to be involved or have any feedback on anything presented here, please don't hesitate to reach out. We aim to provide regular updates regarding our progress on the "Simple container generation" initiative, so stay tuned.

[blazar] Updating blazar-core and blazar-release groups
by Pierre Riteau 05 May '20

05 May '20

Hello, I noticed in a recent blazar-specs patch [1] that lots of historical contributors were requested as reviewers. I assume this is because the blazar-core group was used (this is not a feature that I've used before on Gerrit). To avoid spamming people who haven't worked on Blazar for years, I propose to remove the following members of the blazar-core group: Dina Belova Hiroaki Kobayashi Nikolay Starodubtsev Pablo Andres Fuente Ryota MIBU Swann Croiset Sylvain Bauza I would also remove Hiroaki Kobayashi from the blazar-release group. Please let me know if you have any objections. [1] https://review.opendev.org/#/c/723115/

[all][docs] docs.openstack.org: Check Ussuri Index pages
by Andreas Jaeger 05 May '20

05 May '20

The Ussuri index pages [1] are now published, the default on docs.o.o to Ussuri will change with release. The index pages only list entries that existed yesterday, so if a project was branched but did not merge any change, then no Ussuri content might exist and thus the project is not listed in the index pages. In such a case: Merge the usual bot updates, wait for the content to be published, and then propose a change to [3]. For details see [2].

cross distro Virtual PTG planning
by Thomas Goirand 04 May '20

04 May '20

Dear package maintainers, We used to have a cross-distro discussion during each PTG (well, summits, since I didn't attend any PTG since the split). I was wondering if people from other distros would be interested in having such a session again. Please tell if you hare as a follow-up here, then maybe we can add ourselves in the ethercalc. I used to know everyone, like Haikel, people from SuSE, etc. Nowadays, I only know people from Canonical. I'd love to meet the new guys around. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

02 May '20

Hello Everyone, Please find the final status for the py2.7 drop goal. Finally, it is COMPLETED!! With this (after three continuous cycles), I am taking a break from community goals (at least for V cycle :))!!. Wiki page is updated: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Python3 I have added the 'Python3 Only' column here https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Python3#Python_3_Status_of_OpenStack_projec… Completion Report: =============== * Swift & Storlets are the two projects keeping py2.7 support. * All projects have completed the goal and now are python3-only. * It has been another roller coaster :) and I appreciate everyone helped in this work and all the projects reviewing the patches on time with few exceptions :). * A Lot of gate issues occurred and fixed during this transition especially making branchless tooling testing the mixed python version ( stable branch on py2 and other on py3). * I finished the audit for all the projects. requirement repo will be cleaning up the py2 caps in Victoria cycle[1]. Some ongoing work on deployement projects repo or unmaintained repo: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These are dpendendant on other work for testing framework etc. This can be continued and need not to be tracked under this goal. * python-barbicanclient: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/699096/ ** This repo seems unmaintained for last 6 months and the gate is already broken. * Openstack Charms - Most of them merged, few are waiting for the team to migrate to Python3 Zaza functional test framework. * Openstackansible - This will finish once centos jobs will be migrated to Centos8. * Openstack-Helm - No conclusion yet from help team on what else to do for py2 drop. -gmann

[all][qa] Gate Status: week 20-18
by Ghanshyam Mann 01 May '20

01 May '20

Hello Everyone, I am highlighting the few of the gate issues we fixed or in-progress recently. 1. Ubuntu xenial node jobs on stable stein onwards gate or 3rd party CI. Tempest 23.0.0 is the last version supported for py2.7 or py3.5. And we used the that version to tests stable/rocky jobs(py3.5 env) gate and any py2.7 job on stein or train gate. It was fixed on many projects when gate started failing with master Tempest. Last week when Tempest new version 24.0.0 is released and the same is updated in master upper-constraint, we found xenial node job running on stein gate (for Octavia and Ironic at least). Fixing those is not easy which needs overriding the constraint for that particular job. Octavia and Ironic removed the xenial job which is the right step. But few 3rd party CI not migrated to Bionic stein onwards will stop working now. One workaround can be to override the constraint to stable/rocky via env var UPPER_CONSTRAINTS_FILE but I have not tried if that works or not. If not, moving your CI to Bionic is the way forward. I am trying a new approach to cap the constraint in tox.ini itself whenever a new Tempest version is released. That can avoid hacking the same via UPPER_CONSTRAINTS_FILE. For example, Tempest 24.0.0 tag's tox.ini use stable/ussuri constraint. 2. Bug#1876330. devstack-plugin-ceph-tempest-py3 failing for rescue BFV instance test New tests added for rescue BFV instance feature on Nova failed on ceph job. lyarwood is working on the bug but for now, we have taken the step forward to skip the tests for ceph. Any new tests which do not work on ceph, we need to add the tests in ceph blacklist file until the bug is fixed. Job is green now. if it was failing on your gate where it is running as voting, please recheck. - https://review.opendev.org/#/c/724866/ I have also proposed to make ceph job as voting on the Tempest side (it was n-v till now) so that we can take these steps well before merging the new tests on the Tempest gate. - https://review.opendev.org/#/c/724948/1 -gmann

[all] A call for consolidation and simplification
by Thierry Carrez 01 May '20

01 May '20

Hi all, I'd like to issue a call for consolidation and simplification for OpenStack development. In the early years of the project, we faced a lot of challenges. We had to spread the development load across manageable-size groups, so we encouraged the creation of a lot of project teams. We wanted to capture all the energy that was sent towards the project, so we passed project structure reforms (like the big tent) that would aggressively include new community groups in the "official" OpenStack community. We needed to remove bottlenecks, so we encouraged decentralized decision making. And we had to answer unique challenges, so we created software to match them (Zuul). In summary, we had a lot of people, and not enough systems to organize them, so we created those. Fast-forward to 2020, and our challenges are different. The many systems that we created in the early days have created silos, with very small groups of people working in isolation, making cross-project work more difficult than it should be. The many systems that we created generate a lot of fragmentation. Like we have too many meetings (76, in case you were wondering), too much energy spent running them, too much frustration when nobody joins. Finally, the many systems that we created represent a lot of complexity for newcomers to handle. We have 180 IRC channels, most of them ghost towns where by the time someone answers, the person asking the question is long gone. So I think it's time to generally think about simplifying and consolidating things. It's not as easy as it sounds. Our successful decentralization efforts make it difficult to make the centralized decision to regroup. It's hard to justify time and energy spent to /remove/ things, especially those that we spent time creating in the first place. But we now have too many systems and not enough people, so we need to consolidate and simplify. Back around Havana, when we had around the same number of active contributors as today, we used to have 36 meetings and 20 teams. Do we really need 180 IRC channels, 76 meetings, 63 project teams (not even counting SIGs)? Yes, we all specialized over time, so it's hard to merge for example Oslo + Requirements, or QA + Infrastructure, or Stable + Release Management, or Monasca + Telemetry. We are all overextended so it's hard to learn new tricks or codebases. And yet, while I'm not really sure what the best approach is, I think it's necessary. Comments, thoughts? -- Thierry Carrez (ttx)

So now I have patch [1] but notes aren't going to stable/ussuri branch at all. I found the way how to exclude it from current (V) release notes but is there any way to somehow force to add it to stable/ussuri's release notes now?

[release] Release countdown for week R-1, May 4 - 8
by Sean McGinnis 01 May '20

01 May '20

Development Focus ----------------- We are on the final mile of the Ussuri development cycle! Remember that the Ussuri final release will include the latest release candidate (for cycle-with-rc deliverables) or the latest intermediary release (for cycle-with-intermediary deliverables) available. May 7 is the deadline for final Ussuri release candidates as well as any last cycle-with-intermediary deliverables. We will then enter a quiet period until we tag the final release on May 13. Teams should be prioritizing fixing release-critical bugs, before that deadline. Otherwise it's time to start planning the Victoria development cycle, including discussing PTG sessions content, in preparation of the virtual Victoria PTG event taking place June 1-5. Actions ------- Watch for any translation patches coming through on the stable/ussuri branch and merge them quickly. If you discover a release-critical issue, please make sure to fix it on the master branch first, then backport the bugfix to the stable/ussuri branch before triggering a new release. Please drop by #openstack-release with any questions or concerns about the upcoming release! Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Final RC deadline: May 7 (R-1 week) Final Ussuri release: May 13 Virtual Victoria PTG: June 1-5

[ironic][redfish] Breaking (for us) underlying schema/behavior change and what do we do?
by Julia Kreger 30 Apr '20

30 Apr '20

Greetings fellow awesome sentient beings, and the occasional text indexers! We have a growing conundrum with Redfish. A long time ago, in a red shifted galaxy inhabited by Redfish, a feature was defined early on in the DMTF specification defining a "BootSourceOverrideEnabled" field as part of the ComputerSystem Boot object[0]. This setting, in concert with the "BootSourceOverrideTarget" and "BootSourceOverrideMode" setting allowed Ironic to signal an override preference in regards to what device the machine should boot to. As time as moved forward, schema field descriptions were added, and notes further detailed (observable by looking at [1], see ComputerSystem 1.0.0, 1.5.0, 1.6.0, 1.8.0). One such case, at least depending on what field you looked at also noted that "BootSourceOverrideEnabled" was not possible with the "Continuous" setting, however that was only noted under the one time override option "UefiTargetBootSourceOverride" which is leveraged by the explicit "UEFITarget" target option, at least until ComputerSystem 1.8.0. In ComputerSystem 1.8.0, an explicit note was added into the description text for "BootSourceOverrideEnabled" detailing that one time override use was the only option for UEFI. The published documents also have not been very clear on this, but there are numerous documents on the subject so it seems very easy for the schema details note being added and enhanced in 1.8.0 drove vendors to begin to change the logic around their "BootSourceOverrideEnabled" option to represent what the current documentation detailed, regardless of their schema version. Also, the schema/api versions are disjointed and BMCs out there exist without some of the defined fields. It just kind of is our life with hardware. So why now? The ironic team has had reports recently, across multiple vendors, where with newer firmware versions beginning to implement the changes in schema 1.8.0, where it seems we will no longer be able to use the option we were using, which seemed logical at least when looking at the BMC conformance to the standard. And while some may view the fact it worked on multiple vendors as a regression, I'm sure they see it as a bug as it was seemingly never intended to work that way when we look at the "UEFITargetBootSourceOverride" field notes from the early schemas. tl;dr: As BMC's vendors add the newer schema fields and resulting behavior, the existing redfish driver's ability to assert persistent boot devices breaks. With all of that having been said, I think we should remove our persistent setting capability in our redfish driver, and back port the fix where possible. That being said, this is also a behavior change, so it is time to get everyone's thoughts, since we will need to stress that machines by default should boot from persistent storage instead of network by default. We also need to launch a long term effort to try and duplicate the setting capabilities through the other BMC interfaces/methods/settings, but the variation by vendor is what is going to make it very difficult until the latest redfish schema version is implemented by vendors. Of course, that too may be a while.

[puppet][packaging] Switching to policy.yaml (over policy.json)
by Thomas Goirand 30 Apr '20

30 Apr '20

Hi team! In the light of the discussion that recently happened in #openstack-nova, it looks like switching from a .json file to a .yaml file is what we should do. Indeed, the file generated in .json format, if used pristine with the nova.conf and without enforcing scope, makes a nova-api service that simply doesn't work. Please read https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1875418 for more insights. The issue is that both packages are generating a .json (at least in Debian and Ubuntu) and puppet expect a policy.json, not a policy.yaml. With the policy.yaml, we don't have the same problem as by default, all policies are commented out. Operators just need to uncomment to activate. So, my proposal is the following: before the final release of OpenStack, I will modify all Debian OpenStack packages to generate (and package) both policy.json and policy.yaml. Then puppet-openstack can switch over to the .yaml file, and uncomment only the parts that the operator sees as relevant. I also would like to add a policy.d folder by default in each package, where operators can override stuff. Just having the folder will be a sign to operators that they are invited to write stuff in there, and that it will not be overwritten by a package upgrade. Then what I would like to do, is get puppet-openstack to only write there, for example in /etc/nova/policy.d/my-custom-policy.yaml. The file in /etc/nova/policy.yaml will be marked as "CONFFILE" in Debian, meaning that dpkg will prompt for changes on upgrades, while what's in the policy.d will remain. Last, I do believe that the yaml files are a way more easy to handle with puppet than the .json counterpart. Indeed, we could use something like the .ini management thing, with the : (Semicolumn) sign replacing the = (equal) sign. Moreover, the .yaml files contain comments which the .json files are lacking, making it auto-documented for operators. The only reason why I didn't use .yaml files earlier in the Debian packages was that, somehow, loading them with the API didn't work. I confirm that now it looks like working (though I'd have to test if changing a value is taken into account, I didn't do that yet). Your thoughts everyone? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

[all] Curating the openstack org on GitHub
by Thierry Carrez 30 Apr '20

30 Apr '20

Hi everyone, As you know, for practical and "code marketing" reasons, we maintain mirrors of the opendev.org/openstack repositories on GitHub: https://github.com/openstack/ A few months ago jroll and I took on the task of maintaining the "openstack" organization on GitHub... In particular pushing "moved" final commits to repositories that are now maintained elsewhere on Opendev, and marking them retired. It's all a bit of a challenge. GitHub does not let you set the "mirror" flag by API (you have to ask GitHub support to manually do it, and they don't like it when you ask for it to be set on 1,831 repositories). The "pinned repositories" UI fails miserably and does not let us select "Nova" (again, probably too many repositories, GitHub support does not have a solution for us). There are limited opportunities to describe the fact that we actually only use GitHub as a mirror, leading to confusion. For inactive repositories (no longer under OpenStack governance), the situation is even more confusing. Some are noted "MOVED" or "RETIRED" in their description, some have a closing commit (some others don't), some have the "archived" flag. Some don't have anything and appear active while they are not (see attached CSV for those who like data). There is also the openstack-dev and openstack-attic organizations, which are leftovers from ancient times. In summary, for a "code marketing" opportunity, it does not paint a great picture. I'd like to make the following suggestion: - aggressively delete all non-openstack things from the openstack org, keeping only official, active repositories - delete the openstack-dev and openstack-attic organizations We shied away from doing that in the past, mostly to not break people who may have cloned those repositories... But I think the benefits of cleaning up now outweigh the drawbacks. The reference code always exists at opendev.org anyway. Also maybe once we are back to a more reasonable number of visible repositories, the pins UI will work again. And GitHub will actually be OK with setting the mirror flag. Thoughts, comments ? -- Thierry Carrez (ttx)

[TC] Ussuri Virtual Celebration!
by Kendall Nelson 29 Apr '20

29 Apr '20

Hello :) So! Since we won't be able to see each other in June and celebrate the recent release together, is there interest in doing a virtual cheers as a community? We could do something fun like.. trivia or a baking contest or something? I am reaching out to the TC specifically because we would probably want to do more than one of these and spread across all timezones so we could have a TC member or two 'host' the cheers. Can't wait to hear what you all think! -Kendall (diablo_rojo)

[openstack-helm-infra][elasticsearch]Error deploying chart in k8s cluster with local storage
by Sanjay K 29 Apr '20

29 Apr '20

Hello everyone, I have been trying to deploy elasticsearch helm chart in my k8s cluster consisting of 4 nodes (1 k8s master, 1 controller and 2 computes) after deploying fluentbit and fluentd helm charts which are deployed with success. I have plan to make the EFK (Elasticsearch-Fluentd-Kibana) stack running in my k8s cluster setup for logs management. However I face issues while deploying elasticsearch helm chart using the below command : $ helm install elasticsearch local/elasticsearch --values values_overrides/local-storage.yaml -n openstack Error: unable to build kubernetes objects from release manifest: error validating "": error validating data: ValidationError(StatefulSet.spec): unknown field "strategy" in io.k8s.api.apps.v1.StatefulSetSpec Can anyone point me if I missing anything? What are the prerequisites before deploying elasticsearch chart which intended to use local storage/pv in my case avoiding the default S3 storage as per the chart? Thanks for your pointers and suggestions. ' best regards, SanjayK

[requirements][all] - requirements is now frozen for non-critical updates
by Matthew Thode 29 Apr '20

29 Apr '20

After the Ussuri-3 milestone, only critical requirements and constraints changes will be allowed. Freezing our requirements list gives packagers downstream an opportunity to catch up and prepare packages for everything necessary for distributions of the upcoming release. The requirements remain frozen until the stable branches are created, with the release candidates. All future changes not previously approved will need a FFE request set to the list, please prefix it with [FFE][requirements][PROJECTNAME]. -- Matthew Thode

[all][TC][PTL][release] Ussuri Community Meeting Proposal
by Allison Price 28 Apr '20

28 Apr '20

Hi everyone, As we prepare for the upcoming Ussuri release on May 13, I wanted to see if there was interest among the community to do a community meeting with folks presenting release highlights / answering questions that people may have. We were thinking that atleast one member from the TC or release management team could moderate the discussion and call on various PTLs to present what their teams accomplished during this cycle. If possible, we could do one that is around 1400 UTC to hit Europe and the United States and potentially another one around 0200 UTC for APAC, so we may need two volunteers. We would also like to promote Ussuri demos in the release comms, including the landing page and promotional materials. If you are planning to do a demo or would like to, please let me know and we can include it on the Ussuri landing page. Let me know what y’all think about doing a community meeting and if particular folks would like to volunteer to moderate and / or present. Looking forward to hearing feedback, and, in particular, if anyone is interested in volunteering to help moderate or participate in the Ussuri focused community meeting. Thanks!

[magnum] issues with cloud-init and user-data on fedora-atomic image
by Jean-Philippe Méthot 28 Apr '20

28 Apr '20

Hi, I’ve been testing out magnum (rocky) in my staging environment and I’ve been running into an issue I can’t really explain. Essentially, Magnum is able to provision all the VMs it needs according to the template. However, when it comes time to install kubernetes through cloud-init, cloud-init is unable to fetch the user-data. I must specify that ONLY the user-data is affected. Everything else that’s read from the metadata gets through without any issue. I can also do 'curl http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/' <http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/'> from the VM without any issue. When I try to curl http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/user-data <http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/user-data> , curl just hangs without any data showing up : sudo curl -v http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/user-data * Trying 169.254.169.254... * TCP_NODELAY set * Connected to 169.254.169.254 (169.254.169.254) port 80 (#0) > GET /2009-04-04/user-data HTTP/1.1 > Host: 169.254.169.254 > User-Agent: curl/7.59.0 > Accept: */* Tcpdump -vvv looks like this : sudo tcpdump -vvv -i eth0 host 169.254.169.254 tcpdump: listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 262144 bytes 20:36:22.284195 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 11248, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 60) kubernetes-cluster-f4anhakchpkj-minion-0.staging.planethoster.ne.56896 > 169.254.169.254.http: Flags [S], cksum 0x5e34 (incorrect -> 0x51a5), seq 2359174217, win 26730, options [mss 8910,sackOK,TS val 583688334 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0 20:36:22.284793 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 60) 169.254.169.254.http > kubernetes-cluster-f4anhakchpkj-minion-0.staging.planethoster.ne.56896: Flags [S.], cksum 0x9ed1 (correct), seq 2099498427, ack 2359174218, win 26694, options [mss 8910,sackOK,TS val 4068504964 ecr 583688334,nop,wscale 9], length 0 20:36:22.284875 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 11249, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 52) kubernetes-cluster-f4anhakchpkj-minion-0.staging.planethoster.ne.56896 > 169.254.169.254.http: Flags [.], cksum 0x5e2c (incorrect -> 0x522e), seq 1, ack 1, win 209, options [nop,nop,TS val 583688335 ecr 4068504964], length 0 20:36:22.284962 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 11250, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 151) kubernetes-cluster-f4anhakchpkj-minion-0.staging.planethoster.ne.56896 > 169.254.169.254.http: Flags [P.], cksum 0x5e8f (incorrect -> 0xb692), seq 1:100, ack 1, win 209, options [nop,nop,TS val 583688335 ecr 4068504964], length 99: HTTP, length: 99 GET /2009-04-04/user-data HTTP/1.1 Host: 169.254.169.254 User-Agent: curl/7.59.0 Accept: */* 20:36:22.325212 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 47160, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 52) 169.254.169.254.http > kubernetes-cluster-f4anhakchpkj-minion-0.staging.planethoster.ne.56896: Flags [.], cksum 0x523e (correct), seq 1, ack 100, win 53, options [nop,nop,TS val 4068505005 ecr 583688335], length 0 20:36:33.546523 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 11251, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 52) kubernetes-cluster-f4anhakchpkj-minion-0.staging.planethoster.ne.56896 > 169.254.169.254.http: Flags [F.], cksum 0x5e2c (incorrect -> 0x25a4), seq 100, ack 1, win 209, options [nop,nop,TS val 583699596 ecr 4068505005], length 0 20:36:33.586154 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 47169, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 52) 169.254.169.254.http > kubernetes-cluster-f4anhakchpkj-minion-0.staging.planethoster.ne.56896: Flags [.], cksum 0x91fc (correct), seq 26695, ack 101, win 53, options [nop,nop,TS val 4068516266 ecr 583699596], length 0 So the instance does receive packets as a reply to the curl, but they’re empty.

Nova-api and neutron-metadata logs show http 200 for each of my requests to nova. What could be blocking the user-data from reaching the instance in this case? Is there a way to set magnum-created intances to use configdrive instead? I must also specify that user-data works on all regular instances. It’s only affecting instances created by magnum.

Announcing the general availability of Debian packages for Ussuri
by Thomas Goirand 28 Apr '20

28 Apr '20

Hi, Even after 9 years packaging OpenStack, I'm still excited to announce the availability of the last release of OpenStack in Debian. Indeed, today, I was able to launch my first VM using Ussuri, running on top of Debian Buster. Even if we haven't run Tempest on this release yet, it's already usable, and I wanted everyone to know about it. Packages are available either from Debian Experimental (they will be uploaded to Unstable the day of the official release, then hopefully migrate automatically to Debian Testing) or from the debian.net backports to Buster, from both of these repos: deb http://buster-ussuri.debian.net/debian buster-ussuri-backports main deb-src http://buster-ussuri.debian.net/debian buster-ussuri-backports main deb http://buster-ussuri.debian.net/debian buster-ussuri-backports-nochange main deb-src http://buster-ussuri.debian.net/debian buster-ussuri-backports-nochange main *OR* from this server (which contains all release of OpenStack since the Kilo release): deb http://osbpo.debian.net/debian buster-ussuri-backports main deb-src http://osbpo.debian.net/debian buster-ussuri-backports main deb http://osbpo.debian.net/debian buster-ussuri-backports-nochange main deb-src http://osbpo.debian.net/debian buster-ussuri-backports-nochange main Please make sure to configure your servers to use *both* buster-ussuri-backports and buster-ussuri-backports-nochange suites. The first one contains packages maintained by the Debian OpenStack team, while the later are backports of packages maintained by other people in Debian (like those maintained in the Debian Python Module Team, but not only). Still missing from this release... - vitrage-dashboard: There's some new XStatic packages to make, work is ongoing. - some neutron plugins: Many aren't released yet... - heat: It just got released a few hours ago, and I didn't have time yet to figure out what's wrong with these 3 unit tests: http://paste.openstack.org/show/792781/ Hopefully, this will be addressed tomorrow. Note that OCI, the Debian cluster installer for OpenStack, already supports that version (that's how I launched my first instance), and is running the latest version of all puppet modules of puppet-openstack: https://salsa.debian.org/openstack-team/debian/openstack-cluster-installer Some fun statistics: 187 packages were updated in the OpenStack team's Git repository to make this release (plus some updates of packages not within the team). Note that the last piece of software (cinder) was converted to uwsgi, so this release comes with absolutely all API servers running under uwsgi. Please try these packages and report bugs to the Debian BTS as usual, so we can fix as many bugs as possible before the final release. Some packages are still waiting for the FTP master's approval before they can reach Debian proper. Noticeably, many Tempest plugins (as I decided to package them all in Debian). 6 of these are pending, and probably more will be packaged. Stay tuned. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

[neutron] Low-throughput over high-latency connections
by Eric K. Miller 28 Apr '20

28 Apr '20

Hi, I'm at a loss after quite a bit of testing, so thought I'd see if someone has any ideas... We have a Stein cluster that was/is deployed with Kolla Ansible with DVR without OVS+DPDK - rather just the standard kernel OVS. Everything appears to work well with low-latency local and Internet destinations, but as the latency increases, throughput drops significantly. I would have blamed the standard bandwidth-delay product and TCP window size not being large enough, etc., but that definitely isn't the issue, since we have shown that VMs on our VMware clusters (VLAN-based, not NSX-based) do not have the issue and use the same many-10Gbps-connected ISPs to our routers as the OpenStack configuration. I am using a Vultr machine in London as a test destination since the latency is around 86ms - a good high-latency test. The good environment we are testing against: Using iperf3 with 1 thread on a VMware VM results in an average of 155Mbits/sec sent to Vultr London with a few retries recorded that lower the window size to around 1.78MiBytes. This is roughly what we expect, if not more, with faster machines. The problem: Performing the same test on a "much" faster server (E-2288G based, without hyperthreading enabled, so 4.5GHz on all 8 cores), with no other VMs on it, a VM with iperf3 with 1 thread results in an average of only around 32Mbits/sec with a window size that drops significantly at the start and increases to only about 386KiBytes before retries start to happen. This average does not change when using other machines in our cluster, including some Xeon Gold and EPYC processor machines. The only thing I can point to is OVS and/or something in Linux. However, both tests (VMware and KVM) were performed with the same fresh installation and configuration (CentOS 7 with all updates and the standard kernel). So, my doubts are that it has something to do with Linux. On the physical host, the vhost process barely registers any CPU usage, and neither does the VM - as expected on such a fast machine. I even tried to enable multiqueue, since we had it disabled. With a 2 vCPU VM, ethtool -l eth0 displays that 2 queues are in use. Same results - 32Mbits/sec throughput to Vultr London. All machines are connected via 100Gbps or 25Gbps connections with Mellanox Connect-X 4 and 5 cards with Mellanox switches, and iperf can saturate these links between the physical hosts when run on the physical hosts' CentOS. No errors (tx errors, rx errors, packet loss, etc.) are being reported on any of the logical or physical links. I thought a queue got full somewhere, so I looked for where queues were used and found that virtio has a tx_queue_size that can be adjusted, but unfortunately, it appears this can only be done with vhost-user, which I believe is specific to OVS+DPDK. The default tx_queue_size in virtio is 256 elements. I'm not sure what this represents, though, much less how to measure the queue usage statistics. Running iperf3 in "Reverse mode", so the Vultr London machine sends data back to the KVM VM, bandwidth averages around 254Mbits/sec! So the issue appears to be only in one direction - sending network traffic outbound. Running the same iperf3 test from the KVM VM to a Vultr machine that is very close to us (latency of 2ms or so), results in an average bandwidth of 373Mbits/sec, but with 39 retries per second on average. The window size never adjusts low enough to stop the retries - it averages 146KiBytes in size. Using "Reverse mode" results in an average of 1.21Gbits/sec! So, the OVS software isn't slow, but something is causing issues when transmitting data when latency is large - something that doesn't happen with the VMware VMs with the same network and Internet connections. Also, pings from the VMware and KVM VMs are nearly identical - so there isn't some crazy amount of latency caused by OVS - at least when it is essentially idle. I'm not sure where to go from here in terms of diagnostics. Any ideas? Thanks for any help, in advance! Eric

[tc][puppet][Glare] Propose retirement of puppet-glare
by Takashi Kajinami 27 Apr '20

27 Apr '20

Hi, Currently Glare[1] project is located under x instead of openstack, and IIUC this means that Glare is no longer maintained and has been retired already. [1] https://opendev.org/x/glare Regarding its status, I'll propose to retire puppet-glare[2] because it doesn't make sense to maintain a puppet module for the retired project. [2] https://github.com/openstack/puppet-glare May I ask TC to confirm my understanding about Glare project status ? Also, please let me know if anybody has concern with retiring puppet-glare. Thank you, Takashi Kajinami

[all] Virtual PTG Tooling Requirements & Suggestions
by Kendall Nelson 27 Apr '20

27 Apr '20

Hello Everyone :) We want to get your input on tooling for the PTG. We have a general idea of what we have for requirements, but wanted to get the community's input- i.e. make sure we aren't missing any. Here is the list of requirements we have right now[1]. Also, if anyone has suggestions of tools that meet these criteria, we would love to hear them! We are gathering and vetting options for the event and want to make sure nothing gets overlooked. -the Kendalls (diablo_rojo & wendallkaters) [1] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/virt-ptg-requirements

Openstacksdk
by Tom Schoonjans 27 Apr '20

27 Apr '20

Hi all, I am trying to use the openstacksdk to get a list of my projects. I have not been successful at doing this, as it always tries to get all projects, which doesn’t work for me as I am not an admin: the error message I get is "Policy doesn't allow os_compute_api:servers:detail:get_all_tenants to be performed." This is certainly possible though, because it works fine with the client: openstack project list --my-projects Any thoughts on how I can accomplish this? Many thanks in advance, Tom

[ironic]: multiple compute nodes
by fsbiz＠yahoo.com 27 Apr '20

27 Apr '20

Hi folks, We are seeing some weird issues with multiple compute nodes and would appreciate your thoughts. Background:We are on stable Queens.As part of an upgrade to accomodate 3X more servers, we decided to add three more compute nodes+ three more ICs for a total of 6 compute nodes and 6 ICs.As soon as we added these in preparation for the 3X increase in servers I am seeing weirdbehaviour. A general question to everyone:How many of you run your baremetal clouds with 5+ computes and ICs?Are things stable with the setup ? Logs and Analysis:all compute and conductor services are up and running. 1) Baremetal node c1bda753-d46c-4379-8d07-7787c2a4a7f2 mapped to sc-ironic08root@stg-cl1-dev-001:~# openstack hypervisor show c1bda753-d46c-4379-8d07-7787c2a4a7f2 | grep ironic | | service_host | sc-ironic08.nvc.nvidia.com 2)Mac address is 6c:b3:11:4f:8a:c0root@stg-cl1-dev-001:~# openstack baremetal port list --node c1bda753-d46c-4379-8d07-7787c2a4a7f2+--------------------------------------+-------------------+| UUID | Address |+--------------------------------------+-------------------+| a517fb41-f977-438d-8c0d-21046e2918d9 | 6c:b3:11:4f:8a:c0 |+--------------------------------------+-------------------+ 2)Provisioning starts: ironic06 receives the VIF update: WHY ?2020-04-21 15:05:47.509 71431 INFO ironic.conductor.manager VIF 657fea31-3218-4f10-b6ad-8b6a0fa7bab8 successfully attached to node c1bda753-d46c-4379-8d07-7787c2a4a7f2 ironic08 (correct one) also receives updates.[root@sc-ironic08 master_images]# tail -f /var/log/ironic/ironic-conductor.log | grep c1bda753-d46c-4379-8d07-7787c2a4a7f22020-04-21 15:08:04.943 27542 INFO ironic.conductor.task_manager [req-259b0175-65bc-4707-8c88-a65189a29954 - - - - -] Node c1bda753-d46c-4379-8d07-7787c2a4a7f2 moved to provision state "deploying" from state "wait call-back"; target provision state is "active" For now we have backed down to 3 and are stable again but I would really like to overprovision our computes and conductors if possible. Please let me know your thoughts and if anything rings a bell. thanks,Fred.
