[manila] driver_handles_share_servers not recognized as boolean
by Francesco Di Nucci 31 Jan '25

31 Jan '25

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? Thanks in advance -- Francesco Di Nucci System Administrator Compute & Networking Service, INFN Naples Email: francesco.dinucci(a)na.infn.it

[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 29 Jan '25

29 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?

Nova
by engineer2024 28 Jan '25

28 Jan '25

Does nova support flavors where vcpus of a single flavor can be in mixed modes where some of them are pinned and the rest dedicated ? Say, a flavor has 5 vcpus, I want 2 of them to be of dedicated type and the remaining 3 vcpus to be shared

[neutron][upgrades] IPv6 Prefix Delegation 'dibbler' driver removal
by Brian Haley 28 Jan '25

28 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
