Re: Issue Adding OpenStack-Helm Repository via Helm

Note this email was originally sent to the incident list, but I'm following up here on the public list as this is not a security concern. On 11/21/25 8:05 AM, Francesco La Porta wrote: > I am experiencing an issue when trying to add the OpenStack-Helm > repository using Helm. Running the following command: helm repo add > openstack-helm https://tarballs.opendev.org/openstack/openstack-helm > <https://tarballs.opendev.org/openstack/openstack-helm> > > returns the following error: > > Error: looks like "https://tarballs.opendev.org/openstack/openstack-helm > <https://tarballs.opendev.org/openstack/openstack-helm>" is not a valid > chart repository or cannot be reached: context deadline exceeded > (Client.Timeout or context cancellation while reading body) > > > This occurs consistently and prevents me from using the OpenStack-Helm > charts via Helm. > > Could you please confirm if there is an ongoing issue with the > repository or advise on any alternative methods to access the charts? This is probably not an intended behavior, but is unfortunately an expected one. The issue here is an underlying artifact of using Apache2 mod_autoindex to build index.html content on the fly from data backed by OpenAFS in a directory with thousands of entries. Opening this URL with wget and my browser takes about 3 minutes and 12 seconds. OpenAFS performs poorly with many thousands of entries and to make things worse Apache is stat'ing the directory entries to include modification times and file sizes in the generated index which takes time. The good news is I think you can workaround this today using the --timeout option to `helm repo add` and the OpenStack Helm team can change how they manage their Helm repository to improve its performance. `helm repo add` has a default timeout of 2 minutes. Given my testing says fetching this data takes around 3 minutes 12 seconds I think if you set the timeout to say 5 minutes using --timeout you should be able to fetch the data (if slowly). Separately, the OpenStack Helm team needs to stop writing all of this data to a single directory. Currently there are just under 15k entries in the directory. In addition to slowness stat'ing thousands of files OpenAFS directories have a hard limit on total entries between 15k and 60k based on the lengths of the filenames. We estimate the current limit for that directory is about 32k. Instead what they should be doing instead is sharding the data into subdirectories. For example the current file at openstack/openstack-helm/nova-2025.2.0+f6be959ce.tgz could instead be stored at openstack/openstack-helm/nova/2025.2.0/nova-2025.2.0+f6be959ce.tgz then openstack/openstack-helm/index.yaml should be updated to match. Doing this will drastically cut down on the total number of entries in each directory which will improve performance and avoid the hard limits. Now I recognize that you aren't going to fix that for them, and I can't either. I think a good next step would be for you to engage with the OpenStack Helm team directly and point out that this is both problematic for you and that there is something they can do to fix it. That team lists communication options here: https://docs.openstack.org/openstack-helm/latest/readme.html#communication and you should feel free to refer to this email thread or quote it when you reach out to them. An archived version of this email should show up in https://lists.opendev.org/archives/list/service-discuss@lists.opendev.org/ shortly after you receive it. Clark

Team Meeting Agenda for October 28, 2025
by Clark Boylan 28 Oct '25

28 Oct '25

I know the PTG is happening this week which might make this a bit tough, but it has been a while since we had a meeting so I want to ensure we get a chance to cover what is happening in OpenDev. We will meet with this agenda on October 28, 2025 at 19:00 UTC in #opendev-meeting: == Agenda for next meeting == * Announcements * Actions from last meeting * Specs Review * Topics ** Gerrit 3.11 Upgrade Planning (clarkb 20250401) *** https://www.gerritcodereview.com/3.11.html *** Please check this for any concerns with the way we use Gerrit. *** Need to hold new test nodes after some Zuul launcher updates cleared out the old ones. *** There is discussion about replication and reindexing bugs in 3.11.4/3.12.1 that don't affect us yet due to being on 3.10. We should try to test these problems to see if they affect us. **** Clarkb tested this with held notes on admittedly trivial test data sets but was unable to reproduce the problems *** Shutting down Gerrit can race the indexing of new changes. If this happens we can have new changes created that are not indexed leading to multiple changes with the same changeid later. To mitigate this we can/should reindex changes on Gerrit startup. *** Gerrit shutdown remain plagued by large h2 cache files. Seems removing our long timeout was not enough to prevent shutdowns timing out. *** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/gerrit-upgrade-3.11 Planning Document for the eventual Upgrade *** Will need to select a date once we know more about the upgrade itself. ** Gerrit Spontaneous Shutdown During Summit (clarkb 20251028) *** The Gerrit server was discovered to be in a shutdown state with no recorded errors *** The Nova team indicates this could happen if the hypervisor is unable to allocate memory. The host would be shutdown and Nova would notice but not record an error *** Its possible the underlying cause is something else; either way we need to work with Vexxhost to identify the source of the problem and mitigate it ** Upgrading Old Servers (clarkb 20230627) *** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-bionic-server-upgrades *** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-focal-server-upgrades *** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-server-replacement-sprint **** wiki.openstack.org: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-mediawiki-upgrade **** tonyb looking at cacti after wiki *** Next on the list are graphite and backup servers *** Can probably spin up new backup servers alongside the old ones then migrate the old volumes off the old servers to the new ones and finally delete the old servers. Just need to double check borg version support matrix details and also what adding new backup servers will do to our cron job setups for backups. *** Remember to use launch-node's --config-drive flag when booting new Noble nodes in Rax Classic ** AFS mirror content cleanup (clarkb 20250916) *** Can we automate cleanups for reprepro content? In other words are the steps cheap enough during the noop case to run with our regular reprepro update script? *** Additional volumes to look into cleanups for include ceph, docker, and puppetlabs package mirrors as well as our python wheel caches *** CentOS 9 Stream grows at a rate that requires regular quota bumps. Is there anything we can do about that? *** With these cleanups and server upgrades completed we can probably start to consider adding new mirrors again. **** Trixie, CentOS 10 Stream, Rocky Linux ? ** Zuul Launcher Updates (clarkb 20250923) *** NODE_FAILURES created by a bug in zuul-launcher **** https://review.opendev.org/c/zuul/zuul/+/964893 is the fix which we should roll out as soon as it has merged ** Moving OpenDev Synchronous Communication to Matrix (clarkb 20250520) *** The spec (954826) has merged. *** clarkb will start working on this as soon as time permits. ** Etherpad 2.5.1 Upgrade (clarkb 20250805) *** https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/blob/v2.5.1/CHANGELOG.md *** There is an even newer 2.5.1 release. We'll need to recycle the test nodes and check if CSS has improved *** Note we shouldn't upgrade until after the PTG as the event relies on etherpad. ** Gitea 1.24.7 Upgrade (clarkb 20251028) *** https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/964899/ Upgrade Gitea to 1.24.7 ** Gitea Performance (clarkb 20251028) *** https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/964728 Don't allow direct backend access **** Some performance issues seem related to crawlers hitting backends directly so they aren't balanced properly **** Most recent issue was via traffic to the load balancer frontend so this won't fix everything **** Means we'll have to take extra steps to test backends directly (ssh port forwards) ** PBR Updates to Handle Setuptools Deprecations (clarkb 20251028) *** Heads up setuptools has an October 31 deadline for no longer relying on easy_install tooling *** https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/pbr/+/964712/ and children aim to address this * Open discussion

Hi Tony and Sean, Thanks for your instructions. I've reset my original commit, and changed to a new txt file with link to the video inside. But new problem happens which needs your help. Now the issue has changed to following. Seem like some configuration isn't right. And for the required command and response: --------------------------------------- 赵奇慧中国移动通信研究院网络所手机：13810659120 邮箱：zhaoqihui(a)chinamobile.com ----邮件原文---- 发件人：Tony Breeds 收件人："赵奇慧" 抄　送: service-discuss 发送时间：2025-10-27 10:22:01 主题：Re: git review issue On Sat, 25 Oct 2025 at 01:03, 赵奇慧 wrote: > > Dear experts, > > I'm trying to upload a demo video under cfn/computing-native repo. The demo video is about 25MB. It seems like I've successfully done "git add" and "git commit", but unable to get feedback from server when doing "git review". The following figure shows the situation. May I ask for help or instructions on this? Hello Qihui, As Sean has replied, binary objects are not handled super well with gerrit. Having said that git review should definitely do more than your screenshots show. Can you please reply with the output from the following commands. * git review --version * git remote -v * git review -v That will help us diagnose the issue. Yours Tony.
