[openstack-dev] [nova][resend with correct subject prefix] ask for usage of quota reserve

I used to submit a patch and retrieve the reservation of quota, got a -2
because it can expire :)

so, I guess expire do no harm unless the uncommitted / unrollbacked
reservation may occupy the quota
and lead to side effect on upcoming actions...

Best Regards!

      AFAIK, quota will expire in 24 hours

      cfg.IntOpt('reservation_expire',
                     default=86400,
                     help='Number of seconds until a reservation expires'),

      Best Regards!


hi Kevin,
but that is not reliable,  user/op can change the default value.
shall we just leave as the quota reservation there can do not
commit/rollback ?
I don't think there will be much more we can do.

      hi all,
      can anyone tell if we call quotas.reserve() but never call
      quotas.commit() or quotas.rollback().
      what will happen?

      for example:
            1. when doing resize, we call quotas.reserve() to reservea a
            delta quota.(new_flavor - old_flavor)
            2. for some reasons, nova-compute crashed, and not chance to
            call quotas.commit() or quotas.rollback() (called by
            finish_resize in nova/compute/manager.py)
            3. next time restart nova-compute server, is the delta quota
            still reserved , or do we need any other operation on quotas?

      Thanks in advance
      -Eli.


      ps: this is related to patch : Handle RESIZE_PREP status when nova
      compute do init_instance(https://review.openstack.org/#/c/132827/)
