Hi, As we agreed on the PTG I will send out short status update / focus-setting mail about notifications work items to the ML weekly. Bugs ---- There are couple of important outstanding bugs: [High] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1665263 The legacy instance.delete notification is missing for unscheduled instance. This is a regression introduced when the instance creation was moved to the conductor. Patch has couple of +1s but needs core attention https://review.openstack.org/#/c/437222/ [Medium] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1657428 The instance notifications are sent with inconsistent timestamp format. Fix is ready for the cores to review https://review.openstack.org/#/c/421981 [Medium] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1653221 Lazy loaded and uninitialized object fields are missing from the notification payloads. The patch needs review from the subteam https://review.openstack.org/#/c/415857/ Versioned notification transformation ------------------------------------- Plenty of transformation patches has been rebased to Pike and reviewed by the subteam. These are easy to review patches so let's focus on merging the below short list this week: * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/384922 Transform instance.rebuild notification * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/396621 Transform instance.rebuild.error notification * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/382959 Transform instance.reboot notification There are a long list of patches that needs to be respin to target the new Pike blueprint versioned-notification-transformation-pike Searchlight integration ----------------------- Listing instances ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Matt proposed a patch to list instances using searchlight https://review.openstack.org/#/c/441692/ . Separate ML thread has bee started to sort out the open issues: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2017-March/113355.html . bp additional-notification-fields-for-searchlight ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 4 patch from blueprint additional-notification-fields-for-searchlight has been reviewed by the subteam and waiting for core review https://review.openstack.org/#/q/label:Code-Review%253E%253D1+status:open+branch:master+topic:bp/additional-notification-fields-for-searchlight The blueprint needs discussion about how to model BlockDeviceMapping in the instance notifications. Other items ----------- Short circuit notification payload generation ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Code review is ongoing to short circuit notification payload generation if the notifications are not configured to be emitted to avoid unnecessary load (e.g. db load). There is a generic patch on oslo_messaging that needs some iteration https://review.openstack.org/#/c/441221 and then the nova patch can be adapted to the new oslo feature https://review.openstack.org/#/c/428260/ bp json-schema-for-versioned-notifications ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The implementation progressed in Ocata but the bp hasn't been reproposed to Pike yet as we need somebody to pick up the implementation work for Pike. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/json-schema-for-versioned-notifications -- The notification subteam holds it's weekly meeting on Tuesday 17:00 UTC on openstack-meeting-4 so the next meeting will be held on 7th of March https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20170307T170000 Cheers, gibi
