Hi, Here is the status update / focus settings mail for w38. Bugs ---- [Medium] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1699115 api.fault notification is never emitted We still have to figure out what is the expected behavior here based on: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2017-June/118639.html I think I will propose a patch to remove the api.fault notification to help start the discussion. [High] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1706563 TestRPC.test_cleanup_notifier_null fails with timeout [High] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1685333 Fatal Python error: Cannot recover from stack overflow. - in py35 unit test job The first bug is just a duplicate of the second. It seems the TetRPC test suite has a way to end up in an infinite recusion. I don't know about a way to reproduce it localy or to change the gate env so that python prints out the full stack trace to see where the problematic call is. Also adding extra log messages won't help as a timed out test doesn't have the log messages printed to the logs. So this bug is pretty stuck. Versioned notification transformation ------------------------------------- There are 3 transformation patches that only need a second +2: * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/454023/ Transform servergroup.create notification * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/483902/ Transform servergroup.delete notification * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/396210/ Transform aggregate.add_host notification Searchlight integration ----------------------- As we discussed on the PTG the Searchlight integration is not likely to happen in the near future so extending the nova notifications is not a priority. This means that we are not planning to add the 'status' field to the instance notifications. The other task in the current bp https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/additional-notification-fields-for-searchlight-queens is to avoid unnecessary BDM DB query when we emit instance notifications. We agreed that we want to do this as it is a meningful optimization of the current code. Patches already proposed and waiting for review: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bp/additional-notification-fields-for-searchlight-queens Small improvements ------------------ * https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:refactor-notification-samples Factor out duplicated notification sample data This is a start of a longer patch series to deduplicate notification sample data. The third patch already shows how much sample data can be deleted from nova tree. We added a minimal hand rolled json ref implementation to notification sample test as the existing python json ref implementations are not well maintained. Weekly meeting -------------- Next subteam meeting will be held on 19th of September, Tuesday 17:00 UTC on openstack-meeting-4. https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20170919T170000 Cheers, gibi
