| jbernard | hey everyone, this might be a quick meeting today | 14:05 |
| Jyotsna | o/ | 14:05 |
| jbernard | periodic jobs are all looking good | 14:05 |
| jbernard | i wanted to raise the topic of a second midcycle meeting | 14:06 |
| jbernard | we aren't required to hold one, but we typically do and I think it would be useful | 14:06 |
| jbernard | i wanted to ask about timing, what works for everyone? we could sort it out here, i could send out a time poll, any preferences? | 14:07 |
| agalica | not at 7am :( lol | 14:08 |
| jbernard | lol, ok so one strong vote for /very/ early :) | 14:08 |
| agalica | you joke, but I'd rather it be 4am, haha | 14:09 |
| jbernard | oof, that would be 7am my time, that's too early :P | 14:10 |
| agalica | :P | 14:10 |
| jbernard | ok, i will take a look at the remaining calendar and propose a date and time before next week's meeting | 14:11 |
| jbernard | will aim for something similar to what we've done previously | 14:11 |
| jbernard | #topic open discussion | 14:12 |
| agalica | It would be highly appreciated if anyone can respond to my query on the mailing list: "[Cinder/Nova, NVME-TCP] Issue with multipath and devstack" | 14:13 |
| Jyotsna | HPE Alletra MP new driver patch https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/969373 (Recieved +2 and workflow +1 and ready for merge) | 14:13 |
| harsh | hi.. is erlon around ? | 14:13 |
| agalica | asuming you know the answer, anyway | 14:13 |
| agalica | assuming* | 14:13 |
| Jyotsna | HPE Alletra MP new driver patch https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/969373 (Recieved +2 and workflow +1 and ready for merge) But have dependency on requirement patch https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/requirements/+/974322 Received +1 and awaiting +2 from core reviewers, assuming once we have +2 from 2 reviewers , new driver patch will also merge | 14:13 |
| opendevreview | Thomas Goirand proposed openstack/cinder master: Improve heartbeats: RPC pings https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/971710 | 14:14 |
| jbernard | agalica: i just saw that yesterday, it went into spam for me for some reason... I had a working test config at some point | 14:14 |
| harsh | there are a few reviews in https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-hibiscus-reviews that are on hold for CI to pass. These reviews have received one +2 and the CI is also green. The reviews are the last ones with (harsh) in Bugs and Features section. | 14:15 |
| harsh | would really appreciate if i can get a second +2 :) | 14:15 |
| agalica | jbernard: I'm guessing the issue is that multipath=False is continually being sent, but I'm out of ideas on how to fix that | 14:15 |
| Jyotsna | <jbernard> can you please convey this to core reviewers sean.mcginnis@gmail.com and frickler@offenerstapel.de for +2 approvals. | 14:15 |
| jbernard | agalica: i remember testing gorka's patches, we had a local.conf that enabled multipath and I remember it working in our test env | 14:16 |
| jbernard | agalica: for nvme-tcp | 14:17 |
| agalica | jbernard: if you can find that it would be highly appreciated :) | 14:17 |
| jbernard | agalica: no sure about root cause, ill try to find my config and see if it still works | 14:18 |
| jbernard | agalica: it's been quite a while | 14:18 |
| agalica | jbernard: thanks | 14:18 |
| mhen | hi | 14:18 |
| mhen | was anybody aside from eharney able to look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/2161646 ? | 14:19 |
| jbernard | harsh: ack, i've been sick/pto for the last few days but will try to take a look this afternoon | 14:19 |
| harsh | jbernard: thanks :) | 14:19 |
| mhen | I haven't gotten around to trying the patchset he linked but I'd like to try in the coming days to see if that might fix it | 14:19 |
| jbernard | mhen: i have been sick so i haven't checked on that one, i remember seeing his patch though, worth a try for sure | 14:20 |
| mhen | ack | 14:21 |
| jbernard | mhen: if it doesn't address the issue, im guessing eric would want to know about the remaining gaps | 14:22 |
| jbernard | so a useful experiment either way | 14:22 |
| erlon | \o | 14:23 |
| erlon | @harh, was distracted :) | 14:23 |
| zigo | o/ | 14:23 |
| Jyotsna | <jbernard> we need attention of reviewers on HPE new driver patch, updated the meeting https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-hibiscus-reviews | 14:24 |
| Jyotsna | requirement patch https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/requirements/+/974322 Received +1 and awaiting +2 from core reviewers, assuming once we have +2 from 2 reviewers , new driver patch will also merge | 14:24 |
| harsh | erlon: no problem :) just wanted to let you know that CI is passed and there are +2s on the patches. | 14:24 |
| jbernard | Jyotsna: yes, i'm very aware, i know folks have it on their todo list | 14:25 |
| Jyotsna | ok thanks | 14:25 |
| erlon | harsh: watch patches are those? | 14:25 |
| harsh | https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-hibiscus-reviews - Bugs section for (harsh) | 14:26 |
| harsh | Also two important patches in Features section. Our upcoming features such as Policy Based High Availability and Policy Based Replication are highly dependent on these two patches. We have got multiple +1s and CI is also green. Customers have tested and passed as well. | 14:27 |
| zigo | FYI, I'll package python3-hpe-storage-flowkit-py right away for Debian. | 14:28 |
| erlon | got them | 14:28 |
| jbernard | zigo: nice | 14:31 |
| zigo | Weird, the upstream repo doesn't even have a pyproject.toml or a setup.py. | 14:32 |
| zigo | How is one supposed to package that ?!? | 14:32 |
| Jyotsna | jbernard: just one last query is it possible to get the driver patch merged before requirement patch? or it is mandatory | 14:32 |
| Jyotsna | zigo: Driver patch https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/969373 has pyproject.toml | 14:33 |
| jbernard | Jyotsna: i think the driver depends on the requirement patch so that the gate will pass | 14:34 |
| Jyotsna | ok | 14:34 |
| jbernard | Jyotsna: we will need to maintain that dependency | 14:34 |
| Jyotsna | sure thanks | 14:34 |
| fqi | Hi, I really appreciate it if someone can review these patches for the "retype volume including snapshots" feature. | 14:35 |
| fqi | Cinder-spec:https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder-specs/+/989322 | 14:35 |
| zigo | Jyotsna: I know Cinder has a pyproject.toml, but the HPE python module does not. See: | 14:35 |
| zigo | https://github.com/hpe-storage/hpe_storage_flowkit_py | 14:35 |
| zigo | Seeing this python module state, I'd vote AGAINST including it. | 14:36 |
| zigo | There's some "magic" that isn't included in the github repo, that's really bad practice. | 14:37 |
| jbernard | zigo: can you post this on the review so others can see it, i know not everyone can make the meeting | 14:38 |
| zigo | Will do. | 14:38 |
| jbernard | that way we can iterate as efficiently as possible | 14:38 |
| jbernard | zigo: thanks! | 14:38 |
| Lucas_ | Hi all, I'd like to kindly ask for more reviews on my patch: Fujitsu Driver: Improve Snap Pool selection https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/910494 | 14:39 |
| Lucas_ | It has passed CI (+1) and already has assigned reviewers (Raghave... and saikrishna). Your feedback and +2 would be very helpful to get it merged. Thanks! | 14:39 |
| jbernard | Lucas_: ack, added it to tehh review etherpad | 14:40 |
| Lucas_ | thanks a lot! That's very helpful. | 14:41 |
| Anoop_Shukla | @jbernard: I have a question wrt pool management in Cinder. Is there a reason we do not have APIs to manage pools in Cinder? It happens via looped call to driver via ssc update. But if a user wants to manually manage the pools without cinder volume service restart, there is no way. | 14:41 |
| harsh | jayaanand: Could you please look into this, thanks :) [SVf] lsportip needs to fetch IPs with "host" flag | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/869305 | 14:42 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Most of the other cloud solutions - including cloudstack have these APIs to manage pool. | 14:42 |
| jbernard | Anoop_Shukla: ohh, i don't think i was around when those choices were made, what operations are wanted? | 14:43 |
| Anoop_Shukla | I would recommend to have a CRUD API support which can manage all operations - adding a backend pool, deleting a backend pool, extending a backend pool etc.. | 14:43 |
| zigo | Since everyone is doing it, my turn... :) | 14:43 |
| zigo | I also would appreciate reviews on this patch: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/979641 | 14:43 |
| zigo | It's been stuck for a few weeks, even though it's almost a one-liner, and it's addressing a real bug. | 14:43 |
| jbernard | zigo: ack | 14:44 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Driver can manage the respective configs for pool management..cinder orchestrates it | 14:44 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Today pool management relies on name pattern matching or fixed pool design to workaround it | 14:44 |
| jbernard | Anoop_Shukla: im guessing we didn't forsee wanting to manage those dynamically at runtime | 14:44 |
| Anoop_Shukla | But the ssc update only happens hourly and a cloud backend can suddenly go out of space if bulk provisioning is done | 14:45 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Is there a room for discussion on these APIs..as a proposal (may be during mid cycle) to see if we can gather the feasibility for such APIs? | 14:45 |
| agalica | I personally think that would be a pretty radical change since at this time the configuration file is read only | 14:46 |
| jbernard | Anoop_Shukla: midcycle would be the place for that topic | 14:46 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Sure..let me find a slot to discuss this. @agalica - I did not understand what you meant by radical change? | 14:47 |
| jbernard | Anoop_Shukla: preping folks for the dicsussion would be good, so we're not looking at git history and api calls mid-discussion | 14:47 |
| Anoop_Shukla | I have seen complaints that Cinder can only handle it on an hourly basis..and they are pretty dynamically looking to automate the pool management | 14:48 |
| agalica | Annop_Shukla: I just mean that openstack configuration files are all read-only in terms of openstack opepration. So to add new pools would require that they become read/write, which to me is a big deal. | 14:48 |
| agalica | that's all | 14:48 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Also, if I want to do it immediately - ssc updates are non-configurable or other option is restart driver | 14:48 |
| Anoop_Shukla | I am not proposing adding a new backend.. | 14:49 |
| agalica | I know | 14:49 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Its about managing the pools within a backend | 14:49 |
| agalica | I don't know what SSC is though, so maybe I can just be ignored | 14:49 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Where customers rely on patten matching and ssc update updates backed pool config every hour | 14:49 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Hmm..trying to find some solutions to limitations on netapp driver..where we configure FlexVolumes (containers) as pools for a backend. | 14:51 |
| Anoop_Shukla | NetApp driver dynamically manages this limitation by allowing users to configure a naming pattern that periodically polls the backend to find if new FlexVolumes are added on storage system..if there are - we add the pool and perform capability discovery hourly.. | 14:53 |
| jbernard | i remember something related to ssc pool management coming up before, i think there was a spec, or at least meeting logs, will try to find | 14:55 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Thanks @jbernard. I will prep an ether pad to discuss it in mid cycles | 14:56 |
| jbernard | Anoop_Shukla: I will add content for second midcycle here: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-hibiscus-midcycles | 14:57 |
| jbernard | Anoop_Shukla: if you can get your info there, ill move it around | 14:57 |
| jbernard | 1 minute, last call for the things and the stuff | 14:59 |
| fqi | Also, We found two issues related to volume retype with migration between an LVM backend and a generic NFS backend https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/2160206 | 14:59 |
| fqi | The patches to fix the issue are awaiting review. Any help would be greatly appreciated. | 14:59 |
| fqi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/996728 | 14:59 |
| fqi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/996727 | 14:59 |
| jbernard | fqi: im sure eric will want to be a part of those reviews, as he's interested in nfs, but i know he's busy, ill mention it when i get a chance | 15:00 |
| fqi | Got it. Thank you very much. | 15:01 |
| Anoop_Shukla | Added the topic at the top. We can work with the slot. | 15:01 |
| jbernard | Anoop_Shukla: cool | 15:02 |
| jbernard | ok, we're at time | 15:02 |
| jbernard | thank you everyone | 15:02 |
