| Continuity | A quick question, how are people dealing with replacing switches, when using an ML2 plugin, is there an ironic command to force config out to a switch again or a neutron command to do the same. | 16:23 |
| Continuity | Usually we take backups of our switches every 4 hours, but if something changes in that time it can be a pain to reconcile | 16:23 |
| TheJulia | That is not a thing we've ever done before, but it seems like it might make sense to have a force-rebind option, dunno | 16:39 |
| TheJulia | part of the conundrum, is there is no concept in neutron in resetting state, so the only real option we have is to explicitly unbind and rebind while it is running so we may impact workloads, but if you know the impacted workloads you could do it anyhow | 16:45 |
| TheJulia | since... unplanned switch swap | 16:45 |
| Continuity | Yeah the workload is going to be borked anyway | 18:19 |
| Continuity | So an unplanned unbind rebind isnt an issue | 18:20 |
| TheJulia | An easy path might be to rescue/unrescue or service/unservice the nodes, fwiw | 19:58 |
| Continuity | Ok yeah didnt think about that | 20:14 |
| Continuity | I shall give that a go as a first step | 20:14 |
| Continuity | Thanks TheJulia | 20:14 |
| TheJulia | You know, your the second person in the last year to raise this sort of question. I think that means we need an API endpoint. | 21:48 |
