rbachman[m]Ops question: What would you say is a reasonable value for the mysql max_pool_size and max_overflow? Should the default be used in most cases, or is there some rule of thumb for scaling it? We're presently hitting our overflow of 40 from time to time, and I'm wondering if we have a bug somewhere.13:56
gthiemongerbachman[m]: TBH I have no idea. I guess that happens in the octavia worker, how many controller_worker.workers do you have there? do you know how many taskflow flows are handled concurrently there?14:43
gthiemongeI think the value of task_flow.max_workers is also important14:44
rbachman[m]gthiemonge: At present we have 2 controller_workers per node, in a cluster of 5 nodes. Is there a good way to see concurrent taskflows? Logs, or somewhere else?14:50
rbachman[m]rbachman[m]: taskflow max_workers is at the default of 5.14:51

rcruise-redhatThanks for running the PTG session @gthiemonge!16:03
gthiemongeit was a pleasure ;-)16:04
gthiemonge* Transition 2024.2 Dalmatian to End of Life16:04
gthiemonge2024.2 is moving to EOL16:04
gthiemongeI already approved the patch for Octavia16:04
gthiemongewe need to update the jobs of octavia-tempest-plugin to remove 2024.216:05
gthiemongeand I just noticed that the 2024.2 job in octavia-tempest-plugin started to fail, maybe a temporary issue that will be fixed when all the 2024.2 branches are EOL16:06
gthiemongewell, that's it with my announcements, did I miss anything?16:07
rcruise-redhatNothing from me16:07
gthiemongeack16:07
gthiemonge#topic Brief progress reports / bugs needing review16:07
gthiemongelot of reviews for me16:08
rcruise-redhatI've been working on rebasing this to master: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/octavia/+/98540416:09
gthiemongewe merged the patch that improves the data performance in the API BTW, that was a huge one16:09
rcruise-redhatIf anyone has time to review once I have it passing CI that would be great16:09
gthiemongeack16:09
gthiemongeI've spent some time looking at https://bugs.launchpad.net/octavia/+bug/201532016:10
gthiemongeI didn't find a clear solution as validation is performed in many component, I think the most elegant solution is to add a new method to the provider API (a method to delete the vip port in case of errors)16:11
gthiemongeof course this elegant solution is not backportable16:11
rcruise-redhatis michael's idea to add a cleanup step to the revert path an option?16:14
rcruise-redhatalthough, that is also probably not backportable16:14
gthiemongenop, the bug is in the octavia-api, not in the octavia-worker (I think he was talking about the revert methods in taskflow)16:15
rcruise-redhatAh16:15
rcruise-redhatYeah, makes sense then to confine the fix to the API16:16
gthiemongethe request never reaches the worker anyway :D16:16
gthiemonge#topic Open Discussion16:18
gthiemongeany other topics for this meeting?16:21
rcruise-redhatNo topics of interest from me16:21
raineszmo/ sorry I'm late. In another meeting right now. Nothing from me16:22
gthiemongeok then, thank you, and have a good one!16:22
