whoami-rajatUbuntu 22.04 - py3.1014:19
whoami-rajatnext, Releasenotes for non-SLURP and SLURP releases14:20
whoami-rajat#link https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/release-management.html#release-notes-for-slurp-releases14:20
whoami-rajatrosmaita proposed this document for the SLURP and non-SLURP releasenotes which is easy to follow along14:21
whoami-rajati think it's intended for the PTL but just so others know what to look for in the upcoming release notes14:21
whoami-rajatas i understand from the document, here are the changes required for slurp and non-slurp releases14:22
whoami-rajatnon-SLURP: create a static file right after the release (2023.2)14:22
whoami-rajatSLURP: Add a link to the previous non-SLURP release notes (static file) in the prelude section14:22
rosmaitayeah, i am supposed to be working on automating that, but haven't got anything together yet14:22
whoami-rajati think the efforts required are pretty minimal and needs to be done once a release14:24
whoami-rajatthe main thing is we should not forget to do it, else everything looks good14:24
rosmaitayeah, if i don't get the automation done, i will at least send out reminders!14:24
whoami-rajatthat would be great14:26

whoami-rajatso please finalize your os-brick, cinderclient and feature changes14:26
whoami-rajatsince those are the main review targets for next couple of weeks14:27
whoami-rajatwe have a couple of patches in os-brick that would benefit from reviews14:28
whoami-rajathttps://review.opendev.org/q/project:openstack/os-brick+status:open+branch:master14:28
whoami-rajati will try to create an etherpad for the patches that we should target for the release14:28
whoami-rajatthat's all the announcements14:30
whoami-rajatlet's move to topics14:30
whoami-rajat#topic cinder-plugin-ceph-tempest job failing since 11 August14:30
whoami-rajatrosmaita, that's you14:30
rosmaitaok, topic title says it all14:30
rosmaitai believe this patch to cinderlib will fix it:14:31
rosmaita#link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinderlib/+/89151314:31
rosmaitathe gates are in a terrible state these days14:32
whoami-rajatrosmaita, thanks for fixing that, do we know how this dependency got introduced?14:33
rosmaitano, i looked at our handy requirements dashboard (line 83 on the agenda etherpad) but nothing changed since 11 august14:34
rosmaitamust be that one of our requirements requirements changed something and etcd3gw isn't loaded any more14:34
rosmaitacinderlib mostly relies on cinder's requirements.txt14:35
rosmaitaand cinder doesn't ask for the tooz extra14:35
rosmaitaor something changed in devstack maybe, because this only shows up in the devstack-based jobs, the straight cinderlib-functional tests don't run into this issue14:36
whoami-rajatok, yeah i think it was being indirectly installed from somewhere which isn't the case now so good to have it in cinderlib's requirements14:39
whoami-rajat+2ed, need another core to merge14:39
jungleboyjwhoami-rajat:  I will do.14:39
rosmaitathanks!14:39
eharneyis etcd3gw the only lock backend used for the tests?14:39
whoami-rajatthanks jungleboyj 14:40
eharneyor, is it used at all?14:40
rosmaitaeharney: i don't really know14:40
eharneyseems like we should be using file locks and this shouldn't cause a failure, but whatever gets it to pass for now is fine14:42
whoami-rajatnot sure either14:43
whoami-rajatthat's all the topics we had for today14:43
whoami-rajatlet's move to open discussion14:43
whoami-rajat#topic open discussion14:43
msaravan@rajat and others - do we need a blue print for this patch ? https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/886869 14:45
msaravanThere was one blueprint present long back, and we have implemented it for NetApp only now. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/cinder-volume-active-active-support14:46
whoami-rajatblueprints are generally good to have for tracking changes14:46
msaravanSo, wanted to know whether we need a new blueprinit for active-active support for netapp data ontap systems. 14:46
msaravanOkay, its very driver specific.  Will register a blueprint for this; 14:47
msaravanthank you; 14:47
whoami-rajatthis change is pretty minimal and driver specific so maybe we can give it a pass14:47
msaravanthank you :-) 14:47
whoami-rajatwould like to know what others think about it14:47
jungleboyjwhoami-rajat:  I think given that it is pretty small and driver specific we don't have to have the blueprint.14:49
jbernardi think the contained nature of adding support for an already defined feature, it's okay for no blueprint (personally)14:49
jungleboyjAlso it has reference to a spec for the implementation in the commit.14:49
jungleboyjIt should be good.14:50
whoami-rajatok, thanks for the inputs14:50
whoami-rajatmsaravan, looks like the patch is good and doesn't require a BP14:50
msaravanOkay, thank you whoami-rajat jungleboyj jbernard 14:50
jungleboyjAny concerns with me just merging that whoami-rajat then?14:55
whoami-rajatjungleboyj, do you mean the netapp patch? no concerns just it's dependent on a bunch of other fixes14:56
jungleboyjAh, I missed that.  Ok.  I added my +2.  :-)14:57
whoami-rajatthanks jungleboyj 14:57
msaravanthank you jungleboyj whoami-rajat 14:57
whoami-rajatwe are almost at the end of the hour14:58
msaravanwe need help in other pending reviews as well, they are captured at https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-bobcat-meetings14:58
whoami-rajatsure msaravan 14:58
whoami-rajatplease take a look at the review requests14:58
