Anoop_Shukla++15:23
carlossawesome15:24
carlossthat's all I had for $topic. Is there an announcement you'd like to share?15:25
carloss#topic Review Focus15:27
carloss#link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/manila-indri-review-focus (Indri Review Focus etherpad)15:28
carlossour new review focus etherpad is ready to be populate with more changes15:28
carlossour biggest priority right now is share server replication15:28
carlosswe deferred from the previous cycle but there's nothing stopping us from merging it earlier15:29
gouthamrwe should move the spec15:30
carloss++15:30
gouthamrthese couple of patches can use some eyes:15:31
gouthamr#link https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22remove-sqlalchemy-utils%22+project:openstack/manila15:31
carloss++15:32
carlossi've stopped halfway through the review15:32
gouthamrty, can’t think of anything else - been extremely distracted to make any other meaningful progress here15:34
carloss++15:34
carlosslot's happening15:34
carlosswe also deferred some merges to past final RC15:34
gouthamrI’ll add a tech debt topic to cover our favorites: Eventlet removal and SRBAC15:35
carlossI'll do some review festivities and start pressing buttons soon15:35
carlossgouthamr: ack, thank you15:35
carlosseventlet is present, and we definitely need SRBAC15:35
Anoop_ShuklaDo we have any use case documents on AI workloads being used with Manila shares?15:36
carlossAnoop_Shukla: good question15:37
Anoop_ShuklaOr a whitepaper?15:37
carlossbut I'd say not as part of manila official docs, no15:37
carlossit'd be a nice doc if someone is willing to contribute though15:37
carlossit's a hot topic and we're increasing our support and efficiency for AI/ML workloads15:38
gouthamrit’d be great to work on one15:38
Anoop_ShuklaYeah..NAS is a prime usecase for AI and I was wondering how HPC operators are using Manila in conjuncture.15:39
carloss++15:39
Anoop_ShuklaWas also looking to connect some dots for our upcoming platform support AFX15:39
carlossif we're focusing on the usage, it feels like we'd benefit from some time with operators to discuss15:40
Anoop_ShuklaOpen question if any operators are reading this and would want to collaborate..15:40
carloss++15:40
carlosswe used to have an operator hour at the PTG - maybe we should look into something similar?15:41
carlossor request feedback through openstack-discuss to get started15:41
Anoop_ShuklaHmmm15:41
Anoop_ShuklaThst would be a good start15:42
Anoop_ShuklaDo we want to keep a topic on security during ptg?15:42
carlossI'll send an email to the mailing list and start with an etherpad... also will email some known operators and hopefully we can have good material15:43
Anoop_ShuklaCool..thanks Carlos15:43
carlossAnoop_Shukla: yep, security is another hot topic15:44
carlossI think the bug that surfaced for drivers https/tls connection is already enough material for us to get started with a topic15:44
carlossI'll add it to the parking lot and try finding a slot for it15:45
Anoop_ShuklaWe can keep that to enforce the stance so that driver maintainers are aware that its a ticking time bomb15:45
carloss++15:46
carlossanything else before we switch topics?15:47
gouthamron the security topic, maybe we need a proposal15:48
gouthamri can think of a couple of things we ought to do:15:49
gouthamrclarify our threat model in-tree (and perhaps fix misinformation in the security guide) 15:49
gouthamrtake action on errant drivers somehow to avoid folks stepping on the tripwire of security issues15:50
vharigouthamr++ this is a great topic can we cover more at PTG?15:51
gouthamri'd like to avoid security bugs being opened and becoming a problem for the VMT/coresec to triage where we don't have a clear picture of security assumptions15:51
gouthamryeah, sounds like a good topic.. at least to brainstorm and evolve a plan for indri15:51
vhariack, general  approach and guidelines to  consider (not share bug details)15:52
* gouthamr adds topic, voluntells anoop15:52
carlossagreed15:52
carlossgood stuff :)15:53
carlossthank you folks15:53
carlossand thanks for bringing this up, Anoop_Shukla 15:53
carlossuhm, sorry... my networking issues at the beginning of the meeting left us little time for bug triage :(15:55
carlossvhari: is there something urgent for today?15:55
vharinothing urgent can skip due to time .. pls note etherpad 2 new bugs to minor triage 15:56
vhariback to you carloss 15:56
carlossvhari: thank you! both were reported by hongp15:57
vhari#link https://bugs.launchpad.net/manila/+bug/2169334 and #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/manila/+bug/216970315:57
vhariack 15:57
