15:12:04 <enriquetaso> Welcome back!
15:12:05 <enriquetaso> Full list of bugs
15:12:06 <enriquetaso> #link http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-December/026351.html
15:12:10 <enriquetaso> We have two incomplete bugs and one regarding volume type.
15:12:24 <enriquetaso> #topic VolumeType cannot be deleted with image_volume_cache enabled
15:12:24 <enriquetaso> Summary: VolumeType cannot be deleted when "image_volume_cache_enabled = True" is set in "cinder.conf".
15:12:24 <enriquetaso> A new bug brings back an older bug. New bug:
15:12:24 <enriquetaso> #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1953704
15:12:57 <enriquetaso> oops, people is still joining
15:13:06 <enriquetaso> Older bug reported by Lee a while ago:
15:13:07 <enriquetaso> #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1823880
15:13:07 <enriquetaso> The tempest merged https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/tempest/+/637527 but cinder hasn't a fix proposed yet.
15:13:22 <enriquetaso> From Lee's comment: Reviewing the cinder code in this area shows that these cache volumes need to be manually deleted by an admin in order for them to then be considered evicted from the cache and no longer in use:
15:13:22 <enriquetaso> https://github.com/openstack/cinder/blob/master/cinder/volume/api.py#L508-L511
15:13:22 <enriquetaso> Lee suggests that we should automatically remove these when the last volume associated with this cached volume is removed.
15:14:40 <whoami-rajat> enriquetaso, i don't think so, it stores image inside it to optimize the operation, maybe at a later stage, we would like to create another volume from that image and expect the optimization
15:14:58 <eharney> later analysis in the bug rejects that idea
15:15:30 <enriquetaso> oh
15:15:37 <enriquetaso> sorry about that
15:17:19 <whoami-rajat> i do agree it's extra efforts to clear out the volume if we've removed the associated image in glance, then it serves no purpose, but how frequent a case like that occur?
15:18:52 <enriquetaso> OK, so we need a patch for this ^ and the bug report is valid.
15:19:07 <enriquetaso> I'll to add a note on 1953704
15:20:04 <whoami-rajat> i remember we had a discussion about APIs for operators to manage the cached images, that will be useful in this case
15:20:20 <whoami-rajat> but that's a time taking effort
15:20:37 <enriquetaso> the discussion was on 1823880? whoami-rajat
15:22:35 <whoami-rajat> this looks similar, i think that was for a midcycle topic when we want to pin images in cache
15:22:44 <whoami-rajat> maybe simondodsley proposed it
15:23:26 <whoami-rajat> but i won't waste much time of this meeting on it
15:24:13 <enriquetaso> I can look for that and add a reference on the new bug in case to have some more context in case anyone would like to work on that. Thanks whoami-rajat !
15:24:25 <enriquetaso> we don't have any other topic for today's meeting anyway :P
15:24:34 <whoami-rajat> np, thanks enriquetaso
