I had thought, the week after the PTG 21:08:07 but probably if things get approved before then, we'll just start earlier 21:08:19 #link Stein PTG planning: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/nova-ptg-stein 21:08:33 add your topics to the planning etherpad ^ 21:08:46 I'll probably be going through soon to sort things into categories to help organize it 21:08:53 #link Rocky retrospective for the PTG: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/nova-rocky-retrospective 21:09:17 and the separate etherpad for the retro segment ^, also linked on the ptg planning etherpad 21:09:29 please feel free to add your thoughts and comments there for discussion at the ptg 21:09:40 that's all I have for reminders. anyone have anything else? 21:10:00 #topic Stable branch status 21:10:07 #link stable/queens: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/nova+branch:stable/queens,n,z 21:10:12 #link stable/pike: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/nova+branch:stable/pike,n,z 21:10:17 #link stable/ocata: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/nova+branch:stable/ocata,n,z 21:10:47 I had planned to propose stable releases last week, but in light of the recent issue with the slow live migrations, I've been waiting until those backports land first 21:11:04 once they do, I'll propose the stable releases for queens, pike, ocata 21:11:13 anyone have anything else for stable branch status? 21:11:37 #topic Subteam Highlights 21:12:08 cells v2, we skipped the meeting this week. dansmith, anything you wanted to call out? 21:12:23 not much, other than that the huawei boyz did some profiling on the ML, 21:12:33 found one not-cellsv2 bug and posted a fix 21:12:39 nice 21:12:49 I replied about their performance concerns, and have a patch up for the thing I told them was impossibly hard 21:13:14 and I think we have discussion fodder for this week until and maybe including a meeting next week, 21:13:17 but I haven't looked yet 21:13:18 that's all 21:13:41 ah, right. cells meeting agenda items to take a look at, on the meeting wiki 21:13:43 cool, thanks 21:13:51 efried: scheduler? 21:13:58 one sec 21:14:22 #link Scheduler meeting minutes http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/nova_scheduler/2018/nova_scheduler.2018-08-13-14.00.html 21:14:26 We had a busy meeting this week. 21:14:30 We noted that pupdate silence is not golden. 21:14:37 Stein is open; pushing to get 21:14:37 #link reshaper series https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bp/reshape-provider-tree+status:open 21:14:37 reviewed and merged quickly so we can get on with other nrp work 21:14:46 #link Gigantor SQL split and debug logging: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/590041/ 21:14:46 This has undergone internal reviews, so we sent a followup 21:14:52 #link request for reviews on placement debug logging to the dev ML http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2018-August/133290.html 21:14:52 and got a couple of positive responses. Let's merge this thing. It's definitely an improvement, and we can always tweak it later. 21:15:03 #link consumer generation handling (gibi) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/583667/ 21:15:03 has solidified quite a bit, and there's now a 21:15:03 #link dev ML thread discussing how we should handle consumer generation conflicts http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2018-August/133373.html 21:15:03 I believe gibi is PTO for a bit. 21:15:11 gibi also revived the 21:15:11 #link tests for nested and shared providers for initial & migration allocations, series starting at: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/585672 21:15:11 by folding it into the above. 21:15:28 sigh, spambotted again.
