I'm new at all this. And I don't grok Python, so I'm reluctant to push something I don't understand. 16:35:28 I'm assuming there is no CI test for Zookeeper, or it would be obvious that ZK is broken. 16:35:34 ok anyone here familiar with zookeeper? 16:35:38 so that's another risk. 16:35:42 stratuspaulg: well, the nice thing about review is it won't go in without several people looking at it who do know the code 16:35:50 wendear: good to know 16:36:23 and, you'll have an opportunity to respond to comments, and even upload revised versions of the patch if you need to 16:36:30 stratuspaulg: the process is that you publish a patch and several people review it - including people who are familar with the area (core reviewers). Only until 2 of them approve does it get merged 16:37:01 so I should take a deep breath and push it? I feel dumb asking, but those steps are presumably documented on the wiki. 16:37:06 you would need to get it into juno and then propose a backport to icehouse. I think havana is done now so thats as far back as you could go 16:37:17 yes it's on a wiki - just a sec 16:37:18 tjones: ok 16:37:41 we don't need it in Havana. We would like it in Icehouse. 16:37:48 June first makes sense. 16:37:56 and, if you run into any questions from the wiki, we're around on #openstack-dev to answer 16:37:59 Is the process similar for adding a CI test? 16:38:12 wendar: beautiful! 16:38:26 still looking 16:38:53 wendar: do you happen to know here the processes is documented? I just can find this one https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Gerrit_Workflow 16:39:06 tjones: that would be the one 16:39:44 you may also find this one helpful: http://www.joinfu.com/2014/01/understanding-the-openstack-ci-system/ 16:39:45 stratuspaulg: it's such a small patch - it will be a good experience to do it ;-) 16:39:49 OK, I'll read up and it and give it a whirl. Many thanks to all of you. I'll notify openstack-dev if I have problems/questions. 16:40:04 tjones: sure. indeed. 16:40:17 stratuspaulg: good luck! 16:40:19 wendar: thanks 16:40:21 ok moving on 16:40:41 so i have already done the tagging and thought we could do something different this time 16:40:54 sorry for the long link - 16:40:55 https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?field.searchtext=&orderby=-importance&search=Search&field.status%3Alist=NEW&assignee_option=any&field.assignee=&field.bug_reporter=&field.bug_commenter=&field.subscriber=&field.structural_subscriber=&field.tag=&field.tags_combinator=ANY&field.has_cve.used=&field.omit_dupes.used=&field.omit_dupes=on&field.affects_me.used=&field.has_patch.used=&field.has_branches.used=&field.has_bran 16:41:07 this is the untriaged list 16:41:37 ah, good idea 16:42:04 there are 182 bugs here - so we will just scratch the serface 16:42:09 or surface 16:42:21 any progress is good 16:42:26 #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1311778 16:43:07 this one is marked critical by sdague 16:44:27 im not sure there is much to do done based on mridem's analysis. thoughts? 16:45:06 ISTR, they're working on it, and it is about slow VMs 16:45:11 the possiblity of masking a big issue makes me reluctant to just punt on it though 16:45:25 so, I don't think there's much we can do at the moment 16:45:44 I'm tempted to assign it to sdague, since he marked it critical 16:45:51 heh 16:45:53 but, should probably talk to him first 16:46:09 sdague: you want to take https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1311778 on?? 16:46:32 ok lets move on 16:46:45 #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1291471 16:47:58 this is on havana 16:48:05 does not happen on icehouse 16:48:45 should it be tagged for possible backport? 16:48:57 Incomplete seems appropriate, still. 16:49:01 wonder if it could be backported 16:49:20 because they are asking for more cinder logs? 16:50:47 wasn't able to retest on Icehouse, and yes, last entry was a request for more information 16:51:04 ok asked for the logs again and moved to incompelte 16:51:06 #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1129748 16:51:07 and, last input from the reporter was mid-April 16:52:28 this one also is old as the hills 16:52:51 seems stalled 16:52:55 yes 16:53:30 if we can verify it's not a problem in icehouse and beyond, maybe Incomplete and allowing it to die is best 16:54:34 maybe also checking in with packagers to see if this is a problem for them 16:54:49 i don't see why it would not be a problem in icehouse though. who are the packagers?? 16:55:08 I know them in Ubuntu and Debian, not sure on Fedora/RHEL. 16:56:19 zigo is Debian 16:56:26 Hi. 16:56:52 hi zigo, any thoughts on whether https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1129748 is a problem for packagers? 16:57:12 * zigo reads 16:58:38 I agree images shouldn't be world readable. 16:58:47 We would consider this as a security issue in Debian. 16:59:31 Do you think it can be fixed in OpenStack, or only in the packaging for each distro? 16:59:55 Even though a low importance one, as there's not so much use case for having a multi-user computer which also does compute workload. 17:00:11 :) 17:00:22 wendar: I think it's up to OpenStack to do that, cause the distro is only creating /var/lib/nova, nothing else. 17:01:07 thanks zigo. wendar i need to drop off to start my next meeting. thanks for your help today 17:01:22 zigo, okay, thanks 17:01:40 tjones: sounds like we need to contact xavier and see if he's planning on doing anything with this 17:01:47 tjones: I can do that 17:01:52 ok thanks 17:02:01 #endmeeting
