16:25:00 <Slashme> #topic Freezer_Arguments
16:25:17 <Slashme> ping: szaher szaher_
16:25:52 <Slashme> With the move to olso comfig for the freezer-agent, we are thinking about reworking some freezer-agent parameters
16:26:16 <Slashme> The discussion about this is happening here: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Freezer_arguments
16:26:27 <Slashme> Feel free to participate
16:26:47 <szaher> Thanks
16:26:53 <szaher> Thanks Slashme
16:26:59 <reldan> I suppose we should delete absolete parameters. It may be the first step
16:27:39 <szaher> We need to group parameters in freezer agent to be able to manage them and to make the user life easy using theses parameters
16:27:39 <reldan> --list-containers,  --list-objects, GET_OBJECT, DST_FILE, upload
16:28:03 <Slashme> I agree.
16:28:39 <Slashme> Also I think we should remove the info commanf. It is not the role of the freezer-agent to list swift containers
16:28:58 <szaher> once we grouped the parameters we can make them available as cli or in config files in the same time without any effort
16:28:58 <reldan> I agree
16:29:48 <reldan> Agree as well
16:30:10 <szaher> Ok, here https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Freezer_arguments we need to group all related parameters together. Like some parameters are being used for lvm so it needs to be under lvm group in config opts
16:30:53 <szaher> and ofcourse there are some parameters which will be common parameters which can be used with any opteration backup, restore, like --debug for example
16:30:57 <reldan> I also think that restore-from-host == --hostname, --path-to-backup == --restore-abs-path
16:32:13 <Slashme> While we are speaking of parameters and options, do we want to support parallel storage with cli options or only using config files
16:33:22 <szaher> I don't think it will be applicable as we can miss which parameters to use with which storage
16:33:46 <szaher> or what do you think ?
16:34:19 <reldan> Parallel storage only with config file at the moment and no plans to add it to cli
16:34:33 <szaher> I think if we want to do it we can support it through an interactive cli which builds a config file and we pass it to freezer-agent as a normal job
16:36:12 <Slashme> I think it is good like this, only file for parallel backup.
16:36:13 <reldan> I actually cannot imagine a real guy, who wants to automate backup and interactive cli together :)
16:36:50 <drwho> +1
16:36:51 <Slashme> I don't like interactive stuff. Very hard to automate
16:37:16 <szaher> Agree :)
16:37:40 <Slashme> #topic DSVM gate job
16:38:31 <Slashme> We would like to activate DSVM testing on all repos : freezer and freezer-web-ui
16:38:42 <Slashme> How is that looking ?
16:38:49 <Slashme> ping daemontool vannif
16:39:12 <daemontool> currently it is only enabled as experimental on freezer-api
16:39:49 <daemontool> we need to have the same plugins usable on the other 2 repos
16:39:52 <daemontool> and have it voting
16:43:42 <Slashme> Okay.
16:44:21 <Slashme> Is it challenging?
16:48:16 <Slashme> Lets move on.
16:48:29 <Slashme> #topic liberty
16:48:49 <Slashme> On the wiki, we announced our liberty-compatible release for 18/12/2015 latest.
16:50:00 <Slashme> Are we still targeting this date ? There were some discussions about moving to sometime sooner.
16:50:27 <Slashme> What do we *need* to merge in liberty ?
16:50:27 <daemontool> I think we should
16:51:37 <Slashme> Plans were:
16:51:38 <Slashme> - parallel backup
16:51:38 <Slashme> - oslo.config and oslo.logging
16:52:32 <reldan> Parallel backup - I need your review https://review.openstack.org/#/c/247840/
16:52:42 <Slashme> daemontool: Why? Is that to facilitate us meeting mitaka releases ?
16:54:26 <daemontool> yes
16:55:41 <Slashme> We already missed mitaka-1 (Dec 1-3)
16:55:46 <daemontool> yes
16:55:53 <daemontool> I think we can join mitaka-2
16:55:57 <daemontool> I need to talk with Doug
16:56:12 <Slashme> mitaka-2 is targeted at Jan 19-21
16:56:41 <daemontool> Slashme:  yes
16:56:48 <daemontool> I think as soon as we have the parallel tested and working
16:56:52 <daemontool> we can branch
16:58:16 <daemontool> all, do you agree with that?
16:58:48 <Slashme> All: let's review and test the parallel storage patch: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/247840/
16:58:55 <daemontool> Slashme:  ty
16:59:00 <reldan> thanks
16:59:23 <Slashme> daemontool: So we would be targeting releasing liberty sometime next week ?
16:59:57 <daemontool> that's the idea yes
17:00:03 <daemontool> I think t is reasonable
17:00:47 <Slashme> Anyone against that ?
17:01:27 <Slashme> So let's try to do it next week and then work on Mitaka.
17:01:37 <Slashme> #topic free4all
17:01:58 <Slashme> Someone wants to add something ?
17:02:44 <Slashme> I know szaher wanted to create an interactive client to build configuration file for the freezer-agent.
17:03:26 <Slashme> I guess it could live in the freezer-agent repository as a utility.
17:04:18 <Slashme> szaher Do we already have a blueprint for that where we can discuss the feature ?
17:06:07 <szaher> No, I can create one if you want
17:06:34 <Slashme> We are running out of time.
17:06:57 <szaher> I will create it and will share it here in the room
17:07:10 <Slashme> That would be nice. Thank you
17:07:18 <Slashme> all: Thank you for your time.
17:07:42 <reldan> Thank you
