16:11:11 btw, here is the Agenda :) #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/Tacker#Meeting_Sep_24.2C_2015 16:11:25 .. for today's meeting 16:11:50 #topic Liberty Release Status 16:12:30 bobh: tbh: do you want to give a quick update on health-monitoring ? 16:13:13 sridhar_ram: I pushed the framework last night - it works as a complete replacement of the existing ping mechanism and also will translate existing templates that use ping into the new driver format 16:13:20 * sridhar_ram likes the rhyming irc handles for this tacker health-monitor subteam :) 16:13:45 also fixed the problem with monitoring hanging after a respawn - the thread was waiting on a lock it already had 16:14:11 Please review and provide feedback - I'm sure there are optimizations that need to be made 16:14:16 bobh: cool, I was suspecting a run-away lock as well 16:14:44 sridhar_ram: and deploying a new VNF while the monitor was locked would lock up the whole server 16:15:07 #link https://review.openstack.org/224384 16:15:15 bobh: I see, that's nasty 16:15:42 looking forward to all comments - I'm sure I have a lot to learn :-) 16:16:19 bobh: I'm sure we will have a productive review cycle...! 16:16:28 team - please help out 16:16:31 I am updating docs 16:16:50 And will modify http ping driver to test 16:17:38 tbh: http-ping is important - as it will validate the new loadable health-mon framework 16:18:38 in fact I was thinking if we need to leave a sample_health_mon driver that would .. say send event back to main tacker server and have it react to it 16:18:55 sridhar_ram: yeah I am syncing with ping driver 16:19:22 btw, I realized currently the only valid action we have is "respawn" 16:19:46 Yeah 16:19:48 sridhar_ram: There is also a "log_and_kill" 16:19:49 how easy it is to add a "log" action ? 16:20:15 sridhar_ram: Though if it's already dead not sure why we need to kill it... 16:20:15 bobh: that's cool, why kill ? 16:20:36 sridhar_ram: It was there already - I just left it in place :-) 16:20:49 bobh: I see :) 16:21:09 sridhar_ram: Would be nice to add a heat stack action-check / stack-update 16:21:24 sridhar_ram: that adds some additional complexity and relies on Kilo heat 16:21:31 I'm thinking bit generic where a health-mon driver captures a non-catastrophic event 16:21:45 sridhar_ram: That's easy to add 16:22:00 sridhar_ram: I'll consider that the first comment 16:22:09 hello 16:22:29 for some reason, my xchat client on mac couldn't connect to freenode 16:22:37 so I am now on webclient... 16:22:43 bobh: there you go.. you got the first comment already .. without looking at the code :) 16:22:59 s3wong: hi there 16:23:00 sridhar_ram: pretty impressive 16:23:16 * sridhar_ram in the clouds .. 16:24:37 tbh: bobh: are you planning some unit testcase as well ? 16:24:56 seems like freenode is having some problem (just dropped a bunch of people apparently) 16:25:06 s3wong: yep 16:25:23 sridhar_ram: I'd like to add at least a few - I'll take a look at the test unit framework 16:25:53 bobh: sure, look at the MANO api for guidance.. 16:25:59 sridhar_ram: will do 16:26:18 bobh: o/ i can help 16:26:26 sridhar_ram: Thanks! 16:26:42 sripriya: sorry - thanks! 16:26:59 lets move on... 16:27:39 #topic Liberty Deadlines 16:28:33 just a quick assessment of the where we are ... 16:28:59 we were shooting for 9/25 as the date to shoot for as the target.. 16:29:27 I think we have most of things in .. atleast in the review queue. so I'm happy 16:29:55 obviously we need some more time to finish the reviews before we can merge 16:30:00 +1 16:30:55 Lets shoot for next Friday to land most of the items ... 16:30:56 +1 16:31:09 +1 again 16:32:09 we also need a solid bug fix cycle / spring before we can pull a stable/liberty branch 16:32:22 +1 16:32:49 +1 16:32:59 s/spring/sprint/ 16:33:48 we can plan a 2-week Oct 4 - 16 bug sprint and pull the stable/liberty at the end of it... 16:34:27 too late ? just enough ? 16:34:54 sounds good to me 16:35:02 agree with bobh 16:35:43 ack back .. lets go w/ that then 16:35:53 I don't see prashantD here 16:36:17 he is still working thru' the auto-scaling spec and related investigations.. 16:36:38 it is unlikely that would land in Liberty .. we need to move to mitaka 16:37:33 I'll work w/ prashantD to re-propose the auto-scaling spec for Mitaka and continue the efforts in the master post stable/liberty 16:38:00 meanwhile I'm looking for s3wong to finish the MANO api review ... 16:38:21 sridhar_ram: yes, should happen around tomorrow 16:38:23 we need to land that first / early so that bobh can absorb the changes early enough 16:38:42 s3wong: thanks! 16:39:15 any other questions on general upcoming deadlines / milestones ? 16:39:47 #topic Bug Sprint 16:40:18 I would request an all-hands on deck bug sprint over next 2 - 3 weeks... 16:40:25 here is the list of unassigned bugs.. 16:40:57 * sridhar_ram quickly creating a bitly as the url is huge 16:41:12 #link http://bit.ly/1G4Z9Rq 16:41:55 I'm planning to join the bug sprint as well and squash as many of them as possible :) 16:42:08 Hello Sridhar 16:42:20 sripriya: there might be some overlap in the "create fails" bugs 16:42:20 am working on #1489189 16:42:27 almost in completion stage.. 16:42:30 sridhar_ram: does this include RFE bugs? 16:43:10 shrinathsuresh: hi, sounds good... keep the fixed coming! 16:43:22 bobh: agree, the root cause might be the same 16:43:31 bobh: let me take a look at them 16:44:15 sripriya: no, we should focus mostly on real functional bugs instance of enhancements 16:44:24 *instead 16:44:49 sridhar_ram: ok 16:44:52 btw - should we announce a Bug Squasher MVP award .. to be given in the summit ? :) 16:45:40 lets move on.. while the team thinks abt it 16:45:46 #topic Documentation 16:46:13 I think we will have some decent devrefs at the end of this release ... 16:46:37 I will add some devrefs 16:46:38 a bit more official doc.openstack.org level docs is something we can shoot for the next release 16:46:55 vishwanathj: sounds good.. 16:47:37 meanwhile any ideas how can we bring the features like health-mon and parameterization .. to our user community 16:47:58 should we have some stop gap wiki pages - based on devrefs ? 16:48:15 sridhar_ram: agree, i had already thought about that 16:48:27 sripriya: Probably some example templates that show different options and configurations would help 16:48:57 sridhar_ram: Now I've made the same mistake both ways 16:48:58 sripriya: perhaps there is a .rst to html converter ? 16:49:16 per sripriya and santosh suggestion, I plan to add some example vnfd templates and param value files to devstack/samples directory for the parametirazation feature 16:49:39 vishwanathj: cool, that would help 16:49:41 sridhar_ram: i need to dig in a bit on that, i can get back to you 16:50:00 bobh: agree, we haven't focused on documenting the tacker.conf much 16:50:09 sripriya: thanks! 16:50:21 vishwanathj: exactly what I was thinking 16:50:51 I can take up documenting tacker.conf 16:51:05 #action sridhar_ram to document tacker.conf in tacker wiki 16:51:21 sridhar_ram: Should we look at removing servicevm references from tacker.conf? 16:51:24 #action vishwanathj to add example vnfd templates and param value files to devstack/samples directory for the parametirazation feature 16:51:33 sridhar_ram: as part of bug squashing sprint, we can take up some more cleaning up of tacker ?
