#openstack-nova - 2017-02-02
14:21:45 jroll jaypipes: this is about deleted nodes, not deleted instances, to be clear
14:22:11 jroll jaypipes: so it wouldn't even be returned in get_available_nodes()
14:22:18 jaypipes vdrok: I asked for you to do a flash-patch in the bug above.
14:22:34 cdent is running two nova-computes on the same machine normal and/or an important consideration in this bug?
14:23:01 jaypipes jroll: right, but the inventory won't get cleaned up in the placement DB if the node_is_available() returns False here:
14:23:02 jaypipes https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/resource_tracker.py#L414
14:23:02 vdrok jaypipes: ok, thanks, will do after lunch
14:23:12 jaypipes cdent: no.
14:23:26 sdague mriedem: yeh, that seems fine.
14:23:41 sdague mriedem: under what circumstances does that error out?
14:24:09 jroll jaypipes: yeah, it'll definitely return False there if the node is deleted
14:24:40 mriedem sdague: would have to dig into nova-status code for specifics, but things like not being able to talk to the placement api
14:24:49 sdague mriedem: yeh, seems fine
14:25:42 mriedem no cell mappings, no cell0, no host mappings when there are computes, etc
14:25:43 mriedem thanks
14:26:06 edleafe jroll: So if the node is deleted, the problem is just orphaned invntory, right? IOW, it isn't in the DB anymore, so it won't get returned from a placement GET
14:26:38 jroll edleafe: AIUI it *is* being returned from the placement API
14:27:10 mriedem the error in the bug report was missing some details, like what the actual build failure was
14:27:33 jroll mriedem: fault | {"message": "Node 6cc8803d-4e77-4948-b653-663d8d5e52b7 could not be found. (HTTP 404)", "code": 500, "details": " File \"/opt/stack/nova/.......
14:27:38 jroll right at the top
14:27:57 mriedem yeah, but
14:28:08 mriedem that doesn't really have anything to do with placement...
14:28:22 mriedem it's in _build_and_run_instance
14:28:41 jroll well
14:28:47 jroll it selected a node that doesn't exist in ironic
14:29:23 jroll it also doesn't exist in the compute_nodes table, but does exist in inventory
14:29:37 mriedem unless it's blowing up here https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/manager.py#L1905
14:30:26 edleafe jroll: so it's gone from the compute_nodes table in the cell, but not in the resource_providers table in the API/placement db
14:30:39 edleafe jroll: So placement still thinks it's there
14:30:40 jroll edleafe: AIUI, yes
14:30:44 jroll keep in mind I did not file this bug
14:30:50 edleafe jroll: ack
14:30:53 jroll I have not independently reproduced it
14:31:01 jroll I'm just trying to answer question while vdrok is at lunch :)
14:31:27 vdrok jaypipes: so, I tried that, return (nodename not in self.compute_nodes) only in the disabled, restarted both computes, still the same
14:31:57 jroll mriedem: nah, I think all the placement/allocations stuff is working fine, except that the node being selected doesn't exist, so spawn() explodes
14:32:49 mriedem what is selecting the node? the scheduler?
14:33:31 jroll I assume so
14:33:36 jroll that's what selects things, right
14:33:50 vdrok mriedem: I added a bit more log from the n-cpu
14:33:50 edleafe jroll: jaypipes: so maybe we need to also add a call to the placement API after https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/objects/compute_node.py#L324 to delete the compute node as a resource provider?
14:33:52 mriedem i guess if everything is fully master then the filter scheduler will use placement
14:34:40 jroll yeah, looks recent enough for placement api, that's why I bring it up :)
14:35:11 jroll edleafe: that seems sensible to my feeble brain
14:35:14 mriedem edleafe: then the compute node object has to use the scheduler client...
14:35:21 vdrok now going to lunch for real :)
14:35:34 mriedem i'd rather we just call the scheduler client to delete the RP after deleting the CN here https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/manager.py#L6585
14:35:44 mriedem since the compute manager already has it's grubby hands into that code
14:36:58 edleafe mriedem: yeah, makes sense
14:40:32 mriedem as far as i can tell, we only ever delete inventories or allocations, but never the actual resource provider
14:40:53 mriedem and since the CN is the RP, and we delete the CN, i guess we need to also delete the RP
14:41:47 mriedem i'm going to head into the office, bbiab
14:41:52 cdent yes
14:42:07 cdent (the delete the rp)
14:56:13 mdbooth lyarwood: I've reviewed the swap_volume change. Haven't looked at the tests yet, btw. Doing that now.
14:59:35 lyarwood mdbooth: thanks again, working on it now.
15:07:27 mriedem please all be fixed, please all be fixed...
15:07:29 mriedem no whammies
15:07:57 lyarwood mriedem: my fix is failing in check, looking now
15:10:59 lyarwood mriedem: http://logs.openstack.org/67/427267/2/check/gate-tempest-dsvm-neutron-full-ubuntu-xenial/0f048f1/console.html#_2017-02-02_15_03_33_671655 - sorry if I've missed a previous discussion about this still being broken btw
15:12:37 mriedem lyarwood: another fix for that is in the gate
15:13:03 lyarwood mriedem: ah great, sorry I missed that fly past
15:13:35 mriedem lyarwood: this one https://review.openstack.org/#/c/427775/
15:13:49 mriedem 2 in the gate
15:17:34 mriedem do we have a definition of barber-pole sorting anywhere?
15:18:49 mriedem just means it wraps around from cell to cell right?
15:19:05 mriedem "striped across the cell boundaries"
15:19:40 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Fix typo in cells v2 ocata reno https://review.openstack.org/428198
15:22:04 jaypipes edleafe: when (if ever) do compute_nodes table records get deleted?
15:24:12 jaypipes mriedem: more generally, I wonder when we ever delete compute nodes...
15:24:48 mriedem in the case of ironic, i guess when they stop reporting available nodes
15:25:21 mriedem jaypipes: also when the nova-compute service is deleted via the api i think
15:25:25 mriedem will have to look
15:25:31 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Improve assertJsonEqual error reporting https://review.openstack.org/428199
15:25:40 mriedem i remember fixinga 404 in the api around that recently
15:25:53 jaypipes mriedem: that would be a big mistake in the case of Ironic then... (since service != compute_node for Ironic)
15:26:15 mriedem https://review.openstack.org/#/c/406627/ was the 404 i was thinking of
15:26:25 mriedem "Compute node resources must currently be deleted manually in the database"
15:27:45 edleafe jaypipes: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/manager.py#L6585
15:27:47 mriedem yeah
15:27:47 mriedem but we do have this https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/13.1.2/nova/compute/manager.py#L6513
15:27:51 edleafe jaypipes: which in turn calls https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/objects/compute_node.py#L324
15:27:52 jaypipes mriedem: yes, and I had some strong words on that patch :)
15:27:59 diana_clarke sfinucan: I heard you like docs ;) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/411441/
15:28:11 diana_clarke sfinucan: (but only if you're not otherwise busy)
15:28:16 mriedem http://www.thereluctanttecchie.com/openstack-removing-a-compute-node-in-icehouse/
15:28:16 jaypipes edleafe: doink.
15:28:26 jaypipes edleafe: right on, brother, nice detective work.
15:28:39 jaypipes edleafe: we need to have the resource tracker do that, not the compute manager.
15:28:45 jaypipes edleafe: I can work on a patch.
15:29:02 edleafe jaypipes: already working on it
15:29:03 jaypipes edleafe: nice find.
15:29:06 mriedem " The fact that the crap hypervisor-list/hypervisor-show REST APIs are still manually attempting to conflate a ComputeNode with a Service is a problem that should be fixed entirely in the REST API, since it is the REST API that is borked."
15:29:10 jaypipes edleafe: oh? even better :)
15:29:11 mriedem those strong words? :)
15:29:22 jaypipes mriedem: heh, yes sir.
15:29:37 edleafe jaypipes: but it's the manager that has to make the call. I don't see the benefit in adding the RT as an indirection layer
15:29:55 jaypipes edleafe: because the RT has the placement client, not the manager.
15:30:09 jaypipes edleafe: and the RT has all the compute node objects now, not the manager.
15:30:11 mriedem the compute manager is the one looking for orphaned computes
