| 13:50:23 | jaypipes | dansmith: the patch from pas-ha? | |
| 13:51:04 | jaypipes | dansmith: oh, the one from dtantsur. yeah, I'm good on that oie. | |
| 13:51:05 | jaypipes | one. | |
| 13:58:23 | dansmith | jaypipes: dtantsur: backport is here: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/494216/1 | |
| 13:58:31 | dtantsur | nice, thanks! | |
| 13:58:33 | dtantsur | vdrok: ^^^ | |
| 13:58:51 | dtantsur | I'll be out for PTO the next two days, vdrok will be your contact point wrt scheduling :) | |
| 13:58:51 | vdrok | oh, thanks dansmith ! also morning | |
| 13:58:58 | dansmith | vdrok: :P | |
| 14:33:03 | mnaser | in preparing for a newton -> ocata upgrade and to avoid accidentally having nova-compute instances that were somehow not running newton, is it reliable/accurate to verify the `version` field in the `services` table? | |
| 14:33:17 | mnaser | it looks like version 15 was newton, so assuming they're all 15, should be good to go | |
| 14:37:08 | dansmith | mnaser: meaning verify that if service.version==15, that means they're all running newton (i.e. no un-upgraded mitaka computes still left) ? | |
| 14:37:16 | mnaser | dansmith correct | |
| 14:37:46 | dansmith | mnaser: yeah that's a reasonably legit thing to do | |
| 14:38:00 | mnaser | dansmith also thinking now it would be nice if this is part of nova-status upgrade check | |
| 14:38:03 | dansmith | mnaser: you can get the number by looking at nova/objects/service.py | |
| 14:38:04 | mnaser | (but im sure contributions welcome) | |
| 14:38:21 | mnaser | yeah, i found that part, looks like master is up to 17, ocata is 16 | |
| 14:38:34 | dansmith | it's not one per release, fyi, | |
| 14:38:47 | dansmith | but each release should have some terminal number which won't change until the next one | |
| 14:39:02 | mnaser | yeah i was going off the number in stable/<x> | |
| 14:39:14 | mnaser | which i assume won't change unless something major is going on | |

| 14:43:24 | gibi | jaypipes: If fixed your comments in the shelve offload bugfix ^^ | |
| 14:43:33 | gibi | jaypipes: s/If/I/ | |
| 15:15:26 | openstackgerrit | Pavlo Shchelokovskyy proposed openstack/nova master: Shuffle best hosts from weighed hosts https://review.openstack.org/494136 | |
| 15:23:01 | openstackgerrit | Merged openstack/nova master: Fix reporting inventory for provisioned nodes in the Ironic driver https://review.openstack.org/492964 | |
| 15:23:47 | dtantsur | dansmith: ^^^ w00t | |
| 15:24:01 | dansmith | hah | |
| 15:24:25 | dansmith | jaypipes: dtantsur: can you throw a +1 on the backport? | |
| 15:24:26 | dansmith | https://review.openstack.org/#/c/494216/1 | |
| 15:24:33 | dtantsur | totally, lemme see | |
| 15:24:42 | dansmith | I think I'm the only one around that can land that so it'd be good to have some backup +1s on there :) | |
| 15:28:00 | dtantsur | mind is there :) | |
| 15:28:20 | dtantsur | I've wait for an ironic job before, but I have no idea what exactly it's going to run, given that ironic does not have stable/pike yet.. | |
| 15:28:31 | dtantsur | so it may fail for a random reason | |
| 15:29:17 | dansmith | sorry, are you saying we should wait? | |
| 15:32:49 | dtantsur | dansmith: no, I'm saying we unfortunately cannot.. | |
| 15:32:56 | dansmith | ack | |
| 16:09:24 | dansmith | I guess we won't be getting jay then | |
| 16:09:58 | cdent | dansmith: is he on weird hours right now? I saw reviews from him at 8am-ish my time this morning | |
| 16:10:15 | dansmith | yeah he's in russia or whatever | |
| 16:12:12 | cdent | somewhere eastness | |
| 16:16:18 | dansmith | johnthetubaguy: still around? | |
| 16:29:42 | melwitt | dansmith: the stable/ocata stack is all merged, so we just need to approve stable/newton here https://review.openstack.org/#/c/491844/ | |
| 16:30:03 | melwitt | or tonyb ^ | |
| 16:31:12 | dansmith | melwitt: yep done | |
| 16:31:30 | melwitt | ty | |
| 16:32:33 | dansmith | also assuming we're punting the cells meeting again today | |
| 16:33:31 | melwitt | yep same | |
| 16:33:40 | melwitt | we are mriedemless | |
| 16:37:00 | melwitt | speaking of that, I'm going to be out on PTO mon-wed next week, FYI | |
| 16:37:20 | openstackgerrit | John Griffith proposed openstack/nova master: Implement new attach Cinder flow https://review.openstack.org/330285 | |
| 16:37:51 | dansmith | okay | |
| 16:40:59 | openstackgerrit | John Griffith proposed openstack/nova master: Implement new attach Cinder flow https://review.openstack.org/330285 | |

| 17:42:35 | openstackgerrit | Pavlo Shchelokovskyy proposed openstack/nova master: Shuffle best hosts from weighed hosts https://review.openstack.org/494136 | |
| 18:28:29 | dansmith | melwitt: you wanna send this? https://review.openstack.org/#/c/493963/4 | |
| 18:28:44 | dansmith | it's just a "don't end up with things that sum to zero 'cause placement will reject it" sort of deal | |
| 18:34:17 | melwitt | dansmith: on it | |
| 18:42:08 | melwitt | dansmith: +W | |
| 18:42:15 | dansmith | thanks | |
| 18:42:21 | dansmith | cdent: you gonna propose the backport? | |
| 18:42:28 | cdent | can do, sure | |
| 18:42:32 | dansmith | it'd be nice if someone else would since I have to +2+W these | |
| 18:42:33 | dansmith | thanks | |
| 18:47:14 | cdent | dansmith: oh, am I supposed to wait until it merges? it seems that not doing so has meant it doesn’t get the nice references to the commit. oops. | |
| 18:47:40 | dansmith | cdent: you should be fine to use the current hash with cherry-pick -x | |
| 18:48:30 | dansmith | which shouldn't change unless we have to modify the current one | |
| 18:48:34 | dansmith | which is unlikely | |
| 18:48:56 | melwitt | dansmith: have you seen this or heard of some discussion about it? it makes the scheduler always spread instead of pack https://review.openstack.org/#/c/494136 | |
| 18:49:32 | dansmith | melwitt: I think someone poked jay about that this morning but I havent' looked at all | |
| 18:49:44 | melwitt | okay. I'm just surprised by it | |
| 18:50:04 | dansmith | cdent: if you can update that backport with the header that'd be cool, otherwise I'll just wait and do it when it merges.. at least you'll be the owner that way | |
| 18:50:12 | cdent | yeah, wil do | |
| 18:50:18 | dansmith | I'll check on it when I get back from lunch | |
| 18:50:22 | dansmith | thanks | |
| 18:53:10 | cdent | never try to interact with gerrit while also trying to interact with panicking daugher and mother | |
| 19:11:33 | cdent | melwitt, dansmith: why is it that some people love pack so much? | |
| 19:11:49 | cdent | that fix looks right on for the ironic case | |
| 19:12:23 | cdent | (because it is only randomize those hosts in the weighted list that match the first weight) | |
| 19:14:01 | melwitt | cdent: I'm not certain how much they love it but it's currently possible to pack and after this change I think it's not, correct? the use case for fill-first is the ability to schedule large instances. in spread-first, you could easily lose the ability to schedule large instances | |
| 19:14:32 | melwitt | yeah, I understand for ironic it would be fine. but this is changing it across the board, right? | |
| 19:15:01 | cdent | if you want a resource provider to be for large instances, just set min_unit > 1 on it’s resource? | |
| 19:15:33 | cdent | I’m slightly kidding on that. I know that we have to maintain existing behaviors and expectations, but still… also s/'// | |
| 19:15:35 | melwitt | at the very least, there should be a release note that explains that fill-first is no longer possible to signal the change in behavior | |
| 19:16:38 | melwitt | this is the sort of thing we'd usually email the operators ML about to get a quick check if anyone cares about fill-first anymore | |
| 19:18:27 | melwitt | and if there's a way to address the use case with resource provider settings, then that's probably fine. something to include in the release note | |
| 19:19:04 | dansmith | cdent: spreading uses more power, means lower utilization on your hosts, and in the case of windows, makes you bleed on the license fee like crazy | |
| 19:20:25 | cdent | there’s an easy fix to that windows problem :) no, I get it, I just, meh, reality... | |
| 19:21:35 | cdent | hmm, so right now in libvirt at least, we provide now way to control min_unit. I guess we’ll want to change that eventually | |
| 19:22:23 | melwitt | yeah, and I want to know why setting host_subset_size isn't sufficient. that's the knob for adjusting the spread or pack | |
| 19:22:41 | melwitt | it's mentioned in the commit message but I didn't get what it means | |
| 19:26:21 | cdent | melwitt: do jay and pavlo cover that in their discussion on ps2? | |
| 19:27:35 | cdent | heh, and simultaneously jay said the same thing on the review | |
