15:58:15 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Fix min config value for shutdown_timeout option https://review.openstack.org/613028
15:58:22 cdent sean-k-mooney: i'm doing it now, will leave a comment with the reasults
15:59:33 sean-k-mooney spatel: no grep is your friend in this case
15:59:50 spatel :) thanks
16:01:23 fried_rice cdent: btw, that log server has the ANSI color coding patch (which isn't working 100% properly - some codes don't like to turn off), not the choose-your-theme patch, so you're SOL, sorry.
16:01:51 cdent fair enough, as before, I'll cope
16:02:50 fried_rice if we ever reach a point where you're having to look at PowerVM CI logs more than once a year, I'll take that patch offa there :)
16:03:08 cdent
16:06:56 openstackgerrit Martin Midolesov proposed openstack/nova master: VMware: Expose esx hosts to Openstack https://review.openstack.org/613626
16:06:56 openstackgerrit Martin Midolesov proposed openstack/nova master: vmware:PropertyCollector for caching instance properties https://review.openstack.org/608278
16:14:36 openstackgerrit Martin Midolesov proposed openstack/nova master: VMware: Expose esx hosts to Openstack https://review.openstack.org/613626
16:15:11 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Migrate "reboot an instance" user guide docs https://review.openstack.org/612730
16:17:28 mriedem fried_rice: gibi: do you see something here that i don't? https://review.openstack.org/#/c/605785/16/nova/tests/functional/test_servers.py@5275
16:17:49 mriedem if i'm wrong, i'll +W
16:18:23 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/python-novaclient master: Fixes Python3 issue in decoding password https://review.openstack.org/604870
16:19:55 fried_rice mriedem: I didn't scrutinize tbh. If it is a redundant test, I figgered it could be removed in a fup.
16:21:54 mriedem btw, on that safe_connect thing, couldn't all of the same arguments be made for all other services nova talks to if we're worried about network drops? so that would be at least: keystone, glance, cinder, neutron, *barbican
16:22:06 mriedem i think the ironic driver already has it's own retry wrapper
16:22:24 cdent yes?
16:23:09 cdent we assume a lot that's can to be less easy to assume in this like edge and other blech like that
16:23:15 cdent s/can/going/
16:23:32 mriedem oh i'm sure
16:23:54 mriedem ksa already has retry stuff in it too right?
16:23:57 mordred yup
16:24:01 melwitt
16:24:16 mordred and in sdk we have a structure for expressing per-service error codes that are safe to do automatic retries on
16:24:39 cdent this whole day has been a slow setup to allow mordred to do an sdk advertisement
16:24:46 mordred cdent: isn't htat what most days are?
16:24:51 mriedem we just need to rip and replace all nova's internal client things with the sdk, done!
16:25:09 mordred coming soon to a gerrit near you!
16:26:03 mordred (honestly, I've got one more patch i need to write sdk-side, then I want to make y'all a couple of sake-of-argument patches so we can look at what it might be like and whether it's worth working on in earnest)
16:27:12 mriedem working on what? sdk in nova?
16:27:31 mriedem back in the first YVR summit i think dean said the service projects shouldn't use the sdk, but that was a long time ago
16:27:50 mriedem i think for perf reasons
16:27:56 mriedem but it seems kinda dumb not to
16:29:06 leakypipes gibi, mriedem: anyone got the link to gibi's patch series that removes the doubled-up allocation cruft for legacy evacuate code paths?
16:29:14 leakypipes can't find it atm
16:30:12 mriedem https://review.openstack.org/#/c/512623/ ?
16:30:42 mriedem otherwise idk what that is
16:30:51 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Bump os-brick version to 2.6.1 https://review.openstack.org/611109
16:31:03 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Add API ref guideline for examples https://review.openstack.org/604060
16:31:16 melwitt mriedem: s-1 release review is here. sorry I forgot to do it yesterday https://review.openstack.org/613636
16:34:10 mriedem done
16:34:50 melwitt thx
16:41:37 melwitt mnaser: do you ever use beta releases of nova? as of http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2018-September/135088.html beta releases are optional and I wasn't sure if operators use them or not
16:42:56 melwitt I proposed a s-1 release out of habit and release folk asked if anyone needed it and to consider not doing a beta release. so just trying to find out if operators we know use them
16:49:23 mnaser I haven’t ever really played with them. Only RCs
16:49:50 melwitt ok, thanks
17:01:06 openstackgerrit Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: tox: Stop build *all* docs in 'docs' https://review.openstack.org/613645
17:01:28 finucannot fried_rolls: You'd probably appreciate that ^
17:02:41 openstackgerrit Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: Fail to live migration if instance has a NUMA topology https://review.openstack.org/611088
17:28:45 bexigastack hello all
17:28:59 bexigastack i have a quick question that someone here could possibly answer quickly
17:29:35 bexigastack i've got cinder handling nfs mounts served from a netapp in c-mode
17:29:45 bexigastack everything is working as expected
17:30:15 bexigastack i am having an issue when launching an instance on a compute node where that nfs share is already mounted
17:30:39 bexigastack nova attempts to mount it before launching a second instance but is hit with:
17:31:13 bexigastack Command: mount -t nfs nfsserver.dns.name:/OPENSTACK_MOUNT/OPENSTACK_CLOUD_1 /var/lib/nova/mnt/787b0fb4b865db5b3b3c9d305128af32
17:31:31 bexigastack Exit code: 32
17:31:35 bexigastack Stdout: u''
17:31:39 bexigastack Stderr: u'mount.nfs: /var/lib/nova/mnt/787b0fb4b865db5b3b3c9d305128af32 is busy or already mounted\n'
17:32:11 bexigastack oh woops - i think i am in the wrong channel - this is used for development
17:32:18 bexigastack appologies - i will use #openstack
18:31:30 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Reject forced move with nested source allocation https://review.openstack.org/605785
18:31:38 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: api-ref: Remove unnecessary minimum microversion https://review.openstack.org/613226
18:31:46 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Add a hacking rule for deprecated assertion methods https://review.openstack.org/613184
18:52:43 melwitt SteelyDan, leakypipes: are either of you willing to please review this nova-status upgrade check that warns if the deployment is using consoles to set the [workarounds]enable_consoleauth = True config option if performing a live/rolling upgrade? https://review.openstack.org/611214 we need to backport it to stable/rocky and were hoping to include it in stable/rocky release as soon as we can
18:54:39 melwitt mnaser: would you like to have a look at the reno update for the nova-consoleauth thing? https://review.openstack.org/613174
18:55:25 melwitt and let me know if you think it's good
18:57:20 leakypipes melwitt: you see the py3k test failures on that?
19:01:06 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Minimal construct plumbing for nova list when a cell is down https://review.openstack.org/567785
19:01:06 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Modify get_by_cell_and_project() to get_not_deleted_by_cell_and_projects() https://review.openstack.org/607663

19:01:08 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Minimal construct plumbing for nova service-list when a cell is down https://review.openstack.org/584829
19:01:13 melwitt leakypipes: yes, they are unrelated, ssh timeout
19:01:22 leakypipes melwitt: sure?
19:01:48 melwitt leakypipes: yes, why?
19:02:05 leakypipes melwitt: ok, lemme take another look
19:02:37 melwitt the code change is in the 'nova-status upgrade check' CLI command which isn't running in either of those tempest tests
19:18:03 openstackgerrit Jack Ding proposed openstack/nova master: Add I/O Semaphore to limit concurrent disk ops https://review.openstack.org/609180
19:32:37 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Add more documentation for online_data_migrations CLI https://review.openstack.org/605836
19:35:33 cfriesen mriedem: sean-k-mooney: gibi: question about the HPET spec. given that the HPET removal was not for any security reasons, and that HPET is supported by the minimum versions of qemu/libvirt, can we simplify the feature and just specify something like "hw:hpet" in the flavor/image with no way to disable it (since there's no useful reason to prevent it)
19:35:58 cfriesen no way for the operator to disable/block it, I mean
19:54:49 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Modify get_by_cell_and_project() to get_not_deleted_by_cell_and_projects() https://review.openstack.org/607663

21:21:16 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Expose virtual device tags in REST API https://review.openstack.org/393930
21:29:51 mriedem cfriesen: idk, i'd have to context switch the hpet stuff all back into my brain
21:29:57 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Expose virtual device tags in REST API https://review.openstack.org/393930
21:31:35 mriedem cfriesen: if it's as simple as just adding a new image property b/c it's not some kind of security related issue people would want to disable, and maybe (or maybe not) tied to arch of the guest image, then it seems just having an image property would be OK, expecially since it sounds like it's really just a use case for legacy OSes
21:31:46 mriedem i'm not sure why it would even need to be a flavor extra spec really
21:34:31 mriedem that would probably be better than doing a bunch of discovery to determine if hpet is possible on a host and exposing that as yet another trait
21:37:22 cfriesen at least for qemu it doesn't seem to have any security implications as there are other more accurate time sources anyway. I think an image property makes the most sense, and I don't think any discovery is needed
21:37:53 mriedem os_wind_river_special_knob_hpet=true seems ok to me
21:37:57 cfriesen lol
21:38:25 cfriesen okay. I'll talk to Jack, we'll respin with it as simple as possible and the justification for the simplicity
21:40:07 cfriesen one thing...can we specify the hypervisor type somehow? because we do need to land on a qemu node
