#openstack-nova - 2019-10-31
15:39:59 dansmith yeah, but verify_instance wouldn't be the scheduler,
15:40:05 dansmith so if the scheduler is the only one affected somehow...
15:41:18 dansmith hmm
15:41:23 dansmith is scheduler getting restarted at all?
15:41:27 mriedem it's not only the scheduler, just mostly. some jobs hit it in the api too
15:41:37 mriedem yes scheduler gets restarted in the grenade run
15:41:53 dansmith I don't see it in the log
15:42:08 dansmith oh, I'm looking at a normal job
15:42:11 openstack Launchpad bug 1844929 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "grenade jobs failing due to "Timed out waiting for response from cell" in scheduler" [High,Confirmed]
15:42:11 mriedem i have some notes here https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1844929/comments/3
15:42:33 dansmith I know, I read those previously, but I'm trying to avoid re-reading them to not get stuck down a given line of thinking
15:42:43 mriedem we restart the scheduler and it queries compute nodes and services from the cell1 db at that time ok
15:42:50 mriedem ack
15:43:18 dansmith I know we should,
15:43:38 dansmith I was just wondering if maybe we don't restart it actually and the first attempt fails
15:44:07 dansmith so,
15:44:08 dansmith https://storage.gra1.cloud.ovh.net/v1/AUTH_dcaab5e32b234d56b626f72581e3644c/zuul_opendev_logs_8ec/688419/2/check/grenade-py3/8ec542b/logs/screen-n-sch.txt.gz
15:44:16 dansmith I see it started at 14:07:00 only
15:44:48 dansmith are we not keeping the log or something maybe?
15:46:00 mriedem it looks like that job failed smoke tests on the old side,
15:46:03 mriedem so never got to upgrade
15:46:11 mriedem https://storage.gra1.cloud.ovh.net/v1/AUTH_dcaab5e32b234d56b626f72581e3644c/zuul_opendev_logs_8ec/688419/2/check/grenade-py3/8ec542b/logs/grenade.sh.summary.txt.gz
15:46:20 dansmith okay but the same error
15:46:36 mriedem oh that's interesting
15:51:33 dansmith the first instance of that happens well after the last "aborted connection" message in the mysql error log
15:51:54 dansmith which makes me think all those errors in the mysql log are from things we're doing during devstack setup
15:52:02 dansmith like one-shot client calls or something
15:53:09 dansmith and 18 minutes after the last "ready for connections" message from mysql
15:57:15 dansmith doesn't really look like any sort of unreasonable load or kernel events around that time
16:11:35 dansmith mriedem: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/692402/
16:12:14 dansmith mriedem: have any tricks to get a lot of grenade runs on that?
16:12:39 dansmith I know in the past we'd create like ten noop patches that depends-on something like that to get 10x the runs
16:12:47 dansmith seems irresponsible in today's climate :)
16:16:38 mriedem you could create a grenade patch that depends-on it
17:05:54 openstackgerrit Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova master: WIP service: Do not perform version checks for deleted services https://review.opendev.org/692412
17:06:05 lyarwood melwitt: ^ when you're back, I'm likely missing something obvious here.
17:11:48 mriedem lyarwood: didn't mel already fix that bug in the Instance object when lazy-loading services?
17:12:25 mriedem https://review.opendev.org/#/c/582408/
17:14:19 lyarwood mriedem: that was the original bug when running through this upgrade scenario yeah but instead of ServiceNotFound we now see ServiceTooOld raised with that fix applied
17:25:06 mdbooth sean-k-mooney: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/687957/
17:29:08 sean-k-mooney mdbooth: thanks for the review. ill go though it tommorow im just about to go have dinner
17:29:28 mdbooth sean-k-mooney: ack
17:30:20 sean-k-mooney by the way i belive the way im comparing the numa toplogy constirant should compare things like pages size too
17:30:58 sean-k-mooney we dont actully want to try and fit the request to a host and compare that we just want to extrat the contaritns and assert they dont change
17:31:59 sean-k-mooney i can add some more test cases however to test different type of constraitn changes
17:32:24 sean-k-mooney to ensure that change hugpeage also will be detected ectra
17:32:52 sean-k-mooney i assume that is what you ment by poking at different levels
17:33:21 mdbooth sean-k-mooney: Yeah, I wasn't 100% on that, although I *did* go look up 1) the implementation of obj_to_primitive(), 2) the implementation of dict.__eq__ in python ;)
17:33:44 mdbooth sean-k-mooney: I think it's ok, I was just thinking for completeness
17:34:08 mdbooth But about the exception, I think it's important to positively assert that your last test case is being rejected for the reason you expect
17:34:24 mdbooth Rather than for some other, coincidental reason
17:34:24 sean-k-mooney ya i can do that
17:34:30 mdbooth (It is, btw, I checked that too)
17:34:40 sean-k-mooney the self.assertRaisss returns the exception raised
17:34:46 mdbooth It does
17:34:52 sean-k-mooney so i can save it to a var and then do more asserts
17:36:35 sean-k-mooney im pretty sure we can do that anyway
17:37:16 sean-k-mooney mdbooth: https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html#unittest.TestCase.assertRaises
17:37:57 sean-k-mooney i know we can get teh exception via the context manager apparch but i think the non context manager form just returns the exception
17:38:06 mdbooth sean-k-mooney: You can do both
17:38:10 mdbooth You can do:
17:38:17 mdbooth ex = self.assertRaises(...)
17:38:22 sean-k-mooney yep
17:38:35 mdbooth Anyway, I don't care what colour the bike shed is ;)
17:38:38 sean-k-mooney so ill leave the exsting test tehn i can assert after on the body
17:39:09 sean-k-mooney well it was more that there is an easy way to be more specific for that last case
17:39:33 sean-k-mooney i can assert an excetion is raised and then assert what it was as you suggested
18:01:36 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Reset vm_state to original value if rebuild claim fails https://review.opendev.org/692185
18:24:15 melwitt mdbooth, lyarwood: thanx for the fast reviews on the get_hash_str patch!
18:54:46 efried mriedem: flavors were previously associated with instances just by ID, right?
18:55:11 efried But that was problematic because when you changed a flavor, you could no longer tell what was used to create the instance...
18:55:23 efried so we started copying the flavor content into the instance
18:55:30 efried and now we... no longer even store the original flavor ID?
18:59:52 mriedem we saved off the flavor information for a long time...not sure when that started, but it used to be in system_metadata rather than instance_extra
19:00:08 melwitt I think we still do store it, as instance_type column in the instances table
19:00:17 mriedem yes, we do
19:00:37 mriedem the embedded instance flavor was migrated from system_metadata to instance_extra back in kilo - dan did that work
19:01:03 mriedem instances.instance_type_id is the flavor.id
19:01:09 mriedem it's set on create and resize
19:01:27 efried is it used for anything, or just there kind of as a historical artifact?
19:02:01 mriedem quick grok shows the simple tenant usage api uses it
19:02:04 mriedem but probably shouldn't
19:02:30 efried okay.
19:02:31 mriedem oh it's only used there if the instance.flavor doesn't load
19:02:34 mriedem that's super old compat code though
19:02:51 mriedem it's used for filtering servers in GET /servers
19:03:07 mriedem and it's in the Migration object
19:03:13 mriedem old/new_instance_type_id
19:03:34 mriedem i think it's mostly vestigial though
19:03:36 efried And all of this (copying the flavor rather than just referring to it) is so things like rebuild behave sanely when the flavor is changed out of band.
19:03:37 efried right?
19:04:03 mriedem the flavor doesn't change on rebuild...but you mean in case the flavor extra specs change or something?
19:04:11 mriedem or if the flavor is deleted after the server is created and then you rebuild the server?
19:04:14 mriedem if so, yes
19:04:27 mriedem same reason we squirrel away the image meta used to create and rebuild the server
19:04:29 mriedem in case the image goes away
19:04:38 efried right, okay, thanks for confirming.
19:05:00 mriedem are you asking b/c of that spec about changing how flavor extra specs work?
19:05:05 mriedem i don't even want to look at that spec
19:05:35 dansmith changing how they work how"
