16:08:03 TheJulia I'm suddenly reminded of the one time I literally burned out a breaker
16:08:40 johnthetubaguy sean-k-mooney: yeah, anti affinity totally breaks things still, +1 that
16:09:18 sean-k-mooney its because we calusate the alternitive host up front so once one thing files and retire it can cause another thing to fail
16:09:39 johnthetubaguy it gets worse with PCI passthrough
16:09:48 johnthetubaguy or seems to
16:09:56 sean-k-mooney so unless we call the sculder again instead when we do the retry your screwed
16:10:04 sean-k-mooney johnthetubaguy: yes it will
16:10:58 sean-k-mooney johnthetubaguy: that just because we dont track the pci device in placment so when we claim the new candiate we dont calim the pci device and that can cause a reschdule
16:11:08 johnthetubaguy ack
16:11:20 sean-k-mooney johnthetubaguy: we dont need placement to fix that we could allocate the deivce in the conductor be we dont today
16:12:35 sean-k-mooney the pci devices table has 3 states available allocated and claimed i think and the difference between the last too is one is a reservation for a vm that has not yet been created on the host and the other is for when the vm is actully using it
16:12:52 johnthetubaguy oh my... custom resources using the provider yaml totally helps with those races, I think
16:13:07 sean-k-mooney it could
16:13:21 sean-k-mooney but we have no way to associate the RPs with the pci devcices
16:13:27 sean-k-mooney so its close but wont work
16:13:32 sean-k-mooney at least not today
16:13:42 johnthetubaguy because we pick the specific one too early?
16:14:08 sean-k-mooney no we pick the specific on on the compute node but that code has no knolage of placment
16:14:19 sean-k-mooney so it would not pick form the device claimed in palcment
16:14:25 sean-k-mooney it would pick form all devices on the host
16:15:05 johnthetubaguy anyways, I think it fixes a case I am worried about, but we haven't merged that feature (must review that again soon)
16:17:00 sean-k-mooney it will fix it for anything that is not manage by nova direclty
16:17:09 sean-k-mooney like cache allocation
16:17:35 sean-k-mooney or power/termal based scudling

12:44:53 lvdombrkr hello guys, trying to inject admin_password (inject_password=true ) into image but when creating instance get this error in nova-compute.log
12:45:09 lvdombrkr 2020-06-06 14:53:50.188 6 WARNING nova.virt.disk.api [req-94f485ca-944c-40e9-bf14-c8b8dbe09a7b 052d02306e6746a4a3e7e5449de49f8c 413a4cadf9734fca9ec3e5e6192a446f - default default] Ignoring error injecting admin_password into image (a bytes-like object is required, not 'str')
12:45:14 lvdombrkr Train + Centos8
12:45:33 lvdombrkr looks something with related with pytho3
12:45:41 lvdombrkr any clues?
13:55:36 lvdombrkr guys anyone here?
16:06:02 frickler lvdombrkr: that part of nova code seems never to have worked with python3 and is also lacking proper testing, I can reproduce on master, will try to get a patch up soon
16:12:33 lvdombrkr frickler: ok i see. thanks for detailed answer. do i need open bug in https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/
16:12:34 lvdombrkr ?

07:20:36 bauzas good morning Nova
07:30:43 lvdombrkr morning nova. is there other ways to inject password except inject_password=true ?
07:53:55 gibi bauzas: good morning
07:54:26 gibi lvdombrkr: you can use cloud init in the guest and you can use the config driver or the metadata service to provide input for cloud init
07:54:28 bauzas first time I don't feel jetlagged or fried after a PTG
07:55:01 bauzas gibi: didn't we deprecated password injection btw. ?
07:55:04 gibi bauzas: I don't miss the jetlag part of the PTG :)
07:55:26 bauzas gibi: next one, we won't have jetlag too
07:55:27 bauzas :)
07:55:39 gibi bauzas: I think we did https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/deprecate-file-injection
07:55:58 gibi ohh this is file injection not password injection
07:56:42 lvdombrkr gibi: thanks for answer. but if i will use metadata, then passwortd will be stored in metadata in plain text, right?
07:56:51 bauzas ah my bad
07:57:12 bauzas I remembered we did deprecated some injection, but like you, it was the wrong way
07:58:04 gibi lvdombrkr: you can inject public keys
07:58:42 lvdombrkr gibi: yes yes about public keys i know, but i need excatly password
07:58:58 bauzas lvdombrkr: question, why can't you use a config tool like Ansible for injecting such things if you don't wanna use the tool we provide ?
07:59:52 openstack Launchpad bug 1882421 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "inject_password fails with python3" [Undecided,In progress] - Assigned to Dr. Jens Harbott (j-harbott)
07:59:52 frickler bauzas: because it is broken? see https://launchpad.net/bugs/1882421
08:00:12 lvdombrkr bauzas: i want use config you provided (inject_password) but its not working with Centos8 Python3
08:00:13 bauzas frickler: ah, gtk
08:00:57 bauzas then, I'd recommend to go thru external tools until it's fixed
08:03:29 bauzas frickler: I can take a look at your change if you will
08:03:38 lvdombrkr bauzas frickler : thanks for answers. how long time can take fix this?
08:06:56 gibi bauzas, lvdombrkr, frickler: I'm reviewing the fix now (while on a parallel phone meeting so it will take time)
08:10:29 lvdombrkr gibi bauzas frickler: perfect guys, keep me updated please :)
08:11:16 gibi lvdombrkr: sure
08:13:14 aarents good morning nova
08:13:27 aarents gibi: bauzas just FYI, I've made some stupid max attachement contest on a devstack with machine-type q35:
08:13:28 gibi aarents: good morning
08:13:34 aarents nova interface-list 6cc30912-c4ae-493d-8209-e19f16f101bc | grep -c ACTIVE
08:13:37 aarents 220
08:13:45 aarents it is only possible because I override in code num_pcie_ports.max to 224 instead of 28 (we force max to 28 because of limitation with aarch64/virt), without doing it max attachment on q35 is 24 (28 - 4 reserved) and on pc it is 26, so we are still better on pc than on q35 regarding max attachement with current code.
08:13:46 bauzas aarents: good morning
08:14:22 bauzas that reminds me a bell, but I don't remember exactly what
08:14:30 gibi aarents: so we need to make the num_pcie_ports.max dynamic based on the machine typ
08:14:33 gibi e
08:14:41 aarents gibi: I think
08:15:06 bauzas didn't we had an issue like this that was raised before ?
08:15:17 bauzas or maybe it was for usb devices, I can't recall
08:17:42 gibi bauzas: I don't have memory about it
08:20:40 bauzas frickler: this could help you to understand the distinguo between the bytes and the str types in py3 https://eli.thegreenplace.net/2012/01/30/the-bytesstr-dichotomy-in-python-3
08:21:34 bauzas frickler: tl;dr you shouldn't explicitely tell a string as byte-coded
08:31:08 frickler bauzas: yes, this is clear, the question for me is, when a function needs bytes, is it better to make the caller supply bytes or have the function convert str arguments to bytes. that happens multiple times in the inject_* code
08:48:09 bauzas frickler: I definitely prefer the latter
08:48:28 bauzas bytes type should only be used when you need
09:02:20 bauzas frickler: I think i found why you need to horribly encode all the strings
09:03:30 bauzas tl;dr: the guestfs import seems to be py3
09:03:32 bauzas py2*
09:05:49 bauzas that should come from libguestfs not having the py3 bindings
09:07:35 frickler bauzas: well I tested locally on focal with python3-guestfs installed, surely no py2 involved there
09:08:03 bauzas what I don't understand is why you get a bytes-encoded FS
09:09:13 frickler bauzas: I think that's pretty normal, files contain bytes, you'd have to tell guestfs the encoding in order to be able to convert them to strings
09:10:11 bauzas sure, of course
