18:52:39 sean-k-mooney ya it would be
18:53:02 sean-k-mooney so if we allowed a singel vnc proxy to connect to any of the cell dbs that would be your preference
18:54:27 sean-k-mooney belmoreira: dansmith and melwitt can correct me if i get this wrong but i think what they were suggesting was add a config option to denote if the novnc proxy should connect to on celldb or multiple and having it do a scater gater request to each cell db in the case of multi cell mode
18:55:07 belmoreira having that possibility would be great. I already patch it and have it working in my test infrastructure
18:55:19 sean-k-mooney belmoreira: that would assume that the novnc proxy can actully connect to all the hyperviors in any cell but i belive that is the cause for your env right
18:56:06 belmoreira yes
18:58:02 belmoreira my ideal setup is to have a set of vncproxies that can connect to any hypervisor in the region
19:00:10 sean-k-mooney ya which this would give you
19:00:51 sean-k-mooney i think the main issue is from the consol url we dont know which instance it for without looking up the token and to do that we need to check the cell db
19:01:10 sean-k-mooney so in this case we would need to check multiple cell dbs which increase the load on the db since only one will have the token
19:01:30 sean-k-mooney so we would not want to do that by default but we could allow you to opt into it
19:02:31 belmoreira basically is something similar to the code that I pointed earlier
19:03:01 belmoreira I agree that this shouldn't be the default. Small deployments would not benefit from it
19:04:59 dansmith yeah that's what I meant.. scatter/gather to find the cell that a token is in is not very efficient, but I think the alternative is a lot more work for the few people that might want it
19:05:19 dansmith I'd definitely prefer solving that at the load balancer level with a url suffix or something like that,
19:05:44 dansmith so I think adding a config to scatter/gather is okay and let's not add a new mapping table just for this until/unless performance becomes an issue
19:08:42 belmoreira I think it would be ok. Consoles are not a popular api call. I can report after in terms of performance.
19:11:47 belmoreira thank you all. I can add this into the ptg agenda we need to discuss it more
19:13:46 belmoreira I need to leave now. thank you again
21:15:36 zigo What's the problem with https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/809759 ? (ie what's happening with this nova-tox-validate-backport check?)
21:57:22 artom zigo, it checks that the "source" hash is merged in an upstream branch
21:57:45 artom zigo, so if you cherry pick from wallaby to victoria, the victoria check will fail until the wallaby one merged
21:59:07 artom zigo, ah, no, I had the completely wrong idea without even opening the link
21:59:11 artom "Stable branch requires either cherry-pick -x headers or [stable-only] tag!" is what explains it
21:59:15 artom In the job output
22:28:08 clarkb sounds like someone needs to update the bot or fix the job. Cherrypicking the gitreview change doesn't make sense as it is different than masters
22:28:30 clarkb in my personal opinion it seems like overkill to make people explicitly tag stuff stable only
22:28:38 clarkb its clearly stable only and reviewers can see that why do we need CI to -1?
23:08:48 artom clarkb, it's really a commit message linter, if you think about it
23:09:11 artom I'm very *shrug* about it, though I'd tend to err on the side of "more linting" over "less linting"
#openstack-nova - 2021-09-21
01:34:21 opendevreview Eric Xie proposed openstack/os-vif master: Fix typos https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-vif/+/810137
07:15:59 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova stable/xena: [stable-only]Update .gitreview for stable/xena https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/809759
07:16:30 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova stable/xena: [stable-only]Update TOX_CONSTRAINTS_FILE for stable/xena https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/809760
07:16:36 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova stable/xena: [stable-only]Update TOX_CONSTRAINTS_FILE for stable/xena https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/809760
07:17:00 gibi zigo, artom, clarkb: I've updated the stable/xena setup patches
07:17:51 gibi I think in general the backport check helps enforceing that we only merge patches in a good branch order
07:18:07 gibi new stable branch setup seems to be an edge case
07:19:26 bauzas good morning folks
07:20:41 bauzas gibi: hmmmm
07:21:18 gibi bauzas: good morning
07:21:28 bauzas gibi: modifying the commit msg would mean that the CI job would accept it ?
07:21:53 bauzas haha
07:21:55 bauzas "Stable branch requires either cherry-pick -x headers or [stable-only] tag!"
07:22:03 gibi bauzas: yes, either the patch needs to have a cherry-picked from line where the hash points to a merged change or the patch needs to state that it is stable only
07:22:09 bauzas saw in https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/97c7712edfe34c5386c0cc2fc37ef466
07:22:20 bauzas gibi: kk, +2 then
07:24:02 bauzas gibi: looks like we need to do this also for all of the changes https://review.opendev.org/q/owner:infra-root%2540openstack.org+(project:openstack/nova+OR+project:openstack/placement)+is:open
07:28:51 bauzas ah no
07:29:01 bauzas just rechecks because of timeouts in placement
07:34:53 gibi I think we dont have the backport check in placement
07:35:31 gibi the placement lower constraint timeout needs https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/810001 to merge first
07:48:17 bauzas gibi: this is correct, hence my "ah no" :)
07:48:32 bauzas (placement doesn't verify the backports)
07:49:12 bauzas gibi: and shit, you're right
07:49:18 bauzas we need a second core
07:51:17 bauzas lyarwood: I know your placement knowledge is the same than old greek, but we'd appreciate a +W for a dependency bump https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/810001 in order to fix the gate
07:56:32 gibi bauzas: also the stable team needs to make a short term decision what to do with the lower constraint bump on stable/xean
07:56:53 bauzas we have an open change about it
07:56:54 gibi it is not really allowed, but we can push an RC2 to be in the xena release
07:57:11 bauzas https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/787863
07:57:28 gibi yeah that also possible
07:57:32 gibi turning off the job
07:57:57 bauzas honestly, I have no opinion and this could be discussed at the PTG
07:58:14 bauzas but we need to consider the bump, agreed
07:58:25 gibi so 1) bump lower constarint and release RC2 so we are not breaking stable policy abour reqs 2) try to pin virtualenv during tox installation to avoid unpinned setuptools on stable (this is the long term solution) 3) turn off the lower job
07:59:27 gibi and the problem is not placement specific but hitting a lot of projects
07:59:31 gibi nova is not impacted
07:59:44 gibi so a common solution would be good
08:20:18 bauzas gibi: let's discuss this during our meeting tonight
08:20:26 gibi sure
08:20:35 gibi bauzas: btw would you like to take over charing of the meeting?
08:20:44 bauzas gibi: I was thinking about it
08:20:53 bauzas I can do it :)
08:20:55 gibi elodilles: will you be available on todays meeting to talk about the stable req bump problem?
08:21:04 gibi bauzas: then I officially give you the baton :)
08:21:14 bauzas huuuuuuuuuuh
08:23:00 bauzas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43RID9cIEAE
08:23:05 bauzas DOOOOOH
08:24:01 gibi bauzas: https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/irc-meetings/+/810165
08:25:16 bauzas gibi: thanks, was looking on it...after finding the Simpson video :)
08:26:54 gibi bauzas: on the today meeting we should also talk about the release liaison role
08:27:07 bauzas gibi: yeah, I was about to ask for it
08:27:11 gibi cool
08:27:13 bauzas also, we have other liaisons fwiw
08:28:07 gibi for me only the release one was visible
08:28:34 bauzas technically we have other roles in our team :) https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Nova#People
08:28:55 bauzas but meh
08:29:10 bauzas it's not like we have 50 engineers wondering how to help our community :)
08:31:27 lyarwood \o mornig
08:35:18 elodilles gibi: yes, i'll be there on the meeting :)
08:38:06 gibi elodilles: do you already see a common solution forming from stable perspective?
08:42:25 gibi lyarwood: o/
08:45:19 elodilles o/
08:46:41 elodilles gibi: btw, I agree with your option 2 but needs to be checked with infra I think
08:48:27 gibi elodilles: yeah, I can accept that option 2 needs more effort probaly to make it right so if we need a short term solution then I'm fine with either 1 or 3. 1 has the limit that we need to cut RC this week. 3 has the effect that we will never turn the job back again
08:50:06 gibi hm feels like the gate is clogged
08:50:08 gibi :/
09:14:46 bauzas gibi: elodilles: fwiw, I'm in favor of bumping the dep now, which is option 1 and revisit the issue at the PTG
09:15:04 bauzas short-term, we need to addree the fire
