#openstack-nova - 2022-03-01
16:28:07 bauzas we have a osc-placement patch for supporting the latest API microversion for any-traits, but gibi agreed on it not being needed for Yoga
16:28:12 sean-k-mooney it just creating the branches
16:28:19 gibi bauzas: yepp
16:28:35 elodilles as sean-k-mooney says :]
16:28:40 bauzas oh yeah
16:28:43 bauzas correct
16:28:49 sean-k-mooney but ya we shoudl also do that :)
16:28:57 sean-k-mooney i.e. create the branches
16:28:58 bauzas but we're branching on already delivered versions, right?
16:29:08 sean-k-mooney yes
16:29:10 elodilles releases were out last week
16:29:11 elodilles yes
16:29:13 sean-k-mooney which we released a few days ago
16:29:19 sean-k-mooney on friday
16:29:21 bauzas so we're good
16:29:24 sean-k-mooney yes
16:29:33 bauzas we're just branching, but releéases are already gone
16:29:47 elodilles yepp :)
16:30:03 sean-k-mooney yep elodilles pingged me and you on friday and i approved them a release leasion
16:30:12 sean-k-mooney sicne you were busy
16:30:22 bauzas great thanks then
16:30:29 bauzas anyway, I guess we can move on then
16:30:47 bauzas sean-k-mooney: appreciated, the beauty of delegating :)
16:31:01 gibi :)
16:31:12 bauzas ok, moving on, time flies
16:31:19 bauzas #topic Review priorities
16:31:24 bauzas #link https://review.opendev.org/q/status:open+(project:openstack/nova+OR+project:openstack/placement+OR+project:openstack/os-traits+OR+project:openstack/os-resource-classes+OR+project:openstack/os-vif+OR+project:openstack/python-novaclient+OR+project:openstack/osc-placement)+label:Review-Priority%252B1
16:31:31 bauzas I only marked the osc-placement patch
16:31:46 bauzas I'd hold my vote until we branch
16:32:19 bauzas but given nobody +2d/+Wd we're safe
16:33:13 bauzas anything to add ?
16:34:08 gibi -
16:34:22 bauzas #topic Stable Branches
16:34:27 bauzas elodilles: floor is yours
16:34:32 elodilles #info queens and pike branches are blocked
16:34:40 elodilles #info WA patch for stable/wallaby gate stability needs 2nd +2: https://review.opendev.org/830656
16:34:51 elodilles maybe this can have a prio ^^^ o:)
16:35:15 elodilles because wallaby patches cannot really merge due to high failure rate
16:35:25 elodilles #info stable/queens gate fix waiting for 2nd +2: https://review.opendev.org/830327 (needs to be backported to pike as well)
16:35:38 elodilles we haven't done stable releases for a long time, release patches now proposed: https://review.opendev.org/q/project:openstack/releases+intopic:nova+is:open
16:35:54 bauzas I've seen them
16:36:10 bauzas I added them in the RC etherpad for making sure we don't forget them
16:36:11 elodilles maybe this is a good time to release them, but let me know if we need to wait
16:36:25 elodilles bauzas: ++
16:36:49 bauzas I don't see any reason to hold a stable release but I could be wrong, I need to look at the open patchs
16:36:54 bauzas patches* even
16:37:26 bauzas but yeah, we need other cores for the stable branches fixes :)
16:37:32 bauzas just sayin'
16:37:51 opendevreview Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Add support for volume backed server rebuild https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/820368
16:37:52 opendevreview Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Add API support for rebuilding BFV instances https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/830883
16:37:52 opendevreview Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Add conductor RPC interface for rebuild https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/831219
16:37:54 dansmith whoami-rajat: ^
16:38:21 elodilles if bug fixes are landing during FF and final RC and we backport some of them then we can do another round of stable release
16:38:36 elodilles i think ^^^
16:38:37 bauzas dansmith: dude, we're in meeting, shhhttttt :p
16:38:49 bauzas gibi: oh, that.
16:38:53 bauzas gibi: could be fixable
16:38:56 gibi ;)
16:39:10 elodilles :)
16:39:14 dansmith bauzas: apologies
16:39:31 bauzas dansmith: heh no worries you're not the first and you won't be the last
16:39:49 bauzas that's the drawback of in-channel meetings per se
16:39:55 bauzas anyway
16:39:59 bauzas nothing on stable, folks ?
16:40:27 bauzas guess not
16:40:32 bauzas #topic Open discussion
16:40:39 bauzas this topic has nothing on the agenda
16:40:50 bauzas any stuff someone wants to raise ?
16:41:00 bauzas or shall I close it ?
16:41:04 sean-k-mooney i have one thing for us to reflect on. os-vif is pretty stable at this point i wonder if it makes sense to move to release independet
16:41:32 bauzas sean-k-mooney: interesting thoughts but I wonder if that would be more suitable at a PTG timing
16:41:43 bauzas I'd be interested in hearing thoughts from the neutron team
16:41:45 sean-k-mooney we dont need to make any decission now ya we can discuss at ptg
16:42:15 bauzas tbc, release-independent doesn't prevent you to release at milestones
16:42:23 sean-k-mooney correct
16:42:25 bauzas it's just, you're free to do as you want
16:42:32 sean-k-mooney it just remove the requiremetn to have at least one release a cycle
16:42:41 bauzas sec
16:42:46 bauzas verifying the requirements
16:43:00 sean-k-mooney we tend to have enough to do 1 release a cycle but typically dont have a need to do more hten one
16:43:10 sean-k-mooney which we can do with the current model too
16:43:12 elodilles https://releases.openstack.org/reference/release_models.html#independent
16:43:20 elodilles the definition ^^^
16:43:27 bauzas damn, burned
16:43:34 elodilles :]
16:43:59 sean-k-mooney we currently use cycle-with-intermediary which works fine
16:44:20 bauzas well, then let's discuss this at the PTG
16:44:24 sean-k-mooney but most of the changes tend to be paper work
16:44:26 sean-k-mooney ack
16:44:39 bauzas enforcing a release per cycle is something a bit loud, but this could be necessary
16:45:04 bauzas releasing the enforcement doesn't sound bad at a first glance, but I wonder the implications
16:45:16 elodilles one significant thing is that os-vif won't have stable branches,
16:45:26 elodilles but i think not so much backports arrives there
16:45:34 sean-k-mooney elodilles: ya but we dont really do backports often
16:45:46 elodilles sean-k-mooney: ++
16:45:53 sean-k-mooney we do bug i can proably count them on two hands for the last 2-3 releases
16:45:55 bauzas but then we loose the possibility of doing them :)
16:46:02 sean-k-mooney yep
16:46:07 sean-k-mooney lets talk about it later
16:46:10 bauzas yup
