| 11:40:18 | opendevreview | Dmitriy Rabotyagov proposed openstack/nova-specs master: [spec] Add Cross-AZ scheduling blueprint https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/900296 | |
| 11:42:20 | mkuroha | bauzas: gibi: sean-k-mooney: Thank you for your previous feedback and for getting the spec for 2026.1 merged. I’d appreciate it if you could review this code as well when you have a moment: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/948304 | |
| 11:48:04 | noonedeadpunk | I know I'm very late with this spec, and really sorry about not being able to get working on it sooner after ptg: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/900296 | |
| 11:48:35 | noonedeadpunk | I think I've addressed all comments from etherpad, and ones were left as previous reviews | |
| 12:00:17 | opendevreview | Lajos Katona proposed openstack/nova master: Use SDK for Neutron floating IPs https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/962604 | |
| 12:22:12 | opendevreview | Sahid Orentino Ferdjaoui proposed openstack/nova master: compute/manager: fix live migration issue due to orphaned attachments https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/967683 | |
| 13:22:47 | opendevreview | Dominik proposed openstack/os-traits master: Add NUMA Topology traits https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-traits/+/967690 | |
| 13:31:12 | sean-k-mooney | noonedeadpunk: dont fret, the soft proposal freeze is tomorrow but spec freze is not for another 2 weeks | |
| 13:31:36 | sean-k-mooney | noonedeadpunk: i saw the email update on it but have not looked at it | |
| 13:32:02 | sean-k-mooney | ill try and review it once i finish writing my last spec for this release :P | |
| 13:33:22 | noonedeadpunk | ok, then I feel a little better about doing everything at last minute :) | |
| 13:33:25 | sean-k-mooney | noonedeadpunk: i gavem most of my feedback/request in the eather pad durign the ptg https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/r.9bac75a686ab0941572757b205c9415c#L1020 | |
| 13:33:48 | noonedeadpunk | I tried to address all your comments in it | |
| 13:33:53 | sean-k-mooney | cool | |
| 13:34:01 | noonedeadpunk | IT could be that I did not elaborate enough on them though... | |
| 13:34:18 | sean-k-mooney | ill try to get to this on friday if i dont feel free to ping me to review | |
| 13:34:29 | noonedeadpunk | But I was reffering to etherpad at least while reviving the spec | |
| 13:34:37 | noonedeadpunk | ++ thanks! | |
| 13:54:50 | opendevreview | Merged openstack/placement master: Replace UPPER_CONSTRAINTS_FILE https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/947483 | |
| 14:34:29 | dansmith | bauzas: why are you not +W on the user patch? I thought we agreed we were going to merge through host, since even without live migration, that massively improves the general situation | |
| 14:34:39 | dansmith | is there something about that point that you're still unsure about? | |
| 14:34:47 | bauzas | because I wanted to look at the other ones, but sure I can +W them | |
| 14:34:57 | bauzas | gimme a second :) | |
| 14:35:41 | dansmith | okay, getting through the host patch means that an operator can have vtpm instances that are restartable after a power outage, so even without live migration stuff, that's a big win | |
| 14:49:48 | bauzas | ditto | |
| 14:55:49 | opendevreview | ribaudr proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Enable memfd support for shared memory backing https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/951689 | |

| 16:00:38 | gmaan | Uggla: ack, will check it | |
| 16:01:09 | Uggla | That's a trivial one, I don't think more is needed. | |
| 16:31:37 | opendevreview | sean mooney proposed openstack/nova-specs master: add spec for resouce notifications https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/967712 | |
| 16:32:19 | sean-k-mooney | gibi: that a bit more handwavye then i woudl liek but it covers the main point ^ | |
| 16:32:59 | sean-k-mooney | i need to do some research into the current ovo formats of the relevent sub obejction and propose the datastucure fo the notification obejct properly | |
| 16:34:32 | sean-k-mooney | i need to go pick up my blood pressure medication so ill be afk for a bit | |
| 17:00:32 | gmaan | Uggla: lgtm but can you add a releasenotes as it change the default | |
| 17:00:58 | Uggla | gmaan, sure gonna update it thx | |
| 17:03:33 | gibi | sean-k-mooney: ack thanks I will try to get to it this week | |

| 10:36:54 | andreykurilin | Hi folks! I have a question regarding https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2091114 - how the operators are supposed to evacuate the hypervisor in case of emergency? Is there any way to bypass new check? | |
| 10:38:25 | sean-k-mooney | andreykurilin: in an emargency you cna disabel the secuirty messure on the target hypervior | |
| 10:38:43 | sean-k-mooney | the flatcar image have been fixed upstream | |
| 10:39:25 | andreykurilin | It does not relate to flatcar images only, some other vendors violated specifications as well | |
| 10:39:34 | sean-k-mooney | yep | |
| 10:39:54 | sean-k-mooney | so as an operator you have the option of enfocing specomplaine and saftey | |
| 10:40:02 | sean-k-mooney | on allowing unsefe images | |
| 10:40:39 | sean-k-mooney | we have taking the stance that all non spec complient images are unsafe | |
| 10:41:53 | sean-k-mooney | you coudl use shculder filters to move workload tha tuse unsafe images to a designated host aggarte | |
| 10:42:01 | andreykurilin | I agree with that and we want to enable this check for all new images. But at the same time it would be nice to fix existing images in iterative way without making the cloud less secure (i.e., disable all the checks) | |
| 10:42:02 | sean-k-mooney | or other means to partion your cloud | |
| 10:42:35 | sean-k-mooney | the only way to fix the iamges woudl be to modify the date for the image in glance | |
| 10:43:03 | sean-k-mooney | for flatcar that just ment removing a flag on the partion but you woudl have to download the image and reupload it | |
| 10:43:20 | sean-k-mooney | if it was an operator provded image you can do that but not a user image | |
| 10:44:33 | sean-k-mooney | the oslo image inspector module supprot a way of invoekign it fomr the command line on an image so you can test it locally | |
| 10:45:29 | andreykurilin | oslo image cli note - nice to now, thank you | |
| 10:48:13 | andreykurilin | I understand that fixing images require reuploading and interactions with end-users which takes time. Moving all existing VMs into dedicated HVs with disabled all image checks - sounds expensive :) right now we are leaning towards to patching oslo lib to remove this check so we have enough time to work with end users | |
| 10:48:40 | sean-k-mooney | https://github.com/openstack/oslo.utils/commit/8e6cf9556413f4ef3b75c09b3a42896a4d1b9253 | |
| 10:49:43 | sean-k-mooney | andreykurilin: that not somethign that is upstreamable but is somethign you coudl do in your cloud | |
| 10:52:00 | andreykurilin | Thank you | |
| 10:52:02 | sean-k-mooney | andreykurilin: i do have a patch to do that semi safely however it was never inteded really to merge just to demonstate what it woudl look like https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/oslo.utils/+/937215/2/oslo_utils/imageutils/format_inspector.py | |
| 10:52:51 | sean-k-mooney | there is another similer patch https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/oslo.utils/+/964528 | |
| 10:53:03 | sean-k-mooney | either of which we wexpct to be merged | |
| 10:56:40 | andreykurilin | Got it. Thank you for helpful notes | |
| 10:57:44 | sean-k-mooney | i dont know if it would make sense to eventully build a "image fixer" type tool that operator could use but kind of feels out os scope of oslo utils | |
| 10:58:07 | sean-k-mooney | maybe but i dont know of anyoen working on that. | |
| 10:58:45 | sean-k-mooney | since legacy or uefi boot is select as a image property on the image that is uploaded you will have seperate copies fo the iamge for each mode in glance | |
| 10:59:48 | sean-k-mooney | so you coudl do what was provided as the flatcar workaround, i dont think glance woul dwant to supprot that itself but it does have interoperatble import plugings for format conversion amoung other things | |
| 11:00:22 | sean-k-mooney | so that may also be an opetion eventully. however that somethign you would have to talk to the oslo or glance folks about | |
| 11:08:23 | nelljerram | elodilles: Thanks for pushing my cherry picks along. You mentioned on https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/967569 that the grenade job needs investigation - can you suggest some more detail for how I can do that? (If there is something more specific than the general guidance at https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/testing.html#how-to-handle-test-failures) | |
| 11:10:13 | andreykurilin | sean-j-mooney: yeah, “image fixer” sounds great, but from my noob point of view - too high risk to damage “nobody-known-who-and-how-built-this” user image. May not worth the effort. And definitely out of scope of oslo.utils . Thank you for all your input! | |

| 11:27:40 | opendevreview | John Garbutt proposed openstack/nova master: WIP: Ironic: add logs during provision failures https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/967823 | |
| 11:58:07 | DominikDanelski[m] | Is there any reason why we would want allocations left by a VM that was over quota and never entered ACTIVE to be left in Placement? | |
| 12:02:17 | DominikDanelski[m] | I observed it with unified limits and I'm not sure if that's an error or an intended course of things. Doesn't seem to make sense to me, but maybe there's some underlying reason I'm not aware of. | |
| 12:54:07 | elodilles | nelljerram: thanks for looking into the issue! I've commented on the patch, let's see if my grenade patch fixes the issue when it merges | |
| 13:07:33 | nelljerram | elodilles: many thanks, fingers crossed | |
| 14:08:42 | priteau | Hello. We have a customer who has raised an interesting issue: they have some tooling using server groups and affinity/anti-affinity rules and were expecting it to work out of the box in a Nova+Ironic context, with affinity policy preventing scheduling and anti-affinity working. However, I think what is happening is that the affinity/anti-affinity filter uses the nova-compute | |
| 14:08:44 | priteau | host as a comparison, correct? | |
