| 08:43:50 | bauzas | lol | |
| 08:44:40 | bauzas | tkajinam: I'll look at gibi's comments today, you'll get a merge conflict on the top of your series due to the fact we just approved another unrelated patch fyi | |
| 08:50:16 | gibi | bauzas: is the conflict due to the parallel refactor series? If so we can decide on the landing order to limit the number of conflicts | |
| 08:53:21 | bauzas | gibi: I explained it in the top-level comment for 971460, my opinion is that we can quickly merge stephenfin's patch because tkajinam's series is still actively under review | |
| 08:54:18 | bauzas | gibi: I just saw you made good comments on the firmware autodetection patches, mostly the one about the default XML setting we should or shouldn't set | |
| 08:54:22 | gibi | ahh OK so it is not the mem encryption context refactor | |
| 08:55:02 | bauzas | nope | |
| 08:55:06 | gibi | cool then | |
| 08:55:38 | gibi | stephenfin's patch is landing and that is just a single patch so no further decision needed | |

| 09:11:24 | tkajinam | bauzas, no problem about rebase. I'll do it once that patch is merged | |

| 16:09:54 | elodilles | thanks Uggla | |
| 16:10:04 | elodilles | actually, nothing to report | |
| 16:10:12 | elodilles | #info stable gates seem to be in good state | |
| 16:10:19 | elodilles | that's all from me for now | |
| 16:10:53 | Uggla | thx elodilles | |

| 16:11:14 | Uggla | #topic vmwareapi 3rd-party CI efforts Highlights | |
| 16:11:26 | Uggla | fwiesel, anything to report from your side ? | |
| 16:12:04 | fwiesel | No, nothing from my side. | |
| 16:12:09 | fwiesel | Uggla: Back to you | |
| 16:12:14 | gibi | fwiesel: one thing | |
| 16:12:46 | gibi | would it be possible to run the vmware job with nova-compute switched to threaded mode and using this patch? https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/973468 | |
| 16:14:20 | gibi | https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/admin/concurrency.html#selecting-concurrency-mode-for-a-service this gives you the hint how to configure nova-compute to run in threaded mode | |
| 16:14:31 | fwiesel | Sure, should I activate the threaded mode by default? Or just one run? | |
| 16:14:58 | gibi | you need to pull in the nova-compute patches from that series | |
| 16:15:08 | gibi | and the oslo.vmware patches form the depends on | |
| 16:15:22 | gibi | and set the env variable OS_NOVA_DISABLE_EVENTLET_PATCHING=true | |
| 16:15:27 | gibi | for the nova-compute process | |
| 16:15:32 | fwiesel | So one manual run for now... I can do that. | |
