| #openstack-nova - 2026-04-02 | |||
| 18:43:17 | sean-k-mooney | so i have been ocationally suggeting to james that we look at runign more of whitebox in nova-next this cycle | |
| 18:43:18 | melwitt | if your image properties are locked-in (bc you can't rebuild), you will have a flavor/image conflict for resizes | |
| 18:43:33 | sean-k-mooney | melwitt: yep i just had paged out that converstion | |
| 18:44:02 | sean-k-mooney | ok after reviewign the whitebox code as well im ok with moving forward with this job for now | |
| 18:44:08 | melwitt | yeah. it's been a long and complicated journey | |
| 18:44:35 | sean-k-mooney | melwitt: before we add new test i woudl like to change the whitebox cofnig slightly so we list which polices are enabeld | |
| 18:44:45 | sean-k-mooney | i think | |
| 18:44:54 | melwitt | ok. yeah I was just thinking we merged all the tests and etc but no job running them so I figured maybe we want to go with that for now and then whatever happens this cycle I can adapt it | |
| 18:44:55 | sean-k-mooney | and skip the relevent tests | |
| 18:45:11 | sean-k-mooney | no its just user and host form what i saw | |
| 18:45:58 | sean-k-mooney | when we add deployment without another way to know if it shoudl work it will block the 2026.1 branch | |
| 18:46:00 | melwitt | right. and user is kind of a negative test, it just verifies that requests are rejected | |
| 18:46:11 | sean-k-mooney | well i guess it wont but only because this job is not there | |
| 18:46:30 | sean-k-mooney | but i assume we woudl liek to backport this job? | |
| 18:46:37 | sean-k-mooney | to have coverage | |
| 18:46:48 | melwitt | I have not heard anyone suggest that yet | |
| 18:47:20 | sean-k-mooney | i mean its not hard to do and the test coverage would be valuabel but its not strictly requried | |
| 18:47:20 | melwitt | we have coverage by way of whitebox which IIRC runs as a periodic | |
| 18:47:33 | melwitt | this latest thing we are making it sort of an official nova thing I guess | |
| 18:48:11 | sean-k-mooney | yes in the weekly perdic job | |
| 18:48:24 | sean-k-mooney | but i dont think whitebox-devstack-multinode | |
| 18:48:28 | sean-k-mooney | currently runs this test | |
| 18:49:06 | melwitt | oh you mean since we missed the window in G. yeah that's true | |
| 18:49:41 | sean-k-mooney | unless i missunderstood | |
| 18:49:42 | melwitt | so yeah I guess we need to backport it. | |
| 18:49:53 | sean-k-mooney | the host policy did merge before feature freeze adn is in 2026.1 right | |
| 18:49:57 | melwitt | no you're right. I've just been brain fried | |
| 18:49:59 | melwitt | yes | |
| 18:50:06 | sean-k-mooney | ok cool. | |
| 18:50:27 | sean-k-mooney | we could do this slightly diffently. | |
| 18:50:53 | sean-k-mooney | we coudl move whitebox-devstack-multinode to check | |
| 18:51:08 | sean-k-mooney | and update whitebox-devstack-multinode to run the vtpm test by default | |
| 18:51:31 | sean-k-mooney | that woudl give us a weekly perodic on 2026.1 i think | |
| 18:51:59 | sean-k-mooney | that getting to complciated | |
| 18:53:50 | gmaan | tests are present in 2026.1 so yes job needs to be backported | |
| 18:54:53 | gmaan | melwitt: sean-k-mooney: on service users/interaction standardization, I added separate topic than vTPM one added by melwitt so that we can discuss/audit rest all other cases also https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2026.2-ptg#L161 | |
| 18:55:14 | melwitt | sounds good gmaan | |
| 18:55:17 | gmaan | i will details later, feel free to add other case if i missed any | |
| 18:55:34 | gmaan | outcome of that can be to write the agreed approachs in document | |
| 18:56:21 | gmaan | I didn't want to mix it (as it has other cases also) in vTPM one so added as a separatetopic | |
| 18:56:48 | melwitt | yeah I think that makes sense | |
| 18:56:50 | gmaan | not sure which one we should discuss first but that we can figure out in PTG | |
| 18:57:23 | melwitt | we could probably merge the topics, I could add mine as sort of concrete example | |
| 18:57:32 | gmaan | ++ | |
| 18:57:51 | sean-k-mooney | melwitt: i just +2w the nova-vtpm job wiht some notes | |
| 18:58:33 | sean-k-mooney | so assuming the devstack patch merges it shoudl merge shortly there after | |
| 18:58:49 | melwitt | cool, I'll move the vtpm topic under the general service user topic | |
| 18:58:55 | melwitt | thanks sean-k-mooney | |
| 18:59:24 | gmaan | on backport, along with backporting job, we need devstack backport also. | |
| 18:59:38 | sean-k-mooney | one of the feature im implemnntign for cyborg this cycle si SRBAC | |
| 19:00:09 | sean-k-mooney | so oen of the topic i was goign to have for the nova/cyborg session was how to evolve nova to talks to cyborg with service token in the future | |
| 19:00:44 | sean-k-mooney | so we can like group that after the general service_user topic | |
| 19:01:00 | gmaan | yeah, thast will be better | |
| 19:01:04 | sean-k-mooney | it doesnt have to be back to back but we shoudl rsovle that first | |
| 19:01:47 | gmaan | maybe somthing Uggla ^^ can do while scheduling or i can remind | |
| 19:02:25 | sean-k-mooney | i dont think bookings have opened up yet | |
| 19:02:41 | gmaan | slot booking? | |
| 19:02:57 | sean-k-mooney | ut im goign to try and see of i can aovid to many conflicts between the nova watcher and cybrog tracks | |
| 19:03:10 | sean-k-mooney | gmaan: ya the session request was a whiel ago | |
| 19:03:31 | sean-k-mooney | but i have not recived the email fro bookign specific slot yet for cybrog | |
| 19:03:59 | sean-k-mooney | but im expecting that to happen in the next week or so | |
| 19:04:06 | gmaan | it is open, I am not sure there will be separate email for that? | |
| 19:04:37 | gmaan | you can see booking happening in #openinfra-events | |
| 19:04:44 | sean-k-mooney | i was told to expect one by sylvian but i guess i can check with allison | |
| 19:05:08 | sean-k-mooney | ok i was waiting for a notifiction i gues i can figure that out next week then | |
| 19:05:20 | gmaan | afaik, once team PTG booking is confirmed, you can book slot anytime | |
| 19:05:52 | sean-k-mooney | ok i need to chnage the ether pad linkes that were auto created | |
| 19:06:03 | gmaan | https://ptg.opendev.org/ptg.html | |
| 19:06:03 | gmaan | many projects already booked | |
| 19:06:55 | sean-k-mooney | ok i was specificly under the impression that the modeerators for each session would be notifed when we can start doing that | |
| 19:07:56 | sean-k-mooney | looks like nova is not there yet ill sync with Uggla next week | |
| 19:08:09 | gmaan | yeah | |
| 19:12:35 | Uggla | sean-k-mooney, I'll book the slot tomorrow, because I'll be on PTO next wwek | |
| 19:13:00 | sean-k-mooney | Uggla: what days were we thinking for the ptg | |
| 19:13:34 | sean-k-mooney | i may have missed it but i was not sure that was dicsussed in the recent irc metting | |

| 19:15:06 | sean-k-mooney | wathcer is wednesday-friday | |
| 19:15:52 | sean-k-mooney | althoguh firday is shorter due to the tc sessions | |
| 19:16:19 | Uggla | yep expecting to close a bit earlier on friday. | |
| 19:16:49 | sean-k-mooney | ok we can figure it out when your back form pto | |
| 19:17:30 | sean-k-mooney | ill put in some temp cybrog slot on monday and tuesday for now and we can see fi there is a good slot free for the cross project when your back | |
| 19:17:42 | Uggla | sure we will have 1 week to prepare. Right now we have few topics, but I'm pretty sure it will grow next week. | |
| 19:18:00 | sean-k-mooney | i still ned to find time to prepare a small number fo high priroty topics | |
| 19:18:54 | sean-k-mooney | just an fyi one of the things im goign to do is propse a very target spec to chate 2 things in the schduler one fo which si optional to maybe enabel cybrog to do numa in placment before nova does | |
| 19:19:36 | Uggla | ok | |
| 19:19:39 | sean-k-mooney | but i need ot find time to write that up but that was oging to be one of the topci i brought up | |
| 19:20:16 | sean-k-mooney | the other would be the chagne needed to compelte vgpus with cybrog and how nova and cybrog talk to each other | |
| 19:20:28 | sean-k-mooney | those are the 3 general teeme at least | |
| 19:20:42 | sean-k-mooney | we might decied to push the numa topic to a future cycel btu we can see | |
| 19:21:46 | Uggla | btw I don't know if we have requirments to set cross team session ? (beginning of the week ?) | |
| 19:22:05 | sean-k-mooney | we dont but its often better to do | |

| 19:22:21 | sean-k-mooney | historically trhey happend on monday | |
| 19:22:45 | gouthamr | yes, monday and tuesday | |
