| 16:04:17 | Uggla | Let's start | |
| 16:04:28 | Uggla | #topic Bugs (stuck/critical) | |
| 16:04:36 | Uggla | #info No Critical bug | |
| 16:04:46 | Uggla | #topic Gate status | |
| 16:04:52 | Uggla | #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?field.tag=gate-failure Nova gate bugs | |
| 16:04:54 | opendevreview | sean mooney proposed openstack/nova master: enable tap creation in nova-live-migration https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/975500 | |
| 16:05:01 | Uggla | #link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-ci-failures-minimal | |
| 16:05:15 | Uggla | link https://zuul.openstack.org/builds?project=openstack%2Fnova&project=openstack%2Fplacement&branch=stable%2F*&branch=master&pipeline=periodic-weekly&skip=0 Nova&Placement periodic jobs status | |
| 16:05:21 | Uggla | #info Please look at the gate failures and file a bug report with the gate-failure tag. | |
| 16:05:31 | Uggla | #info Please try to provide a meaningful comment when you recheck | |
| 16:05:49 | Uggla | TBH, I have not checked the status. Anything to report about the gate ? | |
| 16:06:47 | gibi | Uggla: I saw some tox-cover job timeouts recently but I haven't looked deeper | |
| 16:07:03 | Uggla | gibi ok | |
| 16:07:21 | gibi | https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/builds?job_name=openstack-tox-cover&project=openstack/nova it is not super frequent but it exists | |
| 16:07:57 | gibi | I vaguely remember we changed something there not to long ago... | |
| 16:08:49 | gibi | ahh we added the func test | |
| 16:09:06 | gibi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/978652 | |
| 16:09:11 | gibi | we already bumped the timeout once | |
| 16:09:12 | sean-k-mooney | yep which slows things down | |
| 16:09:30 | sean-k-mooney | i think stephen had an idea for makign it faster but it woudl have lost some coverage initally | |
| 16:09:55 | sean-k-mooney | bumping it slightly more might be ok as i think it now only fails on slow rax hosts | |
| 16:10:39 | gibi | yeah that is easy to do | |
| 16:10:45 | gibi | I will put up a patch... | |
| 16:11:32 | Uggla | cool | |
| 16:11:35 | sean-k-mooney | i will say there is like a 30min spread betwen the faster and slowere hosts so it quite senitive to the provider | |
| 16:12:20 | Uggla | something else to add ? | |
| 16:12:26 | sean-k-mooney | not really | |
| 16:12:36 | Uggla | ok so moving on | |
| 16:12:42 | Uggla | #topic Release Planning | |
| 16:12:47 | Uggla | #link https://releases.openstack.org/hibiscus/schedule.html | |
| 16:12:52 | Uggla | #info we will discuss Hibiscus release planning at the PTG. | |
| 16:12:58 | Uggla | #info Nova deadlines are set in the above schedule | |
| 16:13:04 | Uggla | #info PTG etherpad for 2026.2 is available: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2026.2-ptg | |
| 16:13:11 | Uggla | #info This is a "work in progress document", but you can enter your topics at the bottom of the document | |
| 16:14:13 | opendevreview | Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: [openstack-tox-cover]Increase timeout further https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/984417 | |
| 16:14:42 | Uggla | I'll try to pack the X session on Mon / Tue. | |
| 16:15:01 | Uggla | Mon will be shorter to let people go to the tc sessions. | |
| 16:16:34 | Uggla | sean-k-mooney suggested Cross session would tuesday 13:00 utc work for the nova/cyborg cross project time? | |
| 16:16:59 | Uggla | does someone have an objection to that ^ ? | |
| 16:17:40 | sean-k-mooney | the intent was to have it before the nova sessiosn strated since when i propved that nova didnt have monday seession | |
| 16:17:54 | sean-k-mooney | that leave 1 hour left in the cybrog session to reflect on any feedback | |
| 16:18:25 | sean-k-mooney | i have 2 cyborg slots booked on monday which we could also use as an alterniive | |
| 16:18:56 | sean-k-mooney | so im pretty flexible on what works for the wider group | |
| 16:19:27 | gibi | my only concern is overlapping with the tc meetings | |
| 16:19:37 | gibi | (but I don't know the exact timings) | |
| 16:19:47 | sean-k-mooney | yep i have made sure there is none betwen cybrog and tc | |
| 16:19:56 | sean-k-mooney | https://ptg.opendev.org/ptg.html | |
| 16:21:19 | sean-k-mooney | we coudl put up a poll or i can just sync with rene adn we can create an etherpad | |
| 16:21:33 | bauzas | yeah I will need to attend the TC sessions | |
| 16:21:55 | bauzas | usually we also had sessions one hour earlier, that's probably why now we see more conflicts | |
| 16:22:01 | sean-k-mooney | we will also need to squeeze in the other nova cross project session ideally in the first 2 days | |
| 16:22:10 | Uggla | let's start like this, we will adjust during the week if needed. Because atm not all cross session are defined yet. | |
| 16:22:20 | bauzas | (we were usually meeting in between 1-5pm UTC) | |
| 16:22:39 | sean-k-mooney | bauzas: the time change does not impact the tc session | |
| 16:22:57 | sean-k-mooney | orgianlly nova was not having session at all on monday and it finsied beofre them on monday | |
| 16:23:11 | sean-k-mooney | in the current ptg adgendar there is also no conflict | |
| 16:23:18 | Uggla | bauzas again, do not take into account what was defined earlier. | |
| 16:23:21 | bauzas | there is a conflict on FRiday | |
| 16:23:26 | sean-k-mooney | actuly no there is now on firday | |
| 16:23:41 | sean-k-mooney | right there wasnt before the extra session were added the week before last | |
| 16:24:06 | bauzas | and yeah, originally, TC sessions were on Monday with no Nova sessions, and on Friday it was overlapping for one hour | |
| 16:24:59 | Uggla | bauzas, I will try to avoid overlapping for sure. | |
| 16:25:05 | sean-k-mooney | i think one of the tc session might have mvoed form monday to firday | |
| 16:25:14 | sean-k-mooney | as there is now only 2 hours on monday | |
| 16:26:24 | Uggla | ok I propose to move on to next topic, I will ping when the things will be more accurate/settled. | |
| 16:26:29 | bauzas | thanks | |
| 16:27:00 | bauzas | (on Wed, I will have to skip two hours due to personal concerns but I'll speak out once timings settled) | |
| 16:27:43 | tkajinam | (my only hope is that cc-related topics are scheduled in earlier slots | |
| 16:27:54 | tkajinam | (but do not intend to be demanding :-P | |
| 16:28:05 | Uggla | but basically my goal is to pack X session on Mon / Tue avoid overlapping and try to spread the topic in the most convenient hours. | |
| 16:28:22 | Uggla | tkajinam, sure I'll keep that in mind. | |
| 16:28:30 | tkajinam | Uggla, makes sense | |
| 16:28:32 | tkajinam | Uggla, ;-) | |
| 16:29:11 | Uggla | ok next topic | |
