| 14:55:28 | tstachecki | Hi, I can come discuss on the next Nova weekly, but wanted to see if anyone had any feedback on us working with Ceph upstream to add an additional field to 'ceph mon dump' output to include FQDNs instead of IP addresses. The FQDN would be a new field in the mon dump so we don't break existing OpenStack users using IP addresses or using an older version of Ceph. | |
| 14:57:25 | tstachecki | a major pain point for us and other operators has been that IP addresses are fixed. there's some recent work upstream to allow the address to change at migration, and we think we could further improve and leverage that work to allow some operators to configure hostnames and such that they can be changed in an IPAM without having to change Nova/Ceph/Cinder configuration when mon addresses change. | |

| 13:55:18 | fungi | https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2142042 had its nova bugtask switched from incomplete to expired today by "launchpad janitor" for having no new activity in the past 60 days. it's the first time i've seen that happen to an openstack project's bug... | |
| 13:55:57 | fungi | did a new lp setting get turned on for no9va bugs, or has it always done this and i've somehow never spotted it happening before? | |
| 13:56:07 | sean-k-mooney | fungi: that used to be a thing | |
| 13:56:16 | sean-k-mooney | but i have not seen that in a very very long time | |
| 13:56:51 | sean-k-mooney | fungi: i remember this being a thing 10 years ago | |
| 13:57:02 | fungi | okay, so maybe i'd forgotten about it and it recently got reapplied, or something on the lp side was broken for a long time and has finally been fixed | |
| 13:57:03 | sean-k-mooney | but we made sure the expiray was turned off | |
| 13:57:18 | sean-k-mooney | ya but i dont think it is intentional | |
| 13:58:03 | sean-k-mooney | ok its checked in the bug config | |
| 13:58:15 | sean-k-mooney | let me uncheck it quickly until we have time to dicuss it | |
| 13:58:43 | sean-k-mooney | oh os its actully confire to only expire incomplete bugs currently | |
| 13:58:48 | sean-k-mooney | not any open bug | |
| 13:59:24 | sean-k-mooney | fungi: not sure if you can see https://launchpad.net/nova/+configure-bugtracker | |
| 13:59:38 | sean-k-mooney | i just uncheck the Expire "Incomplete" bug reports when they become inactive | |
| 13:59:39 | fungi | advanced search for nova bugs in expired state sorted by number turns up one that got expired on the 13th too | |
| 13:59:40 | sean-k-mooney | box | |
| 14:00:15 | sean-k-mooney | the nova irc meeting is in a few hours let just add this to opendicuss | |
| 14:00:22 | sean-k-mooney | and we can fiture out if we want it on or off | |
| 14:00:44 | sean-k-mooney | there doesnet seam to be any indication fo what "becomes inactive" actully means | |
| 14:00:50 | sean-k-mooney | i.e. is it weeks or years | |
| 14:00:53 | fungi | i don't have access to that by default (though i could get to it by adding myself to the right group) so will take your word for it | |
| 14:02:21 | sean-k-mooney | its set for cybrog and watcher as well | |
| 14:02:24 | fungi | looks like it's 60 days with no activity while in "incomplete" state, at least (not sure about what other states also trigger it, sll the examples i found so far are for previously-incomplete) | |
| 14:02:27 | sean-k-mooney | this might be on by default | |
| 14:03:21 | fungi | okay, so it might be that it's on for a bunch of projects and i've just somehow not noticed it before today | |
| 14:03:24 | sean-k-mooney | if its resticted to the incompelte state i might be ok with this on. i dont like exiring bugs in general but we only use incomplete when we are missing info | |
| 14:04:02 | fungi | yeah, i mean the example i linked above was perfectly fine to expire, consensus seemed to be that it was likely invalid anyway | |
| 14:05:24 | fungi | anyway, not an emergency, i just wanted to make sure behavior hadn't changed somewhere, but looke like it may have been doing this all along | |
| 14:08:29 | sean-k-mooney | it might have | |
| 14:08:44 | sean-k-mooney | i.e. i dont recall seeing this in a very very long time | |
| 14:08:53 | sean-k-mooney | in anycase added to opendicuss https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/Nova#Agenda_for_next_meeting | |
| 14:09:32 | sean-k-mooney | fungi: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2142042 was invlide by the way and not a secuirty bug | |
| 14:09:51 | sean-k-mooney | we only supprot pci passhtough vai the pci_alias | |
| 14:10:17 | sean-k-mooney | we have never allowed attaching pci devices via the resouce: syntax | |
| 14:10:41 | sean-k-mooney | the only thing that ever allwoe dthat was generic mdevs and i have alwasy held that was a mistake | |
| 14:11:20 | fungi | yeah, that's why i say it was fine that it expired | |
| 14:11:49 | sean-k-mooney | im going to leave a comment and mark it invlaid | |

| 17:18:56 | jayaanand | hi All, i created blueprint as per PTG discussion https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/raw-image-flexclone-optimization. Please review | |
| 17:20:06 | sean-k-mooney | so you have create a bluepitn with the conte of a spec as its decription | |
| 17:20:17 | sean-k-mooney | but you actully need to submit that spec as a review to the nova-specs repo | |
| 17:20:29 | sean-k-mooney | the describe in the plurpint shoudl jsut be the intorduction fo the spec | |
| 17:21:08 | sean-k-mooney | so you need to clone https://github.com/openstack/nova-specs | |
| 17:21:25 | sean-k-mooney | and then add your spec in teh approved folder for this cycle 2026.2 | |
| 17:21:35 | sean-k-mooney | and then submit it for review via gerrit | |
| 17:22:11 | sean-k-mooney | you can use the contet you currently have in teh blueprint. by convention the file name shoudl mattch the blurpint name with .rst | |
| 17:22:22 | sean-k-mooney | so raw-image-flexclone-optimization.rst | |
| 17:22:35 | sean-k-mooney | we have some tooling that use that to forralate the spec file and the blueprint | |
| 17:24:00 | sean-k-mooney | jayaanand: just siming it im not sure that the current direction is correct. i.e. wrapping flat with now new config value for NetAppFlexClone | |
| 17:24:13 | sean-k-mooney | well hte netap variant | |
| 17:26:26 | sean-k-mooney | i think images_type=netapp_flexcloen give you are propsoing addign a [netapp_flexclone] config section woudl be a much more natural fit | |
| 17:27:35 | sean-k-mooney | with all that said i dont think there was an general agreement that we shoudl add a vendor sepcifc image_type backend to nova | |
| 17:28:02 | sean-k-mooney | so you will have to build a concentio that that shoudl be doen before we go into the details of how | |
| 17:29:13 | sean-k-mooney | jayaanand: the vendor specific point we raised cant be sidespte by adding a spereat vendor specific cofnig option like netapp_flexclone_enabled = false | |
| 17:32:13 | sean-k-mooney | anyeya i can take a looks once its actully submited for review as a spec but i likely cant commit to reviewign this this cycle so you will need to find concnsoue to build this functionalty in general. | |

| 12:21:42 | cw0306-lee[m] | My question is, is nova's policy still same? Or is it able to suggest this subject again? | |
| 12:21:42 | cw0306-lee[m] | https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/selecting-subnet-when-creating-vm | |
| 12:21:42 | cw0306-lee[m] | Hi, nova team! I want to create blueprint about support subnet selection during vm create. However, it rejected in 2015. | |
| 12:43:22 | opendevreview | Merged openstack/nova master: Fix live migration with pinned VM and iothreads https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/988774 | |

| 13:24:40 | sean-k-mooney | cw0306-lee[m]: so nova does not want to add new networkign proxy apis in general | |
| 13:24:46 | sean-k-mooney | but the feature your askign for i think already exists | |
| 13:25:24 | sean-k-mooney | https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/#id11 | |
| 13:26:24 | sean-k-mooney | i think we can pass the subnet when we do --nic in osc | |
| 13:27:49 | sean-k-mooney | ok not quite | |
| 13:27:51 | sean-k-mooney | https://docs.openstack.org/python-openstackclient/latest/cli/command-objects/server.html#cmdoption-openstack-server-create-nic | |
| 13:28:02 | sean-k-mooney | you can pass teh ip to use but not the subnet | |
| 13:28:31 | sean-k-mooney | cw0306-lee[m]: so you cant have neutron allcoate it form a subnot | |
| 13:29:07 | sean-k-mooney | basucly our current stance is if you need anything behod a basic prot on a netork you shoudl create the port in neutron first and pass in the port uuid when creating the vm | |
| 13:31:10 | sean-k-mooney | cw0306-lee[m]: basiclly this falls under https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/contributor/project-scope.html#no-more-api-proxies | |
| 13:40:36 | cw0306-lee[m] | sean-k-mooney @_oftc_sean-k-mooney:matrix.org: Thank you for your kind reply. I asked this question because blueprint closed long time ago, so if there is a possibility of adding the option again. Thank you! | |
| 13:42:11 | sean-k-mooney | it was closed because it was nto in line with the future direction of the project. that has not really changed. we have dicussed this on an off a few times but i think the sentiment still remains that we would prefer not to | |
| 13:50:08 | cw0306-lee[m] | Is this blueprint need spec? And when can i talk this with? | |
| 13:50:08 | cw0306-lee[m] | https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/reduce-build-fail-time-base | |
| 13:50:08 | cw0306-lee[m] | Thank you! I have one more question that i made blueprint in 2025-1. | |
| 13:53:54 | sean-k-mooney | cw0306-lee[m]: that could be dicsused in a nova irc meeting as perhaps a specless blueprint | |
| 13:54:17 | sean-k-mooney | the build failure count is jsut use by the weigher to avoid the host | |
| 13:54:42 | sean-k-mooney | having it decay over time is proably a reasonabel optimisation | |
| 13:56:07 | sean-k-mooney | im not sure about doing it in the update_available_resouce perodic but perhaps. | |
| 13:56:30 | sean-k-mooney | i woudl be more incliend to have it be its own persodic and opt into ti by setting the time interval in the config | |
