#openstack-nova - 2026-06-08
16:26:44 sean-k-mooney i think that is fine but just wanted to make sure we were ok with that
16:26:50 sean-k-mooney it wont affect bugs in any other state
16:27:28 sean-k-mooney if we are i can go make sure that is set the same for all the nova repos
16:27:33 gibi I'm fine to close bugs that sitting in incomplete for 90 days
16:27:41 Uggla same for me
16:27:57 sean-k-mooney since it puts them in the exired state we can also find them again
16:28:03 sean-k-mooney because we dont use that for anythign else
16:28:38 sean-k-mooney if there is no objection then ill go re enable it in nova/placment and check if tis enabeld in the other nova repos
16:28:56 Uggla ok
16:29:27 sean-k-mooney the second topic is https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/990728
16:29:52 sean-k-mooney so that didnt merge after like 5 or more recheck because it hit many other unrleated gate bugs
16:30:04 sean-k-mooney we have fixed at least 2 if not 3 of them since then
16:30:21 sean-k-mooney none of the rechecks failed on the kernel painc it was intended to test
16:30:34 sean-k-mooney so it looks like using prepoulated images does infact prevent the kernel panic
16:31:12 sean-k-mooney so we coudl recheck this and get more data or we could abandon it as i think we have confirmed at this point that that is the underlying issue
16:31:38 sean-k-mooney i.e. if teh vm boot is interupted because we resize or reboot the vm while the rootfs is beign copied from the initram
16:31:58 sean-k-mooney then we get teh "trying to kill init" panic we have been seeign for the last few years
16:32:39 sean-k-mooney im goign to followup with the cirros folks to prepare a 0.6.4 release with a new pre-poulated image
16:32:42 sean-k-mooney and some other fixes
16:33:05 sean-k-mooney so i guess the only quesiton i have is do we want to continue trying to do the experiment
16:33:29 sean-k-mooney or will i abandon those patche or atleast drop +w and just recheck to do more testing if needed
16:33:53 Uggla any idea of the frequency of the crashes ?
16:34:01 gibi will this be fixed by cirros folks, or we need something home made cirros imagae?
16:34:05 sean-k-mooney about 20 times a day in novas gate
16:34:19 sean-k-mooney there are other workarounds
16:34:31 sean-k-mooney which is we can make it less likely by waithing for sshable
16:34:42 sean-k-mooney before we do reboots or resizes
16:34:59 sean-k-mooney gibi: i have propesed prs to cirros
16:35:02 sean-k-mooney to fix it
16:35:28 sean-k-mooney but we need ot undersnad the currnet maintaince sate of the cirros project in general
16:35:47 sean-k-mooney gibi: worst case we will fork it again but im hoping we can fix it upstream
16:36:04 Uggla ++ checking for sshable
16:36:23 sean-k-mooney checking for sshable is really just a workaround
16:36:42 sean-k-mooney but we coudl do it in the couple fo tests that are impacted
16:36:55 gibi sean-k-mooney: OK, lets see what the cirros folks say
16:37:16 sean-k-mooney waitign for sshable mostly means we shoudl have compelted the rootfs copy
16:37:17 gibi I'm OK to add sshable checks to the impacted test
16:37:34 Uggla maybe not ideal but better loosing a bit of time to be ready than crashing. IMHO
16:37:37 sean-k-mooney ack i can see if we can come up with a list
16:37:56 sean-k-mooney basiclly its any test that rebots a vm or does a resize
16:38:02 sean-k-mooney it happen mroe on the bfv tests
16:38:12 sean-k-mooney just because of the extra overhead
16:38:37 sean-k-mooney the 2 ways it manifest is the panic
16:38:39 sean-k-mooney or ssh failing
16:38:55 sean-k-mooney the latter is because if we coppy the root fs but have not writeen the athrised key
16:39:10 sean-k-mooney there was a race in cirros that ment it woudl not do that on the next boot
16:39:22 sean-k-mooney waiting for sshable shoudl cover both cases
16:39:42 sean-k-mooney to wrap this up wil i abandon my test patches for now?
16:40:27 gibi sure
16:40:45 Uggla unless you want to contnue
16:40:45 sean-k-mooney ok i can revive them later anway
16:41:13 sean-k-mooney for now i think i got the data i wanted to confrim the thory
16:41:27 sean-k-mooney so we can move on with a target tempest patch for sshable
16:41:39 sean-k-mooney and then check in again ocne that is merged
16:42:29 gibi cool
16:43:58 Uggla fine by me
16:44:14 Uggla Anything else you want to discuss ?
16:44:30 Uggla If not I think we are done.
16:45:13 Uggla So time to close, thanks for joining this meeting. Have a nice day/evening.

16:40:40 Mike-- nice dansmith, that would open up an path to actually migrate a instance between az's given x,y,z are also available (example cinder replicated storage)
16:41:08 dansmith Mike--: that's the idea :)
16:41:10 sean-k-mooney Mike--: you can do that today provide the vm is not pinned to an az
16:41:24 sean-k-mooney but dansmith's patch allows you to do it for even pinned instnaces
16:41:51 Mike-- I was thinking in the pinned AZ mode yes, but you are right sean-k-mooney
16:42:26 sean-k-mooney pinning is not the default :) even if it ofen is what happens in reality
16:43:00 sean-k-mooney horizon used to require you to selct an az in the past
16:43:02 Mike-- it might be inheritely pinned due to some other factor (like cinder)
16:43:17 sean-k-mooney yes althoguh that is also off by defualt
16:43:24 Mike-- ye
16:43:30 sean-k-mooney cross az attach is allowed by default and what we normally recomemnd
16:43:50 Mike-- for clarity, I've been deep diving on Openstack since ~4 months now and the more I peel off the more features I find :)
