10:30:31 mdbooth Yes
10:30:33 johnthetubaguy tojuvone: yeah, the aim here is to cover your use cases in a way that fits with long term direction of the APIs etc
10:30:57 johnthetubaguy tojuvone: so keep all the use cases and problems that need to be solved, and concentrate on getting a good user story
10:31:17 johnthetubaguy tojuvone: the negotiation here is on how we implement it, and where the hard stuff goes
10:32:06 bauzas mdbooth: well, the fact is that it depends on what's behind the BDM, right?
10:32:40 bauzas mdbooth: but whatever it is, it's still capping at the maximum size given by the flavor ?
10:32:51 tojuvone johnthetubaguy, Yes and there is different sides. Generic "host state" to be outside with notif about change makes it again easier to catch that in monitoring hosts
10:32:57 mdbooth bauzas: Yes, flavor is a maximum.
10:33:37 mdbooth The issue reported here is that if your instances are predominantly BFV, then RM thinks you ran out of disk long before you actually did.
10:34:02 mdbooth In fact, RM thinks you have negative disk space
10:34:06 bauzas mdbooth: but those instances could max out up to that size
10:34:21 johnthetubaguy tojuvone: yeah, lets get that admin view and user view pinned down nicely
10:34:40 mdbooth bauzas: Interesting idea. Not without rescheduling, I think.
10:34:56 mdbooth bauzas: I think you'd have to resize.
10:35:08 bauzas mdbooth: if my BDM source type is image
10:35:19 mdbooth Even then, can you change the non-volume bdms?
10:36:00 lyarwood don't we have periodic jobs already checking the sizes of local disks etc on each of the hosts? I assumed we were already reporting this somewhere for quotas etc?
10:36:13 bauzas the size on the disk can grow for a non-volume, right?
10:36:26 mdbooth bauzas: I can't think of anything in the libvirt driver which allows resizing/adding ephemeral disks, except for the resize operation
10:36:30 mdbooth bauzas: No
10:36:41 mdbooth This isn't overcommit.
10:36:55 bauzas I'm puzzled honestly
10:36:56 mdbooth This is, the user specified a BDM with a smaller disk size.
10:37:07 mdbooth Or in the case of BFV, no disk at all.
10:37:34 bauzas okay, let's admit a flavor of 0
10:40:53 bauzas mdbooth: tbh, I'm not particularly seasoned with BDMs, so reading https://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/block_device_mapping.html
10:41:11 mdbooth bauzas: You're not alone :)
10:41:41 bauzas mdbooth: I mean, I trust you when you describe it could be suboptimal
10:42:03 bauzas mdbooth: I'm just tryint to get more picture to know whether it's by design
10:42:40 bauzas mdbooth: lemme explain
10:42:50 mdbooth bauzas: So I'm not that familiar with the resource manager code, which was probably pretty apparent yesterday
10:43:15 bauzas mdbooth: that's how community works :)
10:43:17 mdbooth I have a vague understanding of what happens, but I'm not entirely sure which bits do what, or even what all the bits are. So I did some digging.
10:44:07 mdbooth I *think* that code above is what RM ultimately uses to update the scheduler's understanding of host resource usage, based on scheduling a specific instance.
10:44:34 mdbooth Which I *think* means that, if it's wrong, something up the line will ultimately add up a bunch of wrong numbers.
10:54:03 openstackgerrit jichenjc proposed openstack/nova master: add zvm migration object https://review.openstack.org/414090
10:58:00 BobBall mriedem: Many thanks for your help + shepherding on the XAPI live migration fix :) I'm really glad it made Ocata. Now it's up to us to make sure it doesn't happen again.
11:11:05 openstackgerrit Sivasathurappan Radhakrishnan proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Live Migration of Rescued Instances https://review.openstack.org/347161
11:18:51 openstackgerrit Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova master: encryptors: Switch to os-brick encryptor classes https://review.openstack.org/391597

11:36:55 openstackgerrit Silvan Kaiser proposed openstack/nova master: Removes getfattr from Quobyte Nova driver https://review.openstack.org/428646
11:41:35 mdbooth bauzas: Hey, what does scheduler/client/report.py do? That's also not quite right.
11:41:58 bauzas mdbooth: it's both updating the DB and also calling the placement API
11:42:13 openstackgerrit Artom Lifshitz proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Virtual guest device role tagging https://review.openstack.org/435397
11:42:38 mdbooth bauzas: Is the behaviour of DiskFilter provided by anything else, btw?
11:42:47 mdbooth Can we just deprecate it in favour of X?
11:59:00 openstackgerrit Sean Dague proposed openstack/nova master: Verify project_id when quotas are checked https://review.openstack.org/435010
12:01:43 lyarwood sdague: morning, just looking at https://review.openstack.org/#/c/433825/ - would https://review.openstack.org/435406 - disabling gate-tempest-dsvm-full-devstack-plugin-ceph-ubuntu-trusty for stable/mitaka help here?
12:02:14 lyarwood or should we skip this with another devstack rc file?
12:02:34 lyarwood s/skip this/skip the test/g
12:03:04 sdague lyarwood: yeh, we could make it non voting on mitaka to get that other fix in
12:03:42 sdague lyarwood: is anyone working on the ceph issue?
12:04:21 lyarwood sdague: I was about to add the fact that it's non-voting to the ptg etherpad, I don't think anyone is working on it tbh
12:06:37 bauzas mdbooth: so, the DiskFilter is now legacy
12:06:53 bauzas mdbooth: given we now use the Placement API for verifying the disk usage
12:07:08 bauzas we still use it for the CachingScheduler
12:07:28 mdbooth bauzas: So it's worth fixing ResourceTracker?
12:08:32 bauzas mdbooth: well, the RT is still used for providing the resources
12:08:48 mdbooth bauzas: Ok, cool.
12:08:49 bauzas mdbooth: when are you arriving in ATL ? we could be discussing about that during the PTG
12:09:12 mdbooth bauzas: You forget :)
12:10:04 mdbooth ATL or the alps... which to choose?
12:10:05 cdent wait, does this mean that I won't get a chance to have the beers with mdbooth that I was supposed to have in BCN in ATL?
12:10:18 mdbooth cdent: Bah!
12:10:23 bauzas mdbooth: ooooooh right :p
12:10:42 cdent I was coping just fine until now, but this is the last straw.
12:10:46 bauzas mdbooth: lemme just take a picture for you :p
12:10:51 mdbooth cdent: lol
12:10:59 mdbooth bauzas: Yeah, yeah, I know
12:11:27 mdbooth cdent: If we took an American view, we both live in London and could therefore meet up any time
12:11:50 lyarwood mdbooth: it's just down the road from you right?
12:11:51 cdent heh, yeah. weird that.
12:12:09 bauzas heh
12:12:23 bauzas mdbooth: snow will be awesome
12:12:28 mdbooth cdent: Wait, do you actually live in London?
12:12:33 cdent cornwall
12:12:40 mdbooth Right... :)
12:12:47 mdbooth South West London
12:12:54 cdent ha!
12:13:16 cdent When bauzas goes outside he sees the snowy mountains. I see the shining blue sea.
12:13:16 lyarwood the commuter belt
12:13:34 mdbooth lyarwood: lol
12:13:48 cdent it certainly feels that way
12:14:35 bauzas heh
12:14:55 mdbooth bauzas: Weather in the mountains next week looks nice
12:21:22 bauzas correct
12:24:07 bauzas mdbooth: just teasing a bit, here is what I had last Sat https://scontent-cdg2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t35.0-12/16709262_10210130727278505_1924147998_o.jpg?oh=da67edbd122e61da21a7d59e8cd13ae7&oe=58A9279F
12:24:15 bauzas :)
12:24:43 mdbooth bauzas: git
12:24:46 bauzas 80cm of pow or around
12:24:53 bauzas and just fresh
12:25:10 mdbooth VT hasn't had fresh for about a week, I think
12:25:31 bauzas planned for tonight IIRC
12:26:07 bauzas either way, I recommend you to enjoy on mornings, afternoons could be a bit not that good
