16:42:46 dansmith alaski: right
16:42:56 mriedem alaski: but we also just have the generic 'we have no idea'
16:42:57 dansmith alaski: I was thinking that's really the case we most care about today
16:43:32 mriedem this https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/manager.py#L2003
16:43:33 alaski mriedem: I don't think you need two schedulers. I think the scheduler shouldn't live at the API level. Think of it more like cinder, outside of cells fully
16:43:42 alaski dansmith: yep, agreed
16:44:01 dansmith alaski: um, scheduler shouldn't live at the api level? what does that mean?
16:44:05 mriedem if you have one scheduler, and you want to retry, then we'd have to upcall to that top level scheduler
16:44:36 dansmith mriedem: I definitely don't want to have multiple schedulers to handle the reschedule case
16:44:41 alaski dansmith: I mean start to think of the scheduler as outside of Nova. Just as cinder doesn't live at the API level I wouldn't lump the scheduler there either
16:45:17 mriedem API level == global to me
16:45:21 alaski otherwise you do have to have an upcall to reschedule, or have two levels
16:45:22 dansmith alaski: well, there's the architecture diagram and then there's the plumbing of how to talk to it :)
16:45:23 mriedem neutron, cinder, placement, keystone, etc
16:45:58 dansmith scheduler isn't a REST service which means we're a little constrained from just talking to it from wherever
16:46:12 alaski dansmith: yep. And this is where my knowledge has gaps, but I thought a scheduler API was being stood up, which would allow talking to it from anywhere
16:46:12 dansmith although, I will re-point out the scheduler-is-just-a-library helps with this :)
16:46:21 dansmith alaski: that's placement
16:46:30 dansmith alaski: and it's only part of the act of scheduling a thing
16:46:44 alaski gotcha
16:47:00 bauzas dansmith: I'm basically +1 on the idea of merging filtering/weighting in the conductor
16:47:12 bauzas so I think it's reasonable
16:47:28 bauzas but here, I'm more concerned by having the claims being implemented *before* that
16:47:31 dansmith it'd be super interesting to use scheduler as a library for reschedules
16:47:45 bauzas we sorta do that already
16:47:54 dansmith bauzas: well, then I think you have to nuke the reschedules if you're going to do it first
16:47:59 bauzas we have a scheduler.utils module that computes use for that purpose
16:48:06 dansmith bauzas: temporarily, if you want, to be reopened later
16:48:21 bauzas I dunno, and my wife is yelling at me because of dinner time :('
16:48:22 dansmith hey I have a crazy idea
16:48:28 dansmith how about we ask an operator?
16:48:32 mriedem i was going to say,
16:48:43 bauzas can someone could just press the "pause" button for real life things?
16:48:45 mriedem we can agree we need to pass a flag down to the compute to tell it to not claim because we already did it at the top
16:49:00 mriedem for the reschedule thing, we have a session proposed for claims in the scheduler already,
16:49:02 bauzas that, I'm all good with
16:49:13 mriedem i think we could hash out the reschedule thing at that session since operators are supposed to be there
16:49:20 bauzas good lord
16:49:22 dansmith mriedem: sounds good to me
16:49:45 bauzas okay, let me just write some stuff and put that in the spec as a big PITA
16:49:49 mriedem that's assuming (1) that session is picked and (2) anyone shows up
16:50:14 bauzas yeah
16:50:14 dansmith mriedem: well, if it's not picked we can do something else
16:50:26 dansmith mriedem: if it is and they don't show up, then, I dunno, I guess they approve of whatever outcome :P
16:50:30 bauzas open a thread and leave people arguing forever \o/
16:50:57 bauzas either way, I really need to drop off for family business :(
16:50:59 mriedem dansmith: and yell at us 18 months later :)
16:51:05 mriedem that's all par for the course really
16:51:11 dansmith mriedem: I'll be flippin burgers by then
16:51:21 mriedem beet farming for me
16:51:28 bauzas I got a new project
16:51:36 bauzas Burgers-As-a-Service
16:51:42 dansmith bauzas: you really like us better than your wife?
16:51:53 bauzas I do *love* my wife
16:51:56 bauzas even my kids
16:52:14 bauzas but sometimes, work/life balance is hard :)
16:52:20 mriedem dude, just go
16:56:26 mriedem ok, i think he's gone. now let's undo all of the claims stuff behind his back!
16:56:46 dansmith heh
17:03:24 namnh dansmith: Hi Mr.Smith, may I confirm with you a point?
17:06:26 dansmith namnh: you can try :)
17:06:47 namnh dansmith: thanks for your reply
17:06:52 namnh dansmith: Currenlty, Nova supported rolling-upgrade feature, it means old services in Nova can interact with new services. For example nova-api(Mitaka) can interact with nova-conductor(Nova). Is that right?
17:07:22 dansmith namnh: no. That statement is true for control services vs. computes, but that's all currently
17:07:30 dansmith namnh: i.e. api and conductor must be the same level, but compute may be old
17:10:37 namnh dansmith: during upgrade, I can use the "pinning version" option in nova.conf. I.e, during I upgrade M -> Newton, I can pin version in nova.conf at mitaka release
17:11:55 namnh dansmith: so in my understading, conductor can still interact with api at old release. am i right?
17:15:37 dansmith namnh: no
17:15:49 dansmith namnh: at no point can you have different versions of conductor and api
17:17:28 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/python-novaclient master: Remove deprecated network APIs https://review.openstack.org/447728
17:19:33 namnh dansmith: so it means that I have turn off all conductors and apis at the same time and then upgrade and start these services at the same time.
17:19:54 namnh dansmith: so it means that I have to turn off all conductors and apis at the same time and then upgrade and start these services at the same time.
17:20:03 mriedem sdague: i addressed the stuff you and alex_xu wanted to see in the os-services/os-hypervisors spec https://review.openstack.org/#/c/447149/, it's got a +2 from dansmith
17:20:16 mriedem dtp: have you started on the change to add uuid to the services table?
17:20:35 dansmith namnh: yes
17:25:14 namnh dansmith: thanks for your answer, I think I need to research more deeply Nova's document for this case
17:25:49 mriedem namnh: https://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/upgrade.html in case you haven't seen that yet
17:27:14 sdague mriedem: looking
17:28:34 openstackgerrit Maxim Nestratov proposed openstack/nova master: libvirt: Virtuozzo containers config drive support https://review.openstack.org/449818
17:29:08 namnh mriedem: thanks. Surely, I will research more deeply the link.
17:29:41 mriedem looks like we need to clarify between cells v1 and v2 in there
17:30:33 mriedem sdague: thanks. i'm going to update the searchlight spec after lunch.
17:32:15 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Distinguish between cells v1 and v2 in upgrades doc https://review.openstack.org/452872
17:36:38 dtp mriedem about to now, why?
17:36:47 mriedem dtp: was just wondering
17:39:03 sdague mriedem: great
17:48:25 openstackgerrit Rodolfo Alonso Hernandez proposed openstack/nova master: Read Neutron port 'binding_profile' during boot https://review.openstack.org/449257
18:21:01 tjones mriedem: one of my guys want to work on https://review.openstack.org/#/c/402256 but we cannot restore it. does the owner have to restore? I thought we could take it over
18:24:51 ildikov mriedem: would the Cinder Nova meeting work for an hour earlier (1600 UTC) on Thursdays?
18:25:25 mriedem tjones: i've restored it
18:25:32 mriedem ildikov: for me yes
18:25:44 ildikov mriedem: cool, tnx
18:30:08 clarkb tjones: any core or the owner can restore
18:41:38 openstackgerrit Chris Dent proposed openstack/nova master: Optional separate database for placement API https://review.openstack.org/362766
18:44:20 openstackgerrit Simon Dodsley proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Enhanced KVM Storage QoS https://review.openstack.org/340168

18:56:36 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova-specs master: List instances using Searchlight (spec) https://review.openstack.org/441692
18:56:37 mriedem sdague: there you go ^
18:58:06 openstackgerrit Simon Dodsley proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Enhanced KVM Storage QoS https://review.openstack.org/340168
19:14:45 mordred mriedem, sdague: SO - over the weekend I was working on replacing the create server snapshot image call in shade with pure-rest - and I discovered that the value that nova returns in the header is wrong on at least 1 public cloud - but nobody has likely noticed because novaclient doesn't directly use the url returned, instead it pops the id off the end and uses that
