| 20:36:21 | mriedem | hmm, why is tox -r -e venv giving me index error lately? | |
| 20:40:35 | bauzas | mriedem: trace ? | |
| 20:41:17 | bauzas | also, does anyone have an handy documentation about explaining how to purge/archive our soft-deleted records ? context is https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1716593 that I want to invalidate | |
| 20:41:18 | openstack | Launchpad bug 1716593 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "reservations table in nova mysql db grows constantly" [Undecided,New] | |
| 20:41:35 | mriedem | nova-manage db archive_deleted_rows | |
| 20:41:39 | bauzas | I can surely ask to run nova-manage, but a link could be awesome | |
| 20:41:43 | bauzas | mriedem: yup I know | |
| 20:41:47 | bauzas | mriedem: I just wanted some docs :) | |
| 20:42:10 | mriedem | http://paste.openstack.org/show/620973/ | |
| 20:42:28 | mriedem | bauzas: https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/cli/nova-manage.html#nova-database | |
| 20:43:27 | bauzas | mriedem: ta, adding it to the bug report | |
| 20:44:40 | bauzas | mriedem: interesting, trying locally | |
| 20:45:22 | mwynne | Hi guys. I'm trying to allocate an instance that would overcommit RAM but remain within my ratio and it fails. This document (https://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/design-compute/design-compute-overcommit.html) states that you can overcommit RAM, but the "Note" is basically saying you can't overcommit RAM. Am I missing something here? Something doesn't add up to me. | |
| 20:45:40 | mriedem | dansmith: hey, we're friends right? | |
| 20:45:53 | dansmith | mriedem: um, yes? | |
| 20:45:55 | mriedem | https://review.openstack.org/#/c/501025/ <3 | |
| 20:46:41 | cdent | mwynne: you’re not trying to allocate more virtual RAM than physical RAM are you? | |
| 20:47:31 | mwynne | cdent: I'm trying to allocate a VM that would push me over the limit of how much total physical RAM I have on my compute nodes. | |
| 20:47:43 | mwynne | But isn't that what overcommit is enabling me to do? | |
| 20:47:49 | mwynne | within the specified ratio? | |
| 20:47:56 | cdent | mwynne: for multiple vms, yes, but not for a single vm | |
| 20:48:21 | mwynne | ? | |
| 20:48:26 | bauzas | mriedem: oh snap, you just need to pass things after your venv call | |
| 20:48:31 | bauzas | hence the indexerror | |
| 20:48:43 | bauzas | something like tox -e venv -- do_something | |
| 20:49:08 | mwynne | cdent: I have something like 4GB free and I'm trying to allocate a VM with 8GB. Is that not allowed? | |
| 20:50:45 | mriedem | stephenfin: do you know of a way with nova-manage to say if an arg is an option or an argument (required)? | |
| 20:50:46 | cdent | mwynne: correct that is not allowed, since ocata | |
| 20:50:48 | bauzas | mriedem: I do confirm running something like tox -evenv -- python -i myscript.py works like a charm | |
| 20:50:58 | cdent | mwynne: and maybe before, but the mechanism for why has changed | |
| 20:51:01 | mwynne | cdent: I'm running newton.. | |
| 20:51:17 | mriedem | bauzas: never had to do that before | |
| 20:51:32 | bauzas | ? | |
| 20:51:52 | bauzas | I never saw tox -evenv without a following string | |
| 20:51:55 | bauzas | :) | |
| 20:51:58 | cdent | mriedem, bauzas, can you comment on the state of things in newton for mwynne ? | |
| 20:52:11 | cdent | mwynne: in any case: whatever the limitations, you don’t want to do that | |
| 20:52:14 | bauzas | about overcommitting ? | |
| 20:52:26 | cdent | bauzas: the mechanism thereof prior to ocata | |
| 20:52:26 | mwynne | cdent: So if I have VMs powered down they're still "taking up memory" from nova's perspective? | |
| 20:52:35 | bauzas | well in Newton, we did changed a bit where allocation ratios were defined | |
| 20:53:10 | bauzas | nova.conf ratio opts were defaulted to be read on compute nodes, else in the scheduler | |
| 20:53:36 | bauzas | apart from that, I don't see a problem with defining a ratio of 1.5 for the RAM and trying to allocate more than what you have | |
| 20:54:12 | bauzas | but asking for 8GB when you have a ratio of 1.5 and a physical host of 4GB isn't mathematically acceptable :) | |
| 20:55:21 | bauzas | I remind the default ratios : 16.0 for CPU, 1.5 for RAM and 1.0 for disk (well, the latter isn't really fully workable) | |
| 20:55:56 | mwynne | bauzas: The default for newton seems to be 0.0 for RAM | |
| 20:56:16 | openstackgerrit | Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Add nova-manage db command for ironic flavor migrations https://review.openstack.org/501025 | |
| 20:56:44 | dansmith | mriedem: ^ | |
| 20:56:47 | bauzas | mwynne: that's a flag for expressing that you need to define your ratios in the compute nova.conf | |
| 20:56:56 | bauzas | mwynne: but programmatically, it'll respect 1.5 | |
| 20:57:03 | bauzas | (if 0.0 is set by defaultà) | |
| 20:57:56 | mwynne | bauzas: Ok. I've been looking at the number of free huge pages on my compute nodes, and comparing that to what "nova hypervisor-stats" says, and the math doesn't check out. | |
| 20:58:18 | mwynne | I have tons of free pages on my nodes, but that cmd says I have 4 free gb of RAM. Something doesn't seem right there. | |
| 20:58:18 | openstackgerrit | OpenStack Proposal Bot proposed openstack/nova master: Updated from global requirements https://review.openstack.org/502700 | |
| 20:58:59 | mwynne | (And yes I'm using a flavor with HP enabled) | |
| 20:59:13 | openstackgerrit | Merged openstack/nova master: Handle keypair not found from metadata server using cells https://review.openstack.org/476122 | |
| 20:59:35 | bauzas | mwynne: sec, you want to use huge pages ? | |
| 20:59:42 | mwynne | yes | |
| 20:59:50 | bauzas | okay, that's a separate thing | |
| 21:00:07 | mwynne | Ah, ok. Sorry.. | |
| 21:00:36 | bauzas | no worries, huge pages in Nova isn't tracked the same way that a regular RAM consumption | |
| 21:01:24 | bauzas | mwynne: https://docs.openstack.org/nova/pike/admin/huge-pages.html is the one I have in mind | |
| 21:02:03 | bauzas | mwynne: have you followed that and modified your flavors by mentioning the mem_page_size for the instance you want to create ? | |
| 21:02:21 | mwynne | yes | |
| 21:02:25 | bauzas | even if that's a Pike doc, the flavor thing is identical in Newton | |
| 21:02:42 | mwynne | Yeah, I've done that. | |
| 21:02:48 | bauzas | mwynne: ok, so you did that, you wanna boot an instance and you end up having NoValidHosts ? | |
| 21:03:09 | openstackgerrit | Merged openstack/nova master: Create allocations against forced dest host during evacuate https://review.openstack.org/499399 | |
| 21:03:19 | mwynne | Insufficient compute resources: Requested instance NUMA topology cannot fit the given host NUMA topology | |
| 21:03:36 | openstackgerrit | Merged openstack/nova master: Add recreate test for evacuate claim failure https://review.openstack.org/499874 | |
| 21:03:42 | bauzas | mwynne: I actually wonder if huge pages supports and ratios can be mixed up | |
| 21:03:53 | mwynne | bauzas: I deleted some unused vms and then I could spawn it. | |
| 21:04:01 | bauzas | in general, people using huge pages are not wanting to have overallocated instances | |
| 21:04:14 | bauzas | so they default ratios to 1.0 | |
