#openstack-nova - 2018-01-26
14:36:47 efried up to the point of that in-flight patch, SchedulerReportClient was the only thing using ProviderTree, and it does need to worry about thread safety (sort of :)
14:37:02 izombie The issue I was speaking of yesterday.
14:37:26 izombie artom: It was with the project-id, it wasn't according to the new regex pattern ;)
14:37:30 artom izombie, err, refresh my memory?
14:37:49 izombie artom: was trying to list nova servers and I was hitting 404..
14:38:02 artom izombie, oh, right
14:38:10 efried rgerganov Feel like proposing that change for new_child to accept name_or_uuid for the parent?
14:38:18 rgerganov efried, yes
14:38:42 rgerganov efried, I will submit patch for it
14:38:46 artom izombie, err, cool? I'm not sure what you mean by new regex pattern
14:39:13 efried rgerganov You could *almost* cheat and pass in the name as it stands :) But that won't quiiite work all the way.
14:39:15 rgerganov efried, I also think that removing all child providers is pretty valid use case
14:39:16 izombie artom: so project mapper has introduced some change in the way project id's are supposed to be
14:39:51 efried rgerganov I would need to understand more about why that's necessary. And in any case you'll have to get it past Jay :)
14:39:56 efried Which reminds me...
14:40:02 fried_rice It's FRIDAY!
14:40:08 artom izombie, I'll be honest, I'm not following
14:40:12 izombie artom: the regex expects a hex sort of value, but our's was simple characters. hence the project id was never fetched and directly passed to routes to find a match
14:40:19 fried_rice niiice
14:40:44 radio_gaga fried_rice, you familiar with the vmware driver?
14:40:56 fried_rice radio_gaga Not at all, sorry.
14:41:00 radio_gaga fried_rice, basically one nova-compute manges a compute cluster in vcenter server
14:41:22 izombie artom: okay, this code might help you gain context https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/api/openstack/__init__.py#L156-L158
14:41:24 radio_gaga fried_rice, a compute cluster may be divided into resource pools
14:41:42 radio_gaga fried_rice, now we want to create a nested RP for each resource pool under the compute cluster managed by nova
14:41:50 fried_rice radio_gaga And you don't have n-cpu running on those other ("slave"?) nodes in the cluster?
14:42:06 radio_gaga fried_rice, no
14:42:10 fried_rice k
14:42:20 radio_gaga fried_rice, the thing is that resource pools can be dynamic
14:42:21 fried_rice what's a "resource pool"?
14:42:24 artom izombie, ah, thanks - first time looking at that bit of the API code :)
14:42:43 radio_gaga fried_rice, it's just a group of compute resources
14:42:59 radio_gaga fried_rice, the point is that those resource pools can by dynamic
14:43:34 fried_rice radio_gaga Okay, so the hierarchy is: compute-host-where-service-is-running => resource-pool => slave-compute-node
14:43:35 radio_gaga fried_rice, and it would be a lot easier if we delete all child RP and create them again instead of trying to synchronize what's in the provider_tree and what's in vcenter
14:44:44 izombie artom: :) Necessity!
14:45:56 fried_rice radio_gaga Well, you could always provider_tree.remove(nodename)
14:46:10 fried_rice and then rebuild the whole shebang including the root.
14:46:29 fried_rice .remove(nodename) will implicitly whack everything under him.
14:46:39 radio_gaga fried_rice, hm, actually that will do the job
14:46:47 radio_gaga fried_rice, cool thanks
14:47:08 radio_gaga fried_rice, I will try it just in case :)
14:47:17 fried_rice radio_gaga But have you considered having all your compute nodes as roots, and tagging them with traits to identify their resource pool?
14:48:34 radio_gaga fried_rice, having them under one root is a better model because this is the same model in vCenter; you divide one big compute cluster into resource pools
14:50:01 fried_rice radio_gaga As you wish, just another possibility. Or have the slaves all be children directly under the root, and still tag 'em with resource pool trait name.
14:50:41 radio_gaga fried_rice, yeah, that's what I am trying to accomplish right now
14:51:12 fried_rice radio_gaga Point is, then you don't need to whack all the pools and rebuild them - you can just walk the children and reassign their traits.
14:51:49 leakypipes radio_gaga: awesome Friday nick :)
14:51:59 radio_gaga leakypipes, thanks :)
14:52:44 radio_gaga leakypipes, we were discussing changing provider_tree.new_child to accept name_or_uuid instead of uuid
14:52:59 fried_rice leakypipes IMO an oversight, easily corrected. Agree?
14:53:19 fried_rice leakypipes correction: parent_name_or_uuid instead of parent_uuid
14:53:30 radio_gaga yeah, right
14:54:29 leakypipes fried_rice: how about just "parent"
14:54:34 fried_rice sure
14:54:36 leakypipes fried_rice: and make it accept either.
14:54:37 ameeda can you please review this when you available ? https://review.openstack.org/#/c/528385/
14:54:43 fried_rice radio_gaga is going to propose it
15:02:39 tssurya superdan, mriedem, melwitt : regarding the solution we discussed for nova list displaying only the uuid when a cell DB is down, there is this issue that we end up displaying all the instance uuids in that cell (including the deleted ones)...since we take it from the mappings, :(
15:03:05 tssurya any ideas on how to differentiate the deleted ones using api info ?
15:03:16 melwitt there isn't a way
15:03:21 superdan mm, yep, that's not really avoidable unfortunately
15:03:21 leakypipes ameeda: those are bug fixes. we can get to those as needed over next few weeks.
15:03:43 tssurya melwitt, superdan : ok :(
15:06:23 leakypipes JGrg543#1
15:06:34 superdan nice
15:06:40 belmoreira superdan that isn't good
15:06:53 leakypipes oops. now y'all know my verizon laptop password.
15:07:17 ameeda leakpipes: if you can review it for me as you can, to let me know if that is good or not.
15:07:25 superdan belmoreira: referring to leakypipes' password or the deleted instances thing?
15:08:02 SpazZz Perfect
15:08:08 belmoreira :) referring to the readonly replica idea
15:08:12 radio_gaga I am going to +2 all my patches with jay's account
15:08:24 SpazZz We handing out +2s?
15:08:34 SpazZz Will pay in baked chicken
15:08:34 leakypassword radio_gaga: good luck :) it's only for my mac laptop (which I hate and don't use for anything) ;)
15:09:20 SpazZz password has been secured. Pipe is again at risk
15:10:30 leakypipes heh
15:13:09 leakypipes superdan, mdbooth, mriedem: if someone is using qcow2 images in glance, with ceph as the backing store, what is the most efficient way to do instance snapshots? is it setting snapshot_image_format=raw or is there some ceph-specific efficient snapshotting method?
15:13:42 sean-k-mooney finucannot: leakypipes superdan just noticed we are at/past feature freeze can https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/enable-sriov-nic-features get a FFE i ame working on the last change finucannot asked for currently so i think this will be done this evening
15:14:00 melwitt leakypipes: you have to configure raw image format in glance
15:15:05 melwitt http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/rbd/rbd-openstack/
15:16:19 leakypipes sean-k-mooney: I don't have a problem with it, but mriedem is the decider-in-chief
15:17:41 leakypipes melwitt: lol, I love how the ceph docs refer to a thing called "OpenStack" -- as if it were a single thing.
15:17:49 leakypipes "Install OpenStack"
15:17:51 leakypipes heh
15:17:58 melwitt yeah, totally simple
15:19:17 openstackgerrit Radoslav Gerganov proposed openstack/nova master: ProviderTree.new_child: parent is either uuid or name https://review.openstack.org/538264
15:19:19 jroll leakypipes: https://i.imgur.com/rCr9A.png
15:19:20 sean-k-mooney leakypipes: :) ok ill send a mail to the list requestion the FFE mriedem i hope you dont mind if i cc you. im currently working on the changes now so the final version should be up before i leave today unless there are new review comments.
15:19:42 melwitt leakypipes: you probably need snapshot_image_format = raw too if that will dictate what format the image ends up in glance. the root point is that the image format in glance must be raw for ceph's native cow clone stuff to work
15:19:51 radio_gaga leakypipes, fried_rice https://review.openstack.org/#/c/538264
15:20:40 superdan jroll: love it
15:21:08 jroll :D
15:21:20 kashyap Can anyone explain what exactly is 'nova live-igration-force-complete' doing under the hood? /me goes to look at source meanwhile
15:22:01 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: reno for notification-transformation-queens https://review.openstack.org/518018
15:22:17 giblet mriedem: ^^
15:22:54 leakypipes jroll: lol, that's awesome
15:22:59 openstackgerrit Radoslav Gerganov proposed openstack/nova master: ProviderTree.new_child: parent is either uuid or name https://review.openstack.org/538264
15:24:55 fried_rice radio_gaga Small test addition please.
