18:25:36 mriedem it's in the instance_extras table
18:25:42 dansmith mgagne: the instance has the flavor stashed with it in the cell db now
18:25:43 dansmith yeah that
18:25:48 mriedem the instance.flavor is stored separately keyed per the the instance
18:25:50 mgagne oh, you get a copy of the flavor right
18:25:51 mriedem in case the flavor is deleted
18:25:51 dansmith so you only need it in the api db for build and list
18:27:08 mgagne so this would mean I could delete content of instance_types in compute cell db just like the original migration tried to do.
18:27:32 mriedem yeah, the api isn't going to read flavors out of the cell dbs
18:27:43 mgagne awesome news then
18:27:45 dansmith probably should to make sure nothing falls back to that when it shouldn't, since it'll go away
18:28:00 mgagne yes, that's my main concern
18:28:38 mgagne so if I skip flavor migration in cell, does it mean entries are now orphan and can be deleted (and not migrated). I guess that's my question.
18:28:49 mgagne I suppose I can test a bit.
18:28:54 mriedem i believe so
18:30:02 mriedem when migrating flavors from child cells to the api db, it handles duplicates (per the flavorid) so should be fine https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/stable/ocata/nova/objects/flavor.py#L755
18:30:15 dansmith mgagne: if they're all the same then yeah
18:30:23 dansmith mgagne: which I think they have to be right?
18:30:23 mgagne yes, they are the same.
18:30:25 mriedem as in you could have m1.tiny in 4 cells but with different primary key ids, but the online data migration wouldn't carry over the primary key id, just create a new flavor in the api db
18:30:49 mriedem right, for each flavor in cell db, create in api db, ignore duplicates
18:30:50 mgagne mriedem: afaik, you can't have different primary key id =)
18:31:02 dansmith yeah,
18:31:07 mriedem well, i mean you could have m1.tiny in different cells with the same id=1
18:31:11 dansmith because it's referenced directly by the instance by id
18:31:14 mriedem but you can only have one m1.tiny in the api db
18:31:14 dansmith mriedem: I don't hink so
18:31:20 mgagne lot of gotcha in cellsv1 that assumes primary key is the same everywhere
18:31:27 mriedem oh, well that i didn't know
18:31:34 dansmith mriedem: in old school nova, instance.instance_type_id refers to flavor.id
18:31:35 mriedem all the more reason to get off cells v1 :)
18:31:39 dansmith so they have to be identical AFAIK
18:31:40 mgagne I got bitten in the past...
18:31:59 dansmith are we comparing scars now?
18:32:03 mgagne hehehe
18:32:08 dansmith :)
18:32:11 mriedem so i guess the 354 data migration blocker isn't so bad for you
18:32:20 mriedem you just needed to run the online data migratoin on each cell db
18:32:22 mgagne I'm sure yours are more numerous than mines
18:33:00 mgagne alright, will go back to my ffu dungeon then :D
18:34:27 mriedem say hi to lyaaaaaaaarwood for me
18:35:40 mgagne is it a friend or some beast I should find and fight in the dungeon? :D
18:36:18 mgagne oh, a ffu expert :D
18:36:47 openstackgerrit Chris Dent proposed openstack/nova stable/queens: Ensure resource class cache when listing usages https://review.openstack.org/573811
18:38:18 mriedem lyaaaaaaaarwood is a level 12 FFU paladin with a ring of +3 "soft speaking"
18:46:17 mriedem cfriesen: https://review.openstack.org/573813
18:49:18 mriedem cfriesen: openstack server migration list / abort etc is probably good yeah
18:49:21 mriedem since we have openstack server migrate
18:49:29 mriedem and don't want to get confused with openstack volume migrate
18:49:37 mriedem i leave stuff like that up to the osc ux wizards
20:12:19 jroll is it expected that we should be able to run 'show' or 'delete' via openstackclient on instances in cell0?
20:12:22 jroll using ocata
20:12:50 jroll even list bombs out
20:13:19 jroll http://paste.openstack.org/show/6YrSmjMSo0lIxyFjbPIz/
20:13:35 jroll looks like it's hitting the wrong database when trying to refresh the instance in _load_flavor()
20:14:21 jroll looks like this bug which expired: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1749167
20:14:23 openstack Launchpad bug 1749167 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "nova show can not get an instance information, and this instance can be queried from nova list." [Undecided,Expired]
20:14:42 jroll by the way bowser was trying to ask about the actual scheduling problem, sounds like maybe this is expected?
20:17:21 melwitt jroll: I don't think it's expected
20:18:22 melwitt we had bugs around instance list/show back then, which we fixed. I'm looking through bugs to see if any were this
20:18:27 temka The fact that it's hitting it in flavor...
20:18:41 jroll I didn't immediately see it searching everything for "cell0"
20:18:43 melwitt you have the latest ocata or an earlier one?
20:18:52 jroll should be latest, lemme verify
20:18:54 melwitt yeah, I'm not immediately finding anything either
20:19:03 melwitt it's hard to find these things
20:19:59 jroll well wtf, our latest upstream commit is 125dd1f30fdaf50182256c56808a5199856383c7
20:20:04 jroll which was february
20:20:22 melwitt I'm not sure if it matters, just wanted to make sure I understand which code you have
20:20:49 jroll it matters that I have a broken assumption :)
20:22:24 jroll similar: https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/e0c1d461af0701adb94e6974f363e12395ed0162
20:22:42 jroll but I don't think it's the same
20:23:11 temka jroll, 2e68b2298e94a15d1282c0fb46804b9efa6c8b3a ?
20:23:30 temka Seems old tho
20:23:40 jroll yeah, we would have that
20:24:19 melwitt it's trying to lazy-load the flavor from the database, first thing it does while doing that is the lookup the instance, and that is not found because it's looking in the wrong database
20:24:29 jroll exactly
20:24:32 melwitt this sounds so familiar, just not finding a bug that matches yet
20:24:41 temka melwitt, yep, same here
20:24:46 temka I swear I've seen this
20:25:40 jroll melwitt: in the meantime, we can manually delete it from cell0.instances and nova_api.instance_mappings, trigger a quota reset... will all the other tables get cleaned up on delete?
20:28:10 melwitt I will say that ocata is particularly fraught with problems because the way we were doing cell targeting back then had some fundamental problems which we changed in pike, but was a huge change that backporting would involve backporting a ton of disjointed things in pike, so we abandoned it
20:28:57 jroll mmm
20:28:59 melwitt (assuming that things are okay-enough in ocata. if they're not, then we have to find another way to solve it)
20:29:53 melwitt jroll: yeah, I think that would do it as a manual cleanup. are you seeing this on/during an upgrade or on already-upgraded-and-been-running clusters?
20:30:24 jroll melwitt: already upgraded
20:30:39 jroll we shut down the API for this upgrade
20:30:42 melwitt jroll: okay, so any new instance that fails to schedule gets in this un-listable state
20:31:02 jroll trying to verify that now
20:31:10 jroll this instance is still in BUILD, rather than ERROR
20:31:19 jroll and is the only thing in instance_mappings with cell_id=NULL
20:31:44 melwitt oh, that's interesting. but yet it's in cell0, in BUILD state but not ERROR
20:32:17 jroll yep
20:32:22 jroll and built > 16 hours ago
20:32:28 melwitt cell_id=NULL is a problem. that should be cell0 if it's in cell0
20:32:32 melwitt hmm
20:32:40 jroll task_state=scheduling
20:32:51 jroll so it's like it got dropped by rabbit or something? idk
20:33:53 melwitt yeah, I dunno. we have also heard from CERN folks of some instance_mappings ending up with cell_id=NULL but I've not understood the conditions under which it happened
20:35:21 melwitt while instances are in the middle of scheduling, they are supposed to be listed/shown using their build_requests in the nova_api database, IIRC
