#openstack-nova - 2018-07-02
19:21:35 efried But SR-IOV is special (even more so) on power.
19:22:28 efried We virtualize the VF through the virtial I/O servers. (That's three virtuals in that sentence.) This allows us to do redundancy at the platform level (rather than aggregation at the VM) and it also enables live migration of SR-IOV VMs.
19:23:07 efried But - the discovery and plug steps are much the same in the sense that we do them by making REST calls.
19:23:34 efried It's just the nova flow that's totally different at the moment. I'm actually not sure how we're going to do SR-IOV with placement. Maybe just not, yet.
19:23:45 efried edmondsw: Have we considered ^ ?
19:24:22 Sundar Power's mgmt vs. hypervisor split sounds a bit like Xen's Dom 0 vs hypervisor split, except Xen drivers in dom0 can access devices directly (no REST API needed). Does that sound about right?
19:26:14 efried I'm afraid I don't know.
19:27:59 Sundar OK, let me process that a bit. Thanks, efried. I didn't think I would get a crash course in Power as part of Cyborg development. ;)
19:28:15 efried Sundar: Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.
19:28:35 efried And I'll thank you not to use "crash" and "Power" in the same sentence again.
19:28:41 efried Never happens.
19:28:54 Sundar haha, sure.
19:29:23 efried Thanks for the chat, Sundar. Keep up the good work, sir.
19:29:54 Sundar NP. Take care, efried.
19:56:10 edmondsw efried that's long... what were you asking?
19:56:59 efried edmondsw: What, if anything, our plan is for porting our SR-IOV support over to placement-land
19:57:55 edmondsw efried I thought you were considering that, but I have not spent time on it
19:59:02 efried edmondsw: I haven't really considered it yet, no. I think for the forseeable future if we continue to expose SR-IOV devices via PCI passthrough it will *probably* just work with the GPU-via-placement stuff.
19:59:13 efried But eventually we'll want to get it all into placement-land.
19:59:22 efried I just don't know what that's going to look like.
20:00:00 edmondsw I must be missing something. Hasn't SR-IOV been one of the example use cases in several conversations?
20:00:20 efried example use case of what, in conversations about what?
20:00:38 edmondsw placement, traits, resource providers, etc.
20:00:44 edmondsw nrp
20:00:49 efried I've talked a lot about SR-IOV in general, hypothetical terms when discussing those things, yes.
20:01:05 efried But we haven't ever gone into the specifics.

11:01:35 hyunsikyang Hello all
11:01:35 hyunsikyang I am Hyunsik Yang at Soongsil Unviersity, South Korea.
11:01:35 hyunsikyang In the OPNFV project, especially, infra WG, i am trying to provide vBaremetal environment for testing the OPNFV platform.
11:01:35 hyunsikyang For that, IPMI and PXE should be supported well like as a physical server.
11:01:35 hyunsikyang However, in the current OpenStack environment, NOVA manages the lifecycle of the VM, so IPMI operation based on KVM does not work normally.
11:01:36 hyunsikyang To support this, NOVA should support IPMI and PXE. Therefore, this proposal intends to add a function for normal control ofIPMI and PXE in NOVA.
11:01:36 hyunsikyang So, i uploaded spec first. If anyone who interested in this proposal, Please review it.
11:01:37 hyunsikyang Thanks.
11:01:37 hyunsikyang The link is below.

11:03:52 lyarwood hyunsikyang: https://docs.openstack.org/tripleo-docs/latest/install/environments/virtualbmc.html - you might want to look at how TripleO already does this with the vbmc project
11:04:01 lyarwood hyunsikyang: https://github.com/openstack/virtualbmc
11:08:51 hyunsikyang I knew it. vBMC which is based on KVM is now working for openstack instance. so, we also make a code for it too.
11:16:42 hyunsikyang lyarwood: I knew it. vBMC which is based on KVM is now working for openstack instance. so, we also make a code for it too.
11:21:56 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Escalate UUID validation warning to error in test https://review.openstack.org/540386
11:22:55 lyarwood hyunsikyang: I don't follow, doesn't Ironic provide what you need?
11:26:48 hyunsikyang lyarwood: YES. Ironic used VM Which is based on KVM.
11:27:26 hyunsikyang lyarwood: I want to use openstack instance as a baremetal.
11:27:44 lyarwood hyunsikyang: then just use vbmc to provide the ipmi layer to Ironic?
11:27:58 lyarwood hyunsikyang: nova is never going to directly support ipmi or pxe
11:31:36 hyunsikyang lyarwood: i can't understand what is the meaning of 'then just use vbmc to provide the ipmi layer to Ironic?'
11:32:18 hyunsikyang lyarwood: current nova doesn't support ipmi pxe for openstack instance.
11:33:25 lyarwood hyunsikyang: right, Ironic however does, so the stack is QEMU/KVM instance <-> Nova <-> VBMC <-> Ironic
11:34:09 lyarwood hyunsikyang: VBMC just provides an IPMI layer around the traditional Nova virtual instances that Ironic can use.
11:41:15 hyunsikyang lyarwood: vBMC provides IPMI for VM which is based on KVM. you mean that when user send the command to the vBMC, vBMC will forward this command to the openstack instance? i don't think so. we can control VM which is based on KVM. but we can't controll openstack instance.
11:42:05 hyunsikyang lyarwood: I checked code and tested it. but, it didn't work.
11:49:04 lyarwood hyunsikyang: ah wait, my apologies I mixed up vbmc and ovb - https://openstack-virtual-baremetal.readthedocs.io/en/latest/introduction.html
11:49:26 lyarwood hyunsikyang: vbmc talks to libvirt directly
11:50:30 hyunsikyang Yes I knew it. too:)
