06:45:15 brinzhang If the network A has more IPv4 subnet, there will be allocated one IP(ipv4).
06:48:46 alex_xu brinzhang: that sounds like a question for neutron, not nova
06:49:55 alex_xu brinzhang: since nova only pass the network to neturon, the neutron done all the logic, that is scope of neutron I think
06:50:51 brinzhang alex_xu: Thanks. I was asked in openstack-neutron channel too.
06:51:02 alex_xu brinzhang: np, cool

13:08:19 maciejjozefczyk hey!
13:08:46 maciejjozefczyk maybe somebody has quick how-to run grenade jobs under my patch?
13:20:06 jaypipes alex_xu: see my latest comment on the PMEM spec... do you think it would be better to just use the block mode translation system for PMEM instead of the PMEM namespace system? After reading (most of) the original PMEM spec from Intel, it seems that the block mode setup is the more generic "I'm just a bunch of GB of block storage" resource class versus the PMEM namespace mode...
13:23:46 cdent jaypipes: I thought the reason for not doing that was because of fragmentation? I haven't, however, read the original spec, so I may have no idea what I'm talking about
13:27:02 jaypipes cdent: well, unless I'm badly mistaken, the difference is kind of like the difference between a bunch of GB of block storage and a filesystem that might go on a partition of said block storage.
13:27:38 jaypipes cdent: one needs to be wiped/cleaned/formatted whereas the other is just the bunch of blocks for storing stuff. it's up to the user to format it how they need.
13:28:44 openstackgerrit Maciej Jozefczyk proposed openstack/nova master: Add fill_virtual_interface_list online_data_migration script https://review.openstack.org/614167
13:28:44 openstackgerrit Maciej Jozefczyk proposed openstack/nova master: Force refresh instance info_cache during heal https://review.openstack.org/591607
13:28:44 cdent it's all a bit bewildering. So often we these things I think "is a vm really what you want for this?"
13:28:45 openstackgerrit Maciej Jozefczyk proposed openstack/nova master: Rename method _gather_port_ids_and_networks to _get_cached_network_info https://review.openstack.org/628175
13:32:45 jaypipes maciejjozefczyk: reviewing your patches now.
13:44:40 jaypipes maciejjozefczyk: I am sincerely sorry. Please see my comment on the bottom patch :(
13:56:49 openstackgerrit Chris Dent proposed openstack/nova master: WIP: Update nova docs front page for placement removal https://review.openstack.org/628183
13:56:49 openstackgerrit Chris Dent proposed openstack/nova master: Remove placement from nova install docs https://review.openstack.org/628184
13:56:50 openstackgerrit Chris Dent proposed openstack/nova master: Remove link to placement configuration from nova config docs https://review.openstack.org/628185
13:56:50 openstackgerrit Chris Dent proposed openstack/nova master: Remove placement from contributor doc https://review.openstack.org/628186
13:57:09 maciejjozefczyk jaypipes: :) easy
13:57:50 maciejjozefczyk I'm thinking now how previous patch failed on this: http://logs.openstack.org/67/614167/9/check/neutron-grenade/105121b/logs/grenade.sh.txt.gz
13:58:40 maciejjozefczyk jaypipes: maybe its related to the mixed context that you found in online_data_migrations script
14:02:37 alex_xu jaypipes: the PMEM namespace is the way suggested by the qemu, it is best performance way.
14:03:27 alex_xu jaypipes: block mode need a driver layer in the kernel, that isn't real direct access. I asked Rui reply on the spec, I think he can answer this better
14:05:46 alex_xu jaypipes: also in the beginning, we take a look at another way, build a pmem aware filesystem on the pmem namespace, but after talk with virtualization guys, they told me that is a way kernel push forward in the before, but there is bug can't be fixed in the kernel, so pmem namespace is only way for now
14:06:44 alex_xu then the dream of no fragmentation is broken
14:12:05 jaypipes alex_xu: ack
14:27:37 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova stable/queens: Exclude build request marker from server listing https://review.openstack.org/626585
14:30:59 rui-zang jaypipes, I just replied in the pmem spec on why "block mode" is not recommended
14:32:32 rui-zang If you still have concerns or I do not express it clearly, I am here :)
14:33:26 alex_xu rui-zang: being here whole night :)
14:33:54 rui-zang alex_xu, ->< only have a battery less than 2 hours
14:41:24 maciejjozefczyk jaypipes: ok, found what's wrong with gates :)
14:48:27 HW-Peter hey
14:48:41 HW-Peter Is there any documentation for setting up a Multi Cell CellsV2 Environment
14:49:16 HW-Peter Were running around 500 nodes per location, and are wanting to create a 2nd cell to help with scale
14:50:06 HW-Peter The amount of cells v1/v2 overlap in current documentation makes it difficult to see if the information presented relates to cells v1 or cellsv2
14:50:12 HW-Peter The amount of cells v1/v2 overlap in current documentation makes it difficult to see if the information presented relates to cellsv1 or cellsv2
14:54:33 mriedem HW-Peter: i'm assuming you've seen https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/user/cells.html and https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/user/cellsv2-layout.html ?
14:54:54 mriedem https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/user/cells.html#adding-a-new-cell-to-an-existing-deployment
14:55:56 mriedem HW-Peter: you setup the new db and mq for the new cell and then create the cell mapping pointing at the new db/mq
14:56:17 mriedem new computes in that cell will be configured to point at that cell mq/db
14:56:29 mriedem and then you run discover_hosts to populate the new cell db with the compute_nodes records
14:57:10 mriedem if you're trying to shard an existing db to a new cell, that is a bit harder
14:57:49 mriedem "The amount of cells v1/v2 overlap in current documentation" - if you can point me at what you're referring to i can see if the docs can be made more clear
14:57:59 mriedem i know the ops guide is way out of date
14:58:35 dansmith We probably should be removing cellsv1 words across the board anyway
15:00:48 mriedem i had reorganized the bug user/cells.html doc at one point to move the cells v1 stuff to the bottom so it's not the first thing you see, but abandoned it
15:00:57 mriedem *big
15:01:11 dansmith ack
15:01:18 dansmith we should just remove it I think
15:01:28 dpawlik mriedem: Hi, I reply you https://review.openstack.org/#/c/628128/ . If you have time please check :)
15:03:03 mriedem dpawlik: replied
15:03:19 mriedem dansmith: yeah, could - if a cells v1 user needs it to upgrade they can get the rocky docs
15:03:42 dpawlik mriedem: how fast. Thanks
15:03:45 dansmith yeah I mean, we're not going to be able to support upgrade forever, so I think just removing the docs about that probably helps to make it clear
15:05:06 mriedem when can we just drop cells v1 again?
15:05:16 mriedem i don't see any specific mention of it in the stein ptg etherpad
15:06:20 mriedem rocky ptg etherpad says we'd drop nova-net before cells v1,
15:06:37 mriedem but stein ptg etherpad says we can't drop nova-net until cells v1 since nova-net only runs if cells v1 is enabled :/
15:06:51 dansmith well, I think we lost steam because (a) removing n-net is hard and (b) cern is still using n-net
15:07:28 dpawlik mriedem: I can listen in my CI job which tox env should be executed, but if I am alone with that problem, we don;'t need to backport the patch.
15:07:33 mriedem surely cern just comments out this line for nova-net: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/cmd/network.py#L43
15:07:57 dansmith mriedem: that's what they're doing, yes.. I mean if we remove it more than that, it'll be an issue
15:08:12 mriedem yeah i know the service itself
15:08:52 mriedem sorrison is on pike now i think he said
15:08:59 mriedem godaddy is... ?
15:09:02 dansmith they were neutron anyway
15:10:07 mriedem yeah just wondering if/when/why we can't remove cells v1
15:13:28 mriedem anywho, we moved the job to experimental queue, maybe next step is dropping docs, and just continue to whittle away at removing it
15:13:37 mriedem make it less discoverable
15:16:16 mriedem guess i can take a shot at https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bug/1804253

15:52:20 ade_lee hi -- has anyone seen this error before? http://logs.openstack.org/20/621920/1/gate/barbican-simple-crypto-devstack-tempest/eb68a52/logs/screen-n-cpu.txt.gz#_Jan_02_18_35_13_498931
15:56:49 HW-Peter Thanks for that
15:57:01 HW-Peter Going to start testing this today
15:59:16 ade_lee HW-Peter, sorry - was that directed to me?
15:59:49 ade_lee mriedem, is the error I posted above related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1808247 ?
15:59:49 openstack Launchpad bug 1808247 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "nova-lvm job failing with ArgsAlreadyParsedError (privsep)" [Medium,Confirmed]

16:15:27 ade_lee mriedem, any workaround/fix for that? Its blocking some gate tests
16:15:46 mriedem ade_lee: no idea,
16:15:56 mriedem it looks like something failing in privsep but i'm not expert on that code,
