| 15:45:44 | stephenfin | Context is that it'll help a student working on openstacksdk patches for adding placement support | |
| 15:46:07 | lyarwood | stephenfin: yup looking | |
| 15:51:01 | sean-k-mooney | stephenfin: gibi lyarwood quick question https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/db/sqlalchemy/models.py#L1483 | |
| 15:51:22 | sean-k-mooney | the dev_type filed in the db is restrited to a lenth of 8 | |
| 15:51:27 | sean-k-mooney | type-vdpa is 9 | |
| 15:51:42 | gibi | /o\ | |
| 15:51:44 | stephenfin | drop type- | |
| 15:51:47 | sean-k-mooney | so shoudl i extend the column or just sotre vdpa | |
| 15:51:56 | stephenfin | it was silly in the first place | |
| 15:52:11 | gibi | OK, that works for me the type prefix seems redundant | |
| 15:52:15 | sean-k-mooney | ya i really doubt it save any space in reality | |
| 15:52:28 | sean-k-mooney | cool ill do that so | |
| 15:52:45 | sean-k-mooney | and ya the prefix is not really useful | |
| 16:15:55 | prometheanfire | sean-k-mooney: yep, thanks :D | |
| 16:16:07 | prometheanfire | stephenfin: meant that for you about the mock thing :D | |

| 18:00:49 | lyarwood | gibi: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/ephemeral-storage-encryption - I've moved this to Deferred, not sure if that's the correct state but I'm punting it to at least X, I'll document why upstream next week once I'm back from PTO. | |

| 18:01:37 | gibi | lyarwood: thanks for that | |
| 18:01:52 | gibi | lyarwood: right now Deferred is OK, I will do the cleanup after FF anyhow | |
| 18:02:07 | lyarwood | gibi: ack cool | |
| 18:20:18 | openstackgerrit | Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Remove short call timeout from func test https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/777447 | |
| 18:20:56 | gibi | lyarwood: a small fix for the func test we talked about ^^ | |
| 19:06:47 | gregwork | can nova flavors be created that have multiple ephemeral disks? | |
| 19:06:59 | gregwork | i know you can nova boot --ephemeral x --ephemeral y | |
| 19:07:35 | gregwork | trying a nova flavor-create --ephemeral x --ephemeral y doesn't respect this via the CLI | |
| 19:13:12 | sean-k-mooney | gregwork: yes and no | |
| 19:13:24 | sean-k-mooney | you can have multiple ephmeral disk | |
| 19:13:36 | sean-k-mooney | i dont think you can spcify that in the flavor | |
| 19:13:52 | sean-k-mooney | i think you specify that durign instance creation | |
| 19:14:21 | sean-k-mooney | there is quite an obsucre way to do this ill see if i can find it but its not commonly used as far as i am aware | |
| 19:15:06 | sean-k-mooney | ok not that obscure | |
| 19:15:08 | sean-k-mooney | ova boot --flavor test-flavor --image cirros --nic net-name=test-network --ephemeral size=1,format=ext4 --ephemeral size=2,format=ext4 test-vm | |
| 19:15:34 | gregwork | so pick whatever flavor and just boot it with whats needed | |
| 19:15:35 | sean-k-mooney | gregwork: but basically the amount of space in the flavor can be subdevied during boot | |
| 19:15:54 | gregwork | oh | |
| 19:15:58 | sean-k-mooney | ya provided you dont excee the amount of space in the flavor its fine | |
| 19:16:14 | gregwork | do the value of "disk" | |
| 19:16:28 | sean-k-mooney | disk is root disk | |
| 19:16:45 | gregwork | yeah so im curious as to what you mean by the space in the flavor | |
| 19:17:06 | sean-k-mooney | therre are 2 storage vaules in the flavor | |
| 19:17:45 | sean-k-mooney | disk and OS-FLV-EXT-DATA:ephemeral | |
| 19:18:22 | sean-k-mooney | https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/?expanded=add-flavor-access-to-tenant-addtenantaccess-action-detail,create-flavor-detail#create-flavor | |
| 19:18:42 | sean-k-mooney | OS-FLV-EXT-DATA:ephemeral is what is used to limit --ephemeral | |
| 19:19:32 | gregwork | i was under the impression that that value is what will be attached as a separate volume to root | |
| 19:19:43 | gregwork | i did not know it could be sub divided | |
| 19:19:57 | sean-k-mooney | gregwork: some things to keep in mind are ephemeral disk are not snapshot so that also means they are not preserved on shelve | |
| 19:20:27 | sean-k-mooney | gregwork: most people dont if you dont pass any args that will be prented as a singel addtional disk to the instance by default | |
| 19:20:50 | gregwork | thats kind of cool | |
| 19:20:56 | sean-k-mooney | but if the flaovr has addtional ephemeral storage you can subdevide it | |
| 19:21:07 | sean-k-mooney | gregwork: the other thing to kep in mind is that resize is undefined | |
| 19:21:28 | sean-k-mooney | or rather resize where the epmeral size changes is undefiend (read broken as hell) | |
| 19:21:57 | sean-k-mooney | so its cool be there be dragons if you try to resize down | |
| 19:22:01 | sean-k-mooney | up might be ok | |
| 19:22:14 | sean-k-mooney | but again very rarely used feature | |
| 19:22:25 | sean-k-mooney | also very old i think it predate cinder | |
| 19:23:35 | gregwork | the situation we are trying to work around is this quick poc we are running needs fast disk and cinder is overloaded. So they are going to stuff some flash in 3 computes dedicated to this project | |
| 19:23:46 | sean-k-mooney | gregwork: if you want to do it with the openstack client you have to manually build the block device mappings dict and use the local volum type to do this | |
| 19:23:47 | gregwork | so we are going to run off the local ephemeral | |
| 19:25:20 | sean-k-mooney | as long as people are awrae fo the limiations, local scratch space is exactly what that flavor value is for | |
| 19:25:35 | gregwork | for sure, its a demo environment | |

| 08:50:44 | nightmare_unreal | Hi , can someone help me with the syntax to pass an empty list (to remove the RP) ? I am taking in reference to "resource provider aggregate set " | |
| 08:59:00 | gibi | nightmare_unreal: remove the RP from where? | |
| 08:59:45 | nightmare_unreal | gibi: placement aggregate | |
| 08:59:56 | nightmare_unreal | we discussed this few days ago | |
| 09:00:24 | nightmare_unreal | and you showed me this syntax : you can do openstack resource provider aggregate set <rp-uuid> --aggregate <agg1> --aggregate <agg2> ... | |
| 09:03:31 | gibi | OK, so you want to remove PRs from the aggregate | |
| 09:07:24 | gibi | nightmare_unreal: if you want to remove an aggregate then do not provide it in the set command | |
| 09:07:41 | gibi | nightmare_unreal: if you want to remove all the aggregates the provided zero --aggregate in the command | |
| 09:07:47 | gibi | example http://paste.openstack.org/show/802990/\ | |
| 09:07:49 | gibi | example http://paste.openstack.org/show/802990/ | |
| 09:08:31 | nightmare_unreal | yes i want to remove PR from the aggregate | |
| 09:08:32 | gibi | nightmare_unreal: so in general resource provider aggregate set overwrites the list of aggregates the RP is in | |
| 09:09:09 | gibi | so if your RP is in two aggregates agg1 and agg2 and you want to remove the PR from agg1 then | |
| 09:09:22 | gibi | aggregate set <RP> --aggregate agg2 | |
| 09:09:35 | gibi | will overwrite the whole aggregate list to only contain agg2 | |
| 09:09:51 | gibi | and therefore remove the RP from agg1 | |
| 09:11:26 | nightmare_unreal | I see :) , to remove all i should use "resource provider aggregate set " and pass empty --aggregate | |
| 09:12:36 | gibi | yepp | |
| 09:12:45 | nightmare_unreal | thanks | |
