14:38:50 sean-k-mooney so for your case then loop over the domains and grep all the mdevs

14:38:57 bauzas right
14:38:57 bauzas right
14:39:00 sean-k-mooney then just create them with the hardcoded mdev type and parent

14:39:05 bauzas if you only use one type, that's trivial

14:39:22 bauzas just make sure to recreate the mdev with the right uuid
14:39:22 bauzas just make sure to recreate the mdev with the right uuid
14:39:45 bauzas echo "myuuid" > /sys/bus/mdev_bus/<mdev_type>/create

14:39:53 sean-k-mooney yep that
14:39:53 sean-k-mooney yep that
14:39:57 bauzas (can't remember the exact sysfs path)

14:39:58 mnaser got it, so that's our workaround until something placemet-y lands

14:40:08 sean-k-mooney yep
14:40:11 bauzas yup
14:40:18 bauzas YUUUUUUP even
14:40:18 bauzas YUUUUUUP even
14:40:23 sean-k-mooney :)
14:40:40 sean-k-mooney * sean-k-mooney thinks of the land before time
14:41:27 bauzas mnaser: sorry for the nasty bug, I should have wrote some docs describing the workaround

14:41:43 bauzas I'll at least amend the bug report
14:41:43 bauzas I'll at least amend the bug report
14:42:37 mnaser bauzas: hey no worries at all :D
14:42:37 mnaser bauzas: hey no worries at all :D
14:42:57 mnaser bauzas: i amended an eavesdrop link pointing to our conversation
14:42:57 mnaser bauzas: i amended an eavesdrop link pointing to our conversation
14:43:28 mnaser bauzas: i can throw something in an etherpad about a potential workaround with using single pgpu with single vgpu type

14:43:36 mnaser i need to write up something for my team anyways :)

14:47:52 mnaser working here https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-vgpu-sys-reboot and ill post it as a comment after i run it by y'all :)

14:48:30 openstack Launchpad bug 1900800 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "VGPUs is not recreated on host reboot" [Low,Confirmed] - Assigned to Sylvain Bauza (sylvain-bauza)
14:48:46 mnaser oh heck, even better, ill refernce that :)
14:48:46 mnaser oh heck, even better, ill refernce that :)
14:49:17 bauzas you can even ask libvirt to give you all the domains that have mdevs
14:49:17 bauzas you can even ask libvirt to give you all the domains that have mdevs
14:49:52 bauzas no need to lookup all your instances, just the ones that have mdevs

14:52:22 sean-k-mooney bauzas: can you? i didnt know that
14:52:22 sean-k-mooney bauzas: can you? i didnt know that
14:52:33 bauzas oh, nevermind, call me stupid
14:52:33 bauzas oh, nevermind, call me stupid
14:52:37 sean-k-mooney bauzas: can you do that with virsh?
14:52:37 sean-k-mooney bauzas: can you do that with virsh?
14:52:40 bauzas that's the PCI devices you can get
14:52:40 bauzas that's the PCI devices you can get
14:52:48 bauzas the ones supporting mdev caps

14:53:04 bauzas in nova, I'm just blindly iterating over all instances

14:53:07 bauzas ... :(
14:53:07 bauzas ... :(
14:53:27 sean-k-mooney ya i think that is what you have to do
14:53:27 sean-k-mooney ya i think that is what you have to do
14:53:40 sean-k-mooney im not aware of an api that allows you to fileter domains by the content of there xml

14:59:56 bauzas sean-k-mooney: I guess looking up the instances by their flavors would be then better for mnaser ;)

15:00:06 bauzas using the nova api
15:00:06 bauzas using the nova api
15:00:16 bauzas and then getting the instance name
15:00:16 bauzas and then getting the instance name
15:01:49 sean-k-mooney not really
15:01:49 sean-k-mooney not really
15:01:58 sean-k-mooney that would be much more expensive
15:01:58 sean-k-mooney that would be much more expensive
15:02:32 sean-k-mooney mnaser should now which host has gpus so its really not that hard to loop over the domains on those hosts in a script
15:02:32 sean-k-mooney mnaser should now which host has gpus so its really not that hard to loop over the domains on those hosts in a script
15:03:24 sean-k-mooney doing that will be much faster then hitting keytone to get a tokken then listing the instance on host and filtering by flaovr then looking it up in libvirt to get the mdev

15:15:36 mnaser yeah i think we'll have a bash script because its single pgpu per system so if the libvirt domains werent destroyed yet
15:15:36 mnaser yeah i think we'll have a bash script because its single pgpu per system so if the libvirt domains werent destroyed yet
15:15:40 mnaser it should be easy to rebuild
15:15:40 mnaser it should be easy to rebuild
15:16:19 sean-k-mooney mnaser: a hard reboot might fix your instances that dont have gpus
15:16:19 sean-k-mooney mnaser: a hard reboot might fix your instances that dont have gpus
15:16:28 sean-k-mooney or a cold migrate it that is not enough
15:16:28 sean-k-mooney or a cold migrate it that is not enough
15:16:32 mnaser sean-k-mooney: yeah those are fine but init_host() failing means we have to fix them all first
15:16:32 mnaser sean-k-mooney: yeah those are fine but init_host() failing means we have to fix them all first
15:16:36 mnaser cause nova wont go up
15:16:36 mnaser cause nova wont go up
15:16:48 sean-k-mooney yep i ment for the ones you undifed
