21:54:27 andrewbogott just -- I found references to hosts in the db that didn't appear in 'openstack compute service list'
21:54:57 andrewbogott but I guess since I didn't restart all services after every db change I don't know which bit was causing the problem :(

21:55:44 dansmith well, there might still be an issue with considering deleted records it sounds like, which would be a bug if you want to file it
21:55:44 dansmith well, there might still be an issue with considering deleted records it sounds like, which would be a bug if you want to file it
21:56:13 andrewbogott at the very least there's an issue with <unknown> service still reporting the version of a deleted service, at least until it's restarted
21:56:13 andrewbogott at the very least there's an issue with <unknown> service still reporting the version of a deleted service, at least until it's restarted
21:56:35 dansmith well, do we know if it's deleted or just not being shown in the API?
21:56:35 dansmith well, do we know if it's deleted or just not being shown in the API?
21:56:45 andrewbogott good point, it could be either

21:56:47 dansmith I don't know how the api behaves
21:56:47 dansmith I don't know how the api behaves
21:56:53 andrewbogott I guess I need to figure out if I can reproduce it
21:56:53 andrewbogott I guess I need to figure out if I can reproduce it
21:56:58 dansmith but yes, if it's that, then definitely a bug
21:56:58 dansmith but yes, if it's that, then definitely a bug
21:57:16 andrewbogott dansmith: does that minimum_version_check happen via RPC? I stuck a bunch of debug lines in the version check on my compute node and they were never traversed.

21:57:44 dansmith computes can't talk to the database, so yes

21:57:45 dansmith but other services go straight to the db for it

21:58:45 andrewbogott I don't think I've ever seen @base.remotable_classmethod but I take that to mean 'this happens on a totally different system'
21:58:45 andrewbogott I don't think I've ever seen @base.remotable_classmethod but I take that to mean 'this happens on a totally different system'
21:58:52 andrewbogott or at least can
21:58:53 andrewbogott or at least can
21:59:04 dansmith it does, if coming from compute,
21:59:05 dansmith it does, if coming from compute,
21:59:11 andrewbogott ok
21:59:11 andrewbogott ok
21:59:18 clarkb gmann: ya and it works like 90% of the time
21:59:18 andrewbogott that solves another mystery then
21:59:18 clarkb gmann: ya and it works like 90% of the time
21:59:18 andrewbogott that solves another mystery then
21:59:19 dansmith and yes, you might be right.. you might need to restart conductor which does that on behalf of the compute
21:59:19 dansmith and yes, you might be right.. you might need to restart conductor which does that on behalf of the compute
21:59:38 clarkb gmann: that is why I suspect maybe it has to do with the cache refresh since in theory that only happens if you exceed timeouts or similar
21:59:38 clarkb gmann: that is why I suspect maybe it has to do with the cache refresh since in theory that only happens if you exceed timeouts or similar
21:59:45 dansmith yeah, I hadn't really thought of that, but I guess we'd get conductor's in-memory "cache" of that version
21:59:46 dansmith yeah, I hadn't really thought of that, but I guess we'd get conductor's in-memory "cache" of that version
22:00:12 andrewbogott That seems like the simplest explanation. Not easy to fix though
22:00:12 andrewbogott That seems like the simplest explanation. Not easy to fix though
22:00:20 andrewbogott other than having the 'delete' command print

22:00:23 dansmith well,
22:00:26 andrewbogott "ok now restart your conductor"
22:00:26 andrewbogott "ok now restart your conductor"
22:00:27 dansmith not sure that needs a fix
22:00:27 dansmith not sure that needs a fix
22:00:56 andrewbogott d'you think the conductor would've refreshed its state eventually?
22:00:56 andrewbogott d'you think the conductor would've refreshed its state eventually?
22:01:17 clarkb gmann: fungi mentioned it could possibly be an openstack(client|sdk) regression where it isn't passing that info properly
22:01:17 dansmith no, all the nodes will hold that value in memory until restart, that's kinda the point

22:01:28 dansmith API and scheduler will do the same
22:01:28 dansmith API and scheduler will do the same
22:01:46 dansmith it's just that restarting an api worker will resolve it, whereas computes are dependent on the conductors for it
22:01:46 dansmith it's just that restarting an api worker will resolve it, whereas computes are dependent on the conductors for it
22:03:21 andrewbogott It's really the conductor's job to provide /current/ database state though isn't it?
22:03:21 andrewbogott It's really the conductor's job to provide /current/ database state though isn't it?
22:03:40 andrewbogott Are there reasons why we would want the conductor to not re-read for every query? (Other than performance)
22:03:40 andrewbogott Are there reasons why we would want the conductor to not re-read for every query? (Other than performance)
22:04:16 dansmith yeah, it's expensive, and it also controls conductor's RPC pin, which we don't want to shift at runtime unless you restart or HUP it
22:04:16 dansmith yeah, it's expensive, and it also controls conductor's RPC pin, which we don't want to shift at runtime unless you restart or HUP it
22:05:43 dansmith the conductor also translates things according to the version pin and the versions supported by the compute that is asking for a thing

22:05:47 dansmith it's not just a transparent proxy
22:05:47 dansmith it's not just a transparent proxy
22:06:00 andrewbogott hmmmm
22:06:00 andrewbogott hmmmm
22:06:49 andrewbogott So really it should be pushed -- when a service is deleted it should force some kind of reload (rather than the conductor re-reading the db periodically)

22:06:59 andrewbogott that sounds like a pain to implement for a tiny gain
22:06:59 andrewbogott that sounds like a pain to implement for a tiny gain
22:07:44 dansmith you want to fan-out to every service in the cluster every time a service is deleted just in case some of them need to re-calculate the min version?

22:07:50 dansmith seems like a lot of pain for little gain

22:07:56 dansmith or maybe that's what you meant.

22:08:07 andrewbogott yeah, a lot of pain

22:09:18 andrewbogott So a real bug but not one that's worth fixing
