15:15:54 sean-k-mooney e.g. if we had jsut defaulted to nova-spec or if it was intentional
15:16:31 melwitt sean-k-mooney: no, I'm not saying there was a decision, I had assumed something like that had occurred because of where the re-parent spec was proposed, but I was wrong
15:19:52 gibi melwitt: queued that up for review
15:20:24 melwitt thank you gibi
15:26:23 opendevreview Pierre Riteau proposed openstack/nova master: Fix typos in minimum version policy docs https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/795575
15:26:24 melwitt masterpe[m]: you need to look at the debug level logs in the placement api logs and the nova-scheduler logs to see details about why no valid host was found
15:28:39 masterpe[m] To solve it for now I enabled a node that was disabled/marked as spare. So I need to enable debug mode to troubleshoot?
15:32:42 melwitt masterpe[m]: to get full detail, yes. what you can do without debug mode is check whether there is a message like "no allocation candidates" in the nova-scheduler log, if you see that, it's likely cpu/ram/disk (as those resources are filtered by placement service)
15:33:42 melwitt if you don't see that, it means one or more of the nova side scheduler filters eliminated all hosts
15:34:11 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/placement master: [DNM]: test consumer_type rollback due to consumer_gen conflict https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/795577
15:36:31 melwitt gibi: oh heh, I had wondered if you saw my latest confusing comment. I was thinking the same thing this morning that it would be best to check what happens with a test. thanks for doing that
15:36:59 gibi melwitt: yeah, you are right the whole PUT /allocations/{uuid} call is not a single transaction
15:37:28 gibi so with the current implementation we can leak a consumer_type update from a rejected call :/
15:39:31 gibi unfortunatly create a test case for a real race is too hard
15:39:43 melwitt gibi: ah, I see your new comment on the review. yeah ok, agree we need something higher up the stack then in order to not leak (or some other better idea yet to be thought of) :( I will work on it
15:40:32 gibi it is hard :/
15:42:25 melwitt yeah, would require faking things with mocks at best. I didn't explore that yet so not sure how messy or possible
15:46:49 spatel sean-k-mooney periodically i am seeing this issue on my nova logs not sure if this is bug or not - http://paste.openstack.org/show/806496/
15:51:45 melwitt spatel: that error means connection to the database failed while trying to write a service record update (heartbeat), not a bug. error being emitted from pymysql client
15:52:41 spatel melwitt today i said terraform to build 20 vm and 4 vm failed and stick in BUILD process, when i check their compute nodes i found that error
15:55:44 melwitt spatel: that paste wouldn't be directly related to a build failure (that paste is a service record update for a service heartbeat) so you'd need to look at which errors are related to the build fail, if any
16:03:13 spatel let me see, may be issue of rabbitmq in that case
16:05:41 melwitt dansmith: someone linked this review in the freenode channel and I thought you might have opinion about it. it's a proposal to allow config of rbd direct snapshot to enable an operator to disallow the fast clone, with the use case being the operator is migrating the backend and the fast clone wouldn't honor the glance backend config (I don't fully understand this part) https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/794837
16:30:53 spatel melwitt also noticed periodically rabbitMQ connection reset error from nova-api - http://paste.openstack.org/show/806498/
16:31:06 spatel is this a normal behavior ?
16:35:44 melwitt spatel: it's not uncommon but it's not desirable. I have seen it many times, related to environmental issues like network disruptions. it's also similar to the DBConnectionError you pasted earlier, that one was about the pymysql client failing to be able to connect to the database, these rabbit errors are showing connection reset or closed trying to connect to rabbitmq
16:37:05 spatel These controller and compute node on same rack
16:37:19 spatel let me restart my whole rabbitMQ cluster
16:38:32 spatel when i delete vm they getting stuck in deleting state
17:14:36 dansmith melwitt: ack, thanks
17:39:55 opendevreview Artom Lifshitz proposed openstack/nova master: docs: Explicitly state lack of support for node renaming https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/795607
17:58:43 artom Huh, looks like the docs gate is broken on nova/crypto.py
17:58:48 artom ^^ somehow failed it
18:03:10 artom Actually, just pep8 in general is broken: https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/0b3b9315c9cb4d489f2ffb1355145a99
18:04:32 artom Ah, it's mypy...
18:16:14 lyarwood artom: the fix for that is in the gate
18:16:44 artom lyarwood, oh. And here I was filing a bug and writing a fix.
18:16:44 lyarwood https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/795533
18:17:41 lyarwood Always enjoyable when that happens ^_^
18:18:23 artom I mean, no mailing list message, no bug filed, nothing :P
18:18:57 artom Hrmm, I wonder if my fix could stiff have value
18:21:26 artom I guess not, since we'll need to manually update requirements anyways?
18:21:54 artom I did it by just adding `python -m mypy --install-types` to tools/mypywrap.sh
18:23:31 lyarwood Yeah I think stephenfin tried that earlier
18:23:40 lyarwood but it wasn't enough in the gate for some reason
18:24:12 artom I guess because lower-constraints.txt?
18:42:59 cz3 This is probably a trivial question... I wanted to import Nova modules into interactive Python shell, but I cannot figure out how to load the config from default nova.conf. Is `CONF = nova.conf.CONF` supposed to handle this?
18:43:54 cz3 I wanted to play around with objects module through interactive shell but the lack of loaded config is blocking me
18:45:45 artom cz3, never tried it myself, but looking at the code, yeah, import nova.conf; CONF = nova.conf.CONF should do it
18:49:26 cz3 yeah, that's what I tried... doesn't seem to work. looks like it is still trying to use the defaults. I assume that because it tries to look up things in sqlite instead of mysql that I have in nova.conf
18:51:00 artom Maybe it's not finding the config file, and using the defaults...
18:52:30 artom In fact, if you're importing it via Python (and not via running a Python executable on the command line), I'm not even sure how it finds the config file to use...
18:54:21 artom I *think* you want to do CONF = nova.conf.CONF(project='nova') in such a case...
18:54:29 artom And then it'll look for nova.conf in the "normal" places
18:56:06 cz3 yes, I will poke around the nova.conf.CONF, maybe it needs some additional parameters when it is imported into interactive shell
18:56:29 sean-k-mooney cz3: you need to initalise the conf form the file too
18:56:40 sean-k-mooney if you just import it it will get the default form code
18:57:42 sean-k-mooney we do this https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/config.py#L94-L98
18:57:53 sean-k-mooney where conf is CONF = nova.conf.CONF
19:02:02 sean-k-mooney all the command lets initalise it here https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/d64edd3da2336a5c7c8f69cced45272cbaf638a9/nova/cmd/status.py#L374
19:02:08 sean-k-mooney well liek ^
19:03:24 sean-k-mooney so "import nova.conf; from nova import config; CONF = nova.conf.CONF; config.parse_args(sys.argv)"
19:03:41 sean-k-mooney cz3: if you do that i think it should work
19:04:59 sean-k-mooney although im not sure you need to initalise rpc or configre the db
19:05:21 cz3 in this case I just need the db access
19:06:49 sean-k-mooney which looks like its jsut sqlalchemy_api.configure(CONF)
19:07:26 cz3 sean-k-mooney: config.parse_args did the trick
19:07:31 cz3 thank you!
19:07:31 sean-k-mooney in any case i would use https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/cmd/manage.py as a reference
19:07:43 sean-k-mooney no worries
19:08:03 sean-k-mooney CONF(argv[1:],
19:08:05 sean-k-mooney project='nova',
19:08:07 sean-k-mooney version=version.version_string(),
19:08:09 sean-k-mooney default_config_files=default_config_files)
19:08:11 sean-k-mooney that is likely the bit you really needed
19:08:37 sean-k-mooney that is invokeing the gloabl constuctor for the singelton
19:09:11 cz3 I actually aim to add something to nova-manage and send it over for review, just wanted to test few things beforehand
19:09:35 cz3 I emailed the openstack-discuss list last week about this, it was re: request_specs regeneration
19:09:56 cz3 where I wanted to find a way to sync extra_specs from flavor data into existing instances
19:10:33 sean-k-mooney oh yes i remember
19:10:39 cz3 long time ago I did something like this by directly appending stuff into request_spec json in database, but this time I want to do it the proper way
19:13:20 cz3 I know that flavors are supposed to be immutable etc. but in this case I just want the existing request_specs to reflect the actual reality and not make the scheduler migrate instances where it was not supposed to after underlying flavor was updated with extra_specs
19:15:05 cz3 I will try to add that to nova-manage and send it over to review via gerrit, maybe it will be good enough to get upstreamed
19:15:54 sean-k-mooney the main consurn we woudl have it that such an update can lead to the vm being broken or on an invalid host also
19:16:30 sean-k-mooney on one hand nova manage is admin only and require direct acess to the server hosting the cloud to get the configs
19:16:59 sean-k-mooney but from a downstream product point of view im not sure we would support customer executing this command
19:17:16 sean-k-mooney we may be with the caveat tha that if you break things you fix them
19:17:33 sean-k-mooney its something we would have to think about
19:18:01 cz3 yeah, I do share the concern, I don't want to send something that would end up breaking deployments for other people if used improperly
19:18:35 sean-k-mooney you proably would need to run som of the flavor/image compatiabity checks before doing the update to make it safe
19:18:53 sean-k-mooney our add a --yes-i-really-really-mean-it flag
19:19:14 sean-k-mooney anyway o/ time to go have dinner
19:19:42 cz3 sure
19:20:05 cz3 thanks again!
