| 15:11:34 | sean-k-mooney | there are some other difference too but those are the main ones | |
| 15:12:59 | yoctozepto | frickler: as centos has 5.1 - did you check the qemu cmdline there? | |
| 15:13:05 | frickler | sean-k-mooney: continuing about the qemu on debian discussion: these are instances with the same flavor (256M ram) in ubuntu and debian https://paste.opendev.org/show/809797/ | |
| 15:13:26 | frickler | yoctozepto: didn't hold that job yet, can do tomorrow | |
| 15:13:34 | yoctozepto | frickler: ok | |
| 15:13:56 | yoctozepto | I feel it might be reserving an extra chunk of mem for no reason | |
| 15:14:04 | yoctozepto | as it specifies the size there twice explicitly | |
| 15:14:07 | frickler | sean-k-mooney: the machine types look similar, but the added memory-backend option looks suspicous. but I assume that is added by libvirt, not nova? | |
| 15:15:26 | yoctozepto | << If "-machine memory-backend" is explicitly provided, "-m X" value must match specified backend's size >> | |
| 15:15:44 | yoctozepto | so by those semantics, it's just an unwieldy cmdline parsing assumption | |
| 15:15:48 | frickler | (context: devstack jobs on debian are ooming when tempest runs non-serial, see https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack/+/789083 ) | |
| 15:15:51 | yoctozepto | and should not consume more | |
| 15:16:14 | yoctozepto | but who knows (-: | |
| 15:16:42 | bauzas | reminder, nova meeting in 44 mins here in this channel #openstack-nova | |
| 15:33:48 | sean-k-mooney | frickler: yoctozepto sorry was updating a bug reading back | |
| 15:35:07 | sean-k-mooney | frickler: the macine types are similar but different version pc-i440fx-4.2 vs pc-i440fx-5.2 | |
| 15:37:15 | sean-k-mooney | frickler: yoctozepto regarding sepcifying the memory twice | |
| 15:37:16 | sean-k-mooney | -machine pc-i440fx-5.2,accel=tcg,usb=off,dump-guest-core=off,memory-backend=pc.ram -cpu qemu64 -m 256 -object memory-backend-ram,id=pc.ram,size=268435456 | |
| 15:37:55 | sean-k-mooney | the -m 256 is the old way to specify it and memory-backend=pc.ram -object memory-backend-ram,id=pc.ram,size=268435456 | |
| 15:38:07 | sean-k-mooney | is the new way but you should be able to specify both | |
| 15:38:19 | sean-k-mooney | without it increase the memory allcoation | |
| 15:39:42 | sean-k-mooney | yoctozepto: frickler those commandline should result in the same behavior as far as i can see but this delta is cause by differnt libvirt versions | |
| 15:39:49 | sean-k-mooney | the nova generated xml shoudl be identicaly | |
| 15:40:17 | sean-k-mooney | debian is using libvirt 7.0.0 and ubuntu is using 6.0.0 | |
| 15:46:50 | sean-k-mooney | frickler: do you have the actual job logs so we can compare the nova xmls and ensure they are the same | |
| 15:47:15 | sean-k-mooney | if the xml created by nova is the same in both cases this is a libvirt/qemu bug most likely | |
| 15:59:20 | bauzas | nova meeting starting in 1 min | |
| 16:00:20 | bauzas | #startmeeting nova | |
| 16:00:20 | opendevmeet | Meeting started Tue Oct 5 16:00:20 2021 UTC and is due to finish in 60 minutes. The chair is bauzas. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot. | |

| 16:00:20 | opendevmeet | The meeting name has been set to 'nova' | |
| 16:00:30 | bauzas | howdy folks | |

| 16:01:04 | bauzas | #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/Nova#Agenda_for_next_meeting | |
| 16:01:22 | bauzas | should hopefully be quickier than last week | |
| 16:01:50 | bauzas | let's start, people will come along | |
| 16:01:58 | bauzas | #topic Bugs (stuck/critical) | |
| 16:02:06 | bauzas | One Critical bug | |
| 16:02:19 | bauzas | #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1945983 | |
| 16:02:46 | bauzas | that said, it's triaged incomplete for us and I think the root cause is on devstack | |
| 16:02:57 | sean-k-mooney | o/ | |
| 16:03:04 | bauzas | I voted on lyarwood's change, we're waiting for devstack cores to look at it | |
| 16:03:25 | sean-k-mooney | ah the iscsi issue | |
| 16:03:28 | bauzas | correct | |
| 16:03:39 | gibi | so we can get back the live migration coverage | |
| 16:03:51 | bauzas | yup, that's what I was about to say | |
| 16:03:58 | bauzas | there is a Depends-On this change | |
| 16:04:07 | bauzas | for enabling again the job | |
| 16:04:09 | bauzas | #link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack/+/812391 | |
| 16:04:15 | bauzas | #link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/812392 | |
| 16:04:49 | bauzas | I'm gonna approve the nova change | |
| 16:05:08 | bauzas | but we need the devstack change first | |
| 16:05:23 | bauzas | any questions about this one ? I think most of us covered this one | |
| 16:05:45 | sean-k-mooney | i think it has a bug | |
| 16:05:51 | sean-k-mooney | i dont see where iscsi-iname is set | |
| 16:06:07 | sean-k-mooney | unless that is a command? | |
| 16:06:23 | sean-k-mooney | ah | |
| 16:06:24 | bauzas | I expect this to be a command | |
| 16:06:25 | sean-k-mooney | it is | |
| 16:06:27 | sean-k-mooney | https://linux.die.net/man/8/iscsi-iname | |
| 16:06:31 | sean-k-mooney | ok then it looks fine | |
| 16:06:32 | bauzas | I verified our docs | |
| 16:06:39 | bauzas | and it generates the FQDN and the port | |
| 16:06:46 | sean-k-mooney | yep | |
| 16:06:49 | bauzas | something like example.org:8008 | |
| 16:07:03 | bauzas | ok, moving on then | |
| 16:07:37 | bauzas | #link 13 new untriaged bugs (+0 since the last meeting): #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?search=Search&field.status=New | |
| 16:07:42 | bauzas | we did a few triage | |
| 16:07:48 | bauzas | thanks to the ones who did that | |
| 16:08:07 | bauzas | we still have a backlog and I'll try to see how to reduce it | |
| 16:08:27 | bauzas | more to discuss next week if I can't | |
| 16:08:34 | bauzas | No open bug marked with xena-rc-potential tag #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?field.tag=xena-rc-potential | |
| 16:08:44 | bauzas | actually this one is no longer needed, we're past RC | |
| 16:08:55 | bauzas | #topic Gate status | |
| 16:09:00 | bauzas | Nova gate bugs #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?field.tag=gate-failure | |
| 16:09:22 | bauzas | as we discussed, we're going to enable the live-migration job back | |
| 16:09:28 | bauzas | congrats to lyarwood for his effort | |
| 16:09:34 | bauzas | Placement periodic job status #link https://zuul.openstack.org/builds?project=openstack%2Fplacement&pipeline=periodic-weekly | |
| 16:09:52 | bauzas | placement periodic jobs look fine, nothing to say | |
| 16:10:12 | bauzas | any other point to address about the gate status ? | |
| 16:10:30 | bauzas | most of the wonky issues we had last week were fixed (thanks gmann for tracking it, btw.) | |
| 16:11:14 | bauzas | nothing ? okay, let's continue | |
| 16:11:18 | bauzas | #topic Release Planning | |
| 16:11:34 | bauzas | Release tracking etherpad #link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-xena-rc-potential | |
| 16:11:42 | bauzas | Final release candidates for both Nova and Placement are RC2 | |
| 16:11:49 | bauzas | The new Xena OpenStack release will be on Wednesday (based on our RC2s) | |
| 16:12:05 | bauzas | (or maybe Thursday, I'm unsure about the exact date) | |
| 16:12:29 | bauzas | anything to mention about Xena ? | |
| 16:12:40 | sean-k-mooney | ack is the review to the release repo proposed yet | |
| 16:12:53 | bauzas | we'll do a retrospective at the PTG | |
| 16:13:09 | bauzas | sean-k-mooney: you mean the final tags ? | |
| 16:13:16 | gibi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/812251 | |
| 16:13:37 | bauzas | thanks gibi | |
| 16:13:54 | sean-k-mooney | yes | |
| 16:13:58 | bauzas | I'll look at it tonight | |
| 16:14:59 | bauzas | #topic Review priorities | |

| 16:15:24 | bauzas | I made a few runs over some | |
