#openstack-nova - 2022-07-19
17:42:54 sean-k-mooney odd im not seeing it where i expect too
17:44:39 sean-k-mooney https://termbin.com/n7bk
17:44:47 sean-k-mooney so its set on the instance
17:44:55 sean-k-mooney but i dont se fqdu anywhere
17:45:36 sean-k-mooney isnte server metadata ment to be discoverabel via the metadtaa api endpoing
17:45:52 sean-k-mooney im expecting to see it somewhere under curl 169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data
17:52:54 sean-k-mooney so that would be a no
17:53:23 sean-k-mooney unless im missing somthing im not sing where we expose the userdata or metadata at that url
17:54:30 dansmith sean-k-mooney: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/c53ec4e48884235566962bc934cbf292ad5b67b8/nova/api/metadata/base.py#L317-L318
17:55:10 dansmith launch_metadata comes from utils.instance_meta() which should be the user's k=v metadata they provided
17:56:45 sean-k-mooney yes and we regeister that fucntion as a path handeler here https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/c53ec4e48884235566962bc934cbf292ad5b67b8/nova/api/metadata/base.py#L221=
17:57:07 sean-k-mooney so with meta_data.json" as the route
17:57:10 sean-k-mooney ill check that
18:00:42 sean-k-mooney so the instance metadta is not part of the ec2 info https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/c53ec4e48884235566962bc934cbf292ad5b67b8/nova/api/metadata/base.py#L235-L303=
18:04:31 sean-k-mooney im not really sure what to say to be honest
18:08:59 sean-k-mooney ok its there
18:09:08 sean-k-mooney not that i can find via curl but
18:09:28 sean-k-mooney cloud-init query -a sees it
18:09:32 sean-k-mooney its in the meta section
18:09:53 sean-k-mooney https://paste.opendev.org/show/bfDEteTetI0rInj8NfBx/
18:11:27 sean-k-mooney line 57-60
18:15:43 sean-k-mooney oh its at http://169.254.169.254/openstack/2012-08-10/meta_data.json
18:16:14 sean-k-mooney curl http://169.254.169.254 does not list the openstack directory
18:16:43 sean-k-mooney so that makes sense without openstack im looking at the ec2 part
18:21:05 sean-k-mooney dansmith: https://termbin.com/cxty that is the metadta we generated for that instnace
18:21:41 dansmith that's what I would expect, yeah,
18:21:53 dansmith so does cloud-init look at that meta['fqdn'] properly?
18:22:02 sean-k-mooney no
18:22:13 sean-k-mooney it could but it does not appear too
18:22:18 sean-k-mooney so the openstack data souce could be updated
18:22:21 dansmith could or should?
18:22:29 sean-k-mooney to make keys under meta have precidence
18:22:38 sean-k-mooney could, im not sure it should or not
18:23:36 sean-k-mooney or well we could implement atht too allow keys to be "un namespaced" i.e. not embeded in the metakey
18:24:00 sean-k-mooney asuming the hostname filed there has precinece over the ec2 version
18:24:01 dansmith we really *really* should avoid nova making any contract about the keys in user metadata
18:24:04 sean-k-mooney which im not sure it does
18:24:18 dansmith if it's something cloud-init looks at, then fine, but we should not be touching that stuff
18:24:30 sean-k-mooney ack
18:25:16 dansmith well, still, it seems to me that hostname should be the short part and we should get domain from some primary network affiliation
18:25:52 sean-k-mooney well i belvie they put fqdns in it sometime in the examples
18:27:10 dansmith so remind me again why the user can't just use an fqdn in the hostname field and we just look the other way?
18:27:59 sean-k-mooney it broke desginate
18:28:01 sean-k-mooney or neutron
18:28:07 sean-k-mooney because we passed that directly too them
18:28:20 sean-k-mooney if the hostname hand a numeric tld
18:28:27 sean-k-mooney so ubuntu-20.04
18:28:34 sean-k-mooney would break neutron
18:28:45 sean-k-mooney because we set the dns_name to that
18:32:19 sean-k-mooney dansmith: https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/instancedata.html#example-output was the example i was refering too
18:33:54 dansmith they do show hostname having an FQDN, even though it's a . internal one
18:34:25 dansmith but it also shows the public real hostnames being more associated with interfaces, which seems more right-er to me
18:34:34 sean-k-mooney yep "public_hostname": "ec2-3-89-187-177.compute-1.amazonaws.com",
18:34:52 sean-k-mooney if you look at v1 the hsotnaem was truncated
18:35:47 sean-k-mooney then the top level "local_hostname": "ip-172-31-81-43", is still truncated
18:36:00 sean-k-mooney but hostname is now "hostname": "ip-172-31-81-43.ec2.internal",
18:36:12 sean-k-mooney and they have per network interface info
18:36:22 sean-k-mooney dansmith: the other spec which we abandoned
18:36:32 sean-k-mooney was adding the per networking interface info
18:36:58 sean-k-mooney since that would allow us to pass all the inform form neutron
18:37:02 sean-k-mooney and just get out of thet way
18:37:08 sean-k-mooney but apprenly cloud init wont use that
18:37:45 sean-k-mooney this is all based on aws by the way
18:37:50 sean-k-mooney the example
18:38:03 sean-k-mooney and they have obviouly changed there mind over time
18:38:10 johnsom dansmith I am 100% on board with allowing fqdn in the hostname field and just pass it to cloud-init to deal with. That would solve the problem a customer was having. If there is an issue with neutron, that should be easily fixable.
18:38:41 dansmith johnsom: agree
18:38:44 sean-k-mooney johnsom: that customer issue is why we are talking about this
18:39:01 johnsom Yeah, I guessed as much
18:39:11 sean-k-mooney we had the option of doing that in wallaby and agreed to add the display name sanatiation
18:39:37 sean-k-mooney we aslo had a mailing list thread on this topic
18:40:09 sean-k-mooney so we cloud just allow fwdns again and strip or pass the domain when talking to neutron
18:40:36 sean-k-mooney our consern with that is we have shipted the normaliasation for 3 releases now
18:40:41 dansmith no
18:40:43 sean-k-mooney so we dont knwo who we will break
18:40:48 dansmith we should not parse the hostname and split out domains
18:41:05 sean-k-mooney dansmith: so neutron should?
18:41:07 dansmith we should take that string, pass it to cloud-init and/or neutron, and fix whatever the problem is on the neutron side that didn't like it sometimes
18:41:16 dansmith sean-k-mooney: neutron is the networking service
18:41:26 johnsom dansmith +1
18:41:36 sean-k-mooney right but we are curently setting the dns_name filed in there api
18:41:44 sean-k-mooney to an fqdn when its defiend to take a hostname
18:42:10 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/50fdbc752a9ca9c31488140ef2997ed59d861a41/releasenotes/notes/instance-hostname-used-to-populate-ports-dns-name-08341ec73dc076c0.yaml
18:42:26 dansmith I really think the right thing is for us to take a hostname and get our domain affiliation from neutron, but if we really really need to be able to take an FQDN via nova, we should be as hands-off about it as possible
18:43:23 sean-k-mooney well right now the hostname filed can only be a hostname if passed driectly
18:43:35 johnsom It is common case that the FQDN in the guest does not match the FQDN on the port in neutron. One is an internal view, the other external.
18:43:36 sean-k-mooney if its not passed we generate it form the dispalyname
18:44:09 sean-k-mooney johnsom: sure but the customer in quetion needs it to be resolvable
18:44:28 sean-k-mooney so what ever gets set need to actully reslove in nutrons dns
