#openstack-nova - 2023-04-18
16:33:06 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Support rescuing an instance with shares (compute and API part) https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/860288
16:33:06 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Docs about Manila shares API usage https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/871642
16:33:08 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Mounting the shares as part of the initialization process https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/880075
16:38:44 sean-k-mooney bauzas: we missed talking about the release note for hyperv and vmawre experimental/deprecated status
16:38:54 sean-k-mooney or more speicifclly backporting that to antelope
16:39:05 bauzas shit
16:39:18 bauzas my brain derailed
16:39:49 sean-k-mooney so i would obviosly like to do both (merge on master and backport)
16:40:00 sean-k-mooney so that the warning goes out early
16:40:15 sean-k-mooney and then wait and see what happens with os-win before doing anythin else
16:41:15 sean-k-mooney if the TC retrie os-win in bobcat then we can look at remvoing the supprot in 2024.1
16:42:09 bauzas sean-k-mooney: my only concern is that the relnotes for 27.0.0 won't see it
16:42:10 sean-k-mooney as long as its not breaking any ci jobs and we have sent the warning i dont think thre is any pressure on us to do anything else
16:42:13 bauzas show*
16:42:27 bauzas so operators may miss it
16:42:34 sean-k-mooney we can proably fix that
16:43:09 bauzas well, they would need to upgrade to latest 2023.1 release before they would see the log, hence my point
16:43:10 sean-k-mooney but they shoudl not just be looking at 27.0.0 before going to 29.0.0
16:44:02 sean-k-mooney yep but i dont think we will ahve peopel upgradign for 27.0.0 directly to 29.0.0 without any updates to 27.x.y
16:44:09 dansmith I think backporting a reno to antelope is a good idea to increase our warning interval, but I do not think that buys us more time in terms of how soon we can do something
16:44:14 sean-k-mooney its a concern but i think its a minor one
16:44:15 dansmith because people may deploy a .0 and never update
16:44:37 sean-k-mooney maybe
16:44:46 dansmith meaning I don't think we can reasonably deprecate in 2023.2 and remove it in 2024.1
16:44:48 sean-k-mooney but i think CVEs ectra would force an update
16:44:59 dansmith nobody is forced to update
16:45:24 sean-k-mooney ya what sucks is we agree do deprecate in antelope and we just forgot to merge the patch
16:45:31 dansmith IMHO, this is the extra work we take on by committing to the longer support envelope
16:45:31 sean-k-mooney because it was not assocated with any bug or blueprint
16:45:42 bauzas sean-k-mooney: we had quite the same situation in newton
16:45:45 dansmith yeah, sucks, but.. we just can't rewrite history
16:45:49 bauzas without that cadence
16:46:00 bauzas but we forgot something that merged post-rc1
16:46:15 bauzas and I still remember the shitstorm that happened next
16:46:21 bauzas it's still engraved in me
16:46:26 sean-k-mooney so removal in 2024.2 it is i guess
16:46:43 sean-k-mooney assuming nothign happens btween now and then
16:47:01 bauzas I'd rather prefer to ask rosmaita again and the tc about the reno tooling things
16:47:22 bauzas to see whether we could forward port the deletion notes to B
16:47:30 bauzas brian's proposal was quite ok to me
16:47:45 bauzas but the tooling has to be correctly documented
16:48:01 dansmith that doesn't change anything about the decision, just the mechanics of the notice, to be clear
16:48:27 bauzas yup, that's why I'm still afraid of removing anything in B
16:48:37 bauzas the plan isn't sold yet
16:48:37 dansmith deprecating?
16:48:50 dansmith we can't remove these in B because we didn't warn about it
16:48:58 bauzas removing anything, and by extension deprecating (in this case)
16:49:01 sean-k-mooney ya like if we really wanted to we could just move the 2023.1 git tag so that 27.0.0 has the release note btu that has other problems so i dont really wnat to go there
16:49:16 dansmith no.
16:49:21 sean-k-mooney bauzas: ya not sure where removal is coming form in b
16:49:25 bauzas sean-k-mooney: well, we can't do this or then the distros would hate us
16:49:27 sean-k-mooney that is not what is beign proposed
16:49:37 bauzas sorry, I meant the general case
16:49:40 sean-k-mooney bauzas: hehe i know
16:50:03 sean-k-mooney but if we really wanted to get it in the 27.0.0 release notes im sure that possibel
16:50:29 bauzas I'm saying I'm still quite unhappy with any change proposing to deprecate or remove any thing in B, including in particular the hyperv driver that we speak
16:50:43 sean-k-mooney anyway i think we can likely move forward with the patch and waith for it to go out in 2024.1
16:51:01 sean-k-mooney then see whtat the state is for 2024.2 and if its still functioanl at that point or not
16:51:31 bauzas dansmith: I haven't read the tc agenda for today, but do you think they will discuss the slurp things we discussed before the PTG ?
16:51:32 sean-k-mooney bauzas: i find it very unreasoonble to disallow deprecateion or removals in B
16:52:04 bauzas sean-k-mooney: my PTG concern is still legit, we haven't still a solid plan on forward-porting the notes to C
16:52:04 sean-k-mooney but i agree that we can only remove thing in B if they were deprecated in A or older
16:52:12 dansmith bauzas: neither have I so I dunno
16:53:02 sean-k-mooney sure but i dont think we should block the removal of deprecated fucntionalty on resolvign it
16:54:38 dansmith tbh, I'm not getting the problem here
16:54:52 dansmith we should backport a reno to 2023.1 about the deprecation,
16:55:14 dansmith we should have another one in 2024.1 for such a large thing
16:55:30 dansmith we should have a deprecation log message in 2023.1, 2023.2, 2024.1
16:55:40 dansmith I think bauzas' concern is about remembering to do the extra reno in 2024.1, right?
16:55:41 sean-k-mooney yes bauzas and i swtiched topic slightly to talke about deprecation/removals in B in general
16:55:50 bauzas dansmith: correct
16:55:50 sean-k-mooney yes
16:55:57 bauzas dansmith: your plan looks good then
16:56:26 bauzas provided we don't forget to mention the deprecation in 2024.1
16:56:32 dansmith sean-k-mooney: well, you seemed to go back to the specific with the "block removing on resolving"
16:56:43 sean-k-mooney well in 2024 we would be annouching that we intend to remvoe it effectivly
16:56:49 sean-k-mooney if that what we decied at that point
16:57:00 sean-k-mooney were as right now we are just saying its untested
16:57:13 bauzas sean-k-mooney: dansmith: I apologize, I mixed two problems
16:57:14 dansmith bauzas: to be honest, the removal of it is not that important, IMHO
16:57:21 sean-k-mooney and deprecated but no plan to remove it in any partical release
16:57:22 bauzas don't disagree
16:57:26 bauzas dansmith: ^
16:57:29 dansmith bauzas: saying it's deprecated is a lot more important.. we can remove it when it becomes an _actual_ problem
16:57:35 bauzas true
16:57:46 bauzas ok, looks like we're settled then
16:57:48 dansmith which, if it's been long enough, doesn't matter when we do it
16:57:51 bauzas I can vote
16:59:05 sean-k-mooney anyway i need to go to another meeting now
16:59:25 sean-k-mooney bauzas: as an fyi i plan to submit the patch to remove the AZ filter next week when i have time to write it
16:59:44 bauzas ack
17:00:08 sean-k-mooney it was ment to be done like in xena or yoga. i have a version somewhere but im jsut going to do it from scratch
17:01:58 bauzas sean-k-mooney: you know that by merging this without having a tooling in place, we basically leave myself to be responsible of the release note forward-porting, right? :)
17:02:14 bauzas (just saying this here as well, as a side discussion occurs somewhere else)
17:09:46 bauzas https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/863910 is sent to the gate
17:12:15 dansmith so,
17:12:30 dansmith marking it as experimental back then made more sense than I think it does now
17:12:38 dansmith (I realize I'm +2 on that)
17:13:14 dansmith I think we do need to mark it as actually deprecated to be clean here, because we know it has no maintenance horizon, the dependent library is abandoned and in danger, etc
17:18:18 sean-k-mooney dansmith: we are technially doing both
