14:03:20 <whoami-rajat> hello everyone
14:03:24 <whoami-rajat> good turnout today
14:03:27 <whoami-rajat> let's get started
14:03:31 <whoami-rajat> #topic announcements
14:03:40 <whoami-rajat> first, Cinder midcycle 2
14:04:01 <whoami-rajat> I was planning to conduct midcycle 2 and the suitable date seems to be 23 august which is in 2 weeks
14:04:19 <whoami-rajat> it is 1 week before milestone 3, which is also our feature freeze and client library release date
14:04:35 <whoami-rajat> just wanted to know if it doesn't overlap with any major event
14:04:47 <whoami-rajat> the timings would be 1400-1600 UTC (1 hour overlap with this meeting)
14:06:38 <rosmaita> don't seem to be any major holidays that day
14:07:26 <jayaanand> hi
14:08:00 <whoami-rajat> ok
14:08:13 <whoami-rajat> i will go ahead and send a mail after the meeting
14:08:22 <whoami-rajat> and we can discuss this again next week
14:08:25 <whoami-rajat> moving on
14:08:45 <whoami-rajat> next, Driver features declaration
14:09:09 <whoami-rajat> so this week is the driver feature declaration date, if you have any feature, please register a blueprint for it and i can approve it
14:09:13 <whoami-rajat> #link https://releases.openstack.org/bobcat/schedule.html#b-cinder-driver-features-declaration
14:09:19 <whoami-rajat> #link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-2023.2-bobcat-features
14:09:26 <whoami-rajat> please add your feature to this list as well ^
14:10:36 <whoami-rajat> The blueprint acts as a placeholder for a feature and helps search for features easily in the future (instead of going through bunch of gerrit patches)
14:10:52 <whoami-rajat> also registering a blueprint is a straightforward process
14:10:59 <whoami-rajat> so i think we should continue with it
14:11:44 <whoami-rajat> so please ping me when you have a blueprint registered against your feature and i will approve it
14:12:08 <whoami-rajat> regarding the features
14:12:36 <whoami-rajat> * Add the os-extend_volume_completion volume action
14:12:44 <whoami-rajat> #link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/873557
14:13:12 <whoami-rajat> it's adding a new action for extending NFS volumes that will be called by nova
14:13:39 <whoami-rajat> as of now, it requires reviews
14:13:45 <whoami-rajat> so please take a look at it
14:13:50 <whoami-rajat> * Fujitsu Driver: Add QoS support
14:13:57 <whoami-rajat> #link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/847730
14:14:34 <whoami-rajat> the code looks good here but we are adding a lot of new methods that aren't tested
14:14:40 <whoami-rajat> so I've left a -1 on the patch stating the same
14:14:59 <whoami-rajat> if anyone is here from the Fujitsu team, please take a look at my review comment
14:15:13 <whoami-rajat> last one,
14:15:14 <whoami-rajat> * NetApp ONTAP: Added support to Active/Active mode in NFS driver
14:15:21 <whoami-rajat> #link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/886869
14:16:00 <whoami-rajat> the code and test looks good here, also the CI is passing (i don't think it's testing the A/A feature but there is no regression at least)
14:16:15 <whoami-rajat> I've +2ed this, need another core to take a look to merge
14:17:18 <whoami-rajat> that's all the features we have as of now
14:17:28 <whoami-rajat> if you have a feature that is not in the list, please add it
14:18:26 <whoami-rajat> moving on to the next announcement
14:18:29 <whoami-rajat> Cinder core added to OSC and SDK core
14:18:35 <whoami-rajat> #link https://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2023-August/034608.html
14:18:55 <whoami-rajat> now the cinder core team has +2 rights on OSC and SDK projects
14:19:02 <whoami-rajat> thanks rosmaita for following up on this!
14:19:08 <rosmaita> :D
14:19:55 <whoami-rajat> and I would like to take this opportunity to request reviews on my patches
14:19:58 <whoami-rajat> OSC: https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:cinderclient-sdk-migration
14:20:04 <whoami-rajat> SDK: https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:cinder-sdk-gap
14:21:15 <whoami-rajat> ok moving on
14:21:17 <whoami-rajat> next, Call for Mentors & Projects - Boston University Students
14:21:24 <whoami-rajat> #link https://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2023-August/034665.html
14:21:42 <whoami-rajat> please go through the mail for full details but here is the announcement in short
14:21:43 <whoami-rajat> tl;dr If you are aware about a project that can be done by a group of 5-7 students dedicating 5-8 hours a week (from Sept 5 to Dec 21) , please let Kendall know about it
14:22:05 <whoami-rajat> I was thinking about the work on OSC and SDK? not sure if that qualifies as a project
14:24:02 <whoami-rajat> maybe i can discuss that with Kendall
14:24:08 <whoami-rajat> final announcement
14:24:11 <whoami-rajat> it's more of a reminder
14:24:15 <whoami-rajat> PTG Signup
14:24:21 <whoami-rajat> #link http://ptg2023.openinfra.dev/
14:24:24 <whoami-rajat> Dates: Monday, October 23 to Friday, October 27 2023
14:25:43 <whoami-rajat> that's all the announcements for today
14:25:45 <zaitcev> That URL assumes only one PTG per annum.
14:26:55 <rosmaita> yeah, i think they used a different service for the 2 previous 2023 PTGs
14:27:08 <whoami-rajat> zaitcev, after the PTG, the schedule is updated for the next one, did i miss anything that says it happens once a year?
14:27:38 <whoami-rajat> oh i get it now
14:27:40 <whoami-rajat> ptg2023
14:28:20 <whoami-rajat> yeah it should have been more generic or mention it's the second PTG this year
14:28:29 <whoami-rajat> (actually it's the third PTG if we count vancouver)
14:29:46 <whoami-rajat> we don't have any topics so let's move to open discussion
14:29:49 <whoami-rajat> #open discussion
14:30:13 <rosmaita> has anyone noticed a lot of CI failures lately, or am i just unlucky?
14:30:28 <drencrom> About https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/868485, thanks rosmaita and felipe_rodrigues for your reviews. I've uploaded a new patchset.
14:30:39 <rosmaita> drencrom: great!
14:31:19 <rosmaita> i put up this patch to help with CI failures, but it is failing CI: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder-tempest-plugin/+/890828
14:31:56 <rosmaita> i only modified some of the jobs, maybe I need to do more?
14:32:10 <zaitcev> Do we have any LP bugs about the performance of backup/restore to S3? I started to look into it, but I everything I get on the issue is hearsay and oral complaints at PTG sessions. "Too slow", "unusable". Okay, but...
14:33:09 <rosmaita> zaitcev: i'm not aware of any actual data on that
14:33:44 <whoami-rajat> rosmaita, any specific test that fails or is it random?
14:34:16 <rosmaita> i was seeing OOMs on the cinder-tempest-plugin-lvm-lio-whatever job
14:34:35 <whoami-rajat> zaitcev, i think Christian has brought up these observations but not sure if we have a bug reported for it, would be good to have one though
14:34:56 <rosmaita> and gmann said that he had some success for tempest-slow-py3 by lowering the concurrency
14:35:56 <rosmaita> zaitcev: maybe ask on the mailing-list with [ops] in the subject line?
14:37:05 <eharney> does the job finish in time with a lower concurrency?
14:37:09 <whoami-rajat> rosmaita, ok, i haven't seen any, maybe because I'm not proposing a lot of patches in cinder lately but i will keep that in mind
14:37:37 <eharney> i definitely agree on seeing a lot of CI failures
14:37:57 <rosmaita> eharney: i'm not sure
14:38:30 <rosmaita> we've been running without setting that value, so effectively 6 CPUs for the cinder-tempest-plugin tests
14:41:08 <kgube> I have a question regarding the os-extend_volume_completion feature (https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/873557)
14:41:10 <rosmaita> eharney: you may be right about the time out, this job timed out https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/ceafd6a9ad314dc0ba767c7853fb52bf  (although it's non voting)
14:41:43 <kgube> (oh, sorry, didn't want to interrupt)
14:42:02 <rosmaita> (that's OK, these IRC conversations are always interleaved!)
14:42:14 <kgube> (okay ^^)
14:42:50 <kgube> My question was: would it help reviewers if I try to split it into multiple changes?
14:43:06 <kgube> or would that just be confusing?
14:45:15 <whoami-rajat> for lvm-lio-barbican, i can see few timeouts but a lot of failures https://zuul.openstack.org/builds?job_name=cinder-tempest-plugin-lvm-lio-barbican
14:45:41 <whoami-rajat> in the timeouts it exceeds 3 hours
14:46:14 <whoami-rajat> it usually passes on an average of 1 hour 20 mins so the timeout jobs takes twice the time
14:46:23 <toheeb> I also faced the timeout issue for zuul review on one of my patched.
14:46:31 <rosmaita> kgube: i think size isn't a problem, it's around 500 LOC and about 100 of those are documentation
14:46:41 <whoami-rajat> for the lvm-tgt-barbican, i don't see when it passed the last time https://zuul.openstack.org/builds?job_name=cinder-tempest-plugin-lvm-tgt-barbican&skip=0
14:47:19 <whoami-rajat> toheeb, noted
14:49:35 <kgube> rosmaita: alright, thanks
14:50:53 <tosky> whoami-rajat: I think there was an explanation of the possible issue of the tgt job in the review which disabled it (iirc the new version of ubuntu)
14:51:47 <whoami-rajat> tosky, oh ok, thanks
14:51:57 <whoami-rajat> then we shouldn't probably focus on it's results
14:53:41 <rosmaita> https://opendev.org/openstack/cinder-tempest-plugin/src/branch/master/.zuul.yaml#L11-L13
14:53:57 <rosmaita> guess we should discuss at the midcycle in 2 weeks
14:54:36 <whoami-rajat> yeah that sounds like a good idea
14:54:40 <whoami-rajat> rosmaita++
14:54:47 <whoami-rajat> i will create an etherpad and add this topic
14:57:09 <whoami-rajat> added a topic https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-bobcat-midcycles#L45
14:58:28 <whoami-rajat> we're almost out of time
14:58:36 <whoami-rajat> we don't have any new bugs this week
14:58:43 <rosmaita> \o/
14:58:54 <whoami-rajat> and please take a look at the features and review requests
14:59:02 <whoami-rajat> thanks everyone for attending, see you next week
