Or some bigger changes on Neutron side are required? e.g. reporting to nova/placement about what PFs are no host or somethig like that 14:44:35 it seems it is only adding informnation to the binding profile 14:45:39 if that would be all to do on our side, then it would be great :) 14:45:40 there is no need to count resource consumption, so placement is not needed 14:46:02 but nova don't need to know how many PFs is still available on host? 14:46:13 how nova will schedule instance to good host? 14:48:41 is this the right nova spec for this? https://review.openstack.org/#/c/626055/ 14:49:10 ahh, you beat me to it 14:49:16 yes, it seems it is 14:50:51 ok, so it looks that nova will somehow handle that :) 14:51:14 yes, looking here, it seems that is the case: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/626055/8/specs/stein/approved/sriov-bond.rst@52 14:51:52 if so, I'm ok with adding such field to port's binding:profile 14:52:46 yes, seems a simple change for us 14:53:08 so I think we can move ahead with it 14:53:49 +1 14:54:50 give me a few min 14:55:00 sure 14:55:44 any thoughts haleyb? 14:56:34 +1 14:56:35 mlavalle: sorry, someone was asking a question here... 14:56:51 no problem haleyb 14:57:11 +1 from me 14:57:26 ok so we can move ahead with this one 14:57:51 since we are close to the top of the hour, I'll use the remaning few minutes to leave a comment in the RFE 14:57:58 THanks for attending 14:58:07 thank you 14:58:10 see you next week, same time, same channel 14:58:10 thx, have a great weekend guys :) 14:58:16 have a great weekend 14:58:25 #endmeeting
