I'd like to look at that 13:26:53 <wznoinsk> sfinucan: saw that, I want to test the real devs tho :) 13:27:03 <sfinucan> lbeliveau: see https://paste.fedoraproject.org/442587/54996401 13:27:07 <sfinucan> and eavesdrop logs from yesterday for context 13:27:26 <sfinucan> wznoinsk: Aye, that's fair enough 13:27:39 <sfinucan> could be a good interim measure though. Works for NUMA, right? 13:27:49 <sfinucan> but sorry, I digress 13:28:52 <lbeliveau> wznoinsk: when you try it, what kind of erros are you getting ? 13:30:03 <wznoinsk> nodepool: http://pasteboard.co/ay7KU4myZ.png 13:30:15 <wznoinsk> manual attemps at the same time: http://pasteboard.co/ay8d9Ryoq.png 13:31:05 <lbeliveau> vm is stuck in reboot loop ? 13:32:02 <wznoinsk> just so we're on the same page, this is when trying to get a baremetal server provisioned by ironic using nodepool asking 13:32:30 <wznoinsk> the problem is simple, nodepool tests ssh connection when sshd is still saying 'server is still booting', it needs a proper retry loop 13:32:45 <wznoinsk> I just need to setup the nodepool on my dev env 13:33:13 <lbeliveau> do you see anything unusual in /var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log and /var/log/libvirt/qemu/instance-000000x.log ? 13:33:39 <lbeliveau> ok ... I taught the vm was maybe not coming up 13:33:52 <wznoinsk> it's provision the physical server, not a VM on it 13:34:29 <lbeliveau> ok we'll need help from lennyb and moshele I guess, I don't know much about CI env myself 13:34:36 <wznoinsk> anyways I hope to have better news next week, we aim to get the SRIOV/PCI CIs over by the end of the year (hopefully earlier) 13:34:51 <lbeliveau> cool ! 13:34:57 <lbeliveau> keep us posted 13:35:04 <wznoinsk> lbeliveau: they've tried with containers before, didn't get that working unfortunately that's why I'm trying with baremetal for start 13:35:12 <wznoinsk> will sure do 13:35:14 <lbeliveau> #topic Patches for Subteam Review 13:35:27 <lbeliveau> anybody has patches for review that we're not aware of ? 13:36:05 <sfinucan> none on my end 13:36:37 <lbeliveau> me neither, just need cores to review those that are pending 13:36:41 <lbeliveau> #topic Specs for Review 13:36:54 <lbeliveau> so lots of activity there, a few specs under review 13:37:17 <lbeliveau> anybody wants to say something about specs ? 13:37:35 <lbeliveau> we should plan a discussion at the summit 13:37:47 <sfinucan> lbeliveau: You've seen the two NUMA-PCI specs, yes? 13:38:23 <lbeliveau> yes, I've been commenting on a few recently 13:38:46 <sfinucan> lbeliveau: Then other than that, no, I'm good 13:38:56 <sfinucan> Yes to meeting at the summit tho 13:39:16 <vladikr> lbeliveau, I've also submitted https://review.openstack.org/381370 yesterday 13:40:02 <lbeliveau> vladikr: will have a look 13:40:38 <sfinucan> vladikr: ditto 13:40:46 <vladikr> sfinucan, thanks 13:41:24 <lbeliveau> not sure how this is usually working with cores, maybe we should push for a few of them, not sure we can commit on all of them 13:41:46 <wznoinsk> I have a feeling we're missing some people from the meeting today due to the confusion 13:41:48 <wznoinsk> sry, lost connection 13:42:04 <lbeliveau> yes, next week will be better :) 13:42:16 <lbeliveau> #topic Open discussion 13:42:30 <lbeliveau> anybody needs to bring something on the table ? 13:42:34 <sfinucan> So I just have this bug to point out https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1628301 13:42:35 <openstack> Launchpad bug 1628301 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "SR-IOV not working in Mitaka and Intel X series NIC" [Undecided,Incomplete] 13:42:56 <lbeliveau> ok was not aware of this one, let me check 13:43:03 <sfinucan> mriedem raised it last week. I tried setting up a virtual SR-IOV env but haven't succeeded yet 13:43:07 <sfinucan> lbeliveau: Cool 13:43:38 <lbeliveau> looks like config issues at first sight 13:44:16 <lbeliveau> ok I will comment on it a bit later 13:44:50 <lbeliveau> anything else ? 13:45:10 <sfinucan> not from me 13:45:29 <lbeliveau> thanks guy, we'll talk next week 13:45:34 <lbeliveau> #endmeeting
