17:02:34 <hartsocks> hi folks.
17:02:42 <hartsocks> Who's about?
17:03:01 <garyk> i'm here (may have to leave in the middle)
17:03:09 <arnaud> hi guys
17:03:29 * mdbooth is lurking
17:04:36 <tjones> hi
17:05:32 <tjones> anyone here?
17:05:33 <hartsocks> Well, I'll just start by saying that Wednesday next week is a holiday for many of us, then New Year's. Is there any objection to canceling this meeting until January 8th?
17:05:41 <hartsocks> tjones: pong
17:05:51 <tjones> hartsocks: yo
17:06:45 * hartsocks imagines someone bubbling with rage: what?!? no meeting!?! I *live* for meetings!
17:06:55 <tjones> lol
17:07:07 <arnaud> :)
17:07:12 <hartsocks> I'm taking the silence as there's no objection to taking 2 weeks off of meetings.
17:07:41 <hartsocks> Today's agenda...
17:07:59 <hartsocks> Blueprints, high priority bugs, then open discussion
17:08:06 <hartsocks> #topic blueprints
17:08:36 <hartsocks> if you have a BP to get into icehouse-2 and it's not approved you *might* be in trouble.
17:08:44 <hartsocks> So far, I'm the only one in trouble.
17:09:09 <hartsocks> Here's what I have recorded at the broader team's priorities (based on past discussions)
17:09:26 <hartsocks> #link https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/vmware-image-cache-management
17:09:38 <hartsocks> garyk: that's you
17:10:05 <hartsocks> that's approved and ready.
17:10:39 <garyk> yup. it is in the works. needs a rebase and some refactoring following the generic aging
17:10:48 <garyk> it will be ready for review by friday
17:10:53 <hartsocks> awesome.
17:11:05 <hartsocks> next up...
17:11:09 <hartsocks> #link https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/vmware-vsan-support
17:11:16 <hartsocks> vuil: ping?
17:11:38 <hartsocks> That's approved for i-2 but I don't see code on it yet.
17:12:09 <hartsocks> #link https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/autowsdl-repair
17:12:15 <hartsocks> That's mine. It's not approved.
17:12:20 <arnaud> Vui told me that he will send it in 2 to 3 days
17:12:35 <hartsocks> arnaud: okay cool.
17:13:13 <hartsocks> on my BP, I've edited it quite a bit and I've ditched my first implementation completely. I'm still optimistic I can post something by the end of this week.
17:13:37 <garyk> vui is on PTO
17:13:54 <hartsocks> vui: t'is the season
17:14:01 <garyk> his code is WIP progress at the moment - needs a few test cases (actually the CI is running on the vSan code :))
17:14:24 <garyk> i will be back in a few min ...
17:14:29 <hartsocks> np
17:14:45 <hartsocks> I have one more BP listed for icehouse-2
17:14:50 <hartsocks> #link https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/vmware-datastore-storage-backend
17:14:58 <hartsocks> arnaud: that's yours
17:15:05 <hartsocks> It's approved.
17:15:36 <hartsocks> But I see no 'series goal' marked and no milestone. I just have notes that we wanted this done in i-2.
17:15:41 <arnaud> working on it, need to address several comments
17:16:07 <hartsocks> Could you mark the series goal and milestone? I'm worried if you don't it will be bumped on accident.
17:16:23 <arnaud> ok, doing that now
17:16:34 <smurugesan> There is a new bp from Maithem :- https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/use-driver-usage-stats
17:17:05 * hartsocks still reading
17:17:56 <hartsocks> smurugesan: that's *interesting* it fixes one of my chief complaints about nova-compute design.
17:18:26 <smurugesan> yes, we have been having issues with usage stats, especially disk usage
17:19:09 <hartsocks> smurugesan: we should watch that one and provide a patch for the drivers once it gets further along
17:19:20 <smurugesan> yup
17:19:27 <hartsocks> #action follow up on https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/use-driver-usage-stats
17:19:36 <smurugesan> I guess no milestones/goals are set on this one.
17:20:09 <hartsocks> sometimes that can mean the BP won't happen anytime soon, other times it's just because someone forgot to say.
17:20:30 <hartsocks> (which is why I nag about setting those)
17:21:03 <hartsocks> I have 2 more BP that this team is looking to get committed in IceHouse.
17:21:16 <hartsocks> #link https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/vmware-datastore-storage-backend
17:21:35 <hartsocks> arnaud: that's you again, and *approved*!
17:21:51 <hartsocks> ah, I see you marked it as i-2.
17:21:58 <arnaud> yes
17:22:00 <hartsocks> That means I made a mistake in my notes.
17:22:21 <garyk> we will also need to open a bp for iso support. i am currently looking into that.
17:22:34 <garyk> that is, booting from an iso.
17:22:55 <hartsocks> Okay, but that won't be until i-3 right?
17:23:43 <arnaud> wait gary, it doesn't work?
17:24:06 <garyk> arnaud: i discovered a few problems this morning :(
17:24:15 <garyk> i have fixed them and am currently writing tests
17:24:22 <arnaud> ok sounds good
17:24:48 <hartsocks> I was surprised to hear ISO boot doesn't work, actually.
17:24:55 <garyk> arnaud: it was too good to be true
17:25:03 <hartsocks> Is that really a BP or is it a bug fix?
17:25:13 <arnaud> yeah...
17:25:21 <garyk> it is a new feature so i guess that is a bp
17:25:26 <hartsocks> okay.
17:25:48 <hartsocks> I just thought it was already there.
17:26:10 <hartsocks> So I'll list ISO support under our i-3 goals once that's posted.
17:26:21 <hartsocks> I have one other BP listed for i-3...
17:26:29 <hartsocks> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/config-validation-script
17:26:52 <garyk> ok. sounds good
17:27:02 <winston-d> wc
17:27:42 <hartsocks> I've had a few emails with Oleg.
17:27:55 <hartsocks> He's making progress on some of the Oslo related parts of this.
17:28:20 <hartsocks> I'll ramp up on it later this week.
17:28:41 <hartsocks> Is there any BP I've missed?
17:29:26 <tjones> i think we have a few more from our meeting yesterday - lets sync offline cause i don't want to hijack the rest of the meeting
17:29:35 <hartsocks> okay.
17:30:05 <hartsocks> But if you want to make icehouse-2 you need to have them status "accepted" or at least called out to a core-reviewer by tomorrow.
17:30:18 <hartsocks> Let's switch to bugs

17:41:03 <hartsocks> okay.
17:41:40 <hartsocks> Are there any bugs we need to put at a higher priority? Anything people have seen that hasn't gotten onto the high priority list?
17:43:13 <hartsocks> I recently triaged the list and assigned priorities.
17:43:34 <hartsocks> There's only one bug I've not been able to look at...
