Essential Priorities
====================
CI refactoring and missing test coverage
----------------------------------------
- Standalone CI tests (vsaienk0)
- next patch to be reviewed: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/429770/
- Missing test coverage (all)
- portgroups and attach/detach tempest tests:
https://review.openstack.org/382476
- local boot with partition images: TODO
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1531149
- adoption: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/344975/
- should probably be changed to use standalone tests
Generic boot-from-volume (TheJulia, dtantsur)
---------------------------------------------
- specs and blueprints:
-
http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-specs/specs/approved/volume-connection-information.html
- code: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bug/1526231
-
http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-specs/specs/approved/boot-from-volume-reference-drivers.html
- code: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bug/1559691
- https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/ironic-boot-from-volume
- code:
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bp/ironic-boot-from-volume
- status as of most recent weekly meeting:
- mjturek is working on getting together devstack config updates/script
changes in order to support this configuration No updates
- hshiina uploaded some devstack patches [See etherpad]
- hshiina is looking in Nova side changes and is attempting to obtain
clarity on some of the issues that tenant network separation introduced into
the deployment workflow.
- Patch/note tracking etherpad: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Ironic-BFV
Ironic Patches:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/406290 Wiring in attach/detach
operations
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/413324 iPXE template
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/454243/ - WIP logic changes for
deployment process. Tenant network separation introduced some additional
complexity, quick conceptual feedback requested.
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/214586/ - Volume Connection
Information Rest API Change
Additional patches exist, for python-ironicclient and one for nova.
Links in the patch/note tracking etherpad.
Rolling upgrades and grenade-partial (rloo, jlvillal)
-----------------------------------------------------
- spec approved; code patches:
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bug/1526283
- status as of most recent weekly meeting:
- Based on feedback from vdrok and jlvillal, rloo is rethinking/reworking
the next patch to see if it can be simplified: 'Add version column'
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/412397/
- Testing work: done as per spec, but rloo wants to ask vasyl whether we
can improve. grenade test will do upgrade so we have old API sending requests
to old and/or new conductor, but rloo doesn't think there is anything to
control -which- conductor handles the request, so what if old conductor handles
all the requests?
Reference architecture guide (jroll, dtantsur)
----------------------------------------------
- no updates, dtantsur plans to start working on some text for the
install-guide this week
Python 3.5 compatibility (Nisha, Ankit)
---------------------------------------
- Topic:
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:goal-python35+NOT+project:openstack/governance+NOT+project:openstack/releases
- this include all projects, not only ironic
- please tag all reviews with topic "goal-python35"
- Nisha will be taking over this work
- Status as on May 18.
- Raised a patch in devstack for enabling swift and ironic for python3.5.
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/464932/
- Swift is not completely compatible with python3.5. Getting error while
installing devstack. Raised a bug in swift
https://bugs.launchpad.net/swift/+bug/1691090
- Status as on May29.
Raised a patch in openstack-infra for disabling swift in experimental gate as
swift is still not compatible for py3.5.https://review.openstack.org/467538
other patches for experimental gates are not merging as core reviewers are
asking to add the python3 builder in running gates instead of duplicating them
in project--config project.. https://review.openstack.org/462487,
https://review.openstack.org/462695, https://review.openstack.org/462701 and
https://review.openstack.org/462706
Deploying with Apache and WSGI in CI (vsaienk0)
-----------------------------------------------
- ironic part seems finished (needs double-checking)
- do we have install-guide bits on how to do it?
- inspector is TODO and depends on
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bg/1525218
Driver composition (dtantsur, jroll)
------------------------------------
- spec:
http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-specs/specs/approved/driver-composition-reform.html
- gerrit topic: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+topic:bug/1524745
- status as of 29 May 2017:
- install guide / admin guide docs
- ipmi docs update: https://review.openstack.org/466734
- explaining defaults calculation: https://review.openstack.org/466741
- upgrading to hardware types: TODO
- dev docs: TODO
- new hardware types:
- we need volunteers for SNMP
- rpioso volunteered to do drac
- future of the driver properties API spec:
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/439907/
- dtantsur started a spec on the classic drivers deprecation:
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/464046/
- needs addressing comments
Feature parity between two CLIs (rloo, dtantsur)
------------------------------------------------
- OSC driver-properties spec is work in progress:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/439907/
- we don't have API to show driver properties for dynamic drivers (we show
hardware type + default interfaces):
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1671549. This should not be a blocker
for the missing OSC commands but since this will also need OSC support, it
might have an impact on the OSC commands we eventually decide on. Discussed in
last week's meetup, starting around L137:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/ironic-virtual-meetup
- no update this week
OSC default API version change (dtantsur)

- OSC CLI patch is up, passing unit and functional tests
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/442153/
- needs updating to match the recent spec changes (mostly wording of
the deprecation message)
node tags (zhenguo, vdrok)
--------------------------
- spec:
http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-specs/specs/approved/nodes-tagging.html

Redfish driver (lucasagomes, dtantsur)
--------------------------------------
- topic: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bug/1526477
- status as of May 29th:
- the power actions do not wait for the power state to change, dtantsur
will fix it
- sushy 0.2.0 released with the latest improvements
- we need more people reviewing sushy
- OOB inspection is in progress, but is probably outside of the scope of this
particular topic
Supported power states API (dtantsur)
-------------------------------------
- topic: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bug/1526226
- note: the same topic as for soft power and NMI is used, as it's covered
by the same spec
- status as of May 29th:
- next on review: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/382194/ (needs update)
Available clean steps API (rloo)

http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-specs/specs/5.0/manual-cleaning.html#get-nodes-node-ident-cleaning-steps

most probably won't have time to do this (she changed job to
non-OpenStack-related).
- The first patch is for adding etags for nodes endpoint,
https://review.openstack.org/392213
- everything needs a rebase
- (galyna): Spec has merged:
http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-specs/specs/approved/evolve-etags.html
- (galyna) Patches-POC are up. Demo: https://asciinema.org/a/103604

.........
Until next week,
