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
TheJulia will sync-up with the other contributors to this effort
and see about getting the feedback addressed in the patchset.
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 redesigned (conceptually
simpler) the way IronicObject versioning is handled by services running
different releases:
- update to the spec, ready for reviews: 'Rolling upgrades: different
object versions' https://review.openstack.org/#/c/469940/
- next patch ready for reviews, if update is approved: '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 soon(ish)
Python 3.5 compatibility (Nisha, Ankit)

- please tag all reviews with topic "goal-python35"
- 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
- Disabled swift in experimental gate as swift is not yet ported to python3.5.
