The load being put on the OpenStack deployment is just too high. We're working to address this to make the gate more reliable in a number of ways. 1) (merged) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/65760/ The large-ops test was cut back from spawning 100 instances to 50. From the commit message: It turns out the variance in cloud instances is very high, especially when comparing different cloud providers and regions. This test was originally added as a regression test for the nova-network issues with rootwrap. At which time this test wouldn't pass for 30 instances. So 50 is still a valid regression test. 2) (merged) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/45766/ nova-compute is able to do work in parallel very well. nova-conductor can not by default due to the details of our use of eventlet + how we talk to MySQL. The way you allow nova-conductor to do its work in parallel is by running multiple conductor workers. We had not enabled this by default in devstack, so our 4 vCPU test nodes were only using a single conductor worker. They now use 4 conductor workers. 3) (still testing) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/65805/ Right now when tempest runs in the devstack-gate jobs, it runs with concurrency=4 (run 4 tests at once). Unfortunately, it appears that this maxes out the deployment and results in timeouts (usually network related). This patch changes tempest concurrency to 2 instead of 4. The initial results are quite promising. The tests have been passing reliably so far, but we're going to continue to recheck this for a while longer for more data. One very interesting observation on this came from Jim where he said "A quick glance suggests 1.2x -- 1.4x change in runtime." If the deployment were *not* being maxed out, we would expect this change to result in much closer to a 2x runtime increase. 4) (approved, not yet merged) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/65784/ nova-network seems to be the largest bottleneck in terms of performance problems when nova is maxed out on these test nodes. This patch is one quick speedup we can make by not using rootwrap in a few cases where it wasn't necessary. These really add up. 5) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/65989/ This patch isn't a candidate for merging, but was written to test the theory that by updating nova-network to use conductor instead of direct database access, nova-network will be able to do work in parallel better than it does today, just as we have observed with nova-compute. Dan's initial test results from this are **very** promising. Initial testing showed a 20% speedup in runtime and a 33% decrease in CPU consumption by nova-network. Doing this properly will not be quick, but I'm hopeful that we can complete it by the Icehouse release. We will need to convert nova-network to use Nova's object model. Much of this work is starting to catch nova-network up on work that we've been doing in the rest of the tree but have passed on doing for nova-network due to nova-network being in a freeze. 6) (no patch yet) We haven't had time to dive too deep into this yet, but we would also like to revisit our locking usage and how it is affecting nova-network performance. There may be some more significant improvements we can make there. Final notes: I am hopeful that by addressing these performance issues both in Nova's code, as well as by turning down the test load, that we will see a significant increase in gate reliability in the near future. I apologize on behalf of the Nova team for Nova's contribution to gate instability. *Thank you* to everyone who has been helpin

[openstack-dev] [OpenStack-Dev][Cinder] Cinder driver maintainers/contact wiki
Hey Cinder Team! One of the things that's getting increasingly difficult as we grow the number of drivers in the tree and I try to get the driver cert initiative kicked off is rounding up an "expert" for each of the drivers in the tree. I've started a simple wiki page / matrix [1] that is designed to show the driver/vendor name and the contact info for folks that are designated managers of each of those drivers as well as any additional engineering resources that might be available. If you're a Cinder team member, and especially if you're a vendor contributing to Cinder have a look and help flush out the chart. This helps me with a number of things including: 1. Tracking down help when I'm mucking around trying to fix bugs in other peoples drivers 2. Who to contact when somebody on the team needs help understanding specifics about a driver 3. Who to assign work items to when dealing with a driver 4. Who to contact for driver cert submissions 5. Public place for folks that are implementing OpenStack to see what they're getting in for (ie does somebody from company X even participate/support this code any more) Thanks, John [1]: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Cinder/driver-maintainers ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev

[openstack-dev] [infra] javascript templating library choice for status pages
As someone that's done a decent amount of hacking on status.html/status.js, I think we're getting to a level of complexity on our JS status pages that we should probably stop doing this all inline (probably should have stopped a while ago). I'd like to propose that we pick some javascript templating framework, and start incrementally porting bits over there over time. My current thought is - http://handlebarsjs.com/ - mostly because it's only a template library, won't cause us to do a complete rewrite, and we can move it in in parts. Other opinions are welcome. But if we get an ACK on some approach, we can then start phasing it in, vs. the current state of the art which is way too much string append. -Sean -- Sean Dague Samsung Research America s...@dague.net / sean.da...@samsung.com http://dague.net ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
[openstack-dev] [QA] Changes to Tempest run_tests.sh
Hi everyone, I just wanted to bring up some changes that recently merged to tempest. As part of the tempest unit tests blueprint I converted the run_tests.sh script to execute unit tests instead of running tempest itself. This makes the run_tests.sh script consistent with the other projects to run unit tests. To run tempest I added a separate script run_tempest.sh So moving forward people who were running tempest using run_tests.sh should now use the run_tempest.sh script instead. It behaves the same way as run_test.sh did before, so there shouldn't be any change there. -Matt Treinish ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev

Just to be clear, we're not talking about making a subdirectory per panel group; we're talking about making a subdirectory for each panel within that panel group. We've already tested that as a solution and it works, but I guess my question was more about what Horizon standards exist around this, if any. Changing from the following. . . nodes/urls.py - contains IndexView, FreeNodesView, ResourceNodesView . . . to. . . nodes/ | + overview/urls.py - contains IndexView | + free/urls.py - contains FreeNodesView | + resource/urls.py - contains ResourcesNodesView . . . purely for the sake of navigation - seems a bit - ugly? - to me, but if it's acceptable by Horizon standards, then we're fine with it as well :) Mainn > David > > > -Original Message- > > From: Tzu-Mainn Chen [mailto:tzuma...@redhat.com] > > Sent: Saturday, January 11, 2014 12:50 AM > > To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) > > Subject: [openstack-dev] [Horizon][Tuskar] Tuskar-UI navigation > > > > Hey all, > > > > I have a question regarding the development of the tuskar-ui navigation. > > > > So, to give some background: we are currently working off the wireframes > > that Jaromir Coufal has developed: > > > > http://people.redhat.com/~jcoufal/openstack/tripleo/2013-12-03_tripleo- > > ui_02-resources.pdf > > > > In these wireframes, you can see a left-hand navigation for Resources > > (which > > we have since renamed Nodes).

I can try to write up some detailed analysis on a few failures next week to help justify it, but FWIW, when I was looking this last week, I felt like making this change was going to fix a lot more than the nova-network timeout errors. If we can already tell this is going to improve reliability, both when using nova-network and neutron, then I think that should be enough to justify it. Taking longer seems acceptable if that comes with a more acceptable pass rate. Right now I'd like to see us set concurrency=2 while we work on the more difficult performance improvements to both neutron and nova-network, and we can turn it back up later on once we're able to demonstrate that it passes reliably without failures with a root cause of test load being too high. >> 5) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/65989/ >> >> This patch isn't a candidate for merging, but was written to test the >> theory that by updating nova-network to use conductor instead of direct >> database access, nova-network will be able to do work in parallel better >> than it does today, just as we have observed with nova-compute. >> >> Dan's initial test results from this are **very** promising.

Of course.

So, it will never respond to a "reverify" comment.

Whilst this is true, I worry about codifying flakiness in tests (as shown by the gate experience). Instead I'm working on the root causes of the flakiness. I've done some work this week on first order metrics for migration expense (IO ops per migration) instead of second order metrics (wall time), so I am hoping this will help once deployed.

Please note that turbo-hipster currently has -1 voting disabled while we work through these issues. +1 voting is still enabled though.
