Weekly Project Infrastructure team meeting

The OpenDev Team holds public weekly meetings in #opendev-meeting on OFTC, Tuesdays at 1900 UTC. Everyone interested in infrastructure and process surrounding automated testing and deployment is encouraged to attend.

Please feel free to add agenda items (and your IRC nick in parenthesis).

Agenda for next meeting

• Announcements

• Actions from last meeting

• Specs Review

• Topics
  • Zuul-launcher image builds (corvus 20240910)
    • mnasiadka continues to add more images to niz
      • https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/zuul-providers/+/949127/ and child
    • We have new zuul launcher grafana dashboards.
  • Gerrit 3.11 Upgrade Planning (clarkb 20250401)
    • https://www.gerritcodereview.com/3.11.html
    • Please check this for any concerns with the way we use Gerrit.
    • Automated testing is currently testing this generally works for us.
    • Next step is likely to hold a node and manually check the upgrade/downgrade process works as advertised
    • https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/949778 Update Gerrit images to 3.10.6 and 3.11.3
    • https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/882900 Host Gerrit images on quay.io
    • Shutting down Gerrit can race the indexing of new changes. If this happens we can have new changes created that are not indexed leading to multiple changes with the same changeid later. To mitigate this we can/should reindex changes on Gerrit startup.
    • Then put together a plan and schedule a date.
  • Upgrading Old Servers (clarkb 20230627)
    • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-bionic-server-upgrades
    • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-focal-server-upgrades
    • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-server-replacement-sprint
      • wiki.openstack.org: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-mediawiki-upgrade
      • tonyb looking at cacti after wiki
    • On the easy list we've got refstack, mirror-update, eavesdrop, zuul schedulers, and zookeeper servers remaining.
  • Working through our TODO list (clarkb 20250107)
    • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-january-2025-meetup
  • Rotating mailman 3 logs (clarkb 20250325)
    • Some of the mailman3 log files have grown quite large and could stand some rotation
    • https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/948478
  • opendev.org Matrix Homeserver has been Updated by EMS (clarkb 20250520)
    • EMS warned us about this about a week in advance. The updates require that clients do updated authentication methods
    • So far the matrix eavesdrop and gerritbot bots seem to be working
  • OFTC Matrix bridge no longer supporting new users (clarkb 20250520)
    • https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc/issues/1851
    • This means that matrix bridge users don't see messages from newer IRC nicks/users
    • Options:
      • Declare bankruptcy and Matrix needs a Matrix client and IRC needs an IRC client
      • Pay EMS for a bridge. This is apparently billed per active IRC bridge user and could be a large increase on current EMS hosting cost
      • Host our own bridge. https://postmarketos.org/blog/2025/03/31/matrix-bridge-migration/ has useful related info
      • Embrace Matrix and move there. This represents a compromise between those who want IRC and those who want something like Slack/Discord. But for both sides the important functionality/needs seems to be preserved. (IRC users continue to get to use open source tooling with federated servers. Slack/Discord users get a system that runs over HTTPS using clients with modern bells and whistles).

• Open discussion

Upcoming Project Renames

(any additions should mention original->new full names and link to the corresponding project-config rename change in Gerrit) Changes should have their topic set to project-rename.

• Rename example/foo -> example/bar: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/project-config/+/123456
