Introduction
Welcome to the Cinder 2023.2 (Bobcat) midcycle summary page!
We conduct 2 midcycles between the OpenStack development cycle (6 months) that acts as a checkpoint for the following:
- Revisiting/following up the topics discussed at PTG
- Discuss topics that were missed during PTG due to author's unavailability or lack of time or any other reason
- Status of work items based on the milestone
There could be more reasons but the above highlighted are the major ones.
For 2023.2 (Bobcat), the Midcycle will happen at:
- R-18: 31st May, 2023 (Wednesday) 1400-1600 UTC
- R-6: 23rd August, 2023 (Wednesday) 1400-1600 UTC
Etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-bobcat-midcycles
Session Two: R-6: 23 August 2023

We held our second mid cycle of the 2023.2 (Bobcat) development Cycle on 23rd August (R-6 week) between 1400-1600 UTC.
We had a good and productive session mainly focusing on the gate issues we have been noticing recently. We also combined it with the festival of XS reviews.
- Discuss about the broken TGT job
- We had a problem while running TGT job on Ubuntu Jammy (22.04) environment
- We decided to discuss about removing the job in 2023.1 PTG
- #action: We will send a mail to the ML asking if anyone is interesting in keeping the TGT job around and maintaining it. If there are no responses, we will remove the job.
- Upstream job issues
- We have seen different kind of failures recently in our upstream CI jobs related to:
- Timeout
- OOM
- Currently proposed solution s to run tempest tests with less concurrency
- Other ways to reduce memory consumption from cinder perspective
- Backup
- Reduce maximum backup concurrency (currently 15 is default)
- Reduce chunk size for backups
- Reduce number of processes for cinder API
- Reduce memory consumption in MySQL
- Backup
- #action: Followup on all the memory enhancements
- We have seen different kind of failures recently in our upstream CI jobs related to:
- Cinder question on the 2024 User Survey
- Discuss about what changes we should be making to our survey questions
- Updating the list of supported backends is a good update
- #action: Brian to update the list of drivers based on support matrix
After that we had a session for Festival of XS reviews where we reviewed os-brick patches for the upcoming release and also discussed other potential import changes. The list of patches is in the etherpad.
