Weekly Project Infrastructure team meeting

The OpenDev Team holds public weekly meetings in #opendev-meeting, 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 approval

• Priority Efforts (Standing meeting agenda items. Please expand if you have subtopics.)
  • Update Config Management
    • topic:update-cfg-mgmt
    • Zuul as CD engine
  • OpenDev
    • Gerrit account and group inconsistencies
      • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/gerrit-user-consistency-2021 High level notes.
      • Group problems and 92 accounts with preferred emails missing external ids have been fixed.
      • We have 17 accounts with preferred email addresses that don't have a matching external id
      • We have ~642 accounts with conflicting emails in their external ids. This needs more investigating to better understand the fix for.
      • Need to correct the ~642 external id issues before we can push updates to refs/meta/external-ids with Gerrit online.
      • Workaround is we can stop Gerrit, push to external ids directly, reindex accounts (and groups?), start gerrit, then clear accounts caches (and groups caches?)
      • Next steps
        • Classify users further into situation groups
        • Decide on next steps for users depending on their situation group.
        • Fix the preferred email issue if possible as this can be done with gerrit online
        • Start a refs/meta/external-ids checkout in a shared location and begin committing fixes to it. If we can't push all the fixes as separate commits we can squash them together and then push.
        • Fungi suggests we simply identify the active accounts then retire the rest for simplicity and speed. Clarkb likes this idea.
        • Could really use a second or third set of eyes to review my notes and decisions. Will help ensure that the next steps I've described for specific accounts are good.
    • Configuration tuning
      • Using strong refs for jgit caches
      • Batch user groups and threads
    • Gitea OOMs
      • https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/774023 Rate limiting framework change for haproxy.
      • https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/775051 Dstat stat gathering in our system-config-run jobs to measure relative performance impacts.

• General topics
  • OpenAFS cluster status (clarkb 20210223)
    • Upgrading servers to Bionic then Focal next.
  • Bup and Borg Backups (clarkb 20210223)
    • wiki backup status
    • borg disk consumption workarounds
  • Picking up steam on Puppet -> Ansible rewrites (clarkb 20210223)
    • Enable Xenial -> Bionic/Focal system upgrades
    • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/infra-puppet-conversions-and-xenial-upgrades Start capturing TODO list here
    • Zuul service host updates in progress now.
  • Deploy a new refstack.openstack.org server (kopecmartin 20210223)
    • Ready for testing?
  • Bridge disk space (clarkb 20210223)
