Meetings/InfraTeamMeeting

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 inconsistencies
      • All preferred emails lack external ids issues have been corrected. All group loops have been corrected.
      • 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
        • More "dangerous" list has been generated. Should still be safe-ish particularly if we disable the accounts first.
    • Configuration tuning
      • Reduce the number of ssh threads. Possibly create bot/batch user groups and thread counts as part of this.
      • https://groups.google.com/g/repo-discuss/c/BQKxAfXBXuo Upstream conversation with people struggling with similar problems.
    • Update our base job's nodeset
      • https://review.opendev.org/789098

• General topics
  • Picking up steam on Puppet -> Ansible rewrites (clarkb 20210518)
    • Enable Xenial -> Bionic/Focal system upgrades
    • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/infra-puppet-conversions-and-xenial-upgrades Start capturing TODO list here
    • Zuul is done. Mailman next
      • https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/789622
  • Refreshing non LE certs that expire in just under a month (clarkb 20210518)
    • Shutdown/remove: ask.o.o
    • Refresh as yearly cert or try to LE: ethercalc, wiki, translate, storyboard
    • Meeting with foundation to discuss: openstackid and openstackid-dev
  • Cleanup of too small swap setups on newer servers (clarkb 20210518)
    • make_swap.sh was updated to accidentally limit swap size to 8MB when we wanted an 8GB limit
  • Removing registration requirement from our IRC channels (clarkb 20210518)
    • TheJulia asks if we think this is still necessary.
    • Looking at the last month or so of eavesdrop logs it seems we had ~1.5 spam attempts in the unregistered channel
    • https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/project-config/+/791818
  • Block Storage API reference (rosmaita 20210525)
    • https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/block-storage/index.html
    • The Cinder team is removing v2 during Xena. Ordinarily we'd also delete the v2 api-ref as no longer relevant in master (which is true). However, it might be useful for people who have procrastinated moving their scripts, etc., to v3.
    • The api-ref isn't branched, like the regular docs. Is there a way to build and publish the v2 part from stable/wallaby?
  • Scheduling project renames (clarkb 20210518)
    • Our playbook(s) that do renames likely need updating since the last gerrit upgrade.
      • We can test this with our functional testing of gerrit too.

• Open discussion
