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
  • Improving OpenDev's CD throughput (clarkb 20211207)
    • We can run many of our jobs in parallel in all of our CD pipelines. But this requires we properly document/address dependencies
    • We ended up in a weird spot after relying on the per buildset update source job:
      • We weren't syncing updated repo content to bridge but to a single use test node
      • We weren't hard depending on the job so if it didn't run we would run the other jobs without updated sources
      • We weren't adding the update source job to hourly and daily periodic buildsets
    • Next steps happening in https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/820320
  • User management on our systems (clarkb 20211207)
    • Still struggling with matrix-gerritbot. Now openssh on it complains that uid 11000 doesn't exist.
    • Eventually convert mariadb container's from uid 999 to something that makes more sense on the system.
  • Adding a lists.openinfra.dev mailman site (fungi 20211207)
    • Ansible newlist invocations still struggling
    • https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/820397 and parent are a stack to investigate and fix this.
  • keycloak.opendev.org exists now (clarkb 20211207)
    • This can be used to gain more familiarity with the tool to implement our authentication spec.
    • Are we treating this as production ready? Might be good to avoid that for now while we investigate how to apply this to our previous spec?
  • Gerrit User Summit (clarkb 20211207)
    • Gerrit 3.2 is EOL
    • We can integrate with the new Checks UI stuff if we implement a Checks plugin for Zuul.
      • This plugin would run within Gerrit and poll an API on the Zuul side for CI results and render them in a consistent manner.
    • Composable Submit Requirements
      • This is a new system for expressing what is required to merge a change
      • Relies on boolean query language using Gerrit's existing query predicates.
      • Mostly we should be careful to avoid accidentally allowing too much access when this shows up.
    • ChronicleMap libmodule plugin persistent caches
      • This replaces H2 caches for a number of things and gives the caches persistence. Can apparently have a big impact on performance
      • One suggestion was that Gerrit incorporate this by default.

• Open discussion

Upcoming Project Renames
