Meetings/Ironic

Weekly Ironic Project Team Meeting

If you're interested in bare metal deployments within OpenStack, please join our weekly discussion about the Ironic project! The one-hour weekly meetings start at 1700 UTC on Mondays, are held in the #openstack-meeting-3 room on irc.freenode.net, and are chaired by Devananda van der Veen (devananda) or Chris Krelle (NobodyCam).

NOTE: Meeting time is UTC based and may need to be adjusted based on local time zone changes, eg. as a result of daylight savings, which changes on different days in different countries.

• ICS (Calendar) file for the meeting. You can add this to your calendar.
• Eavesdrop meeting page

Anyone is welcome to add topics to the agenda. However, topics should be posted at least two (2) days before the meeting, and should include the IRC handle of the proposer and a link to further information. This gives everyone time to review any material ahead of time so we can use the meeting time for actual discussion.

• Example topic: (devananda) Let's talk about zebras. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebra

Next Meeting

The next meeting will be on August 24, 2015 at 1700 UTC (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20150824T1700).

  • Deva is on vacation 8/26 - 9/7, will miss two meetings

• [deva] Summit scheduling and room distribution
  • last time we had 2 fishbowl + 6 boardroom + 2 meetup
  • tokyo has smaller rooms and fewer fishbowls... and more projects!
  • proposal: 4 + 4 + 1
    • we need fishbowls because of these big topics: ironic+neutron, ironic+nova, deployment/packaging/release, drivers
  • add'l proposal: share the meetup room with Infra b/c they are using Bifrost
• [thrash] OpenstackClient plugin commands
  • Currently provisioning state is set via 'openstack baremetal set --provision-state [active|deleted|rebuild|inspect|provide|manage] $NODE'
    • dtantsur suggests it be top-level command (which I concur) 'openstack baremetal [active|delete|rebuild|inspect|provide|manage] $NODE'
  • Maintenance mode makes sense to be part of 'openstack baremetal set' commands, but implementation would be easier and less error-prone if an antonym for maintenance were used as a flag
    • openstack baremetal set --maintenance --reason $REASON $NODE
    • openstack baremetal set --maintenance-antonym $NODE
  • argparse can be used to set them as mutually exclusive and negate the need to check explicitly for maintenance off and !$REASON
• Open Discussion
