Hi,

As it was also stated in http://www.stillhq.com/openstack/juno/000012.html, we expect to finish the prerequisites for Scheduler split by Juno. That requires to merge two blueprints, one with the spec validated but patches still under review [1] and one with the spec still subject to debates [2]


During this cycle, we discussed a lot how to update Scheduler with Compute Node stats, and the proposal we made (with a +2 on the spec) was to make use of Extensible Resource Tracker [3] to make that work easily without having to create new DB or Objects fields.

That said, it seems Extensible Resource Tracker (ERT) is still subject to discussions [4], where a revert change has been proposed [5]

I can understand the concerns raised by that, but that's unfortunate that we discuss if ERT is good or not by 1 week before Feature Proposal Freeze, which will happen this Thursday. Indeed, while the changes have been proposed now some weeks ago, it requires to create new patches by 2 days in order to remove ERT as a dependency from the patches. IIUC, removing ERT means, with the concern of scheduler split, to create a new DB compute_node field and a new ComputeNode Object attribute for each resource (aggregate, instance, flavor) related to the host : that will generate more work and while the interface will be quite good (one field for one type), it will have huge payload (one ComputeNode version more, migrations etc.)

In that condition, I can't hardly see how we can reach the target of merging all the bits by Juno. That's why I'm coming back to you, Nova-ists, to know your opinion and what kind of things you would like.


Yeah, I know that's life and life can be hard, but I'm just advocating advices for getting all of your attention.
