I favor the solutions that also enable logs. Thanks, Kevin

However, before the session, it would really be helpful if the folks with proposals got together and/or reviewed each other's proposals, and summarized their findings. I've summarized all of related proposals. (1)Add driver using Socat https://review.openstack.org/#/c/293827/ * Pros: - There is no influence to other components - Don't need to change any other Ironic drivers(like IPMIShellinaboxConsole) - Don't need to bump API microversion/RPC * Cons: - Don't output log file (2)Add driver starting ironic-console-server https://review.openstack.org/#/c/302291/ (There is no spec, yet) * Pros: - There is no influence to other components - Output log file - Don't need to change any other Ironic drivers(like IPMIShellinaboxConsole) - No adding any Ironic services required, only add tools * Cons: - Need to bump API microversion/RPC (3)Add a custom HTTP proxy to Nova https://review.openstack.org/#/c/300582/ * Pros: - Don't need any change to Ironic API * Cons: - Need Nova API changes(bump microversion) - Need Horizon changes - Don't output log file (4)Add Ironic-ipmiproxy server https://review.openstack.org/#/c/296869/ * Pros: - There is no influence to other components - Output log file - IPMIShellinaboxConsole will be also available via Horizon * Cons: - Need IPMIShellinaboxConsole changes? - Need to bump API microversion/RPC If there is any mistake, please give me comment.

However, before the session, it would really be helpful if the folks with proposals got together and/or reviewed each other's proposals, and summarized their findings. You may find after reviewing the proposals, that eg only 2 are really different. Or they several have merit because they are addressing slightly different issues. That would make it easier to present/discuss/decide at the session. --ruby On 12 April 2016 at 09:17, Jim Rollenhagen <j...@jimrollenhagen.com<mailto:j...@jimrollenhagen.com>> wrote: On Tue, Apr 12, 2016 at 02:02:44AM +0800, Zhenguo Niu wrote: > Maybe we can continue the discussion here, as there's no enough time in the > irc meeting :) Someone mentioned this would make a good summit session, as there's a few competing proposals that are all good options. I do welcome discussion here until then, but I'm going to put it on the schedule. :) // jim > > On Fri, Apr 8, 2016 at 1:06 AM, Zhenguo Niu > <niu.zgli...@gmail.com<mailto:niu.zgli...@gmail.com>> wrote: > > > > > Ironic is currently using shellinabox to provide a serial console, but > > it's not compatible > > with nova, so I would like to propose a new console type and a custom HTTP > > proxy [1] > > which validate token and connect to ironic console from nova. > > > > On Horizon side, we should add support for the new console type [2] as > > well, here are some screenshots from my local environment. > > > > > > > > > > > > Additionally, shellinabox console ports management should be improved in > > ironic, instead of manually specified, we should introduce dynamically > > allocation/deallocation [3] mechanism. > > > > Functionality is being implemented in Nova, Horizon and Ironic: > > https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bp/shellinabox-http-proxy > > https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bp/ironic-shellinabox-console > > https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+topic:bug/1526371 > > > > > > PS: to achieve this goal, we can also add a new console driver in ironic > > [4], but I think it doesn't conflict with this, as shellinabox is capable > > to integrate with nova, and we should support all console drivers. > > > > > > [1] https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/shellinabox-http-proxy > > [2] > > https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon/+spec/ironic-shellinabox-console > > [3] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1526371 > > [4] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1553083 > > > > -- > > Best Regards, > > Zhenguo Niu > > > > > > -- > Best Regards, > Zhenguo Niu > __________________________________________________________________________ > OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) > Unsubscribe: > openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe<http://openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe> > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe<http://openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe> http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe<http://openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe> http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
