Yes. Premise is that you use shared storage.

For migration you don't need shared storage, local storage is
sufficient. The instance will be stopped and afterwards will be moved to
the target system of the migration.

[Openstack] OpenStack Essex packages for openSUSE 12.1 and SLES11 SP2 available

2012-04-06 Thread Christian Berendt
Hello everyone.

First of all: Thank you everyone for the great job you did! We are happy
to be part of this community and looking forward to continue working
with you.

B1 Systems is happy to announce the availability of OpenStack Essex
packages for openSUSE 12.1 and SLES11 SP2 on the Open Build Service of
openSUSE.

You can find the packages in the project
isv:B1-Systems:OpenStack:release:Essex
(https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=isv:B1-Systems:OpenStack:release:Essex).

The dependencies packages to install these packages are located in the
project isv:B1-Systems:OpenStack:release:Essex:requirements
(https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=isv:B1-Systems:OpenStack:release:Essex:requirements).

For more details have a look at http://wiki.openstack.org/Packaging/SUSE.

Please note that it's unfortunately not possible to run OpenStack on
of SLES11 SP2 out of the box at the moment because of several not yet
fixed issues in the delivered python interpreter. Please contact us
using openst...@b1-systems.de to receive patched packages for the python
interpreter usable with SLES11 SP2. SUSE is working on patches and we'll
keep you informed when OpenStack is working on SLES11 SP2 without the
need of patching the Python interpreter.

Soon we will publish an updated version of our technical whitepaper of
OpenStack Essex on of SLES 11 SP2 and openSUSE 12.1 in german
language - which will be available at
http://www.b1-systems.de/openstack. We'll provide an english version of
the document in the future.

If you have any trouble using the packages, if you need further
support or if you're looking for enterprise support for OpenStack please
don't hesitate to contact us at openst...@b1-systems.de.

Regards, Christian.

Images build with http://susestudio.com/ are usable with OpenStack, too.

It's an easy way to build appliances for OpenSUSE and SLES 11 (SUSE
Linux Enterprise Server). You've to register there (for free) using an
OpenID to download or build images, but I think that's not that bad and
that it's still a public site.

As an example I built an OpenSUSE 12.1 (JeOS) image in appr. 2 minutes.

The exception is sponsored by of one of the issues in the python
interpreter delivered by SUSE for SLES11 SP2. I will send you patched
packages by private mail.

The line 859 in nova/utils.py (ident = getattr(t, "ident", hash(t)))
will fail on SLES11 SP2 at the moment.

You can reproduce the bug this way to test if your python interpreter
has the issue.

import threading
t = threading.current_thread()
ident = t.ident
if ident == None:
print "ERROR: ident of current thread is None, ident of threads is

I can also use Glance without the other components, it's also included
in the release cycles.

I would find it more intuitive to have one release cycle for all core
and incubator projects. At the moment only swift has an other release cycle.

Did it have just said, there is no real problem...

I would prefer to use MySQL Cluster:

master-master?

For RabbitMQ there are several ways to setup it:

I think the customer site has to decide which HA setup they want use.

I think it's not possible to do that without any changes to the

We opened a report for this missing feature a long time ago:

Re: [Openstack] [DEVSTACK] officialize it!

2012-02-06 Thread Christian Berendt
Hello together.

> I was wondering if the community could elevate devstack to a
> "official" openstack project, instead of being a "unofficial
> project".

I think devstack.org is already some kind of official project (provided
by Rackspace Cloud Builders).

Where is the benefit of becoming a core project? At the moment I only
see a lot of overhead (release management, downstream distribution,
technical lead, feature frozen zones, ..) without any benefits.

Also it would take a lot of efforts (see [0] for details) to set up a
new core project.

Devstack is an instrument to help and improve the development. I think
a core component must have the opportunity to be used in a productive
environment and should not "only" be used to support the development.

Can you please describe in more detail what are the benefits of
becoming a core project?

An other point is that the official CI systems (and I think everybody
else, too) are using devstack.org and and that the script is doing a
well job.

You're starting two discussions in this mail: Should devstack become a
part of the core and should devstack be rewritten to Python. I think
the discussions should be splitted and I don't see any motivation of
the devstack.org developers to join the discussion of a Python rewrite
at the moment (maybe I'm wrong).

I don't find the definition and requirements of a core project at the
moment, but I'm pretty sure that there exist some documents.

Maybe it makes sense to define some kind of requirements about OpenStack
specific tools used by the official CI, but that's an other discussion.

[Openstack] creating a mailinglist for packaging specific topics?

2012-02-05 Thread Christian Berendt
Hello together.

I think it's a good idea to create a mailinglist for packaging specific
topics. This list here is IMO not the right place for discussions on
such topics, because a lot of people have to read (or at least they
have to filter those mails into /dev/null) them and this will waste a
huge amount of time, which could be spend more useful topics.

The target of this list would be to coordinate the work of packagers of
the different distributions to reach more and (hopefully) identical
quality and to provide packages just in time with new
releases/milestones. Also to have a single point of contact for
upcoming packagers and maybe to provide similar sets of packages (for
example same naming convention, same versions and so on).

Here a few examples I want to discuss in more detail.

  * what is stability in the point of view of a distributor/packager
(the discussion triggered yesterday on the OSDEM on the FOSDEM
2012). I think it's necessary that we have the same point of view
to not have a very different "stability" on different
distributions 

  * is it possible (and how) to share efforts between the packaging for
different distributions (for example I'm pretty sure that it's
possible to create nearly the same SPECs for OpenSUSE/SLES and
FedoraCore/RHEL)

  * is it useful to host all package definitions (SPECs and so on) at a
central place (for example at Github in a project
openstack/packages or somethink like that) so that everybody can
commit to those definitions in an easy and defined way (using
gerrit for reviews..)?

  * should there only be one package set for one distribution or is it
better to have different package sets? (for example at the moment
SUSE and we (B1) are providing packages on the OpenSUSE Build
Service)

I can't remember such a function at the moment, but it's relative simple
to implement such a feature (at least for Linux systems) using cgroups.

Can you please describe your use case. At the moment I can't follow
where I should use the feature. Why should I install nova-compute on a
bare metal system with 32 GByte memory and only use 16 GByte memory?

NOTE: Bitte im Bezug auf OpenStack immer von Instanzen und nicht von VMs
sprechen. So ist der OpenStack Sprech...

Momentan befindet sich dieses Feature in der Vorbereitung, die Flavour
einer Instanz zu aendern und damit automatisch auch RAM, VCPUs und
Storage entsprechend anzupassen. Bislang ist das noch nicht moeglich.

Der bereits von mir erwaehnte Workaround ist die Verwendung von
nova-volume. Man stellt ein zusaetzliches Volume der Instanz zur
Verfuegung und erstellt darauf ein Physical Volume, welches man in die
bestehende Volume Group einbindet. Danach ist es dann moeglich
bestehende Logical Volumes zu vergroessern.

Vom Prinzip her gehoert ein Base Image nie modifiert und vom Prinzip her
gehoeren Nutzdaten auch nicht auf das Base Image.

Warum muss der Kunde ein bestehendes Logical Volume vergroessern? Meiner
Meinung nach ist da beim Design des Base Images schief gelaufen, der
Fall sollte gar nicht auftreten. Die Nutzdaten gehoeren nicht im Klon
des Base Images hinterlegt sondern auf separaten Volumes/Mountpoints
welche _nur_ fuer die Nutzlast da sind. Diese Volumes/Mountpoints werden
eben durch nova-volume zur Verfuegung gestellt.

Hi.


If you think there is value in it, I can spend some cycles to generate a
more ordered "to-review" list using launchpad API (looking up linked
branches/bugs to evaluate each BMP priority).


I think it's a good idea to see the priority of the corresponding bug report.

Also it would be nice to see if it's a propsal for a blueprint or an open bug.

[Openstack] Using useful commit messages while merging code into trunk

2011-02-26 Thread Christian Berendt
Hi.

Sometimes there are very useless commit messages after merging a
propsal into trunk.

Example:

" 748. Did a pull from trunk to be sure I had the latest, then deleted
the test directory. I guess it appeared when I started using venv. Doh.
(detail)"

or my own:

" 747. reverted my changes from
https://code.launchpad.net/~berendt/nova/lp722554/+merge/50579 and
reused the existing db api methods to add the disabled services. Looks
much better now :)

i couldn't figure out how to uncommit and revert my changes in an
already pushed branch, always ending in "ERROR: These branches
have diverged.". So i created a new branch rev2 and a new
proposal... (detail)"

I think the problem is that per default the last commit message in the
branch is used.

We should always set a correct commit message in the merge propsal and
we should don't merge code with useless commit messages.

Bye, Christian.

[Openstack] documentation of flags, introducing of a naming convention for flags

2011-02-21 Thread Christian Berendt
Hi.

At the moment we're using a lot of flags spread all over the code.

a) we should create a useful documentation including all flags

b) we should introduce a naming convention for new flags and we should
rename existing flags

example:

all flags related to default values are starting with "default_", all
flags related to a path are starting with "path_".

Looks like most of the flags have good names at the moment, but I think
we should write it down in the wiki or the developer documentation to
reduce the possibility of bad names in the future.

c) if it's possible we should collect all flags in one file

At the moment the flags are defined in the files where they are used. I
think it would be nice to have on file, for example nova/flags.py,
including all flags used all over the code.

Bye, Christian.
