Re: [openstack-dev] [oslo_messaging] Limiting the number of retries for kafka driver

[Elancheran Subramanian]

Yes, there is a config option for *oslo_messaging_rabbit* 
default_notification_retry_attempts 
http://docs.openstack.org/mitaka/config-reference/compute/rpc.html


The problem with Nova and Neutron provide the retry mechanism, there is no 
configuration on nova or neutron, which can be passed onto the 
also_messaging. I will add a patch so that it would pick up from the 
configuration in oslo_messaging itself.  

Thanks & Regards,
Cheran

[openstack-dev] [oslo_messaging] Limiting the number of retries for kafka driver

[Elancheran Subramanian]

Hello All,
This is reg limiting the number of retries for Kafka driver support on Nova and 
Neutron.

While trying out the oslo messaging notifications support for Kafka on Nova and 
Neutron, the Kafka driver doesn’t support limiting the number of retries for 
failed messages. When I checked the code, currently there is no configuration 
which support that, though the send_notification has retry 
https://github.com/openstack/oslo.messaging/blob/master/oslo_messaging/_drivers/impl_kafka.py#L336
 but it’s not set or passed from component’s (nova or neutron’s) configuration. 
Is there any configuration which I’m missing? Please let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Cheran

As Josh stated above, currently we have back ported the kafka driver to 
Stable/liberty https://github.com/tsecheran/oslo.messaging/pull/2 to get 
the notifications split work for Nova and Neutron in our cloud. It’s 
working fine and in early POC state, we need to still work on that pifpaf 
PR https://github.com/jd/pifpaf/pull/28 for the unit testing.

Re: [openstack-dev] [QA] Running Tempest tests for a customized cloud

[Elancheran Subramanian]

Hello Punal,
We do support both V2 and V3, that’s just a example I’ve stated BTW. We do have 
our own integration tests which are pretty much covers all our integration 
points with openstack. But we would like to leverage the tempest while doing 
our upstream merge for openstack components in CI.

I believe the tests support the include list, how can I exclude test? Any 
pointer would be a great help.

Thanks,
Cheran

Hi Cheran,

Best practice depends on your test plan and what coverage you. Does your test 
plan covers V3 Identity tests ? If it does and its failing, you should modify 
to make it work for your environment. Fast way to move forward is to exclude 
those tests.

Subject: [openstack-dev] [magnum][horizon] Making a dashboard for Magnum - need 
a vote from the core team

Hey folks,

I think it is critical for self-service needs that we have a Horizon dashboard 
to represent Magnum.  I know the entire Magnum team has no experience in UI 
development, but I have found atleast one volunteer Bradley Jones to tackle the 
work.

I am looking for more volunteers to tackle this high impact effort to bring 
Containers to OpenStack either in the existing Magnum core team or as new 
contributors.   If your interested, please chime in on this thread.

As far as “how to get patches approved”, there are two models we can go with.

Option #1:
We add these UI folks to the magnum-core team and trust them not to +2/+A 
Magnum infrastructure code.  This also preserves us as one team with one 
mission.

Option #2:
We make a new core team magnum-ui-core.  This presents special problems if the 
UI contributor team isn’t large enough to get reviews in.  I suspect Option #2 
will be difficult to execute.

Cores, please vote on Option #1, or Option #2, and Adrian can make a decision 
based upon the results.

Regards
-steve

[openstack-dev] [Horizon] FFE request for Firewall Router insertion BP

[Abishek Subramanian (absubram)]

Dear Horizon community,

I would like to request an FFE for the review we have out currently for
the firewall feature in the project dashboard.

The review is at - https://review.openstack.org/#/c/162552/


This feature is very important for the neutron FWaaS community to move the
firewall feature from out of experimental stage.
It allows for firewalls to finally be applied to a router and having
Horizon support for this will greatly enhance the ability to use FWaaS.
The neutron side of the feature got merged just before the K-3 deadline
and there isn¹t a neutron client dependency on Horizon for this.

A final review version to address comments about UT and also a details
page will be made very shortly.
The review in its current state is ready to test and for anyone to try
out. Please make sure to include the q-fwaas service in your local.conf if
testing.


Requesting Akihiro and David to please sponsor reviews (as discussed on
IRC).

Much thanks and kind regards,

Abishek

[openstack-dev] [horizon] Question about behavior of override_settings

[Abishek Subramanian (absubram)]

Hi,

This has to do with a patch I have out for review currently -
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/90093/

I believe version 5 to be the proper solution for the problem with the
unit tests that I am trying to fix.
However based on some comments that asked me to try a couple things,
version 7 is the latest one out but
I have a couple of questions regarding the behavior I am observing.


1. The diffs change the running of tests in admin/networks/tests.py -
A small snippet is this addition -
@override_settings(OPENSTACK_NEUTRON_NETWORK={'profile_support': None})
def test_network_create_get_with_no_profile(self):
self.test_network_create_get(test_with_profile=False)


This essentially defines a new UT which invokes an existing one but with
different settings.

This same patch for the similar project/networks/tests.py containing the
exact same test however does not work the same way.
It seems that the override_settings somehow finds fault with the
test.create_stubs of the base test.
I put this down to the possibly the definition of the test class itself.

In admin/networks it is - class NetworkTests(test.BaseAdminViewTests):
Whereas in project/networks it is - class NetworkTests(test.TestCase):

Anyone have any idea what the difference is between the two and also
why the BaseAdminViewTests would affect the settings differently?

Also would appreciate any further reviews on this.


Thanks!
Abishek

[openstack-dev] [Horizon][dashboards] Running the 'profile' specific unit tests

[Abishek Subramanian (absubram)]

Hi all, Akihiro,

I wanted to get a little feedback on the issue regarding the running
of the dashboard unit tests with the cisco n1k profiles
(and very soon the cisco DFA profiles) and more specifically
how to have existing network and instance unit tests run both
with and without profiles.

Currently there all tests relating to profiles are turned off
by default. In order to run them, you need to manually go enable
running them by changing the test/settings.py file.

Based on community feedback and review comments from Akihiro, I raised
this bug to fix this issue -
https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon/+bug/1229819
I have an initial WIP review out for it as well that I'd appreciate
feedback on.


There are two kinds of 'profile' related tests. One set is directly
part of the 'router' dashboard. These I have fixed via the review to now
run always by default.
There is another set - in existing network and instance launch unit tests.
The issue with these tests is that the network create and nova server
create 
APIs will need a profile_id argument if and only if the appropriate
neutron plugin is being used.

If not, the neutron APIs will not take a profile_id argument.
Hence, in horizon, the code checks to see if the profile_id should be
given or not. 
Similarly the unit tests mock this same behavior. The dilemma here is how
to run the same unit test and hence the same portion of actual code once
with 
the profiles and once without.

I'd appreciate any suggestions. Please let me know if there are any
further 
questions to clarify this problem.

Regards,
Abishek

Re: [openstack-dev] [Horizon][dashboards] Running the 'profile' specific unit tests

Just to add to this - Akihiro did mention the usage of @override_settings
I've seen examples of this in existing unit tests and I can implement
something 
similar. 

This will mean however that we will have the test with the default setting
and then the same test again with the override which accepts the
profile_id yes?

attribute that I left out which neutron supports.
And so in addition, I also had to add some code to my clean routine and yes
update the string in the create description to include this new option.
I have more test code really, than actual code.

It was small enough, and hence I made request that this be treated as
a bug and not a bp. And only then did I proceed to open the bug.

I will respect what the community decides on this. Please let me know
how we wish to proceed.


Thanks and regards,
Abishek

Re: [openstack-dev] [Horizon] test_launch_instance_post questions

[Abishek Subramanian (absubram)]

Hi all, jpich, amotoki and toshi,

I'm including a link to a small set of diff to show you what I'm trying to
do.
It is obviously a small subset of what I want to do.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/r7khv7gvdcd02gl/launch_instance_post_diff.patch

But to illustrate the issue I am seeing and to help my understanding of
this 
test, all I'm doing is this - I've added a new network in the neutron_data
that is similar to the first network. Then I have replaced the nics
argument 
which is needed to launch an instance. It now takes my new network instead
of
the first network.

However the test fails because when it is run, it is supposed to expect my
new network
but it actually finds the first network in the code.


The problem in code is here -
https://github.com/openstack/horizon/blob/master/openstack_dashboard/dashbo
ards/project/instances/workflows/create_instance.py

Lines 700-705:
netids = context.get('network_id', None)
if netids:
nics = [{net-id: netid, v4-fixed-ip: }
for netid in netids]
else:
nics = None

This part is confusing. In the UT environment, can I please get some help
in understanding how this line

seems to always pick the first network when this particular test is run?


Thanks!

When you click My Dashboard on the left hand side, you will see

If you tried right after creating your profile, try logging out and in.

[openstack-dev] [Horizon] Edit subnet in workflows - ip_version hidden?

[Abishek Subramanian (absubram)]

Hi,

I had a question regarding the
dashboards/project/networks/subnets/workflows.py
file and in particular the portion of the ip_version field.

It is marked as a hidden input field for the update subnet class with this
note.

# NOTE(amotoki): When 'disabled' attribute is set for the ChoiceField
# and ValidationError is raised for POST request, the initial value of
# the ip_version ChoiceField is not set in the re-displayed form
# As a result, 'IPv4' is displayed even when IPv6 is used if
# ValidationError is detected. In addition 'required=True' check
complains
# when re-POST since the value of the ChoiceField is not set.
# Thus now I use HiddenInput for the ip_version ChoiceField as a work
# around.



Can I get a little more context to this please?
I'm not sure I understand why it says this field always is displayed as
IPv4.
Is this still the case? Adding some debug logs I seem to see that the
ipversion is correctly being detected as 4 or 6 as the case may be.

Thanks!

Re: [openstack-dev] [Horizon] Edit subnet in workflows - ip_version hidden?

[Abishek Subramanian (absubram)]

Thanks Radomir.

Yes I've changed it to a readonly. But just wanted to double check
I didn't end up breaking something elsewhere :)

Althouh - how up to date is this code?

These are the actual lines of code -

# NOTE(amotoki): When 'disabled' attribute is set for the ChoiceField
# and ValidationError is raised for POST request, the initial value of
# the ip_version ChoiceField is not set in the re-displayed form
# As a result, 'IPv4' is displayed even when IPv6 is used if
# ValidationError is detected. In addition 'required=True' check
complains
# when re-POST since the value of the ChoiceField is not set.
# Thus now I use HiddenInput for the ip_version ChoiceField as a work
# around.
ip_version = forms.ChoiceField(choices=[(4, 'IPv4'), (6, 'IPv6')],
   #widget=forms.Select(
   #attrs={'disabled': 'disabled'}),
   widget=forms.HiddenInput(),
   label=_(IP Version))




I don't think ip_version even has an attribute or an option to be set to
'disabled'.
Is this from an old version where the create side got fixed but the update
side was forgotten about?

Some browsers (Chrome, iirc) will not submit the values from form fields
that are disabled. That means, that when re-displaying this form
(after an error in any other field, for example), that field's value
will be missing, and the browser will happily display the first option,
which is ipv4.

Another solution could be perhaps using readonly instead of disabled.

This is a blueprint that I am working on since Dec 2013 and as far I
remember it was targetted to icehouse-3. Just today I noticed that it was
moved to future, so should have feel through the cracks for core
reviewers.Is there a chance that this can still make it into icehouse?
Given that the change is fairly isolated in vmdk driver, and that the code
across 4 patches [1] that implement this blueprint has been fairly
reviewed, can I request for an FFE for this one?

[openstack-dev] [Openstack][Horizon] switchable switched classes in forms.py

[Abishek Subramanian (absubram)]

Hi,

I can see that the forms.py file can have parameters/inputs that are of class 
type switchable switched, i.e. this field 'B' will appear on the form if it's 
'switched' based on a choice from a previous field 'A'. Then depending on the 
choice made for 'B', field 'C' will appear on the form.

I want to now find out if the 'choices' for the forms field 'B' can also be 
switched. i.e depending on the choice made in field 'A', the choices that will 
appear for 'B' will change. Is this doable?

 You might be running against local packages then which have a
 different version / output. The proper way to reproduce the Gate
 errors is by using tox.

 in this case tox -e pylint

 Please note that the pylint error is nonvoting, the actual -1 comes
 from the Devstack test run failure.

Hi, Abishek:

Thank you for taking care of Horizon for IPv6 enhancement. So now we have
coverage on both CLI and dashboard side. Very exciting!

W.r.t your questions, these two parameters work independently. In other
words, Horizon should present both options if the interested subnet is
IPv6. For each parameter, the valid values are:
   off
   slacc
   dhcpv6-stateful
   dhcpv6-stateless

The CLI command may look like, for example, something below:

neutron subnet-create --ip-version 6 --ipv6_ra_mode off
--ipv6_address_mode off NETWORK CIDR
neutron subnet-create --ip-version 6 --ipv6_ra_mode off
--ipv6_address_mode dhcpv6-stateful NETWORK CIDR
neutron subnet-create --ip-version 6 --ipv6_ra_mode slaac
--ipv6_address_mode slaac NETWORK CIDR
neutron subnet-create --ip-version 6 --ipv6_ra_mode dhcpv6-stateful
--ipv6_address_mode off NETWORK CIDR
neutron subnet-create --ip-version 6 --ipv6_ra_mode dhcpv6-stateless
--ipv6_address_mode dhcpv6-stateless NETWORK CIDR


The valid combinations are outlined in the PDF file below.

This is regarding the BP -

Is it possible to give me a quick example of the
CLI that you envision?
This is so that the Horizon BP can be updated accordingly.

Once the neutron side of things is ready, when creating a subnet,
and the version is IPv6 will now  enable these two options, yes?
Can both options exist or is it

an either/or combination, i.e. either ipv6_ra or ipv6_address?

Dear Stackers,

I came across a proposed talk related to OpenStack on OpenStack/ OpenStack
as a Service. Couldn't recollect if there were two different talks or the
same. I am interested in learning more - could the speakers ping me offline
please?
