I know the PTG is happening this week which might make this a bit tough, but it has been a while since we had a meeting so I want to ensure we get a chance to cover what is happening in OpenDev. We will meet with this agenda on October 28, 2025 at 19:00 UTC in #opendev-meeting: == Agenda for next meeting == * Announcements * Actions from last meeting * Specs Review * Topics ** Gerrit 3.11 Upgrade Planning (clarkb 20250401) *** https://www.gerritcodereview.com/3.11.html *** Please check this for any concerns with the way we use Gerrit. *** Need to hold new test nodes after some Zuul launcher updates cleared out the old ones. *** There is discussion about replication and reindexing bugs in 3.11.4/3.12.1 that don't affect us yet due to being on 3.10. We should try to test these problems to see if they affect us. **** Clarkb tested this with held notes on admittedly trivial test data sets but was unable to reproduce the problems *** Shutting down Gerrit can race the indexing of new changes. If this happens we can have new changes created that are not indexed leading to multiple changes with the same changeid later. To mitigate this we can/should reindex changes on Gerrit startup. *** Gerrit shutdown remain plagued by large h2 cache files. Seems removing our long timeout was not enough to prevent shutdowns timing out. *** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/gerrit-upgrade-3.11 Planning Document for the eventual Upgrade *** Will need to select a date once we know more about the upgrade itself. ** Gerrit Spontaneous Shutdown During Summit (clarkb 20251028) *** The Gerrit server was discovered to be in a shutdown state with no recorded errors *** The Nova team indicates this could happen if the hypervisor is unable to allocate memory. The host would be shutdown and Nova would notice but not record an error *** Its possible the underlying cause is something else; either way we need to work with Vexxhost to identify the source of the problem and mitigate it ** Upgrading Old Servers (clarkb 20230627) *** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-bionic-server-upgrades *** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-focal-server-upgrades *** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-server-replacement-sprint **** wiki.openstack.org: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-mediawiki-upgrade **** tonyb looking at cacti after wiki *** Next on the list are graphite and backup servers *** Can probably spin up new backup servers alongside the old ones then migrate the old volumes off the old servers to the new ones and finally delete the old servers. Just need to double check borg version support matrix details and also what adding new backup servers will do to our cron job setups for backups. *** Remember to use launch-node's --config-drive flag when booting new Noble nodes in Rax Classic ** AFS mirror content cleanup (clarkb 20250916) *** Can we automate cleanups for reprepro content? In other words are the steps cheap enough during the noop case to run with our regular reprepro update script? *** Additional volumes to look into cleanups for include ceph, docker, and puppetlabs package mirrors as well as our python wheel caches *** CentOS 9 Stream grows at a rate that requires regular quota bumps. Is there anything we can do about that? *** With these cleanups and server upgrades completed we can probably start to consider adding new mirrors again. **** Trixie, CentOS 10 Stream, Rocky Linux ? ** Zuul Launcher Updates (clarkb 20250923) *** NODE_FAILURES created by a bug in zuul-launcher **** https://review.opendev.org/c/zuul/zuul/+/964893 is the fix which we should roll out as soon as it has merged ** Moving OpenDev Synchronous Communication to Matrix (clarkb 20250520) *** The spec (954826) has merged. *** clarkb will start working on this as soon as time permits. ** Etherpad 2.5.1 Upgrade (clarkb 20250805) *** https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/blob/v2.5.1/CHANGELOG.md *** There is an even newer 2.5.1 release. We'll need to recycle the test nodes and check if CSS has improved *** Note we shouldn't upgrade until after the PTG as the event relies on etherpad. ** Gitea 1.24.7 Upgrade (clarkb 20251028) *** https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/964899/ Upgrade Gitea to 1.24.7 ** Gitea Performance (clarkb 20251028) *** https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/964728 Don't allow direct backend access **** Some performance issues seem related to crawlers hitting backends directly so they aren't balanced properly **** Most recent issue was via traffic to the load balancer frontend so this won't fix everything **** Means we'll have to take extra steps to test backends directly (ssh port forwards) ** PBR Updates to Handle Setuptools Deprecations (clarkb 20251028) *** Heads up setuptools has an October 31 deadline for no longer relying on easy_install tooling *** https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/pbr/+/964712/ and children aim to address this * Open discussion
