[openstack-community] Groups Portal Discontinuation
by Ashlee Ferguson 27 Jun '20

27 Jun '20

Hi everyone, I think most of you are aware that we’ve launched a Meetup Pro account <https://www.meetup.com/pro/osf/> so we could take on the cost of Meetup from the local organizers. We currently have 16 official User Groups on the page. As of the third week of April, the groups.openstack.org <http://groups.openstack.org/> portal will be discontinued. We’d like to take this opportunity to start an initiative to move all User Groups <https://groups.openstack.org/groups> over to the Meetup Pro account for a single point of truth. This will increase discoverability for groups, and help us better support community growth. In light of the feedback we’ve received from you all, we’ll encourage groups to have at least 4 meetups per year (one meetup per quarter) going forward as a minimum requirement for being in the Meetup Pro network. However, we realize that circumstances that might prevent you from having meetups happen. In that case, please feel free to reach out directly to me. We really want to work with you all to make sure our community is supported so it can continue growing. User Group 6 Month Trial We’ll be offering a 6 month trial period, where the Foundation will temporarily sponsor groups to be on the Pro account (which costs USD $15/month per group). We’ve previously required groups to have at least 5-6 meetups per year in order to be funded, but If the group has at least 2 independent meetups during this 6 month period, we will continue funding the group to be a part of the official network. If groups fail to host meetups, and do not contact me, the funding will be discontinued and it won’t be visible on the Foundation’s official community network. Next Steps If you are the main organizer of your group, email me (ashlee(a)openstack.org) and I’ll send a link to connect your Meetup account to our Foundation Meetup Pro network. If you don’t have a Meetup account, and you do not wish to use Meetup.com <http://meetup.com/>, please send me the link to your group’s page, or let me know how you coordinate meetups. Thanks so much for your patience as we make this move! Reach out to me if you have any questions. Ashlee Ashlee Ferguson OpenStack Foundation ashlee(a)openstack.org

Re: [openstack-community] [User-committee] UC candidacy.

(Adding community(a)lists.openstack.org mailing list and some Foundation members related with this) Hello Ilya, As announced by [1], https://www.meetup.com/pro/osf/ is now an official group portal. As an UC election official, I discussed with last UC IRC meeting and I got confirmation that the AUC list is retrieved from Meetup Pro [2]. Two more comments: - @Ilya: It seems that Russian user group is not listed in Meetup Pro. If it is, please talk with Ashlee to successfully register your user group to Meetup Pro. - @Ashley @Jimmy: Is it possible to make a redirection of URL: groups.openstack.org to www.meetup.com/pro/osf/ ? With many thanks, /Ian [1] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/community/2019-April/001956.html [2] http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/uc/2019/uc.2019-08-26-15.03.log.htm… Ilya Alekseyev wrote on 8/27/2019 5:34 AM: > Hi Ian! > > Thank you for sharing AUC requirements. > Could you please clarify how currently defining Official OpenStack > User Group? > In the best of my knowledge Groups Portal was retired. > > Thank you in advance. > > Kind regards, > Ilya Alekseyev. > Russian OpenStack Community > > > пн, 26 авг. 2019 г. в 19:52, Ian Y.

[openstack-community] [Openstack][Swift] : Swift file-storage allocation policy
by Sai Vishwas 29 Aug '19

29 Aug '19

Hi all, I have the following questions regarding the file allocation policy in Openstack Swift: 1. Are the uploaded files/objects mapped to partitions solely based on the name by hashing? Is there any way that I could force a particular file to reside on a particular disk? 2. How are the partitions mapped to disks? Is there any way that I could force a particular partition to reside on a particular disk? 3. Are the sizes of all partitions the same? (I am aware that a partition is a virtual concept but I am interested in whether a limit is placed on how many files are assigned to a particular partition ) I am asking the above questions as I have a few files which are accessed very frequently and would like them to reside on one of the SSDs that we have. Does OpenStack Swift internally provide this option? If not how does Swift accommodate for such SLA bound requirements without violating the concept of partitions? It would be of great help if you could explain the internal working of swift with respect to this scenario. Regards, Sai Vishwas Padigi
