[openstack-community] User Groups: Balancing new and experienced users
by Tom Fifield 05 Sep '13

05 Sep '13

With the massive growth of OpenStack, so too have our user groups grown. Not just in number, or attendance, but also in their skill at delivering material at varying levels of complexity. With this, I felt it was high time we started a discussion on how best to continue to support those attendees just beginning their OpenStack journey while satisfying the needs of the burgeoning number of more advanced users. In talking with the user group leaders around the world, I've heard many different techniques. From running simultaneous parallel topic streams, alternative monthly sessions, or having a 'n00b' hour prior to the start of the main event. I'm keen to hear your ideas. What do you do to manage the different levels of achievement of those in your community? Do you have content? What would you like to see? Looking forward to your thoughts, Tom

Hi All, I understand we all are working on making OpenStack next release more awesome. At same time as we launched initiative ask.openstack.org to help people answering their common questions. As of now i see we have 223 unanswered questions and out of which 80 : Nova 40: Quantum 24: Glance 22: Cinder 13: Ceilometer 08: Swift Also there might be some with multiple tags. It appears Nova/Quantum/Neutron needs some help. It be really nice if some one us, experts can jump in and help in cleaning them. As not everyone including me/moderators got expertise to answer all the questions. Spread the word among your colleagues/friends/local user group/community which helps us getting more contributor here. Thanks!! -- Atul Jha www.atuljha.com irc(freenode) : koolhead17

Register Now For The Summit in Hong Kong <http://www.openstack.org/summit/openstack-summit-hong-kong-2013Register> <???????????????????? ???????, ???????? <http://openstacksummitnovember2013.eventbrite.com/> Ambassador Program -- Specifics <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/08/ambassador-program-specifics/> Following from the previous post <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/08/ambassador-program/>, we've had a range of people express their support for the program and quite a number already looking for the application form! So, some more details about the Ambassador Program. Ambassadors will be recognised on the OpenStack website for their efforts, and provided with support from foundation staff to conduct their duties. They will also get access to a funding program -- allowing them to request funds for activities of impact in their region. We'd also expect ambassadors to attend the summits, and the Foundation would likely assist if it wasn't possible for them to be there using their own methods. How Heat Orchestrates your OpenStack Resources <http://www.zerobanana.com/archive/2013/08/29#heat-dependencies> One of the great things about orchestration <http://www.zerobanana.com/archive/2013/07/30#openstack-orchestration-introd…> is that it automatically figures out the operations it needs to perform. So whenever you deploy (or modify) your infrastructure you need not write a script to do so; you simply describe the infrastructure you want and the orchestration engine does the rest. Zane Bitter <http://www.zerobanana.com/tags/OpenStack> describes how this works in Heat <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Heat>. Autoscaling with Heat and Ceilometer <http://techs.enovance.com/5991/autoscaling-with-heat-and-ceilometer> Like AWS CloudFormation, Heat allows to create auto scaling stacks. In order to do this, some metrics need to be retrieved from your VM and some actions need to be triggered when a specified event occurs on these metrics. These actions are usually upscaling (create some new VMs) or downscaling (destroy some Vms). Starting with the Havana version (currently trunk), Ceilometer can now trigger actions when something happens to these metrics by creating alarms. The Heat agent inside the VM is no more needed. Taking OpenStack Core discussions to community <http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/08/27/taking-openstack-core-discussions-to-co…> We've been building up to a broad discussion about the OpenStack Core <http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/07/22/kicking-off-core/> and I'd like to invite everyone in the OpenStack community to participate (review latest <http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/08/13/openstack-core-positions/>). Alan Clark (Board Chairman) officially kicked off this open discussion with his post on the OpenStack blog <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/08/addressing-the-topic-of-core-through-…> last week. And we're trying to have face-to-face events for dialog like the Core meetup tonight in San Francisco <http://www.meetup.com/openstack/events/134495312/>. Look for more to come! Of course, this will also be a topic at the summit <https://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/08/voting-is-open-help-choose-who-will-…>. The Board needs to move this forward in the November meeting, so NOW is the time to review and give us input. The OpenStack T-Shirt Design Contest Winner is... <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/08/the-openstack-t-shirt-design-contest-…> Raul Chan's design. Check it out on OpenStack's blog. OpenStack in Production OpenStack Swift & many small files <http://engineering.spilgames.com/openstack-swift-lots-small-files/?utm_sour…> Spil Games has been running Swift for more than two years now, hosting over 400 million files with an average file size of about 50 KB per object. They have a replica count of three so there are*1.2 billion* files to be stored on the object servers. Generally speaking, Swift has turned out to be a solid object storage system. They however run into some performance issues and in a blog post they describe how they analyzed and solved them.

[openstack-community] Online meeting for moderators of Ask OpenStack
by Stefano Maffulli 29 Aug '13

29 Aug '13

hello folks, I and Tom are thinking of organizing an online meeting for moderators of Ask OpenStack. The main intention is to share best practices and in the long term improve the objective of Ask OpenStack: to provide the best place on Internet for people to find solutions (answers) to common problems (questions) related to OpenStack. We would like to go through the existing recommendations on the wiki and do some "live" practice together on existing questions. We're thinking of doing this some time next week. If you're a moderator (have more than 100 karma points), please consider filling in this survey to find a good time for this meeting: http://doodle.com/b7agkwpgk59mdke5 thanks, stef https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Community/AskModerators -- Ask and answer questions on https://ask.openstack.org

Cast your vote for the presentation to be presented at OpenStack Summit, November 5-8, in Hong Kong <http://www.openstack.org/rate/> ???????????????????? ???????, ???????? <http://openstacksummitnovember2013.eventbrite.com/> Introducing the OpenStack Ambassador Program <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/08/ambassador-program/> OpenStack Community Manager Tom Fifield started the discussion on the formation of an OpenStack Ambassador Program, which aims to create a framework of community leaders to sustainably expand the reach of OpenStack around the world. We would like to recognize and further empower these community members to achieve the OpenStack mission, as well as provide more structure and resources to the growing community and user groups. Your feedback would be excellent! For more specifics on the program, and information about becoming an ambassador, stay tuned for the next post. Managing identities in the cloud <http://openstack-in-production.blogspot.com/2013/08/managing-identities-in-…> CERN has 11,000 physicists who use the lab's facilities including the central IT department resources. As with any research environment, there are many students, PhDs and other project members who join one of the experiments at CERN. They need to have computing accounts to access CERN's cloud but we also need to make sure these resources are handled correctly when they are no longer affiliated with the organisation.

[openstack-community] Fwd: quantum-server status is dead
by Krzysztof G 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

Hello, I am trying to deploy openstack on three nodes - (1) controller node, (2) compute node and (3) network node. I am working on CentOS and following this tutorial https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_OpenStack/3/pdf/… Now I am configuring Network Node. Network configuration starts at page 92. Firstly I would like to run quantum-server so I did everything from page 92 to 105. But something is not working. When I do " service quantum-server restart" the result is Stopping quantum: [FAILED] Starting quantum: [ OK ] And it happens all the time, that means that quantum-server works only a short period of time and it comes dead. *When I do* quantum-server --config-file /etc/quantum/quantum.conf --debug --verbose *the logs are as follows* INFO [quantum.service] Quantum service started, listening on 0.0.0.0:9696 2013-08-21 17:50:14 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.raw] SENT[2775e60]: '\x0f\x01\x00\x19\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x04\n\x01\x00\x07\x00\x010\x01\xff\xff\xff\xff\x0f\x01\x00\ x19\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x04\n\x01\x00\x07\x00\x010\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01' 2013-08-21 17:51:13 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.ops] SENT[2775e60]: ConnectionHeartbeat() 2013-08-21 17:51:13 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.raw] SENT[2775e60]: '\x0f\x00\x00\x10\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\n\x00\x00' 2013-08-21 17:51:13 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.raw] READ[2775e60]: '\x0f\x00\x00\x10\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\n\x00\x00' 2013-08-21 17:51:13 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.ops] RCVD[2775e60]: ConnectionHeartbeat() 2013-08-21 17:52:13 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.ops] SENT[2775e60]: ConnectionHeartbeat() 2013-08-21 17:52:13 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.raw] SENT[2775e60]: '\x0f\x00\x00\x10\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\n\x00\x00' 2013-08-21 17:52:13 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.raw] READ[2775e60]: '\x0f\x00\x00\x10\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\n\x00\x00' 2013-08-21 17:52:13 DEBUG [qpid.messaging.io.ops] RCVD[2775e60]: ConnectionHeartbeat() **that means that something is working.

[openstack-community] Pre & Post Summit events in Asia
by Tom Fifield 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

Hi all, I hope you're excited for our upcoming summit in Hong Kong :) One of the ideas that has been floating around is that since we'll have an incredible mass of OpenStack expertise in the area for the summit, why don't we try and arrange some events in Asia before and afterward? This will mean that those multitudes in the region who can't make it to the summit can get exposure to the experts, and that leads to increased contributions and encourages global collaborations. Of course, organising this is going to take some work, and it needs to happen quite soon - as people are booking flight tickets early to get the best deal. What do you think about this idea? Will your group help organise an event? How do you think is the best way to make it work? Regards, Tom
