    • DPDK still not installed correctly, however, have been able to merge remaining Gerrit items as they are not dependent on DPDK.  

    • Trevor is still working on the getting DPDK ready.

  • Merged blocked items into stable/gambia

  • Release Items

    • Complete Testing 12/5

    • Updating Milestone 9, Final documentation

    • Gambia 7.0 was 11/2

    • Gambia 7.1

    • For those projects that publish docker images, I have noticed that there are some Gambia jobs missing.

    • X86_64 (from releng/jjb/releng/opnfv-docker.yaml):

    • ·         Barometer

    • ·         Clover

    • ·         NFVBench


    • Basically, you just need to edit the file and change frasier to gambia for your specific artifacts.

  • Collectd Updates

    • Octo has been providing reviews

    • Rubenik as well

  • Election

    • Unless I missed a nomination, Matthias Runge will be the sole candidate.

    • Barometer committers will be able to vote on a Gerrit Issue.

    • Since there is only one candidate.  Simple voting.

    • Assumption is that Matthias will preside over the meeting next week

    • Need to organize a JIRA cleanup with Matthias and go over different aspects.

  • FOSDEM

    • Need a room for meetup

    • Nothing available at Red hat

    • Intel, still checking

  1. Status of Release
    1. What do we want in the release?


    2. virt plugin enhancements

      Virt plugin should be enhanced to provide the following additional details:

      		Release GXX

      BAROMETER-99 - Virt plugin enhancement -- VM names OPEN

      ovs-dpdk-statsThe ovs-dpdk-stats plugin should include extended dpdk stats per interfaceRelease GXX

      BAROMETER-96 - Enable OVS-DPDK PMD Statistics OPEN

      ovs-dpdk-events link statusThe ovs-dpdk-events plugin should indicate link status change eventsRelease GXX

      BAROMETER-109 - ovs-events link status OPEN

      DMA Functionality

      The DMA Local Agent will provide the following features:

      • Local processing of metrics – Allows metrics to be sampled at a higher rate than storage rate for detection of short-lived conditions.
      • Runtime configuration of collectd – Collectd configuration can be managed remotely with the Local Agent providing the writing of collectd configuration and collectd restart.
      • Simple OpenStack metadata discovery – Provide runtime information related to the mapping between virtual and physical elements.  The metadata can be attached to metric sent by collectd.
      		Release GXX

      BAROMETER-95 - The DMA project will provide additional functional for the Barometer project OPEN

      DMA ContainerAdd DMA container buildRelease GXX

      BAROMETER-94 - The DMA project will exist as a container separate from the collectd container OPEN

      Collectd ovs_stats plugin does not collect dpdk interface statistics if under bond interface

      The ovs stats plugin collects the right set of data in case the dpdk interfaces are mapped directly under the ovs bridge. But for the use case where a bonding interface is needed underneath the ovs bridge, ovs stats cannot pull the dpdk interface statistics.


      		Release GXX


      BAROMETER-92 - Collectd ovs_stats plugin does not collect dpdk interface statistics if under bond interface OPEN


    3. Original plan stalled by no release from Collectd.  
    4. virt plugin enhancements – Complete waiting on release
    5. ovs-dpdk-stats – 
    6. DMA Functionality - In progress
    7. DMA Container - In progress
    8. Collectd ovs_stats plugin does not collect dpdk interface statistics if under bond interface – completed waiting on release

·        Dev Updates

o   https://jira.opnfv.org/browse/BAROMETER-106

[ELF] Patches created; waiting internal approval to upstream

o   https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/#/c/59635/

§  Write redis plugin enable

§  Need +1

o   https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/#/c/59209/

o   Upcoming milestones

§  MS6 -- August 24

...

·        Need to have development “mostly” complete by then

[ELF] Major feature should at least be proposed and partly reviewed at this time.

Functest support should be mostly done (tests upstreamed for collectd-plugins), bug fixes are okay after this date but no new tests.

§  MS7 -- September 14

·        Stable branch window close

·        Need feedback on the following list of collect plugins

o   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=POST&bug_status=MODIFIED&bug_status=ON_DEV&bug_status=ON_QA&bug_status=VERIFIED&component=collectd&known_name=collectd-all&list_id=9166173&product=Red%20Hat%20OpenStack&query_based_on=collectd-all&query_format=advanced

o   Feedback will help prioritize work

...

o   Also, join #collectd on Freenode if possible

[ELF] Not likely to be available for Gambia, given that we would need to provide config, docs, validation in Barometer once it is closed; However, we should continue to help.

·        Openstack voting has begun

o   https://www.openstack.org/summit/berlin-2018/vote-for-speakers/#/22013

o   https://www.openstack.org/summit/berlin-2018/vote-for-speakers/#/22000

[ELF] There was a very short voting period this time around, and it’s already closed

AOB:

-        Collectd container split: Need to check whether the separate container build jobs (master and stable) are configured correctly; so we can start adding config and build support for newer features (Emma/Kamil)
