[Starlingx-discuss] Weekly StarlingX non-OpenStack Distro meeting

[Xie, Cindy]

Agenda & Notes for 12/19 meetings:
    1. CentOS7.6 upgrade (including kernel 3.10.0.957) status update (Shuicheng/Martin)
    kernel upgrade will be done in feature branch instead of master (original planned). Martin finished kernel upgrade (std/rt) with patch pending for review. It cannot be merged before the out-of-tree kernel drivers to be done. Same story as of kernel . 
    Kernel upgrade is part of the 7.6 upgrade now, so until kernel is upgraded, feature branch will not be closed. We will have 3 major tasks be done at feature branch:
- srpm/rpm upgrade ( https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2004522): started the task. Already have 2 sRPM patch ready for review. 
- Kernel upgrade (3.10.0.957, https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2004521)
- Out of tree kernel module upgrade (use the same story: https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2004521)
Need to review the OVS/DPDK upgrade strategy in network sub-project tomorrow. May use 2004521 and add one task. 

    2. Ceph upgrade status (Vivian/Dehao/Changcheng)
    Ceph rest-api src removed from 13.2.2, moved to Ceph-mgr. refactor the original design to implement the same functionality. Need to enable Ceph-mgr daemon first. Then to enable Ceph-rest-api plug-in. With the help from Ovidiu, made some progress. Need more help from GDC team for the deployment.
    Frank: ever brought up a storage dedicate system which can be used for comparison? Changcheng ever deployed virtual system. 
    Need to have one up & running system to compare the logs; Need tutorial 1on1. Virtual environment with a bigger system can do a storage dedicated deployment . 
    Abraham from GDC who did the deployment for a storage dedicated deployment will try again. wiki is not updated for a while - Abe is responsible to update that. 
    Frank can provide 1 hour training for how stx-service up for Ceph.
    
    3. DevStack for Flocks plug-in (Dean/Yi)
    15 patches regarding Devstack plug-in merged: nfv, config,  fm and update. Enabled 4 services of nfv, 3 services of config and 1 service of fault. 
    still have 5 patches under review: ha, metal and gui. expect to enable 12 services for metal, gui is not updated for a while (pending Hayde). 
    remaining service not enabled yet: nfv, metal and patch(update), more than 10 services to be enabled. 
    can we use Devstack for pre-merge test? Need to check the functionality which is coupled tightly. 
    
    4. Opens (all)
    we will cancel the meeting for next week and the week after the next. Will talk to the team after new Year.
    Happy Holiday!
