jamespagemarkus_z, switching to cpu-mode = 'none' fixed things sufficiently to get a cloud up and running13:50
jamespagealbeit in all on lpar using containers, but a useful validation point all the same13:50
markus_zjamespage: cool! Good to hear that. Thanks for the info.13:51
markus_zjamespage: Did I already mention that VNC is not working and you need the "serial console" if you want to access it in Horizon?13:51
markus_z"it" == an instance13:51
jamespagemarkus_z, ah - no I did not know that13:51
jamespagetbh I generally avoid horizon13:51
jamespagebut thanks for the feedback anyway13:52
markus_zjamespage: good choice :)13:52
jamespageserial console is not configured by the charms atm - I'll add that to the features list for next cycle...13:52
markus_zjamespage: The serial console still has limitations though. Live-migration is not possible with it. I'm working on a bug fix for that.13:53
markus_zhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/145525213:54
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1455252 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "enabling serial console breaks live migration" [High,In progress]13:54
xnoxmarkus_z, hm, surely we can connect to the virtio console and have migrations working et.al.? (same as on other arches)14:54
* xnox looks into the bug report14:54
markus_zxnox: It's not related to the arch. It behaves the same on x86. The way nova handles the ports during the live-migration is the root cause.15:01
xnoxah, ok =)15:01
xnoxmarkus_z, i meant VNC -> i thought that should work without serial console, and simply with the /dev/hvc0 console no?15:02
xnoxhvc0-7 consoles15:02
markus_zxnox: That' news to me. Isn't hvc0 xen related?15:04
xnoxmarkus_z, it might be qemu 2.5 new stuff. And yes hvc0 is usually xen stuff. I'll boot another instance on my machines in a moment to inspect available things.15:11
* xnox ponders if there is Xen on s390x15:11
smbxnox, no15:11
xnoxeither something is recycling the names, or possibly ubuntu config has xen stuff enabled =/15:12
xnox(kernel config)15:12
smbI think hvc is Xen but not only, there was something else using that name (thoug I thought ppc)15:12
markus_zI have to leave for today, we can talk tomorrow about this if you like.15:18
xnoxcpaelzer, infinity, smb - could you take a look at the last patch I've posted on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/1563854 ?15:36
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1563854 in update-notifier (Ubuntu) "update-notifier updates-available does not reset after dpkg run" [High,Fix released]15:36
xnoxit seems reasonable to me, but I'm not sure if it will re-introduce the stalls you have worked on removing in previous uploads.15:36
xnoxi'm gonna run in that config for a bit, and see if it's reasonable.15:36
smbxnox, I can try this as a manual fix, too. It looks reasonable and I guess the stalls were mainly because the cache was updated on every login. Now it would be only when running update or upgrade15:38
smbwhich I think is already protected somehow against concurrent runs15:39
cpaelzerxnox: looking15:40
cpaelzerxnox: yeah that update was lost, and currently has the delay til next update15:43
xnoxcpaelzer, so currently story: apt update, ssh localhost "you have X updates", apt full-upgrade, ssh localhost "you have X updates", apt update, "<no updates message>"15:44
cpaelzerxnox: I agree on "recounting" after DPkg ran to be a proper solution15:44
xnoxcool.15:44
cpaelzerI haven't tested15:44
xnoxwith this thing after dist-upgrade (even if partial) the right new count is displayed.15:44
cpaelzerdo you want us to test it too, any ppa or anything?15:44
xnoxi'll test it more with partial / aborted upgrades later on, before uploading.15:44
cpaelzeror just test itonce upload is through?15:44
xnoxcpaelzer, it's a conf file, just edit it in /etc/apt.conf.d =)15:45
cpaelzerxnox: so true15:45
xnoxto match the new stanza.15:45
cpaelzerxnox: let me get my numa "ยง$%& out of the way and I'll test it later one15:45
xnox=)15:45
* xnox wishes dasdfmt was faster16:18
cpaelzerxnox: your fixe worked for me in general and in the few tests I've made19:17
cpaelzerxnox: it achieves what you wanted and it didn't break anything for me that I would have noticed19:18
xnoxcpaelzer, cool. I was after that!19:19
cpaelzerand the extra latency is only added to another apt/dpkg action which is where it should belong to19:20
cpaelzeras you remember it was "on login" in the past which was horrible waiting these seconds over and over again :-)19:20
