  * Draft Blueprints Discussion
    * [[https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/update-server-state-immediately|Report host fault to update server state immediately]] from [[:doctor|Doctor]] Project

Tomi (Nokia) introduced this draft Blueprint at [[https://etherpad.opnfv.org/p/doctor_bps| Etherpad]]. There was no comment. Based on introduction, there doesn't seem any cross-project dependencies. The draft BP was open for comment since Monday March 23.

The consensus is that Tomi will ask the community for further review for one week starting from Monday March 23. If there is no comment or objection, this draft BP will move to OpenStack.

  * Project Proposal Discussion
    * Discuss New Requirement project proposals
      * [[requirements_projects:escalator|Escalator]]

Jie (ZTE) introduced this proposal in detail. Howard (Huawei) indicated that multisite deployment can be applied to upgrade scenario. Jie agreed that multisite is a good use case of Escalator, but not a dependency. Both Jie and Howard agreed to closely coordinate between multisite and Escalator.

Maria (Ericsson) asked if HA is out of scope, how does that affect the typical reliance of smooth upgrade on HA? Jie agreed to further consider and discuss the use case of HA. Jie will work with Maria on the scenario of HA upgrade.
