Minutes for 20 November: Due to incorrect commands entered in IRC- No official archive. In line below is a manual cut n paste for IRC log
[07:03] <bob_> short agenda today joe kidder giving update on Pharos lab
Discussing Fuel experience….team has been removing x86-isms from Fuel. Using a small 2 node pod for now until additional 3 servers arrive from supplier. will expand to 5 node within 2-3 weeks. Iben asks if this all being done in one team and could others join in. Joe indicates it is all in house yet- not sure how to open it up just yet. Iben asks if access to the process or code can be opened up for others to help. Joe has to talk to his team internally but notes that the lab in not accessible to any external folks and also wants to balance slowing down internal initial steps with opening it up to external folks …not quite ready yet.
Iben suggested that not necessarily wanting to get the code but could possibly see the process and logjams and give some advice #action Joe to confer with internal team and see if they can benefit from having a meeting with a couple of external players
We discussed the limitation of these installers being tied to homogenous distro on the nodes. Michael R asked if Docker could help. Joe responded that Docker is not ready yet.
Bob noted that 3 more servers should be shipped any day. Bob will send Joe a status today if vendor replied.
functest status Engineer is going thru the step functest The first blocker is that the test wants to load an Intel specific binary blob called a cirros image to do a quick process check. his image can just be switched with something else
#action Joe kidder to open ticket to Functest team re: this change
Bob asked about Yardstick readiness?
Iben commented that all of the installers are now running Yardstick as well as Functest. Iben noted that other test projects like QTIP and VSPerf only apparently work on 1 lab and therefore may not make B -Release
Bob asks that any volunteers to help look at do discovery on Yardstick and Functest Iben suggests that we need to get more labs up and running and have others trying to get Pharos running Iben notes that if other labs are indeed trying to get up and running, we need to document that #action bob to document the labs that are planning to get ARM servers up and running
Iben asked if we had discussed mixed mode pods .i.e x86 controllers and ARM compute nodes? [Joe comments that has been discussed and is certainly a use case of interest out there, but Bob commented that the Installers may still be the blocker- cannot load different binaries to different node
Might be possible using availability zone capabilities that is supported in OpenStack
#action create a request to follow up on seeing if we can work on this mixed mode pod in due time. Not a b release priority but yes.
No meeting 13 November due to OPNFV Summit travel
Agenda for 06 November
#1) Agenda Bashing
#2) Pharos Lab Ramp-up Status- Joe Kidder
#3) Review of the Armband project Jira Issues list https://jira.opnfv.org/browse/ARMBAND-20?jql=project%20%3D%20ARMBAND
4) Request for help on beginning to look at CI build in Octopus (Items 17 and 18 in Armband Jira Issues list)
- We want to get volunteers to interface with the CI project to begin working with the build of the OPNFV stack for ARM Servers. This can be done in parallel to getting the lab up and running, we presume. There is a build of the standard components every day and this is either a native or cross compile for Intel servers at the moment. What we need is a modified cross compile build for ARM servers. So obviously need team members skilled in build Linux and userland filesystem for ARM servers. In any case, we need to discuss options and get a head start on this.
#5) Open floor and wrap up.

Agenda for 30 October
#1) Agenda Bashing
#2) Pharos Lab rmap-up Status- Joe Kidder
#3) Request for help on beginning to look at sample application testing/Functest
- We want to get volunteers to port/test sample apps like OpenWRT, vIDS (based on Snort) or other suggestions that are based on what was originally listed for Arno. In any case, we need to discuss options and get a head start on this.
#4) Review project integration survey at https://wiki.opnfv.org/armband/projectintegrationsurvey
#5) Open floor and wrap up.

#3) Project scoping for requirements and recruiting help with adding ARM support
- There is a table of identified projects marked yes, No , Maybe as to whether we currently think we must spedn cycles to meet the Brahmputra release
- The table is at https://wiki.opnfv.org/armband/projectintegrationsurvey
- Please take a look at this table and volunteer to take 1 or more projects to investigate, contact projects leads and ask questions of team members as to what we would need to do to support ARM servers in the project
#4) Misc open floor and wrap up

#3) Installer investigation (Joe Kidder) - we have identified 2 key installers we should consider and they seem to be aligned with certain linux distributions- Fuel (Ubuntu) and Apex (Foreman) (CentOS)
#4) Pharos Lab conformance for ARM server Pods. We are seeking members familiar with Pharos and Bob will join the meeting this week to begin enquiring as to what we need to do to operate a Pharos compliant lab. Discussion and input needed in the meeting.
