When the separate image and instance delete threads were added for periodic cleanup of leaked images and instances, the same anti-duplication mechanism used for the periodic cleanup of nodes was used: an dictionary of thread objects keyed by the object being deleted. However, the cleanup of those delete threads was neglected, meaning that after those threads exited, if the object persisted, nodepool would never try to delete it again. This change adds the missing cleanup code. Change-Id: Iac4049d265e23a7eae1b2917181de3c35fb6359d
Nodepool
Nodepool is a service used by the OpenStack CI team to deploy and manage a pool of devstack images on a cloud server for use in OpenStack project testing.
Developer setup
Install dependencies:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -qy install git mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev g++\
python-dev python-pip libffi-dev libssl-dev qemu-utils
mkdir src
cd ~/src
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack-infra/system-config
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack-infra/nodepool
cd nodepool
sudo pip install -U -r requirements.txt
sudo pip install -e .
If you're testing a specific patch that is already in gerrit, you will also want to install git-review and apply that patch while in the nodepool directory, ie:
Create or adapt a nodepool yaml file. You can adapt an infra/system-config one, or fake.yaml as desired. Note that fake.yaml's settings won't Just Work - consult ./modules/openstack_project/templates/nodepool/nodepool.yaml.erb in the infra/system-config tree to see a production config.
If the cloud being used has no default_floating_pool defined in nova.conf, you will need to define a pool name using the nodepool yaml file to use floating ips.
Set up database for interactive testing:
mysql -u root
mysql> create database nodepool;
mysql> GRANT ALL ON nodepool.* TO 'nodepool'@'localhost';
mysql> flush privileges;
Set up database for unit tests:
mysql -u root
mysql> grant all privileges on *.* to 'openstack_citest'@'localhost' identified by 'openstack_citest' with grant option;
mysql> flush privileges;
mysql> create database openstack_citest;
Export variable for your ssh key so you can log into the created instances:
Start nodepool with a demo config file (copy or edit fake.yaml to contain your data):
All logging ends up in stdout.
Use the following tool to check on progress:
After each run (the fake nova provider is only in-memory):
