[rdo-dev] Status of RDO Stein GA preparation and current blockers

Hi, Given that we'll have Stein GA released upstream very soon (probably tomorrow), I'm summarizing the status of RDO preparation for this new release: - We have builds for all OpenStack services and other packages needed to pass all puppet-openstack-integration and packstack scenarios including final ones or latest RCs depending on the release model. - For TripleO packages (which are cycle-trailing), we will package and release RC tags as they are created using openstack/releases project. - We are still working to validate Ceph Nautilus (14.2.0) builds both using TripleO and puppet-openstack-integration. We are currently hitting some issues: * For TripleO deployment, a fix is needed in ceph-ansible to fix mon hosts parameter. * puppet-ceph need some fixes to support Nautilus [1]. While testing it we have found a problem in radosgw when working in chunked uploads impacting glance. One of the goals of RDO Stein is to support and default to Ceph Nautilus on GA, so I consider all issues related to it as blockers for publishing RDO Stein GA to the CentOS official repos. We are actively working to get these issues properly fixed but given that we'll need fixes in different upstream projects and coordination between StorageSIG and CloudSIG to avoid breaking upstream CI jobs I expect we will need some additional time after upstream GA to get it done. For anyone interested in testing RDO Stein packages, remember that you can use testing repository [2] or RDO Trunk repos [3] until hey are officially published on CentOS mirrors.
