Hi  Erno,

I agree that we must document what all config parameters will be reloaded after 
SIGHUP signal is processed, that's the reason why we have added DocImpact tag 
to patch https://review.openstack.org/#/c/117988/. We will test what parameters 
are reloaded and report them to the Doc team.


Our use case:


We want to use SIGHUP signal to reload filesystem store related config 
parameters namely "filesystem_store_datadir" and "filesystem_store_datadirs" 
which are very crucial in the production environment especially for people 
using NFS. In case, the filesystem is approaching at full capacity, 
administrator can add more storage and configured it via the above parameters 
which will be taken into effect upon sending SIGHUP signal. Secondly, most of 
the OpenStack services uses service framework and it does handle reloading of 
configuration files via SIGHUP signal which glance cannot without this patch.


Thanks & Regards,


Abhishek Kekane

Subject: RE: [openstack-dev] [glance][feature freeze exception] Proposal for 
using Launcher/ProcessLauncher for launching services

Hi All,

Please give your support me for applying the  freeze exception for using 
oslo-incubator service framework in glance, based on the following blueprint:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/use-common-service-framework

I have ensured that after making these changes everything is working smoothly.

I have done the functional testing for following three scenarios:

1.       Enabled SSL and checked requests are processed by the Api service 
before and after SIGHUP signal

2.       Disabled SSL and  checked requests are processed by the Api service 
before and after SIGHUP signal

3.       I have also ensured reloading of the parameters like 
ilesystem_store_datadir, filesystem_store_datadirs are  working effectively 
after sending the SIGHUP signal.

To test 1st and 2nd I have created a python script which will send multiple 
requests to glance at a time and added a chron job to send a SIGHUP signal to 
the parent process.
I have tested above script for 1 hour and confirmed every request has been 
processed successfully.

Please consider this feature to be a part of Juno release.



Thanks & Regards,

Abhishek Kekane

Subject: [openstack-dev] [glance][feature freeze exception] Proposal for using 
Launcher/ProcessLauncher for launching services

Hi All,

I'd like to ask for a feature freeze exception for using oslo-incubator service 
framework in glance, based on the following blueprint:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/use-common-service-framework


The code to implement this feature is under review at present.

1. Sync oslo-incubator service module in glance: 
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/117135/2
2. Use Launcher/ProcessLauncher in glance: 
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/117988/


If we have this feature in glance then we can able to use features like reload 
glance configuration file without restart, graceful shutdown etc.
Also it will use common code like other OpenStack projects nova, keystone, 
cinder does.


We are ready to address all the concerns of the community if they have any.


Thanks & Regards,

Abhishek Kekane
