Hi Cephers,

These are the topics covered in today's meeting:

Releases

Hot fixes Releases

18.2.2

https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/55491 - reef: mgr/prometheus: fix orch check to prevent Prometheus crash

https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/55709 - reef: debian/*.postinst: add adduser as a dependency and specify --home when adduser

https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/55712 - reef: src/osd/OSDMap.cc: Fix encoder to produce same bytestream

[Laura] When/who can upgrade the LRC for this release? (Dan will after we do some last checks today)

Gibba has been upgraded with no apparent issues

17.2.8 (on hold based on whether the osdmap fix requirement) - No longer needed

osdmap fix (not needed: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/blob/quincy/src/osd/OSDMap.cc#L3087-L3089)

Rook requests to include this c-v fix that blocks OSDs in some scenarios (not worthy of its own hotfix, just please include if we do the hotfix)

https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/54522 - quincy: ceph-volume: fix a regression in raw list

As crc fix is not needed, the Rook request can be included in a regular quincy release

Regular releases

18.2.3 - exporter fixes for rook and debian-derived users make this more urgent than quincy

mgr usage of pyO3/cryptography an issue for debian - and possibly centos9 (https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/64213#note-2) - see notes from 02/07

Any updates on potentially dropping modules or another fix? Adam?

Squid 19.1.0

CephFS waiting for 2 feature PR

RGW PRs

NVMe? To be confirmed with Aviv

squid blockers:

ceph-object-corpus: https://github.com/ceph/ceph-object-corpus/pull/17 (testing in https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/54735)

Milestone for squid blockers (use to tag blockers for the first 19.1.0 RC): https://github.com/ceph/ceph/milestone/21

Squid RCs and community testing

https://pad.ceph.com/p/squid_scale_testing

Target date March ~20

17.2.9

need jammy builds for quincy before a squid release. maybe we can just build them for the 17.2.7 release? (do you mean the 17.2.8 release?)

Meeting time - change days to Monday or Thursday? (added by Josh - who has a conflict on Wednesdays now)

Thursday has several conflicting community meetings

Any objections to Monday at the same time?

Note the change to US daylight savings next week
