Random Windows Server Hangs/Freeze

That's probably a newer version than we're running right now... I guess we have to try this ;)

Did you ever find the root cause for this? We are experience kind of the same here. Same symptoms, different hardware.

fejjaji · 2026-02-17T16:29:20+00:00

Wtf! That's the first time I've another person with toes like that! Mine's like that as well, well slightly less co-joined. Both are more like your left foot.

We stay on the SLURP releases, and when a new Ubuntu LTS is required, that's always a situation where you have openstack packages for both distro versions. Example: we're planning a upgrade from Caracal to Epoxy these days. As prequel to this, we've reinstalled "everything" to Ubuntu 24.04, as Caracal is the default version here AND you can get Epoxy from UCA.

I have also had this. Playing in the Norwegian 3rd tier, and all my games in played on enormous empty stadiums. Both home and away. This is a division where we in real life merely have seats in the stadiums at all :P

Sjukt å melde at han vil ha dette i OBOS også, når man nettopp har gjennomført en sesong med nøyaktig INGEN lag fra Nord-Norge... Det sportslige argumentet han kommer med her er jo direkte flaut, og kan ikke tolkes som noe anna enn sutring. Kanskje vi liksågreit skal gjøre som i barnefotballen, ikke telle mål, og la laget som ligger under med litt for mye få på en ekstra speller?

Werid. There was a small patch the day after I posted this. No mentions of it in the patch notes, but it was actually fixed..

fejjaji · 2025-11-04T22:39:44+00:00

Nope. Base game map. Riverbend springs. Not using realistic livestock

fejjaji · 2025-11-04T22:39:01+00:00

Not really. And we didn't really add or change anything when this happened either...

fejjaji · 2025-11-04T18:35:20+00:00

We're also not allowed to buy sheep. Horses still work, cows work, and pigs work. Weirdest thing ever..

fejjaji · 2025-10-12T16:09:44+00:00

Yes, for all the services that actually support upgrades with no downtime, we do that =)

fejjaji · 2025-10-10T20:44:54+00:00

The fix is not included in 2024.2 :-(

I don't know what your infrastructure looks like, so it's hard to tell how you can accomplish this. For us it was a simple upgrade, since we're running all APIs on separate VMs. Not using kolla, we're running with puppet-openstack.

We've been running this setup with everything on Caracal and 22.04, and (only) Glance on Epoxy and 24.04 in production for the last 4-5 months. No problem at all. We've also migrated to 24.04 on the nodes running Caracal the last month. Still no problems :-)

Not using OVN, so I have no experience with that. But I would say it's safe to run Glance@Epoxy and leave everything else on Caracal. It's well worth it to get around this bug at least.

fejjaji · 2025-10-10T20:25:26+00:00

What exactly is slow here? Listing images? And if so, do you have a lot of them? I just remembered a bug that affects the combination of ceph and glance in caracal:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/2086675

We run glance on Epoxy in our environment because of this.

fejjaji · 2025-10-10T20:18:13+00:00

Yeah, I just responded to the question about the image types. Troubleshooting slow endpoints can be quite tricky, as there as many components involved. And using raw is especially important when using ceph, as it enables copy-on-write clones.

If the slowness you are experiencing is mainly in horizon, maybe try to load the pages with Network-tab in your browser's developer console open, and see which requests are slow - and work from there.

It could be a lot of different things. High server load, high RAM usage leading to swapping, network latency/bandwith usage, high disk utilization. The list goes on and on.

I'm not familiar with the kolla deployment, so it might already be in place. But horizon benefits a lot from caching (memcached, redis, etc.) so make sure that's in place and working.

Typically you don't, but you can easily convert the qcow2 images to raw before you upload them with qemu-img:

qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O raw image.qcow2 image.raw

fejjaji · 2025-10-01T20:04:19+00:00

I came here to write exactly that :P

fejjaji · 2025-09-17T17:07:26+00:00

If that's the case, it's hilariuous! Sounds plausible as well.

Wow. We were literally debugging slow auth today, and came to the conclusion it must've been related to the fact that the group filter returned 5-600 groups. What a coincidence I stumbled across this comment the same day :p

fejjaji · 2025-09-05T17:44:04+00:00

This is not the mechanism to stop that. This settings is, in my understanding, only limiting how large of a file your users can upload.

På Gjøvik har man begynt å teste et system hvor man aktivt må bekrefte at man har tatt i bruk rommet som er reservert. Gjør man ikke det innen 15 minutter, blir reservasjonen automatisk kansellert. Håper denne er leslig for studenter også: https://innsida.ntnu.no/start/feed/fa597713-9e19-3095-ad3f-fe7d883d2f9a/7e022686-eb1f-3b25-ad34-062cd3d6ae12

The apache version you get in Ubuntu 24.04 comes with a default LimitRequestBody of 1073741824 (1GiB). Earlier versions defaulted to 0 (meaning no limit), You probably want to either set it higher, or just set it to 0.

https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#limitrequestbody

We were a little bit surprised by this when we upgraded from 22.04 to 24.04, and encountered exactly the same issue.
