I see this error periodically in designate-producer.logs Error starting thread.: designate.exceptions.ConfigurationError: No periodic tasks found matching: ['None']

[Debasis]

With the latest designate kolla-ansible images pulled today, I see the following errors in the producer.log

Error starting thread.: designate.exceptions.ConfigurationError: No periodic tasks found matching: ['None']

This is an issue with your configuration.

If you have the following in your configuration you are basically disabling all taks in the designate-producer, but starting with Bobcat some of those tasks are required for Designate to work.
> enabled_tasks = None

I commited a fix to Ansible in August.

[Debasis (debamondal)]

Thank you for your reply. This fixed my issue.
However, I see another issue with a relatively old image(to be specific 3 months old). On deleting the instance, I expect my A record to get deleted. However, that is not happening. Can you suggest anything on this?

[Erik Olof Gunnar Andersson (eandersson)]

Are you seeing any errors in the logs? If not it's likely something to do with the notifications not being sent properly from the nova-compute on deletion.

[Debasis (debamondal)]

Ok, I checked. There's no error in designate or in neutron or in nova. I think, this feature is missing.

Also, if the network is shared, neutron is unable to register a recordset in the corresponding zone unless subnet-dns-publish-fixed-ip is set. Is it expected behavior? My zone is set to --all-projects.

[Debasis (debamondal)]

I've two networks named 1. private-net, 2. shared-net with dns_domain set as <project_id>.private.com. and <project_id>.shared.com both have router:external set to false.

I also created two zones named {{project_id}}.private.com. and {{project_id}}.shared.com.

In this scenario, I also face another problem while deleting an instance. It errors out with the following logs in the neutron_server.log

I missed this error also

ERROR designate.notification_handler.nova [-] NovaFixedHandler: zone_id is None, ignore the event. in designate_sink.log

How to fix this?

[Erik Olof Gunnar Andersson (eandersson)]

You need to create a zone and then add the id for the zone here.

[Maksim Malchuk (mmalchuk)]

If need to manually add something before deploy there is need to fix somehow the issue and maybe stop depoly with warning message? lets fix and create the followup on https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/kolla-ansible/+/424679
