Bug 1310831

I yanked sosreport. Looks like osprofiler assumes that kwargs contain ascii characters only [1]. Please, disable osprofiler in /etc/cinder.conf. This is disabled by default so I assume you turned it on.

[1] https://github.com/openstack/osprofiler/blob/master/osprofiler/profiler.py#L114

It seems that we have at least one place in the upstream Kilo (equivalent to the RHEL OSP 7.0 ) code that unconditionally turn on osprofiler [1], that's why it ignores a configuration parameter which is false by default.

It's already fixed in master [2] so we can backport that patch as a workaround
until osprofiler will fix an encoding problem.

[2] https://github.com/openstack/cinder/blob/master/cinder/service.py#L134

This is the patch [1] that I mentioned in comment#3.

We removed the "osprofiler" configuration from the pipeline, restarted every services and retried ... same result, we're still getting the same error.   Would it be possible to get a hotfix for this?

We are working on that. Please, see comment#3 and comment#4.

I can confirm the patch is fixing my customer's issue .  Thank you very much!
