I just haven't had a chance to do much with it yet. 19:06:42 Willo and I were supposed to be redoing the infrastructure map based on the Nagios graphics, but we haven't hooked back up yet. 19:06:44 ok, no worries. ;) 19:06:54 cool. 19:07:14 #topic Applications status / discussion 19:07:27 ok, any applications news recently and upcoming? :) 19:07:38 #info new fedocal into production today. Congrats pingou 19:07:47 well let me debug it first :D 19:07:59 problems? ;( 19:07:59 but yeah, 0.4.2 is in prod :) 19:08:19 mirek: would you have a few to discuss some copr stuff? 19:08:24 #info new fedora-tagger in staging. should be in production by the end of the day 19:08:26 I deployed new version of Copr on Monday, it should get rid of most of traceback (but I saved several errors and TB for future :) ) 19:08:31 includes api enhancements for hughsie/gnome-software 19:08:39 \รณ/ 19:08:42 mirek: cool! 19:08:51 #info new copr version on monday. 19:09:04 still not havving https, because even second version of certs are borged, so waiting on third delivery 19:09:33 mirek: question: copr-be uses ansible to spin up a cloud instance, then it sends builds to it, builds and pulls them back, right? 19:09:39 threebean: nice! so will voting in gnome-software immediately hit tagger, trigger a fedmsg, etc? 19:10:15 nirik: yes 19:10:43 lmacken: yup. it already does for 'ratings' right now. the new feature adds 'usage', so you can say "I use this application", and we'll keep track of that. 19:10:51 mirek: so, if we got a arm chassis moved over there sometime... how could we handle it? how hard would it be to modify the cloud part to use ipmitool to reinstall an arm SOC and use that for the build? 19:10:54 lmacken: gnome-software will use that stat to help rank applications in its search. 19:10:56 threebean: oh wow, very nice. 19:11:16 lmacken: no badges yet, (no auth on the gnome-software part, yet) 19:11:42 soon, soon. 19:11:44 the code just do: "ansible-playbook builder.yml" 19:12:06 mirek: cool, so it should be not too hard to conditionalize the arm part to act differently if needed... 19:12:07 it would be easy to modify it to do "ansible-playbook builder.$ARCH.yml" 19:12:28 yes 19:12:56 nirik: do you have some details about that part "if we got"? :) 19:13:05 ok, great. second dumb idea: how hard would it be to add making live images? pass ks file instead of src.rpm and use livecd-creator? 19:13:56 mirek: well, we have 4 arm chassis... we might be able to free up one for that before too long. Also, looks like we might get some new arm boxes soon... we might be able to put a pair of them or something in for copr to use. ;) 19:14:22 nirik: somebody would have to code it. not hard, but it will take some time. week or two.. and it is not my priority 19:14:46 I would say this is a perfect place for people who want ARM support to step in 19:14:53 nirik: cool 19:14:56 no problems, just wondering again... it has it's share of issues. 19:14:59 smooge: agree 19:15:19 * nirik has no more dumb coprs ideas off hand. ;) 19:15:52 I have one 19:15:53 my goal is to not introduce more features (beside ability to build SCL) and make it robust and get rid of bugs 19:15:53 abompard: if you are around, we should talk some hyperkitty. ;) 19:15:55 rename copr to coprs 19:16:02 smooge: :) 19:16:07 nirik: sure 19:16:13 and e.g. signing have much mor priority 19:16:17 * threebean always thought it was the Cool Other Package Repository System 19:16:31 mirek: is there a todo list somewhere? 19:17:22 abompard: so, I made mailman01/02 in production. I haven't run the playbook on them much, it bombed out somewhere ( I can't recall where... looking for the package?). I guess we need to get them all playbooked up before anything else. Should it be ok to run that playbook on them? 19:17:24 nirik: bugzilla + plus make api call to get last time of update (only not tracked feature we need) 19:18:11 cool 19:18:28 nirik: so can I do something to get those ARM systems? 19:18:33 nirik: or just wait? 19:19:21 mirek: just wait for now. I need to talk to dgilmore when he's back online (he's traveling right now) about the existing ones, the new ones we should hear about more in coming weeks... (and they should also be able to do aarch64 ;) 19:20:01 nirik: ok, dgilmore will be on devconf next week - so I will talk to him there 19:20:38 mirek: sure, ping me and I can let you know what my thought was on them... 19:21:14 * pingou about to release fedocal 0.4.3 19:21:31 #info work ongoing to add arm support to copr, but in holding for now. 19:22:23 threebean: how's notifications looking? 19:22:45 good, I think :) 19:22:55 https://apps.fedoraproject.org/notifications 19:23:08 oh we should speak about where we would like cnucnu-web 19:23:15 I have the domain name now: release-monitoring.org 19:23:20 it just needs testing and feedback. I anticipate there will be lots of scenarios that people want handled that it cannot manage yet 19:23:23 so, we want to do a 'soft launch' right? ie, have just us test it out for a bit and work out bugs, then announce it later? 19:23:28 nirik: please 19:23:40 although, anyone in the meeting or reading the meeting notes is encouraged to try it and use it 19:23:47 #link https://apps.fedoraproject.org/notifications 19:23:48 please file bugs with RFEs, etc. 19:23:57 * randomuser winks at threebean 19:24:02 randomuser: ;p 19:24:06 pingou: cool. we can stick it at osuosl I think... I can make an instance. Does it need a stg one? or just one prod instance? 19:24:19 cnucnu still needs quite a bit of the code refactoring after having discussing it with abadger1999 , but we could already have an idea where it should go live 19:24:28 randomuser: meetbot actually notices links without #link. ;) 19:24:58 nirik: an stg box might make sense, even if we drop it after 19:25:15 nirik, cool, I didn't know that 19:25:54 pingou: ok, let me ponder on that... all our stg is in phx2 and uses stg.fedoraproject.org... will need to look and see if we can easily point another domain there and have it work via the proxies, etc. 19:26:05 we may need to make it somewhere else isolated. 19:26:17 nirik: or we just make the prod box and don't announce it until it's ready 19:26:19 the domain is owned by you? or rh? 19:26:24 rh 19:26:29 that works for me. 19:27:15 I can make it, or show any interested folks how to do so. ;) 19:27:21 * mirek lost inet connection for last 5 minutes 19:27:38 #info notifications going into more testing and feedback, will not announce yet. 19:27:41 * pingou interested 19:27:54 nirik: but let's do that after devconf 19:27:59 mirek, they talked about cnucnu 19:28:05 before I won't really have the time 19:28:07 #info cnucnu-web will get a prod instance setup and more testing, etc. 19:28:13 * willo is interested also 19:28:13 pingou: sure, sounds fine. 19:28:40 for the unitiated, what's cnucnu? (quick one-liner) 19:29:00 danofsatx-work: http://209.132.184.188/cnucnu/ 19:29:00 upstream release monitoring 19:29:05 danofsatx-work: 1 line :) 19:29:43 ktx ;) 19:29:50 right, so it watches when upstreams release new versions and lets downstreams (like fedora) know. 19:29:58 using fedmsg 19:29:59 abompard: did you drop off? ;( 19:30:24 nirik: was cut off somehow, I saw your message, I'll need to look at those playbooks 19:30:40 pingou: that link isn't responding, btw - at least to me. 19:30:43 abompard: ok, I can assist in debugging/fixing. just ping me anytime you are working on it. 19:31:01 nirik: sure. They're in the same usual place? 19:31:04 abompard: once those are all good, we need to figure out how to route emails, then setup test list and profit. ;) 19:31:15 nirik: the plan looks good:-) 19:31:30 abompard: yeah, it's the same as the mailman01.stg one, I just added mailman01.phx2/mailman02.phx to the affected hosts. 19:31:33 danofsatx-work: hm, annoyingly for me as well 19:31:45 pingou: no response as well 19:31:56 nirik: okay so I just run the group playbooks and the new hosts will be deployed too. Perfect. 19:32:13 abompard: yeah, although I already did that part, so they should be up, just need the rest of the playbook. 19:32:44 nirik: okay, I'll test that tomorrow and let you know when you get up :-) 19:33:01 sounds great. I'd really like to get hyperkitty rolling... 19:33:02 willo: danofsatx-work looking into it 19:33:17 pingou: no prob 19:33:33 any other application news or plans? 19:33:49 nirik: me too, and I'd like it setup and running before the middle of feb, cause that's when my vacations start ;-) 19:34:12 abompard: yeah, and ideally some time while you are around to fix the issues too. ;) 19:34:12 abompard: so you can work more when the setup is done ? 19:34:49 misc: ? 19:35:07 #topic Sysadmin status / discussion 19:35:13 so, on the sysadmin side... 19:35:23 smooge is planning a trip out to our phx2 datacenter. 19:35:25 misc: ah, gotcha 19:35:39 smooge: feb 11th - 14th? right? 19:35:40 I will be out feb 11-14 19:35:45 cool. 19:35:53 If there are problems I will be there on the 15th 19:35:59 #info smooge in phx2 feb 11th to 14th 19:36:19 we have a bunch of machine orders in various states of limbo... so we will see what we get before then. 19:36:48 but my day to call it for the 15th will be no later than the 13th. If something comes up on the 14th I am calling it too late and heading home 19:37:02 completely fair. 19:37:09 we will be replacing the download servers in PHX2 when I am out there I think 19:37:11 we need to come up with a todo list for you. 19:37:13 that got approved 19:37:20 cool. 19:37:42 I will be doing 1 day of GNOME stuff, 1 day of PPC stuff, 1 day of inventory stuff 19:37:50 and I think 2 days of other stuff 19:38:06 how often sometimes do this visit to phx? 19:38:08 using the usual 8 hours is a day and I do 16 hours at the place 19:38:09 oh yeah, whats the current ppc status? did they ship new hw? or were waiting for you to get out there? 19:38:21 mirek: we go 2x a year normally. 19:38:21 I heard they were going to ship it last week 19:38:42 cool. 19:39:41 ok, lets see... I have the ansible daily cron job running away... it's going to sysadmin-logs like our other logs, but perhaps I will move it to just sysadmin... 19:40:05 I have almost migrated unbound module to ansible. Some bits are left but I'll finish them over the weekend. 19:40:08 I've been looking at it and running playbooks to sync up hosts that have changes (usually things to the base role) 19:40:26 adimania: excellent. Thanks for working on it. 19:40:28 Can we have a list of such modules which are suitable for beginners? 19:40:40 I can look for some more, sure. 19:40:43 sort of eayfix 19:40:54 s/eayfix/easyfix 19:41:08 yeah. some will not be too hard at all... others will be a bit more complex. 19:41:43 right. Maybe a heuristic list will help 19:41:48 I figure one goal will be to make the download boxes work ansible only 19:42:01 smooge: +1, yes, they should be another pretty easy one. 19:42:25 nfs mount, rsync, httpd, not much else really. 19:43:04 #topic Upcoming Tasks/Items 19:43:04 https://apps.fedoraproject.org/calendar/list/infrastructure/ 19:43:13 anything upcoming anyone would like to note or schedule? 19:43:45 I added the weekly meeting to the infrastructure calendar on fedocal 19:43:58 thanks. ;) (I thought I did a while back?) 19:43:58 with location fedora-meeting@irc.freenode.net 19:44:07 nice 19:44:09 nirik: you did, to the fedora-meeting calendar :) 19:44:15 ah...
