Zabbix Updates - Please Read
by Nigel Jones
Hi Ho Everybody!
There will likely be a short period of time over the next couple of days
where Zabbix will be unable to report/etc (manual DB updates).
I'll also be taking a moment to 'restructure' (for want of a better
word) the way we monitor external hosts etc. - One of the reasons we
went for this self punishment was to get a feel for how it compared to
Nagios, I think it has performed great and we'll be able to orphan off
Cacti at the same time :).
Now here is the important bit:
We have a variety of applications that have been recently had things
added/altered/moved etc etc, or they have just been never added to
Nagios etc, so here is your challenge:
If you run/work on/do something with the Infrastructure that meets any
of the following criteria:
* Is seen by the public (fas, etc)
* Can cause problems to the normal routine (i.e. rawhide builds etc -
did it succeed?)
* Is important in some other way
* Has a nice statistic that people might want to know/track...
THEN PLEASE... let us know...
What we need to know is:
* How can such a thing be monitored? - Open ports/service, number of
processes, age of a file, running a command and checking the output,
running a custom script (to make it easier for us, if you can create
such script it'd be helpful) etc etc etc
* How often would it need to be checked?
* What does 'failure' mean wrt the check (if one exists - statistics
don't need this)
* How can such a 'failure' be fixed automatically (ditto for above)...
Then we can add them all together, stir the pot and be happy happy
happy.
Be extravagant too while we mightn't want to implement every single
check you suggest, you might think of something that might have been
forgotten...
(sysadmin-noc: I still need to work out the best way of scaling this,
but I think I've nearly got it, and a SOP will be written when it's
final)
- Nigel

puppet freeze request
by Mike McGrath
Priority: low(ish)
Risk: low
Seems puppet has failed on some of the boxes, this usually happens as a
result of a network issue. There's typically a cron job that checks
hourly to see if cron is running and if it is not, start it. Due to a
reversed ensure => logic in this cron job it was removed from most of the
servers. I'd like to change this back to the default.
Can I get 2 +1's?

Strange build error for classpathx-mail

Starting looking into updating classpathx-mail to version 1.1.2 (anyone
know of a reason not to?).
Got a really weird internal compiler error on the ppc64 build:

FAS dump breakage
by Michael Schwendt
There has been an invalid entry returned by the FAS group dump for some
time:
bbs,disabled,james francis toy iv,user,0
It contains no email address, but "disabled" in the addr field.
Now there's another invalid entry:
mahmoudelmegheny,mahmoud,elmegheny(a)hotmail.com,Mahmoud Ali,user,0
This entry consists of six fields instead of five. Perhaps one ',' is
supposed to be a '.'?

20:05 < G> mmcgrath: oh, I was just going to ask what the status of that was?
20:06 < mmcgrath> G: that part's actually done ish.
20:06 < mmcgrath> there's an emergency response card that was handed out to some of the sysadmin-main guys. We need to come up with some sort of list that can be made public though.
20:07 < mmcgrath> I'll make some comments on that ticket though about some permanent place to put stuff. Like our inventory.
20:07 -!- themayor [n=jack(a)net2.senecac.on.ca] has quit
20:07 < pvangundy> when you say public, like freely searchable or behind some login/pwd page?
20:07 < mmcgrath> pvangundy: not sure yet.
20:08 < mmcgrath> It gets tricky, I don't want to accidently give out someone's home phone number that didn't want it to be given out.
20:08 < G> mmcgrath: well iirc the original intention was to store "if you can't get hold of me on IRC and you really need something try..."
20:08 < mmcgrath> but ath the same time my information is generally available.
20:08 < mmcgrath> and it seems weird to keep two lists.
20:08 < mmcgrath> G: yeah
20:09 < mmcgrath> my info is all in the nagios configs right now anyway, and via the pager page
20:09 < mmcgrath> https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pager
20:09 < pvangundy> so what information would be given? Just phone #, additional email account to try and reach some one?
20:09 -!- mdomsch_ [n=Matt_Dom(a)cpe-70-124-62-55.austin.res.rr.com] has joined #fedora-meeting
20:09 < mmcgrath> pretty much, multiple phone numbers if their available, pager email address.
20:09 < mmcgrath> stuff like that.
20:10 < pvangundy> do we have a tool for SMS?
20:10 < mmcgrath> pvangundy: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pager
20:10 < mmcgrath> I think the big pusher here was ricky wanted peoples contact information once he was put in sysadmin-main and I think he has that now
20:10 < pvangundy> *sees now*
20:11 < mmcgrath> ricky: is that correct?
20:11 * ricky thinks for a moment
20:11 < G> mmcgrath: well it was one of the things I actually suggested iirc
20:12 < mmcgrath> G: not according to the ticket :-P
20:12 < ricky> I guess we could just document the two pager sites better
20:12 < mmcgrath> but either way, I'll get some docs together and have that ticket closed by the end of the week.
20:12 < ricky> (noc2 version: http://noc2.fedoraproject.org/pager and noc1 version: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pager)
20:12 -!- ubertibbs [n=tibbs@fedora/tibbs] has quit "Konversation terminated!"
20:12 < pvangundy> well, do you have a core group of individuals that you would wnat to get this information one? Surely you wouldn't want everyone in sysadmin-* contact info
20:12 < G> mmcgrath: mainly if the shit hit the fan when I was around (which is when you guys aren't) and noone responded I'd be able to get it another way
20:13 < pvangundy> one = on
20:13 < mmcgrath> <nod>
20:13 < G> mmcgrath: ricky skimped on the paste iirc :) - can't be sure though
20:13 < mmcgrath> pvangundy: yeah but the problem is making sure the non-main members to get ahold of the main members.
20:13 < pvangundy> gotcha
20:14 < mmcgrath> Anywho, I've got an idea. I'll get it done, documented and in the ticket soon.
20:14 < G> mmcgrath: and really the ones that would want to would be -web, -noc & -build really :)
20:14 < mmcgrath> anyone have anything else on that? If not we'll move on?
20:14 < G> move on, sorry for sidetracking :)
20:14 < mmcgrath> no worries, we don't have much on the docket today
20:14 < mmcgrath> So we're in another pre-release freeze.
20:15 < mmcgrath> Should be pretty straight forward, we're getting better at these releases.
20:15 < mmcgrath> I'm going to be spending some time on docs.
20:15 < mmcgrath> I'd encourage everyone to spend time looking through logs and writing down things that should be fixed, or alternatively working on testing F10.
20:16 < mmcgrath> get bugs knocked down, or report new ones. Hopefully more of the former :)
20:16 < wwoods> yes please!
20:16 < mmcgrath> Anyone have any questions about the pre-release freeze?
20:16 < mmcgrath> wwoods: :-P
20:17 < mmcgrath> k
20:17 -!- mmcgrath changed the topic of #fedora-meeting to: Infrastructure -- func problems
20:17 < G> ohhh fun :)
20:17 < mmcgrath> So func did a really odd thing recently and I think we're mostly fixed.
20:17 * lmacken checks to see if his func scripts work
20:17 < ricky> I saw you guys discussing it - what did it turn out to be?
20:18 < mmcgrath> So in a previous version of func there was a bug that caused services that func restarted to bind to the func port.
20:18 < lmacken> I think some issue where func wasn't closing file descriptors, or something ?
20:18 < mmcgrath> and they'd wait in line.
20:18 < ricky> Haha
20:18 < lmacken> gah, still getting a traceback :(
20:18 < lmacken> File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/certmaster/utils.py", line 63, in nice_exception
20:18 < G> func doesn't seem to be running on app6, etc
20:18 < ricky> That is weird stuff.
20:18 < lmacken> lefti = etype.index("'") + 1
20:18 < lmacken> ValueError: substring not found
20:18 < mmcgrath> lmacken: could be, I didn't look that close.
20:18 < mmcgrath> lmacken: there's a couple of hosts where func communcation wasn't working right.
20:18 < mmcgrath> you shouldn't see freezing like you were
20:18 < lmacken> we may need to restart func everywhere
20:18 < mmcgrath> but some tracebacks still hapen.
20:18 < mmcgrath> like on app6
20:18 < G> mmcgrath: yeah, app6, collab2 for instance
20:18 < lmacken> you can do `func "*" ping` to see the same traceback
20:19 < mmcgrath> lmacken: I did that everywhere today. sometimes func just wasn't binding.
20:19 < mmcgrath> just more of the joys of early adoption.
20:20 < lmacken> Hmm, odd. I'll open a ticket
20:20 -!- mdomsch [n=Matt_Dom(a)cpe-70-124-62-55.austin.res.rr.com] has quit Remote closed the connection
20:20 < mmcgrath> I looked briefly at what was going on with func but never totally figured it out. I suspect its a communication / network issue. Could be wrong though.
20:20 < mmcgrath> skvidal would be good to tap. It might be something simple.
20:20 * skvidal looks up
20:20 < mmcgrath> Needless to say.. what a weird thing to actually witness.
20:20 -!- DemonJester [n=DemonJes@fedora/DemonJester] has quit "leaving"
20:20 < skvidal> the value error thing I have an idea about, yes
20:20 < mmcgrath> skvidal: func isn't restarting properly on some hosts like app6 or tummy1
20:21 < G> mmcgrath: on the same note... proxy1's puppetd seems to like crashing
20:21 < skvidal> mmcgrath: which trace back is it giving?
20:21 < mmcgrath> skvidal: the funcmaster is giving a traceback, func on the minion isn't doing much of anything
20:21 < skvidal> nm I'll look
20:21 < mmcgrath> skvidal: thanks
20:21 < mmcgrath> G: I noticed that too. haven't figured out why yet
20:21 < skvidal> okay
20:21 < skvidal> in the case of app6
20:21 < mmcgrath> I'd think it'd be happening on proxy2 as well but just isn't.
20:22 < skvidal> it is b/c it has neve rbeen signed
20:22 < mmcgrath> skvidal: try tummy1
20:22 < ricky> defunct func :-)
20:22 < ricky> (process, that is)
20:22 < skvidal> ricky: hardly
20:22 * lmacken just opened https://fedorahosted.org/func/ticket/60
20:22 < mmcgrath> anywho, looks like skvidal is looking into that.
20:22 < skvidal> I don't think app6 can reach puppet1 actually
20:22 -!- mmcgrath changed the topic of #fedora-meeting to: /mnt/koji
20:22 < skvidal> ah. wait
20:23 < ricky> Yuh-oh :-(
20:23 < G> skvidal: but the other day, it was proxy5/app5 that was going nuts, app6 was fine
20:23 < skvidal> has app6 been reinstalled recently?
20:23 < mmcgrath> f13: did you have a chance to look at my email earlier?
20:23 < mmcgrath> dgilmore: I saw you responded.
20:23 < mmcgrath> this is something I'd like to have figured out sometime soon
20:23 < ricky> skvidal: Yeah, Oct 5th
20:23 < skvidal> ok
20:23 < skvidal> one sec
20:24 < f13> mmcgrath: I forwarded it to my manager
20:24 < f13> mmcgrath: aka the purse holder.
20:24 -!- rahul_b [n=rbhalera(a)123.201.121.71] has joined #fedora-meeting
20:24 < mmcgrath> f13: k.
20:25 < f13> mmcgrath: but I agree with dgilmore, continued garbage collection + continued growth is the plan.
20:25 < G> whats the backstory here?
20:25 < mmcgrath> Depending on time frames and stuff we may have more options for storage though I suspect they'll also be more expensive.
20:25 < mmcgrath> G: at our current rate of growth we'll run out of room on /mnt/koji in about 13 months.
20:25 < f13> mmcgrath: I think we can gain back some storage by manually garbage collecting everything with the old gpg sigs
20:25 < f13> at least everything that we've resigned with new sigs
20:25 < mmcgrath> which is still a year away, but budgets for that time are due soon so we're just trying to get a good grasp on it and not let it sneak up on us.
20:25 < G> f13: +1
20:26 < G> f13: except, wouldn't we want to keep everything that was on the original CDs/DVDs
20:26 < mmcgrath> f13: k
20:26 < mmcgrath> G: why's that?
20:26 < mmcgrath> My take on it is if there's not a legal reason to keep that stuff, lets get rid of it. I'm not sure what releng's take is on it though
20:27 < G> mmcgrath: I'm not sure, I'm just thinking along the lines of we are still distributing that content....
20:27 < mmcgrath> f13: are we aware of any legal issues there?
20:28 * mmcgrath isn't sure what the law requires wrt binaries
20:28 -!- rdieter is now known as rdieter_away
20:28 < mmcgrath> well, either way its not a pressing need. Something ew can look at later.
20:28 < mmcgrath> we've got time right now but it always takes months to get these things priced out and installed and such.
20:29 < G> mmcgrath: so how much extra storage do you reckon we need?
20:29 < mmcgrath> f13: one thing to keep in mind when talking to your manager is when the new one gets purchased we'll have a 10T tray that still has a good year and a half of support on it if you guys need it for anything.
20:29 < mmcgrath> we can always ship it.
20:29 < mmcgrath> G: thats a good question. Its just a matter of $$ really.
20:29 < mmcgrath> at this point I'm pretty confident we'll fill up whatever we purchase.
20:29 < G> heh
20:29 * dgilmore is here
20:30 < mmcgrath> dgilmore: f13: really though do we want to try to target a sustainable solution or are we going to stick with "grow forever"?
20:30 < mmcgrath> well. I know what I want :) but what do you guys think we're actually going to do?
20:30 -!- greenlion [n=greenlio@fedora/greenlion] has quit "Ухожу"
20:31 < dgilmore> mmcgrath: i think we should look at purging old releases
20:31 -!- rdieter_away is now known as rdieter
20:31 < mmcgrath> at this point thats only FC6 and F7 right?
20:31 * mmcgrath can't remember if FC6 got on there or not.
20:31 < dgilmore> mmcgrath: so things that only shipped with F-9 could be removed
20:31 < skvidal> on archive?
20:31 < G> mmcgrath: or if we wait a couple of months, add F8 :)
20:32 < mmcgrath> skvidal: /mnt/koji/
20:32 < skvidal> oh
20:32 < dgilmore> mmcgrath: rawhide as at when we started with koji was there
20:32 < mmcgrath> perhaps we need a rule for /mnt/koji like we have with our releases
20:33 < mmcgrath> releases are n+1+1 month.
20:33 < pvangundy> i think this is something that needs to be nailed down because it's hard to move on with other projects when we're still deciding what we will hold on to and what we don't need anymore. A policy needs to be in place.
20:33 < mmcgrath> maybe /mnt/koji will be n+2 or something
20:33 < dgilmore> mmcgrath: we still ship some packages that were imported at the start
20:34 < mmcgrath> pvangundy: "it's hard to move on with other projects when we're still deciding what we will hold on to and what we don't need anymore." sorry I didn't follow how this is blocking other projects.
20:34 -!- rharrison [n=rusharri@nat/cisco/x-14e340d28892a016] has left #fedora-meeting ["Leaving"]
20:34 < G> neither
20:34 -!- rdieter is now known as rdieter_away
20:34 < pvangundy> planning would be the better word. ie, purchasing
20:34 < G> this is dedicated storage for koji
20:34 < mmcgrath> pvangundy: ah
20:34 < pvangundy> sorry
20:35 < mmcgrath> no worries, yeah.
20:35 < mmcgrath> f13 seems to be distracted. we can go back to this.
20:35 < mmcgrath> 13 months is still a ways away. but getting a budget estimate is important.
20:35 < f13> mmcgrath: we'll keep them on the master mirror until we shuffle them off to archive, but they don't need to live in koji itself.
20:36 < f13> mmcgrath: g: the signed header will be there and as long as the unsigned rpm is still there we can always re-create the signed version
20:36 < mmcgrath> f13: k
20:36 < G> f13: good point
20:36 < f13> mmcgrath: I think we'll pick a certain age of Fedora releases to no longer keep in Koji
20:36 < G> do we garbage collect old buildlogs?
20:36 < pvangundy> sorry guys, I have to head out early. I know it will be hard to run the meeting without me but $DAYJOB calls. ;)
20:37 -!- pvangundy [n=pvangund(a)host-216-153-209-2.man.choiceone.net] has quit "Leaving"
20:37 < mmcgrath> G: I'm not sure
20:37 < G> some of them are quite big iirc
20:38 * ricky remembers the infinite looping fun :-)
20:38 < mmcgrath> dgilmore: f13: can one of you give a rundown of exactly what the gc does?
20:38 -!- mbacovsk_ [n=mbacovsk(a)okr2fw.topnet.cz] has joined #fedora-meeting
20:38 < dgilmore> mmcgrath: it untags packages when there is more than 3 builds for the tag
20:39 < dgilmore> it then goes though and moves them to a temporary tag
20:39 -!- cassmodiah [n=cass@fedora/cassmodiah] has quit Remote closed the connection
20:39 < mmcgrath> what does a "package" consist of?
20:39 < dgilmore> once there in the temporary tag for 3 weeks it unlinks them
20:39 < mmcgrath> just the rpm? or the logs too
20:39 < dgilmore> mmcgrath: a build
20:39 < dgilmore> i think its all
20:39 < f13> teh logs too IIRC
20:39 < f13> the only thing that should be left is info in the db itself

20:45 < mmcgrath> excellent.
20:45 < G> mmcgrath: not sure, they were kinda placed wrong
20:45 < mmcgrath> where should they have been placed?
20:46 < mmcgrath> well, we still need training for all that
20:46 < G> mmcgrath: not in a template applied to every machine :)
20:46 < G> mmcgrath: agreed, I'm planning on doing that soon
20:46 < mmcgrath> it was in the proxy template applied only to proxy servers :)
20:46 < mmcgrath> even when we added proxy5 it automatically picked it up :)
20:46 < G> mmcgrath: I thought it was applied to the apache template

I want join in the Fedora Sysadmin Group
by Saint.AK
hi,all
I am a fedora end user and I also run fedora server.
My job is aslo like a sysadmin.we use script & other tools to monitor
thousands servers, making sure that the apps on them are stable and web end
user can use them freely.
I am familar with shell script ,apache(balancer),tomcat,linux,and some perl
script not very complex.
Frankly speaking ,I do not have much network experience, and I still learn.
I have used fedora/redhat for nearly 9 years, I want to give a hand to you,
if you think I am able to do this :)
sorry for my poor English:(

Change freeze request: /etc/resolv.conf on backup1, bacula-dir.conf
by Ricky Zhou
The search list on backup1 currently looks like:
search fedora.phx.redhat.com
I'd like to change it to:
search fedora.phx.redhat.com vpn.fedoraproject.org fedoraproject.org
I'd also like to change the address under the Storage blocks in
modules/bacula/templates/bacula-dir.conf.erb to use backup1 instead of
backup1.fedora.phx.redhat.com (this should make backups over the VPN
work). Here's what the patch would look like:
diff --git a/modules/bacula/templates/bacula-dir.conf.erb b/modules/bacula/templates/bacula-dir.conf.erb
index 2d0a383..a1fe4fd 100644

We'd have to make sure that the search lists for all of our backed up
hosts are setup to make backup1 go to the right place (.vpn.fp.o for
external, .fedora.phx.redhat.com for internal)
Can I get two +1s for these (do these changes seem safe enough to do
now)?
Thanks,
Ricky

oops sorry.
by Dennis Gilmore
i forgot we are in the infrastructure freeze, and made a change.
We were using the default koji-gc config file which sent out email from "Koji
Build System <buildsys(a)example.com>"
i added the config to puppet and set the email to "Koji Build System
<buildsys(a)fedoraproject.org>"
can i please get a pair of +1's for this. and a slap for being bad.
