Puppet Talk on FUDCon
by Jeroen van Meeuwen 26 Dec '08

26 Dec '08

Hi, I'm planning a Puppet (Config. Mgmt.) BarCamp session on FUDCon in Boston, but right now I'm thinking we may as well attach a HackFest session or two to see if we can implement some of the stuff that puppet does but the Fedora Infrastructure doesn't use (yet), or otherwise improve the puppet infrastructure we use. It should be a fairly interesting set of sessions since the Fedora Infrastructure team has been working with puppet for quite a while now, as have I but in many different organizations. This has driven me to come up with puppetmanaged.org[1], a collection of puppet modules primarily focused on Red Hat- and Fedora- based systems, and a way to share those modules amongst a larger audience. I guess we'll be talking about using those modules as well, or improving them so that they meet the requirements of Fedora Infrastructure, or applying them to Fedora's puppet infra, maybe. Additionally, the modules on puppetmanaged.org are based around a 3-way staging model, that allows you to distinguish between development, testing and production environments, as well as set a "standard" for overriding and/or extending the modules with customized manifests, and storing configurations in a database (exported resources for those of you familiar with them). With that functionality, the puppetmaster on puppetmanaged.org now manages nodes in different organizations -with, of course, very different profiles, needs and expectations-, allows "satellite" puppetmasters to be deployed in an organization (satellite puppetmasters themselves are managed by master.puppetmanaged.org but manage *.organization.tld nodes). My experience with puppet has also allowed me to organize workshops for customers, create a good reader[2] in the process, and (co-)maintaining the entire puppet/ruby stack in Fedora and EPEL. Needless to say, development paths of Fedora Infra's puppet and puppetmanaged.org have never aligned and as such -at FUDCon- I think we've got the opportunity to review each other setup and see what it is we can use/learn. If you have any questions, remarks or ideas to talk about during FUDCon -whether you can make it or not-, I'd like to hear about them. I'll hopefully see those of you attending FUDCon! Kind regards, Jeroen van Meeuwen -kanarip [1] http://git.puppetmanaged.org/ [2] http://www.kanarip.com/courses/puppet/puppet.pdf

I get following rsync errors on syncing fedora-secondary on the last few runs: rsync: send_files failed to open "/development/sparc/os/images/.initrd.img.pupy3y" (in fedora-secondary): Permission denied (13) rsync: send_files failed to open "/releases/9/Everything/source/SRPMS/.supertuxkart-0.4-1.fc9.src.rpm.omf19j" (in fedora-secondary): Permission denied (13) rsync: send_files failed to open "/releases/test/9-Beta/Fedora/source/SRPMS/.geronimo-specs-1.0-1.M2.2jpp.12.src.rpm.quHnuo" (in fedora-secondary): Permission denied (13) Maybe someone can delete those files. Thanks! Adrian

Introduction - Ronald McCormick
by Ronald A. McCormick 25 Dec '08

25 Dec '08

Hello all, I figured I would drop a line and introduce myself. I have been a linux user since the TAMU 0.12 distro days and a Redhat user since the Redhat 4 days. I am a Network and Systems Engineer who has worked looking to contribute where I can. I have experience administering and engineering distributed computing clusters in a real-time environment. I was responsible for creating a custom distribution for use in an embedded product for my company. I am pretty good at hacking bash and php which I use to automate most tasks. You can consider me a generalist looking to get more involved. In past lives, I have done system engineering for an MMO game. I have engineered cable modem networks, and worked on the architecture team of a large corporate distributed computing environment. I currently support an MMO game client on multiple platforms. (I did the port to two of the three supported platforms) I also do network engineering on a Tollway in my state.

Outage Notification - 2008-12-24 14:00 UTC
by Mike McGrath 24 Dec '08

24 Dec '08

There will be an outage starting at 2008-12-24 14:00 UTC UTC, which will last approximately ? hours. To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto or run: date -d '2008-12-24 14:00 UTC' Affected Services: Buildsystem DNS Fedora Talk Collaboration services (Gobby) Unaffected Services: CVS / Source Control Database Fedora Hosted Fedora People Mail Mirror System Torrent Translation Services Websites Ticket Link: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1090 Reason for Outage: serverbeach1-3 went out this morning. This happened a month ago from electrical issues but there's no word on if this is the same thing or related to that in any way. Nigel has submitted a ticket to them to get it looked at, generally they are very quick about fixing this, I'd be surprised if this took more then an hour. Having said that, we have no information so the whole building might have fallen into a sink hole or something. Contact Information: Please join #fedora-admin in irc.freenode.net or respond to this email to track the status of this outage.

We've got problems
by Mike McGrath 24 Dec '08

24 Dec '08

Hey everyone, so there's lots or projects going on right now and I'm going to spend some time to prioritize them and hopefully get help on them. The wiki: We need to upgrade the wiki, like yesterday. We're on an unsupported branch right now. Whats the hangup? HNP is our ACL plugin. Some might remember when we said "A wiki is not a CMS" well, now we're being screwed by it. It has been made clear to us that certain pages in the wiki must A) stay on the wiki and B) be editable by only a subset of people. HNP is not supported by newer versions of mediawiki. Ticket #1072 Koji: The koji database is borked right now. We're getting by but its a ticking timebomb. There was some data corruption with our backplane issues this last week. Damaged portions equal no more then 160K at this point (I'm still doing other measurements). This is less then .0002% of the data of that database. The problem is that when I try to do dumps of the data pgsql fails. This is a must fix. Ticket #1069 nfs1: NFS1's IO load is just not right. Something isn't behaving as it should and I'm just not sure whats going on there yet. We need to do a full examination and trend of it. This involves moving cvs1 to another location and involves moving releng2 to xen1 to help ease some load. Additionally we need to move kojipkgs1 to another location (probably xen1) and enable a proper caching for it. We also need to finally get a valid backup of nfs1. This still hasn't happened. Its difficult to test because of the high load on the disks, backups take 4+ days. lots of things can go wrong during that time. Tickets: #1061, #1074, #1075, #1076. backup2: DR backups is a project I've been trying to get in shape. its general there, needs some polish. The dr user is there. But an audit and verification of everything we need to back up needs to be done. Ticket: #1077 CSRF: CSRF is a pretty serious deal, toshio is working on it but I'm sure he can use some help. Ticket: #992 FAS: Ricky has been working on some FAS stuff but some outstanding systems must be implemented quickly particularly as it relates to stale users. We need to get the password expiration stuff in, and we need to document and define what each user state means and how it will relate to other applications. FAS: #83 If you don't have access to the systems of this stuff, we likely won't be able to sponsor and train you in time to get this stuff done. Sorry, but you can still look at the code issues mentioned above or test alternatives for the wiki. If you have access and are working on something else, if you are able please stop doing that thing and work on one of the above issues. Even after these issues are done I've got a good 6 months of stuff backed up before new things can be done. We've literally exploded in size. Over the last two years the services, nodes, etc that we support has grown over 10 times and our core team has only grown by a few members. We're doing better then most OSS communities out there, but we can do better. -Mike

Noisy cron
by Jesse Keating 23 Dec '08

23 Dec '08

Could somebody start looking into the noisy cron jobs? We seem to have quite a few that are failing or spitting unnecessary text out into email. Could be a fun project for somebody looking to get familiar with Infrastructure, since the jobs seem to span all parts of our realm. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
