List membership

Hi All, tldr: I'm not sure how to unsubscribe. Please help me. I had subscribed to this list some time ago, and then unsubscribed (or least I think I unsubscribed) within the past few months. I think that perhaps my email address still got pulled into the account setup under the new HyperKitty platform, though, as I've started getting emails again, and I don't know how to unsubscribe. I hate to be the guy who sends a note to the list that says, "Please unsubscribe me," but I guess that's what I'm doing. I know that I've never set up a subscription to this mailing list using Google or Fedora accounts, so I'm not sure how to proceed. Can anyone help? Jim

Outage Report: ibiblio02.fedoraproject.org/proxy04.fedoraproject.org
by Stephen John Smoogen 19 Aug '15

19 Aug '15

1. What happened? A new hardware server was put into our sponsor site Ibiblio (ibiblio.org) and we were able to move servers around to a) take down ibiblio01.fedoraproject.org and b) rebuild ibiblio02 to RHEL-7. During this rebuild the proxy04.fedoraproject.org server was moved according to the following steps: a. take proxy04.fedoraproject.org out of dns b. turn off old proxy04 on ibiblio01 c. build proxy04 on new server. d. put proxy04 back into DNS. Step c had multiple problems that needed to be debugged which extended the outage time beyond the original 2 hours. Problem one was that the host system had come up thinking it was inside of PHX2 and was trying to reach iscsi server inside. Problem two was that the configuration file referenced the wrong kickstart which caused additional downtime. Problem three ended up with some ordering problems in the general ansible playbook causing services to try to start before config files were copied over. Problem four was a new python-fedora was pushed out requiring a python-six which isn't in EL7 yet. These added up to going over the timeframe originally allocated. The final outage problem occurred after step D had been in place. Some files on the system had the wrong permissions and were causing parts of the website to be non-functional. This required taking the server out of DNS, redoing permissions and rebooting. At this time additional CPU and memory were added in case this was helpful. 2. What was affected? Some users experienced bad websites while the http server said it was up but was not able to serve pages. 3. How long was the outage? Rebuild of server was 4 hours due to rebuild problems. 4. What was the root cause? Multiple papercut problems extended the outage. A possible solution to those would be to run a continual deployment mode of building a dev proxy system, but that is outside the scope of this email. A permissions problem on files caused them not to be readable. Running a script to fix permissions fixed the problem. -- Stephen J Smoogen.

Flock discussions
by Kevin Fenzi 19 Aug '15

19 Aug '15

We talked about a number of things at our flock meeting, and a few things we didn't get to. Here's a summary. Please chime in if you think I summarized wrong or you would like to add things or revist something. ;) * Jenkins - Finish migrating to the new cloud instance with the packaged jenkins - Will will weaken the wording on the wiki page. We still don't want people to depend on our jenkins for release critical stuff, but we will want it to be more supported. - Add nagios checks so we know when it's down/needing fixing. * Finishing the puppet migration - This week I will create the lockbox01 replacement (batcave01). - Once we have that all ansiblized and ready, we will change it's ip's to the current lockbox01 ips. - Any machines still in puppet at that point will be marked "Don't touch" and we will try and get them migrated. This will likely be collab03 (mailing lists migrating off it to mailman01), and hosted03 (until we finish rhel7 packaging work and migrate it). - gobby (or something better if we can find it) will migrate to some other host. * bodhi2 - Deploy tomorrow. - Once things are working we can retire releng04 and repele01 * Openstack plans: - Move all instances to new cloud - Add old cloud nodes to new cloud - Install two old nodes with openstack Icehouse - Upgrade the test instance to openstack Kilo(?) - Upgrade main cluster to Kilo * Continuous deployment - May not have enough advantages to actually do continuous deployment but the steps that enable it are useful - work on those steps and then revisit in 6 months - Automate ansible creation of new hosts - Automate deployment of our apps - Upgrade playbooks (Take service out - Automate sign and import of packages * Apprentice / on boarding discussion - * make a set of quests to point people to: * update CSI info * Update docs templates * others? * Review in meetings easyfixes. * Try and do a 'technical debt workdown' week after F23 is released. Possibly also try 'docs update' or the like. - Try one every 3 months or so. * Docker/container prototype * John Stanley containerized a sticky notes instance in the cloud for us to look at. Things we wanted to talk about, but did not get to: * Released app process and repos. We actually did talk about this, but didn't actually make any decisions. It sounded like we wanted apps to have all their dependencies in EPEL, but they could be in the infrastructure repo if they were fast moving? * FAS3. Whats the timeline for migration? * single-sign-on/single-sign out. * Auth protocol * Hubs development / prototyping Anything else? kevin

July status update for Fedora Infrastructure Apprentices
by Kevin Fenzi 17 Aug '15

17 Aug '15

Greetings. You are getting this email because you are in the 'fi-apprentice' group in the fedora account system (or are reading this on the infrastructure list). Feel free to reply just directly to me, or cc the infrastructure list for everyone to see and comment on. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Apprentice At the first of every month(or so), I am going to be sending out an email like this one. I would like feedback on how things are going for you. I'd like to ask for everyone to send me a quick reply with the following data or anything related you can think of that might help us make the apprentice program more useful. 0. Whats your fedora account system login? 1. Have you logged in and used your fi-apprentice membership to look at our machines/setup in the last month? Do you plan to? 2. Has it helped you decide any area you wish to focus on or contribute to more? 3. Have you looked at or been able to work on any of the fi-apprentice 'easyfix' tickets? https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/report/14 4. Do you still wish to be a member of the group? If not (for whatever reason) could you provide any hints to help others down the road? 5. Is there any help or communication or ideas you have that would help you do any of the above? 6. What do you find to be the hardest part of getting involved? Finding things to work on? Getting attention from others to help you? Finding tickets in your interest area? 7. Have you been able to make any weekly irc meetings? Do you find them helpful or interesting? 8. Have you logged into our Gobby instance and read/seen/added to our meeting agenda? https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Gobby 9. What was the last game you played? Any other general feedback is also quite welcome, including improvements to this email, the wiki page, etc. Any folks I do not hear from in the next week will be removed from the group. (Note that it's easy to be readded when you have time or whatever and it's nothing at all personal, we just want to keep the group up to date with active folks). Thanks, and looking forward to your feedback! kevin

Pagure for dist-git
by Pierre-Yves Chibon 15 Aug '15

15 Aug '15

Hi everyone, Over the last couple of days, I created a test cloud instance, copied over a big tarball containing all the git repos from dist-git and load them into pagure. The results is there: http://209.132.184.205/ As you can see, it has a little less than 19k projects while we have more than 22k in dist-git the reasons being: - I lost of git repos while adjusting the loading script - The loading script ignored all the project not having a PoC in pkgdb (ie: retired package) There is still some work to be done to get pagure in a state that it can be used for dist-git, but looking at it right now, it seems to be able to handle this large number of projects. If you are interested in working on adjusting pagure for dist-git, here are the current tickets I filled for this: https://pagure.io/pagure/issues?tags=pkgs.fp Pierre

Do Fedora apps follow some common UI design?
by Parag Nemade 15 Aug '15

15 Aug '15

Hi, This email is with reference to bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1252806, I reported against Copr UI. First question is do we follow some common UI designs for Fedora applications? What can be used for fas username links provided by some Fedora apps at top right corner? Also, do all apps shows footer on main page which also give information about which version that app is using? e.g. møte app is not showing from which source version its built/deployed. Regards, Parag Nemade.
