Will Xen4Centos on CentOS 6 be supported all the way through its EOL (November 30th, 2020)? If not when will it stop being supported/updated under this SIG? Thanks. -Gene

status for centos-release-docker and docker packages
by Lokesh Mandvekar 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

I have rpm sources for centos-release-docker at https://github.com/CentOS-virt7/centos-release-docker Some updated packages available on centos-docker-common-testing branch are: docker: http://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=9932 atomic: http://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=10046 docker-distribution: http://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=9950 I think I need to have the docker testing packages available on buildlogs.c.o. That's probably a task for kb, arrfab? Let me know what next. -- Lokesh Freenode: lsm5 GPG: 0xC7C3A0DD

cloud-init issue w/ GenericCloud image
by Tom Sorensen 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

I'm using the C7.2 GenericCloud image with KVM and am trying to inject my own ssh key by adding it to /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d: sudo virt-customize --upload ~/local/cloud/20_centos_sshkey.cfg:/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/20_centos_sshkey.cfg -d c7-template Contents of the file: #cloud-config ssh_authorized_keys: - ssh-rsa [mysshkeyhere] The good news is that it puts something in the authorized_keys file (which does not occur without it). The bad news is it's complete garbage (from guestfish) -- http://pastebin.centos.org/42526/ Any suggestion on either how to fix this or a better way to inject the key for this usage?

USB 3.0 in qemu-kvm-0.12
by Robert Nichols 30 Mar '16

30 Mar '16

I suspect I know the answer here, but is qemu-kvm-0.12 simply incapable of passing a USB 3.0 device to a guest? USB 2 devices work fine, but USB 3 -- nothing. USB 3.0 works fine in the host, of course. Currently using qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.479.el6_7.4.x86_64 in CentOS 6.7. I'm guessing I have to upgrade to CentOS 7 to pass USB 3.0 devices to the guest. Hoping to avoid that just now. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.

KVM networking issue
by Kevin Ross 25 Mar '16

25 Mar '16

Hi folks, I posted this question to the KVM list, but I thought I'd try here too--sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, can you please direct me to the correct forum or list if so, thanks! I'm working on a network security project, using KVM installed on CentOS 6.7 through yum. I have a VM with the goal of using this as a network appliance, and two other VMs, one simulating an attack node and the other simulating a vulnerable webapp. These are all connected to the same internal private network set up in KVM. The idea with the network appliance VM is to have it act as if it's connected to a network tap so it can see the traffic between the other two VMs. I'm not able to see the traffic currently and would appreciate your help or suggestions to see if this is possible and how I can set this up if so. I came across some information online suggesting to have the interfaces in promiscuous mode, including the virtual NIC for the private network, and I've tried all combinations. Thanks for any help you can offer! Thanks, Kevin -- sedecim(a)gmail.com

ANNOUNCEMENT: centos-release-xen switching to 4.6 later this week
by George Dunlap 22 Mar '16

22 Mar '16

In preparation for XSA-172, due to be made public next week (29 March), as discussed previously, I'm going to be updating the centos-release-xen package to point to Xen 4.6 rather than 4.4. As a reminder, you can "pin" your installation to Xen 4.4 by installing centos-release-xen-44 and then removing centos-release-xen. Also, I will not be applying any more patches to the Xen 4.4 packages. I will, however, review and push through the build system pull requests sent to https://github.com/CentOS-virt7/xen. -George
