CPE Weekly Update – Week 33 2022
by Michal Konecny 19 Aug '22

19 Aug '22

Hi everyone, This is a weekly report from the CPE (Community Platform Engineering) Team. If you have any questions or feedback, please respond to this report or contact us on #redhat-cpe channel on libera.chat (https://libera.chat/) Week: 15th August - 19th August 2022 If you wish to read this in form of a blog post, check the post on Fedora community blog: https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/cpe-weekly-update---week-33-2022/ # Highlights of the week ## Infrastructure & Release Engineering Goal of this Initiative ----------------------- Purpose of this team is to take care of day to day business regarding CentOS and Fedora Infrastructure and Fedora release engineering work. It’s responsible for services running in Fedora and CentOS infrastructure and preparing things for the new Fedora release (mirrors, mass branching, new namespaces etc.). The ARC (which is a subset of the team) investigates possible initiatives that CPE might take on. Link to planning board: https://zlopez.fedorapeople.org/I&R-2022-08-17.pdf Link to docs: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/infra/ Update ------ ### Fedora Infra * Mass update/reboot cycle this week (stg/nonoutage done, outage later today) * Freeze for f37 beta starts next week ### CentOS Infra including CentOS CI * Discussion around the CentOS Stream infra hand over * New tasks for the CI infra migration * S3 bucket for the Stream CoreOS effort * Some infra projects moved from gitea to gitlab ### Release Engineering * Openh264 composes fo f36,37,38 send to cisco * Package retirement issues after the branching, thanks to human error ## CentOS Stream Goal of this Initiative ----------------------- This initiative is working on CentOS Stream/Emerging RHEL to make this new distribution a reality. The goal of this initiative is to prepare the ecosystem for the new CentOS Stream. Updates ------- * Face to face meeting in Boston. * Penultimate parts of Module process sync. Between el8 and el9. ## EPEL Goal of this initiative ----------------------- Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (or EPEL) is a Fedora Special Interest Group that creates, maintains, and manages a high quality set of additional packages for Enterprise Linux, including, but not limited to, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS and Scientific Linux (SL), Oracle Linux (OL). EPEL packages are usually based on their Fedora counterparts and will never conflict with or replace packages in the base Enterprise Linux distributions. EPEL uses much of the same infrastructure as Fedora, including buildsystem, bugzilla instance, updates manager, mirror manager and more. Updates ------- * EPEL9 is up to 7339 (+106) packages from 3278 (+71) source packages * Found the bloaty package was uninstallable because of a libre2 soname fix, rebuilding it fixed the issue. ## FMN replacement Goal of this initiative ----------------------- FMN (Fedora-Messaging-Notification) is a web application allowing users to create filters on messages sent to (currently) fedmsg and forward these as notifications on to email or IRC. The goal of the initiative is mainly to add fedora-messaging schemas, create a new UI for a better user experience and create a new service to triage incoming messages to reduce the current message delivery lag problem. Community will profit from speedier notifications based on own preferences (IRC, Matrix, Email), unified fedora project to one message service and human-readable results in Datagrepper. Also, CPE tech debt will be significantly reduced by dropping the maintenance of fedmsg altogether. Updates ------- * Frontend * Use CoreUI components * Set up i18n * Initial version of a “New Rule” page * Authentication integration FE/BE (ongoing) * Backend: SQLAlchemy integration (ongoing)) Kindest regards, CPE Team

Changes to CentOS CI: reminder of Phase 1 and 2
by Camila Granella 16 Aug '22

16 Aug '22

Hello everyone, This is a friendly reminder of the current and upcoming status of CentOS CI changes (check [1]). Projects that opted-in for continuing on CentOS CI have been migrated, and the new Duffy API is available. With that, *phase 0 has been completed*. Regarding *phase 1*, we are still working on a permanent fix for the DB Concurrency issues [2]. Also, as for our OpenShift new deployment, we have a staging environment up and running, and it should be available at the beginning of September 2022. In October 2022 we begin *phase 2* when we will work through the following items (these were also previously communicated in [1]): - legacy/compatibility API endpoint will handover EC2 instances instead of local seamicro nodes (VMs vs bare metal) - bare-metal options will be available through the new API only - legacy seamicro and aarch64/ThunderX hardware are decommissioned - only remaining "on-premises" option is ppc64le (local cloud)Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns The final deadline for decommissioning the old infrastructure (*phase 3*) is *December 2022*. We will be communicating further until then, and meanwhile, reach out to any of us in case you have any questions. Regards, [1] [ci-users] Changes on CentOS CI and next steps: https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/ci-users/2022-June/004547.html [2] DB Concurrency issues: https://github.com/CentOS/duffy/issues/523 -- Camila Granella Associate Manager, Software Engineering Red Hat <https://www.redhat.com/> @Red Hat <https://twitter.com/redhat> Red Hat <https://www.linkedin.com/company/red-hat> Red Hat <https://www.facebook.com/RedHatInc> <https://www.redhat.com/>

infra outage : Stream 9 builsystem
by Fabian Arrotin 11 Aug '22

11 Aug '22

Hi, We got some monitoring alerts that CentOS Stream 9 build infra is actually unreachable. We have an internal ticket open at Red Hat to investigate the issue (seems network related) If you're directly consuming pkgs from that infra (like https://kojihub.stream.centos.org) it's actually unreachable. That means that it also impacts downstream buildsystems, like https://cbs.centos.org, but only if you asked to consume directly pkgs from teh CentOS Stream 9 buildroot. For SIGs only building against content from mirror.stream.centos.org, builds should continue to work. We'll update this thread when we'll have more information. -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | twitter: @arrfab

[Infra] - Planned outage : cbs.centos.org
by Fabian Arrotin 08 Aug '22

08 Aug '22

We recently received some RFEs for new features for our Community Build System (aka https://cbs.centos.org) on our tracker (https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issues) and some were added in upstream koji projects. So we'll upgrade our koji build environment to latest koji version 1.29.1 (and get same version deployed after for Stream build env too) to then be able to track/test new features for SIGs. Migration is scheduled for """"Monday August 8th, 7:00 am UTC time"""". You can convert to local time with $(date -d '2022-08-08 07:00 UTC') The expected "downtime" is estimated to ~5 minutes , time needed for ansible to shutdown kojid builders, upgrade kojihub (cbs.centos.org) run db schema upgrade, restart kojihub and then kojid builders. Thanks for your understanding and patience. on behalf of the Infra team, -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | twitter: @arrfab

Alternate Images - Proposed SIG
by Troy Dawson 04 Aug '22

04 Aug '22

Following the CentOS "Setting up a new SIG"[1] instructions I am opening a new topic about creating a new CentOS SIG. I have initially filled out several sections that are in other SIG pages. These are all open for discussion. Goals: The Alternate Images SIG's goal will be to build and provide alternate iso images for CentOS Stream. What is in Scope: - Live Images (Previously known as LiveDVD, LiveCD) -- Examples: --- Live Desktops (KDE / GNOME / XFCE / Mate ) --- Live Rescue - Alternate Install Images -- Examples: --- Minimum install iso (doesn't need the network, but almost as small as the boot.iso) --- KDE install iso (has epel enabled, and packages to install a working kde desktop) - Repo's that are compatible with CentOS Stream, and follow the Fedora licensing policy. What is not in Scope: - Containers - Raw / QCow / AWS - Iso images that are bigger than 4 Gig. (This number can be adjusted after the SIG is formed) - Repo's that are not compatible with CentOS Stream, or do not follow the Fedora licensing policy. Collaboration: We plan on working with various Desktop SIG's, the Fedora minimization team, and any other group that wants custom iso's. Deliverables: - Documentation along with configuration (kickstarts and scripts) that will allow members to create their alternate images. - Alternate images in a publically downloadable area -- Images will be rebuilt, or retired, a minimum of every three months. Leadership: I (Troy Dawson) will be the initial Lead of the SIG. After (or while) the SIG is formed we will decide if we want a co-chair leadership and/or how often the leadership is elected. Troy Dawson [1] - https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup#Setting_up_a_new_SIG
