CPE Weekly Update – Week of October 18th – 22nd
by Michal Konecny 21 Oct '21

21 Oct '21

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/) If you wish to read in form of blog post, check the post on Fedora community blog: https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/cpe-weekly-update-week-of-october-1… # 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. Update ------ ### Fedora Infra * Fixed fasjson in stg (was stuck on a image pull) * Added 200GB to ostree netapp volume * Retired iddev and simple-koji-ci cloud instances * Declared the sssd bug fixed (hadn’t happened in 2 weeks) ### CentOS Infra including CentOS CI * Stream 9 available in CI (x86_64 only though) * Newer python-cicolient * Duffy2 hotfix for paramiko issue with el9 * Exploring options for secureboot for SIGs * Deploying Duffy Dev Lab for initiative * Business as usual (new tags created for SIGs, ….) ### Release Engineering * Updated critpath packages for all releases * F35 final RC request landed * Compose is finished with incomplete state armhfp container aarch64 KDE and failed ## 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 ------- * Work continues on Content Resolver buildroot support * We're now running repoclosure before we sync to the mirrors ## Datanommer/Datagrepper V.2 Goal of this Initiative ----------------------- The datanommer and datagrepper stacks are currently relying on fedmsg which we want to deprecate. These two applications need to be ported off fedmsg to fedora-messaging. As these applications are 'old-timers' in the fedora infrastructure, we would also like to look at optimizing the database or potentially redesigning it to better suit the current infrastructure needs. For a phase two, we would like to focus on a DB overhaul. Updates ------- * Import crashed because of a database schema design decision that didn’t account for the size of our messages, it's fixed and the import started again because the schema update on existing data would take a lot of time too. ETA is back to 70 days. ## CentOS Duffy CI Goal of this Initiative ----------------------- Duffy is a system within CentOS CI Infra which allows tenants to provision and access bare metal resources of multiple architectures for the purposes of CI testing. We need to add the ability to checkout VMs in CentOS CI in Duffy. We have OpenNebula hypervisor available, and have started developing playbooks which can be used to create VMs using the OpenNebula API, but due to the current state of how Duffy is deployed, we are blocked with new dev work to add the VM checkout functionality. Updates ------- * Took stock and decided to rewrite * Cleaned up branches * Boilerplate work Kindest regards, CPE Team

CentOS Stream 9 is available in CI infra for tenants/projects
by Fabian Arrotin 20 Oct '21

20 Oct '21

For people not following inititial infra ticket about this (https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issue/441) here is a quick status about CentOS Stream 9 availability in CI infra : Starting from today, each tenant in CI infra can request Stream 9 for the x86_64 architecture. Due to lack of compatible hardware for ppc64le, it's not available yet but we hope to be able to provide it before end of this year. aarch64 is on the list of architectures to be tested and added (more on that when it will be ready) We already updated the python-cicoclient to correct version on the previous Virtual Machines setup behind ci.centos.org but we still have (next on the list) to update the cico-workspace container/image to include newer python-cicoclient (see http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/infra/x86_64/infra-common/Packages/p/pyth…) that is used in the openshift/ocp 4 cluster Enjoy your tests on Stream 9 ! PS: at the infra side, we'll still have to also have an internal mirror returned by mirrormanager as it's actually using external mirrors, so dnf operations will be "slow" versus what you can see for 7/8/8-stream, but it's on the list -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | twitter: @arrfab

CentOS Stream 9 "launch" promotion
by Rich Bowen 13 Oct '21

13 Oct '21

We are now at the point in the CentOS Stream 9 process that we need to do some kind of a "launch" promotional effort, so that people are aware of the work that is being done here beyond the "Coming Soon" message on the download page. If you are willing to participate in this effort, we will be coordinating on the centos-promo mailing list - https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-promo - so if you're not subscribed, this is a good time to do so. We will be initially producing two things: * A blog post for blog.centos.org (and possibly one for a redhat.com property as well) * Web content that will go at centos.org/stream9 Initial notes about what we're creating are here: https://hackmd.io/RkOiWNmIQcWSubQ3emY0lg We would like to produce this content within the next month - end of November latest. Launching this content would be coordinated with launching the new visual/design work for our various websites. So ... y'all come help!

October CentOS Dojo - Event report
by Rich Bowen 11 Oct '21

11 Oct '21

Thanks to all who attended, and spoke at, last week's CentOS Dojo. We had 126 registrations, and 77% turnout. (Apparently average turnout is something like 51% for free virtual events) Our peak attendance at any one time was 51. Top countries by registered users United States 52 (41.26%) Poland 11 (8.73%) France 5 (3.96%) Belgium 4 (3.17%) Canada 4 (3.17%) Other 50 (39.71%) Top areas by attendees Hallway Track (Thursday) 47 Board of Directors AMA 47 What does Red Hat Want? 46 State of EPEL on CentOS 42 Modules - Love/Hate relationship 37 CentOS Stream and meeting the user requirements of Public Cl 30 All of the video from the event is now on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BULvfaOvc-M&list=PLuRtbOXpVDjCSvlyrEtctWVeX… The video, and some of the slides, are at https://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/October2021 I have more of the slides, and just need to get them listed there. We should have all of the slides this week. I expect the next CentOS Dojo to happen the week of FOSDEM. What's uncertain, at this point, of course, is whether FOSDEM will happen in person, and whether travel from the US to the EU will be a thing, so I'm going to give it a month or two before starting planning. Unless, of course, someone else steps up to plan the next one, which would be awesome. --Rich
