git.centos.org downtime
by Karanbir Singh 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

hi, Just a heads up that there is going to be a potential git.centos.org downtime for 4 hrs starting at 10:00 AM UTC Monday 22nd Aug 2016; I am hoping to get some maint work done that should not impact services, but it might degrade things for a few hours. During this time, you can find us in #centos-devel on irc.freenode.net if there are any issues.

[Virt] Backport of a qemu fix for /dev/kvm permissions ?
by David Moreau Simard 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

Hi, To make a long story short, in certain circumstances, the /dev/kvm file can sometimes have permissions that do not allow it to be used properly [1]. This claims to have been fixed in qemu-2.3.0-1.fc22. I was wondering if we should expect that fix to land in the qemu-kvm-ev-2.3.0* packages provided by the virt SIG repo ? I know for a fact the patch is not there (yet) right now: (on Fedora): $ rpm -q --scripts qemu-system-x86 postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh): # Default /dev/kvm permissions are 660, we install a udev rule changing that # to 666. However trying to trigger the re-permissioning via udev has been # a neverending source of trouble, so we just force it with chmod. For # more info see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=950436 chmod --quiet 666 /dev/kvm || : (with latest qemu-kvm-ev from CentOS SIG repo): $ rpm -qp --scripts qemu-kvm-ev-2.3.0-31.el7_2.16.1.x86_64.rpm postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh): # load kvm modules now, so we can make sure no reboot is needed. # If there's already a kvm module installed, we don't mess with it sh /etc/sysconfig/modules/kvm.modules &> /dev/null || : udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=misc --sysname-match=kvm --action=add || : ...

[OpsTools] oVirt Metrics Store
by Yedidyah Bar David 17 Aug '16

17 Aug '16

Hi all, The oVirt project is looking at using some of the tools worked on by the OpsTools SIG. More details can be found at [1]. We are currently looking at ElasticSearch and Logstash, and at Kibana and Grafana. This effort is lead by Shirly Radco, our BI engineer. I am a member of the integration-development team, and can try helping with packaging etc. I'll have a look at the current status of packaging of these tools and might send more emails with specific questions/issues as needed.

[opstools] fluentd packaging
by Lars Kellogg-Stedman 17 Aug '16

17 Aug '16

In working with the fluentd packaging from the opstools sig, I think we need to make at least two changes: - For type=tail sources, fluentd really wants a pos_file parameter to track the file position. It would be helpful if we created /run/fluentd via /etc/tmpfiles.d as a common location for storing these files. - I think that the *_secure_forward plugins (which permit using ssl for communication between a fluentd client and a collector) are going to be a necessity for just about everybody, so these should probably be packaged in manner similar to the elasticsearch plugin. -- Lars Kellogg-Stedman <lars(a)redhat.com> | larsks @ {freenode,twitter,github} Cloud Engineering / OpenStack | http://blog.oddbit.com/

Plans for SSO across centos.org subdomains?
by Laurentiu Pancescu 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

Are there any plans for enabling single-sign-on between the different centos.org subdomains? Perhaps at least between accounts and bugs, if not also cbs or others? I remember seeing how SSO can work seamlessly in a big company - the Windows login and a client cert enabled access to pretty much everything, from web apps like HR, to different servers, even unlocking the LAN port you were connected to. This is highly practical when it works. Then again, I was in R&D (not in IT, which had to configure the whole thing). :) Regards, Laurențiu

Ceph Jewel packaging in CentOS Storage SIG
by Emilien Macchi 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

Hi, I'm working on openstack/puppet-ceph module to deploy Ceph Jewel for OpenStack TripleO and Red Hat Director (OpenStack installers). I'm very interested to know when I'll be able to download Jewel packages from SIG on x84_64: buildlogs.centos.org/centos/7/storage/x86_64/ceph-jewel/ currently does not contain Ceph packages. Using ceph.com repositories for us is not optimal as we try to use a maximum of CentOS supported repositories, like we do for OpenStack. Thanks, -- Emilien Macchi

Packaging the VirtualBox Guest Additions?
by Laurentiu Pancescu 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

We occasionaly get complaints from users that our official Vagrant images do not include the VirtualBox Guest Additions. We do not include them because the CentOS repositories do not have any package for VirtualBox. Packaging it would probably require a significant amount of work - the Debian source package shows quite a number of first-level dependencies, probably not all already available in CentOS. [1] I'm also not sure if packaging the full VirtualBox is even desirable. [2] The alternative would be to package just the Guest Additions (which have considerably fewer build dependencies), to be able to include them in the Vagrant images. Two VirtualBox developers told me in #vbox-devel that the source code already supports building just the Guest Additions, and it's actually used for generating the official download images: one should simply invoke "kmk VBOX_ONLY_ADDITIONS=1", or, I quote: 'kmk VBOX_ONLY_ADDITIONS=1 packing to produce the ISO, which will only be for one platform and bit count.' They also believe we should be able to get away with simply providing the binary modules, since our kernels have a stable ABI (the upstream Guest Additions ISO, as well as the Debian packages, require DKMS and the development tools and kernel headers, which would considerably increase the size of our Vagrant images). We would probably need to incorporate some functionality from their installer at RPM build time, to get just the binary modules.
