SIGs: Possibility to drop EOL content at 6.10 release time
by Anssi Johansson 02 Jul '18

02 Jul '18

RHEL 6.10 was released today and building CentOS 6.10 has just started. This would be an excellent time to remove any EOL software you may have floating around on mirror.centos.org. SIGs should explicitly state which content they want copied over from 6.9 to 6.10. I'd imagine that for example openstack-juno could be dropped because it went EOL in 2015-12-07 (so actually prior to CentOS 6.8's release..). Is there some other content that could be dropped? If SIGs want to transfer some of their packages from 6.9 to 6.10, please let hughesjr know. You can probably simply reply to this message to let people know of your decision. Content to be transferred over to 6.10 can be specified either by directory name, or by individual package names. There are also various centos-release-* packages in extras, http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6.9/extras/x86_64/Packages/ , perhaps some of those could be trimmed as well. You should also communicate to your users in advance that the EOL packages will disappear, and if necessary, instruct them to migrate to a newer supported version. Having instructions for that procedure published somewhere would be nice. The old content under 6.9, including any EOL content, will be archived to vault.centos.org, and that content will be available in the vault indefinitely. The 6.9 directory on mirror.centos.org will be emptied some time after 6.10 is released. For reference and inspiration, here are some directories from mirror.centos.org, including both up-to-date content and potentially EOL content. SIGs should review the list to make sure these directories can be copied over to 6.10 when that time comes. Making the decisions now would save a bit of time at 6.10 release time. cloud/x86_64/openstack-juno cloud/x86_64/openstack-juno/common sclo/x86_64/rh/devassist09 sclo/x86_64/rh/devtoolset-3 sclo/x86_64/rh/devtoolset-4 sclo/x86_64/rh/devtoolset-6 sclo/x86_64/rh/devtoolset-7 sclo/x86_64/rh/git19 sclo/x86_64/rh/httpd24 sclo/x86_64/rh/mariadb55 sclo/x86_64/rh/maven30 sclo/x86_64/rh/mongodb24 sclo/x86_64/rh/mysql55 sclo/x86_64/rh/nginx16 sclo/x86_64/rh/nodejs010 sclo/x86_64/rh/perl516 sclo/x86_64/rh/php54 sclo/x86_64/rh/php55 sclo/x86_64/rh/postgresql92 sclo/x86_64/rh/python27 sclo/x86_64/rh/python33 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-git29 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-java-common sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mariadb100 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mariadb101 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mariadb102 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-maven33 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mongodb26 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mongodb30upg sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mongodb32 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mongodb34 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mysql56 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-mysql57 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-nginx18 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-nginx110 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-nodejs4 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-nodejs6 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-passenger40 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-perl520 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-perl524 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-php56 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-php70 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-postgresql94 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-postgresql95 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-postgresql96 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-python34 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-python35 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-python36 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-redis32 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-ror41 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-ror42 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-ror50 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-ruby22 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-ruby23 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-ruby24 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-scala210 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-thermostat16 sclo/x86_64/rh/rh-varnish4 sclo/x86_64/rh/ror40 sclo/x86_64/rh/ruby193 sclo/x86_64/rh/ruby200 sclo/x86_64/rh/thermostat1 sclo/x86_64/rh/v8314 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-git25 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-git212 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-httpd24more sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-php54 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-php55 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-php56 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-php70 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-python27 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-python34 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-python35 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-ror42 sclo/x86_64/sclo/sclo-subversion19 storage/x86_64/gluster-3.6 storage/x86_64/gluster-3.7 storage/x86_64/gluster-3.8 storage/x86_64/gluster-3.9 storage/x86_64/gluster-3.10 storage/x86_64/gluster-3.12 storage/x86_64/gluster-3.13 storage/x86_64/gluster-4.0 storage/x86_64/gluster-4.1 virt/x86_64/xen-44 virt/x86_64/xen-46 virt/x86_64/xen-48

Joining CentOS Storage SIG
by Saravanakumar Arumugam 29 Jun '18

29 Jun '18

Hi, I would like to be part of CentOS Storage SIG. I am from GlusterFS background, but I can contribute to package other solutions too. It will be great if we can add documentation about running CentOS based storage containers (like gluster / ceph containers). I can contribute here as well. Thanks, Saravana

[ceph storage sig] Possible Ceph Mimic package issue?
by Tobias Urdin 27 Jun '18

27 Jun '18

Hello, Sorry for starting a new thread, I accidentally wiped all email in my CentOS folder... Trying to install the Mimic packages from the test mirror here: http://cbs.centos.org/repos/storage7-ceph-mimic-candidate/x86_64/os/ You can see the commit where its tested here https://review.openstack.org/#/c/571990/ (ignore the ceph-luminous-sig part, I just override the repo URL and not the name as of now). Puppet (err): Execution of '/bin/yum -d 0 -e 0 -y install python-rbd' returned 1: Error: Package: lttng-ust-2.10.0-1.el7.x86_64 (ceph-luminous-sig) Requires: liburcu-bp.so.6()(64bit) Error: Package: lttng-ust-2.10.0-1.el7.x86_64 (ceph-luminous-sig) Requires: liburcu-cds.so.6()(64bit) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

CentOS 7.4 installation getting failed because of nss password prompt during installation.
by Veetil, Vyshnav 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

Hi, We have been observing that after migration to CentOS 7.4 the installation fails due to password being prompted for the execution of below command as part of the install script. <custom_location>certutil -N -d <custom location> -f <custom location>/nsspassword The install script contains the above command to create the NSSDB at the install time. Ideally, this command should never prompt for a password when it is already provided as part of '-f' argument but seeing this issue after migration to centOS 7.4. Also frequency of the issue is intermittent. Can anyone please help us to find the cause of this issue? Thanks and regards, Vyshnav

Removing old centos-release-<sig-project><version> from CentOS Extras?
by Niels de Vos 25 Jun '18

25 Jun '18

Hi, How are other SIGs handling the removal of repositories from the mirrors? There are centos-release-<sig-project> packages around that have YUM .repo files pointing to the now non-existing repos. Some (all?) of these centos-release-<sig-project> packages are still available in CentOS Extras. From #gluster: 21:25 < mallorn1> Anyone know why the 3.13 repository is gone from CentOS? http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/storage/x86_64/ 21:25 <@glusterbot> Title: Index of /centos/7/storage/x86_64CentOS Mirror (at mirror.centos.org) 21:26 < mallorn1> Installed the centos-release-gluster313.noarch package that CentOS has, but then you can't install gluster because the target doesn't exist. At the moment I am tempted to create a centos-release-gluster-DONTUSE package that replaces centos-release-gluster313 and other unmaintained versions (suggestions for an alternative to DONTUSE welcome!). I do not want to force users to upgrade to a newer Gluster version without manual intervention. Some versions are/may not be compatible between client/server, or require some additional steps depending on the features that are used. Thanks, Niels

Fedora CoreOS and CentOS Atomic Host
by Jason Brooks 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

Today, the Fedora Project announced [1] a new project, Fedora CoreOS, which will serve as a successor to Container Linux and Fedora Atomic. [1] https://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-coreos/ There's an FAQ [2] that addresses, among other things, the future of CentOS Atomic Host: "CentOS Atomic Host will continue producing downstream rebuilds of RHEL Atomic Host and will align with the end-of-life. The Fedora CoreOS project will be the consolidation point for the community distributions. Users are encouraged to move there in the future." [2] https://coreos.fedoraproject.org/faq Red Hat has announced [3] plans to ship a product called "Red Hat CoreOS." It's my impression that the delta between the Fedora CoreOS project and the Red Hat CoreOS product will be small enough that there won't be a need for a CentOS CoreOS. [3] https://www.redhat.com/en/about/press-releases/red-hat-unveils-roadmap-core… There are limited technical details about Fedora CoreOS available at this point, but the new host will be based on the same rpm-ostree foundation on which Fedora Atomic and CentOS Atomic are now built. I encourage CentOS Atomic users interested in the future of the platform to get involved [4] in the new project, and come say hello in #fedora-coreos on freenode.
