Reminder: This Thursday and Friday we will be testing the OpenStack
Newton RC packages for CentOS -

Hi everyone,
We've just finished setting up CD to get images shipped into our
public cloud with more automation and noticed that the link pointing
from the unversioned file to the latest release is not properly done
for CentOS 6.
http://cloud.centos.org/centos/6/images/
If you notice, CentOS-6-x86_64-GenericCloud.qcow2 has a date of
2016-07-29 which matches the CentOS-6-x86_64-GenericCloud-1607.qcow2
release. However, there is a newer release which is
CentOS-6-x86_64-GenericCloud-1608.qcow2
It seems this problem does not exist for CentOS 7, but perhaps someone
forgot to point things over when they were done!
Thank you,
Mohammed
Hey all,
yesterday and today I had a few runs to install and extend Origin 1.3 on
CentOS. All seem to work pretty well, I did different permutations of
masters/nodes all based on this inventory file at [1] and using
openshift-ansible master to do the install.
Infrastructure was Vagrant with the latest CentOS box, see [2] for known
issues ;)

Hi,
In the Storage SIG we provide different versions of Gluster. The new
upstream release schedule[0] defines two different types of releases:
a. Long Term Maintenance - gets updates for ~12 months
b. Short Term Maintenance - gets updates for ~3 months
The actual time depends a little on how releases are keeping their
schedule (a release every 3 months). There are two Long Term Maintenance
versions active at a time. The Short Term Maintenance releases provide
early access to new features, and are recommended only for early
adopters and users who do not mind upgrading their storage environment
everye 3 months.
This makes for an interesting packaging problem. We would like our users
to be able to install the Gluster packages with a command as simple as
this:
# yum install centos-release-gluster
# yum install glusterfs-server
Users should not need to care (or know) about the actual version they
are installing. Currently Gluster 3.8 is provided by the c-r-gluster38
package, with a "Provides: centos-release-gluster = 3.8".
When I add a new c-r-gluster39 package, with a similar "Provides:", I do
not want users to get the 3.9 version by default. Users should get the
Long Term Maintenance versions, and only opt-in on the Short Term
Maintenance version. But, on the other hand, an installed 3.9 version
should be usable for other SIGs that depend on Gluster (like the Virt
SIG for oVirt).
Currently I am thinking to do the "Provides:" like:
# Users can install centos-release-gluster to get the latest, but we
# do not want to have 3.9 (Short Term Stable) to be selected when
# users do install the virtual centos-release-gluster package.
Provides: centos-release-gluster = 0.3.9
Conflicts: centos-release-gluster < 0.3.9
Obsoletes: centos-release-gluster < 0.3.9
Existing (all Long Term Stable) release packages do not have the 0.
prefix:
# Users can install centos-release-gluster to get the latest
Provides: centos-release-gluster = 3.8
Conflicts: centos-release-gluster < 3.8
Obsoletes: centos-release-gluster < 3.8
We do not want automatic updating/replacing of the release package in
any case (might need manual intervention for major releases). The
current approach works sufficiently well. Except for the potential issue
where other SIGs/projects depend on 'centos-release-gluster >= 3.8'.
This will not work with the 3.9 release package.
I am hoping others can suggest a more elegant solution that addresses
all of these use-cases.
Many thanks!

Can my jpyeron user be blessed to update the WIKI, so a CentOS 6 and CentOS 7 VPAT can be posted?

Hi,
We are currently planning on releasing the CentOS origin 1.3 rpm's on
Monday, September 26.
The rpm's are created and have passed all of our tests, but we want to
give users a chance to get ready for the update.
Some users have expressed concerns about not being able to control
when OpenShift Origin get's updated. For this we have created
openshift-excluder [1]. Although the excluder has gone through many
tests, it was not released or documented until today. We wanted to
give people a chance to be prepared for their OpenShift Origin update,
so we have delayed the 1.3 origin release until Monday.
If you want the install origin 1.3 before September 26, you can do the
following.
- yum install centos-release-openshift-origin
-- (If you haven't done this already)
- yum --enablerepo=centos-openshift-origin-testing install origin
origin-clients
-- (or whatever you need to install)
On a related note, the openshift-ansible installer won't be released
until at least the 26th. We are having issues with some variables.

Hello,
Many people are concerned about OpenShift Origin being updated
automatically when they do their normal system updates. This is very
understandable. OpenShift is more like an infrastructure than a
single program running.
We have created openshift-excluder. It will exclude all openshift
packages from being updated via yum. (If compiled on fedora, it does
the same for dnf)
How does it work.
1- yum -y install openshift-excluder
* All OpenShift Origin packages are now excluded.
2 - yum -y update
* All non-openshift packages are updated
3 - openshift-excluder unexclude
* OpenShift Origin packages are no longer excluded.
4 - yum -y update
* All packages, including openshift origin packages, are updated
5 - openshift-excluder exclude
* All OpenShift Origin packages are excluded again.
When the openshift-excluder rpm is completely removed, it will
un-exclude openshift packages.

Dear centos developers,
We have undertaken a task to assess code complexity triggers and generate recommendations for developing simple and understandable code. Our intension is to share the results with you, developers, so everyone can learn the triggers behind complex software.
We need your help for rigorous results. My request to you is - if you get 5-10 min. time, would you please consider to answer the questions of this survey on code complexity?
https://goo.gl/forms/h9WXZ8VSEw7BUyHg1
You are welcome to learn preliminary results through this link:
https://www.facebook.com/SoftwareCodeQuality/photos/?tab=album&album_id=163…
The results will be shared in a public webpage and everyone possible will be invited to learn and discuss them.
Your knowledge and experience is vital for achieving substantial and generalizable results, and your effort is much appreciated!
Sincerely
Vard Antinyan
