cloud-utils and growrootfs in Atomic
by Karanbir Singh 27 Aug '14

27 Aug '14

Hi, has anyone looked at the cloud-utils stack for Atomic ? at the moment were stuck with a 8gb disk image, I've got a patch that lets me change that on the build time side of things. But before i upstream it, I was going to try cloud-utils and that fails quite badly in a dynamic backing store setup like AWS. Has anyone had a look at what the issues might be and if its worth poking ? -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

a snapshotted, delayed mirror
by Karanbir Singh 27 Aug '14

27 Aug '14

Hi, One of the corner case challenges that I have on the builders that do the chained instance, images, media builds is that they consume an internal mirror - but a generic mirror. i.e updates during the day can result in the images that are built later to end up with different content ( for the ones that consume the updates/ repo etc ) To work around this, I'm proposing running a mirror closer to the image-buildsys machine, that only updates at midnight UTC, and will represent the state of play on the calendar date before the timestamped images. eg. the CentOS-7-x86_64-Generic-2014_08_26.qcow2 image will contain updates upto and including all content released till the 25th midnight. Its likely easier to make this private. But is there value in having this be public ? its only going to be a single node ? Also, longer term we might need / want to chain this from ci.dev.centos.org runs, so we only include content thats been through the ci process. -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Help with testing AMI's
by Karanbir Singh 27 Aug '14

27 Aug '14

hi, CentOS 7 Atomic Cloud Docker Host AMI's are up, and I'm looking for people to help test these before we do a wider released. These images are marked Alpha1 grade. Only built for us-east-1 at this point. Please email me at directly ( kbsingh at centos.org ) with an amazon aws account id ( 12 digit number ) and I'll add you to the testers-list with access to the ami's. Major issues outstanding: * need to redo the image build process to not use partitions, but to consume the entire block device * resolve issues for pv booting ( create a fudged grub setup that works for pv-grub expecting grub < 2 ) Other things: * we need to get a centos-release-atomic built and pushed * consolidate the srpms into git.centos.org * get cockpit working and included in this stack Regards, -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

interest in a grsec / hardened kernel
by Karanbir Singh 25 Aug '14

25 Aug '14

hi Is there any interest ( ie. would people be willing to help ) get a grsec and/or otherwise hardened kernel for CentOS-6/7 ? I dont think its worth putting in the effort into CentOS-5 at this point.

Atomic ostree repo mirror
by Karanbir Singh 22 Aug '14

22 Aug '14

hi, Working on the final bits for getting a CentOS Atomic image done, and a key issue that we need to workout is where the ostree content is going to live. I had considered putting it on cloud.centos.org, but technically there is nothing that indicates Atomic / OSTree are cloud specific. Once we have mainstream traction the best place for hosting this would be on mirror.centos.org, with content in repo moving along with updates, as they are released. But at the moment, I'd say this was a testing release : plus the actual content for the Atomic image is likely to change quite a bit ( we might even end up with multiple Atomic builds for different sorts of roles etc ). With that in mind, should we put the repos on dev.centos.org for now ? is this worth creating an atomic.centos.org ? I'm not a big fan of creating more subdomains though.

Centos 7 debuginfo-install
by Fred Smith 21 Aug '14

Hi! I posted a longer version of this to the users list but have no replies so far (posted yesterday afternoon). Please pardon the near-duplicate posting. i've shortened this one so it's easier to read. On C7 I enabled the debuginfo repo and ran: debuginfo-install glibc-2.17-55.el7.x86_64 keyutils-libs-1.5.8-3.el7.x86_64 krb5-libs-1.11.3-49.el7.x86_64 libcom_err-1.42.9-4.el7.x86_64 libselinux-2.2.2-6.el7.x86_64 openssl-libs-1.0.1e-34.el7_0.4.x86_64 pcre-8.32-12.el7.x86_64 xz-libs-5.1.2-8alpha.el7.x86_64 zlib-1.2.7-13.el7.x86_64 <big snippage> Install 13 Packages (+2 Dependent packages) Total size: 227 M Installed size: 1.0 G Is this ok [y/d/N]: y Downloading packages: warning: /var/cache/yum/x86_64/7/debug/packages/gcc-base-debuginfo-4.8.2-16.el7.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID b6792c39: NOKEY Retrieving key from file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-Debug-7 GPG key at file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-Debug-7 (0xF4A80EB5) is already installed Importing GPG key 0xB6792C39: Userid : "CentOS-7 Debug (CentOS-7 Debuginfo RPMS) <security(a)centos.org>" Fingerprint: 759d 690f 6099 2d52 6a35 8cbd d0f2 5a3c b679 2c39 Package : centos-release-7-0.1406.el7.centos.2.4.x86_64 (@updates) From : /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-Debug-7 Is this ok [y/N]: y Key imported successfully Import of key(s) didn't help, wrong key(s)?

Docker test images for CentOS-5
by Jim Perrin 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

I've been looking at creating a CentOS-5 docker image, and it's taking shape. Currently my largest concern with the image is that it requires selinux to be disabled on the host, as the image currently lacks a patch similar to what was required for CentOS-6 [1]. If you would like to test this current iteration of this image, you can get it from http://people.centos.org/jperrin/docker/ The kickstart used to create the c5 docker image can be found in the https://github.com/CentOS/sig-cloud-instance-build/ repository. Feedback is welcome. [1] http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2014-May/010345.html -- Jim Perrin The CentOS Project | http://www.centos.org twitter: @BitIntegrity | GPG Key: FA09AD77

Anjuta On CentOs 7
by Mr iQ 17 Aug '14

17 Aug '14

Hi Guys, In a thread called "Development Tools" i've asked if someone managed to install anjuta on C7. Someone gave me a link of fedora rpm package, but it didn't work for me. I was so close to just drop C7 and install ubuntu for the development. Because who will struggle with the whole dependencies when you can just "apt-get install anjuta" on ubuntu ? But i wanted to challenge myself and install it manually. I did it - i know it's nothing for profis like you. I had to deal with a lot of dependencies. While compiling i figured out that some of gnome projects were broken Oo - i'v fixed the source code and tried again and again till i got Anjuta running on C7. Yaaay. I'll attach some screenshots. The only thing that doesn't work is the glade gui in anjuta. That's because i didn't pay attention to the warning that glade is not installed. but the glade3 is on the repository and you can edit the gui by launching glade3 separately. Do you guys plan to ship anjuta into the repository ? I would like to contribute to CentOS7. Just let me know how can i contribute to C7 and i would love to do that. In other words, i would love to get involve in some projects. P.S. as i am a student at the university i may have time only at weekend. P.S. I sent this email yesterday on CentOS-Devel but the msg. body was too big, i compressed the images. Thanks guys, wish you a good weekend.

flexlm management software
by igor igorvich 16 Aug '14

16 Aug '14

Hi all- I deal with flexlm a great deal and want to create better logging software for it that will keep track of what features are used by whom, when, over time periods, etc. The purpose would be to allow admins to track what features are actually being used and which are not. Plan to write it in perl on centos 6. Is this something that would be of use?
