Additional IRC meeting channel
by John R. Dennison 29 Jul '20

29 Jul '20

I set up #centos-meeting2 that can be used for IRC meetings in the event that #centos-meeting is busy when you would like to hold a meeting. This channel has the same configuration as #centos-meeting and I've added the same config overrides as are in place in #centos-meeting so the guardbot doesn't take action unnecessarily. Meeting minutes will be processed identically to #centos-meeting and will also be present at https://www.centos.org/minutes/ John -- Sloths move at the speed of congressional debate but with greater deliberation and less noise. -- P.

Availability of CentOS 7/8 AMIs through AWS Marketplace
by Marc Jay 28 Jul '20

28 Jul '20

Hi, Long-time user of CentOS 7 AMIs from the AWS Marketplace. I see that the latest CentOS 7 and all CentOS 8 AMIs are only available outside of the Marketplace ("These images are published outside of the AWS Market Place and are shared directly" - https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS) I'm really keen to understand if this is short-term situation, or if this is the indefinite future of CentOS AMI releases? There were a number of benefits to the Marketplace model - mainly for us is the ability to use Packer to fetch the latest AMI for the product code, plus also notifications. Are there reasons behind the recent change? Many thanks, Marc

cloud-init default username
by aleksander.baranowski 28 Jul '20

28 Jul '20

Hi, CentOS 7 has cloud-init with default username set to `centos`. The CentOS 8 uses standard `cloud-user`. The patch responsible for change is https://git.centos.org/rpms/cloud-init/blob/c7/f/SOURCES/cloud-init-centos-… There is no similar patch in https://git.centos.org/rpms/cloud-init/blob/c8/f/SOURCES Should it be fixed or is it expected behavior? It's quite important for me, because if it changes in the future some of our docs will have to be updated. Bests, Alex

We hope to have two possible outcomes from this project at the end of the quarter (September): * The workflow breaks at X point and we will work on a solution to fix * OR * The workflow works fine, but we will need better monitoring on the pipeline so we will work on a solution for this * The team are using this Monitor-Script https://pagure.io/fedora-ci/monitor-gating/ * Current status: failing consistently because of CI test timeouts * The jenkins instance being used is under-resourced, jobs waiting up to 40 minutes for a node * They are using a workable dump of historical datanommer/datagrepper data for queries to pull metrics on the historical/aggregate Packager Workflow from as a baseline * And are working on an outline of the workflow steps (from packager PoV) and systems involved (CPE team PoV), identifying metrics to be measured * The teams work is being tracked here https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/cpe-cicd/kanban ## CentOS Updates ### CentOS * CentOS-infra project created https://pagure.io/centos-infra/ * Day to Day working with CentOS-infra being documented at: https://pagure.io/cpe/docs/pull-request/10 * New website is live https://www.centos.org ### CentOS Stream * Business as usual, the team are churning through building packages in Stream * They are also working on tooling to bring back some rpkg features As always, feedback is welcome, and we will continue to look at ways to improve the delivery and readability of this weekly report.

Rebuilding OpenvSwitch and OVN from Fast DataPath in NFV Sig
by Alfredo Moralejo Alonso 21 Jul '20

21 Jul '20

Hi, During the last years OpenVswitch and OVN have become a major dependency for several projects and SIGs in the CentOS ecosystem, including OpenStack, oVirt and OpenShift. During this time each project has been following its own way with limited coordination (just some opportunistic cross-tagging between SIGs) and different approaches, rebuilding Fedora builds or FDP srpms from ftp.redhat.com from time to time in their own tags and repos. This has led to multiple issues and suboptimal usage resources so I think a good step ahead would be to use existing NFV SIG [1] as a collaboration area for all the interested projects to build, test and ship OpenvSwitch and OVN using public SRPMs from Fast Datapath [2]. What I'm proposing is that the interested people in becoming maintainers for OVS/OVN in NFV Sig request membership to nfv-sig group [3]. Then, we'll coordinate to request new tags/buildroots for OVS/OVN and start building and testing the required releases. Any thoughts on this proposal? Best regards, Alfredo [1] https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/NFV [2] ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/8Base/en/Fast-Datapath/SRP… [3] https://accounts.centos.org/group/members/sig-nfv
