19:01:41 #startmeeting infra 19:01:42 Meeting started Tue Jul 8 19:01:41 2014 UTC and is due to finish in 60 minutes. The chair is jeblair. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot. 19:01:43 o/ 19:01:43 I am 19:01:43 Useful Commands: #action #agreed #help #info #idea #link #topic #startvote. 19:01:45 The meeting name has been set to 'infra' 19:02:00 #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/InfraTeamMeeting 19:02:06 #link http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/infra/2014/infra.2014-07-01-19.02.html 19:02:25 drat, i think most of the agenda is left over from last week 19:02:45 #topic Actions from last meeting 19:02:50 nibalizer and jeblair to spin up a puppet3 master 19:02:54 this did not happen 19:02:56 o/ 19:03:03 several changes were still outstanding and needed to land 19:03:20 nibalizer: i think they have landed now, and we're ready to actually try booting one? 19:04:43 that's my story and i'm sticking to it 19:04:46 #topic Zanata/Pootle updates and time frame (pleia2) 19:04:56 so I have a couple updates here 19:05:41 I met with the translatiosn team at their meeting last week, they're still keen to try Zanata "soon" since they're having trouble with Transifex support (creating new projects is hard right now, takes a lot of time since they need to go to support) 19:05:47 jeblair: very quickly, yes we can, but im dealing with some other stuff right now, so i'll emerge from the cloud... eventually 19:06:10 cloud was perhaps not the right word in this context 19:06:21 pleia2: Here's an update from transifex: They fixed the problem, we can create new projects again! 19:06:26 the Zanata folks told us 5-6 weeks before they have Zanata running on the WildFly application server, which we can run on Centos7 - no licenses 19:06:32 * Ajaeger1 created 5+ new projects the last few days 19:06:36 Ajaeger1: ah good, so less urgent :) 19:06:43 pleia2: exactly! 19:07:10 still, the long time it took to resolve this, means we have to switch eventually. 19:07:28 pleia2: does wildfly have packages in centos? 19:07:33 so we can set up basic Zanata + AS7 pre-packaged thing in the -infra so the Translations folks can test it + upgrade Pootle and schedule a demo with a Pootle contributor so they can compare side-by-side 19:07:41 jeblair: no, it's still heavily in development 19:07:57 pleia2: how will be deploy wildfly? 19:07:57 jeblair: it's pretty much jboss, we'd manage from tarballs, not awesome tbh :\ 19:08:36 pleia2: isn't that the same problem with jboss? 19:09:00 jeblair: jboss has that problem, plus the community version having known security problems and the enterprise version requiring a paid license 19:09:19 so with wildfly we only solve the licensing issues 19:09:41 pleia2: wildfly community version is expected to get security updates? 19:09:51 jeblair: that's the plan 19:10:05 i have to admit, i'm extremely skeptical 19:10:20 i believe redhat chooses to make jboss installation difficult as a business decison 19:10:29 and i don't see why that would be different with wildfly 19:10:40 as I understand it, it's not jboss, but it is a java application server that will have the ability to run zanata 19:10:56 but this is all new to me :) 19:10:58 not to mention, the number of hoops we have to go through to manage installing software from tarballs 19:11:29 well, red hat traditionally made their linux distro security updates hard too, as part of their business model. hence centos. then they acknowledged that people want to run community versions of server things, so they absorbed centos 19:11:30 pleia2: can't zanata run in tomcat? 19:11:32 I also have very little expertise managing java/jboss applications, not sure how we're doing talent-wise with the rest of the team 19:11:44 zaro: I don't think so 19:11:50 I have never done jboss before either :) 19:12:09 i have *some* experience with jboss 19:12:20 pleia2: i've only used tomcat, because, well, the R1 university i was at couldn't afford a jboss license. :) 19:13:20 pleia2: so it seems like the plan is to set up both systems un-managed for further evaluation 19:13:28 jeblair: yeah 19:13:59 i think that the puppeting, etc, should be part of the evaluation 19:14:23 ++ 19:14:37 i don't think the systems are equivalent from an installation/upgrade/management pov 19:15:06 agreed 19:15:24 Carlos of the Zanata team sent me some incomplete puppet configs for zanata running on jboss+RHEL and they are keen to see improvements, so I'll take another look at those 19:15:34 I added this topic for our sprint next week, so I'll do some prep for that 19:15:51 i agree that the deployment automation of a system is part of that system from an evaluation perspective. if it runs well but is impossible to deploy, then it may be less preferable to something which runs okay and is easy to deploy 19:16:13 pleia2: would you be interested in working with the translation team on the evaluation, to make sure that these concerns are shared? 19:16:27 jeblair: yeah, I'll handle that 19:16:51 the real concern for them is that if it's tough for us to maintain, it'll be a poor experience + have downtime as we upgrade, etc 19:16:51 s/deploy/deploy and manage/g 19:16:52 IIRC deploying jboss and tomcat are pretty similiar. there's lots of automation around those 19:17:17 zaro: deploying tomcat is "yum install tomcat" 19:17:43 puppet require package :) 19:18:08 pleia2: indeed; but i never would have gotten the rocketships aligned in irc :) 19:18:14 hehe 19:18:34 anyway, that's all I've got 19:18:58 cool, thanks. i'm happy to help out with any pootle hacking that needs doing too. 19:19:09 great 19:19:21 #topic Replacement for docs.openstack.org (AJaeger) 19:19:39 This is a followup to the Atlanta summit session https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/summit-b301-ci-doc-automation 19:20:09 We talked briefly about the need to replace docs.openstack.org with another system - one of the issues was a system where we can actually delete files ;) 19:20:29 I wanted to followup on this and see what the next steps are here. 19:21:04 I think there are a few options open to us. like rsync or using 'slots' to host the content 19:21:08 jeblair: I took as note after the meeting "Jim Blair will brainstorm with team on how to do it best, will need at 19:21:08 least a month, so get back to him after mid-June." - and now I'm back ;) 19:21:17 I briefly looked at read the docs but that is far too complicated for our needs 19:21:19 Ajaeger1: we may not need a terribly complicated system, possibly just a different way of copying them 19:21:36 jeblair: copying and deleting ;) yeah 19:21:51 Ajaeger1: yeah, i'd actually like to push that back another 2 weeks if we can... i'd like to do some brainstorming at our mid-cycle in germany 19:21:57 It's serving static pages, so shouldn't be something complicated. 19:22:11 jeblair: fine with me! 19:22:22 in particular, knowing what "features" of rackspace cloudsites the current docs hosting might be taking for granted would be helpful 19:22:54 *for us 19:22:58 fungi: if you have some questions, I can figure them out with annegentle 19:22:59 mt 19:23:24 i suspect that just cramming those files onto an basic apache server may not get you everything you require. i know in the past there were content search libraries and other things provided by the cloudsites platform 19:23:41 so knowing what they are up front will help speed the design along 19:24:00 fungi: I can check, I'm not aware of these yet. 19:24:02 hrm. current search seems to use google 19:24:22 though with the docs-draft deployment we do at least serve up the basic content on a bog-standard apache server, so might just work 19:24:38 jeblair: oh, they might have changed that 19:24:47 fungi: yeah, just see http://docs-draft.openstack.org/63/105263/4/check/gate-openstack-manuals-tox-doc-publish-checkbuild/94f3e9d/publish-docs/ 19:24:54 works fine for publishing manuals... 19:25:01 just click on the link 19:25:18 yeah, i think the basic question is how to delete the files we want to (obsolete files), but not the ones we don't (files that come from a different build, eg, a stable branch) 19:25:42 jeblair: indeed. 19:26:15 we publish to single directories for each book 19:26:20 but only publish the changed manuals 19:26:20 so we'll have a bunch of people in the room that understand what we're doing now, and what we're trying to do with swift, so i bet we can come up with something 19:26:28 cool--all good stuff to discuss next week in darmstadt 19:27:07 if you have questions for me, just ping me - I'm in Germany as well so in your timezone next week ;) 19:27:23 Ajaeger1: thanks, will do! 19:27:28 the search i was thinking of was the stuff like http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/content/#searchDiv btw 19:27:55 fungi: try http://docs-draft.openstack.org/63/105263/4/check/gate-openstack-manuals-tox-doc-publish-checkbuild/94f3e9d/publish-docs/high-availability-guide/content/index.html#searchDiv 19:28:08 works on docs-draft as well 19:28:28 Thanks for putting this on the agenda for Darmstadt! 19:28:54 right, dita but i forget what provides it 19:29:00 Ajaeger1: thank you! 19:29:07 what a perfect transition... 19:29:12 #topic Meetup 19:29:17 #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Qa_Infra_Meetup_2014 19:29:20 that's next week 19:29:32 we're out of room and registration is closed 19:29:33 yes I arrive sunday morning local time 19:29:49 me too 19:30:05 clarkb is my flying buddy 19:30:10 me too 19:30:13 I get in at 10:55am 19:30:22 there's a waitlist, so if anyone on the registration list is not going, please let me know 19:30:36 also, if you are only attending certain days, please annotate that in the comments section next to your name 19:30:49 looks like i get to frankfurt at noon 19:30:52 I will create an etherpad for commits to infra-manual, I'd like everyone to pick a section and offer at least one paragraph of content 19:31:02 I'll link the etherpad to the wikipage 19:31:13 anteaya: good one 19:32:43 I also have assorted third party things for beer discussion 19:33:15 third-party beer 19:33:20 and assorted beer for third party discussion 19:33:27 (woo germany!) 19:33:35 ha ha ha 19:33:47 and world cup 19:33:48 anteaya, take good notes on the third-party beer 19:33:52 No need to bring your own beer to Germany ;) 19:34:16 Ajaeger1: yeah, i expect to be able to find plenty there 19:34:20 krtaylor: I will be able to tell many stories 19:34:38 krtaylor: I still want to you be there, but can't figure out how to shoe horn you in 19:35:00 anteaya, it all good, I'll stay here and get some patches done 19:35:06 kk 19:35:16 you can review many infra-manual patches 19:35:21 and assorted others 19:35:42 yep, that too 19:35:47 :D 19:36:40 anyone have anything else? 19:36:53 I sort of do 19:37:23 it being hosted at corporate land is there a secret handshake we need to use to get into the building? 19:37:52 looks like we have an address to go to. And how early should we show up? 19:37:53 btw, i've been trying to avoid reviewing changes that don't have a +/-1 code review; so non-core infra reviewers, your help is much appreciated. :) 19:38:10 clarkb: last time I visited Deutsche Telekom they had a reception where I just told them who I am and what I wanted. 19:38:16 Ajaeger1: perfect 19:38:19 clarkb: i think the registration list is being used for that purpose 19:38:31 jeblair: I hear that 19:38:32 But there are many buildings of DT in Darmstadt... 19:38:59 Your host is Marc Koderer - remember his name ;) 19:39:05 the wiki page says " Mina-Rees-Str. 12" hopefully that's specific enough :) 19:39:14 if i end up at the wrong building, i'll just recruit some new dt employees to work on infra for us 19:39:34 * Ajaeger1 just looks it up 19:39:47 fungi: go you 19:39:50 The whole area is Telekom buildings, so take the proper entry ;) 19:39:57 we need more eu representation 19:40:12 * SergeyLukjanov hopes that will be able to participate somehow through irc 19:40:30 I am guessing there will be enough of us weird people hanging around if we can't figure it out that someone will help us :) 19:41:01 SergeyLukjanov, I was hoping for some google hangouts 19:41:20 +1 for a google hangout, but it's EU timezone eh? 19:41:27 wenlock: yeah, UTC+2 19:41:38 wenlock: there's more than one timezone in EU ;) 19:41:40 * fungi was hoping to use free software, not google 19:41:46 :D 19:42:03 fungi, would be nice for something that records the session 19:42:15 wenlock: for example, an irc bot! 19:42:34 intreasting 19:42:37 * fungi thinks we already have one in the #openstack-infra channel 19:43:20 and we should take good notes for the benefit of those not able to participate with us real-time 19:43:34 etherpads will be created 19:44:09 if we do it summit-style, etherpads were sufficient for following up after the summit I missed 19:44:28 cool 19:44:54 I don't think it will be a hardship for us to work summit style 19:44:58 great, thanks! 19:45:05 take your go-pros :D 19:45:09 yep. agreed, etherpads for taking notes 19:45:29 we can add links to the sprint wikipage 19:45:41 perfect 19:45:52 wenlock: now i'm going to search for "extreme daredevil hacking videos" on youtube 19:46:04 jeblair haha 19:46:38 hehe 19:46:58 oh, one last thing... 19:47:08 i reckon we should probably cancel this meeting next week :) 19:47:15 ha ha ha 19:47:17 yeah 19:47:23 i reckon so 19:47:49 or, rather than cancel it, hold it in person, and hack on things during it 19:47:57 should we also cancel the week after (oscon)? 19:48:03 jeblair: possibly 19:48:10 i honestly don't know what i'm going to be doing at that time 19:48:10 I will be there as will you and fungi iirc 19:48:15 I'm skipping oscon 19:48:17 I won't be at oscon proper though 19:48:24 i think mordred will be in a board meeting... 19:48:31 i think i can make the oscon week meeting, but it would be from a hotel room, or mobile modem or crappy conference wifi 19:48:32 come to think of it, that might be were some of us may be too 19:48:37 oh, right 19:48:48 i meant to show up for the board meeting too 19:48:51 fungi: we might need to do backyard hacking with kegerator 19:48:57 and non crappy wifi 19:48:59 I'm not at oscon 19:49:13 clarkb: i'll be happy to help you hack on your kegerator 19:49:29 clearly it needs its own microcontrolled sensor array 19:49:35 brewpi is a thing 19:49:42 occasionally I am tempted to do something like that 19:49:52 but then I would just worry about it more 19:49:56 i think we may want to declare it an opportunistic meeting... if people show up and feel strongly about having a meeting, go for it. but expect many absences, or no meeting at all. 19:49:58 ok, between oscon and board things... next meeting on July 29th 19:49:59 o/ 19:50:01 jeblair: ++ 19:50:12 wfm 19:50:12 ttx: ohai 19:50:19 ttx: talk went well?

19:51:13 i figured we were just going to have to #agree calendars are hard 19:51:24 #agreed no meeting on July 15 due to in-person meetup 19:51:32 #agreed possibly no meeting on July 22 due to oscon 19:51:42 #agreed next scheduled meeting July 29 19:51:56 fungi: a bit empty room, but our numbers attracted the usual "wow" 19:52:08 ttx: what was the talk? 19:52:18 jeblair: infra, same as my oscon one 19:52:22 ttx: what event? 19:52:24 err 19:52:26 fosdem one 19:52:31 which you attended 19:52:42 Libre software meeting 19:52:48 oh cool 19:53:02 that reminds me: lca cfp closes soon. 19:53:13 I still haven't come up with something good for that 19:53:16 I should think harder 19:53:19 * ttx still tries to find a way to jutify cfping for it 19:53:24 +s 19:53:31 jeblair: oh, thanks, I didn't know it was open 19:53:35 do we have a nodepool presentation yet? i couldn't find one in the usual place 19:53:52 would probably be something work knocking up if nobody's done one yet 19:54:01 oh wow really soon 19:54:01 s/work/worth/ 19:54:07 i'm going to submit some stuff about gertty and gear. 19:54:13 fungi: i have not done one yet 19:54:38 I had kciked around something along the lines of 100k changes there and back again 19:54:46 because as you know those films were filmed in that country <_< 19:54:55 clarkb: nice 19:54:55 clarkb: ohhh, I like it 19:55:02 maybe I will go ahead and do that 19:55:06 you are waxing poetic on the titles 19:55:14 * clarkb does this 19:55:17 :D 19:55:25 work ghost tooth into it 19:55:46 clarkb: statistically speaking, several people in the audience will have worked on those films. :) 19:55:52 jeblair: :) 19:56:14 ok I can't not submit that paper now 19:56:17 i just hope we don't revert all 100k changes 19:56:40 that was my secret plan 19:56:47 statistically speaking, several people in the audience will have reverted some of those 100k changes 19:56:55 i mean, i'm trying to :) 19:57:00 no I wanted to look forward to the next 100k 19:57:09 This year the papers committee is going to be focused on open source in education -- hey I can talk about mentoring and mentoring mentors 19:57:17 so a this is how we got here and it was crazy. This is how much crazier its going to be 19:57:18 I wonder if they will like that proposal 19:58:29 well, thanks everyone! see many of you next week! 19:58:39 Have a good trip to Germany! 19:58:41 looking forward to it! 19:58:42 thanks jeblair 19:58:42 thanks jeblair 19:58:42 safe travel everyone 19:58:48 #endmeeting
