EC2 / F17 Alpha: BROKEN
by Robyn Bergeron 01 Mar '12

01 Mar '12

Apparently appliance-tools is not working properly. This leads to either: * Cannot start doing updates for F17 until EC2 images are made/booting/working OR * No EC2 for F17 Alpha (because updates will be in, and EC2 F17 alpha would be different from Other Alphas) I'm recommending going with the latter option, simply because there is no criteria at all right now for making EC2 a blocker. Your (very immediate) thoughts are welcomed. I'm not particularly interested in slipping all of alpha after it met all of the shipping criteria and was announced to be shippable. Dennis, do you have a bug number for this (appliance-tools brokenness) yet? I'm open to future recommendations, including doing a test compose/upload of EC2 images so that we know this before we have a go/no-go meeting, at the bare minimum. Please feel free to pipe in. :D -Robyn

Hey, It's been a month since I posted the last report: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2012-January/001200.html What's been happening since? - Pádraig, Russell, Dan Berrange and Rich Jones headed to FOSDEM in Brussels. Pádraig's talk was on reliability, pacemaker cloud and OpenStack: http://www.pixelbeat.org/docs/pacemaker-cloud/fosdem/ Dan's was on libvirt-sandbox: http://berrange.com/posts/2012/02/05/libvirt-sandbox-at-fosdem-2012/ and Rich's was on libguestfs: http://rwmj.wordpress.com/2012/02/04/libguestfs-talk-at-fosdem/ Thierry Carrez also gave his perspective on OpenStack goings-on at the cloud devroom: http://fnords.wordpress.com/2012/02/08/fosdem-2012-feedback/ LWN covered a very popular talk given by Ryan Lane on how Wikimedia are using OpenStack to open up their infrastructure maintenance to a wider contributor group: http://lwn.net/Articles/480002/ - Upstream is holding its Spring Governance elections where contributors to the project get to vote on the Project Technical Leads (PTL) for each project and two seats on the Project Policy Board (PPB) http://etherpad.openstack.org/Spring2012-Nominees Mark is running for a PPB seat and Eoghan is running for Glance PTL. - Upstream held a "Bug Squashing Day": http://wiki.openstack.org/BugSquashingDay/20120202 where a bunch of folks all chipped in and attempted to make a dent in the bug count. - The essex-3 milestone was released: http://www.mail-archive.com/openstack@lists.launchpad.net/msg06924.html and our Nova, Glance, Swift, Keystone and Quantum packages in Fedora 17 were promptly updated. - There's been some discussions on the mailing list about some of the changes resulting from updating to latest Essex: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2012-February/001247.html http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2012-February/001266.html - To help maintain packages like Nova and Glance, we are now maintaining our patches for those packages in git repositories on github: http://github.com/fedora-openstack/nova http://github.com/fedora-openstack/glance and using a simple shell script to extract the commits as patch files to include in our RPMs: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=openstack-nova.git;a=blob;f=update-… - Cole's epic battle with Horizon ended in victory for Cole! https://bugzilla.redhat.com/785946 It looks on track to be a totally awesome new feature for Fedora 17: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/OpenStack_Horizon One interesting scene in this drama was Cole and Derek trying to get to the bottom of a mod_wsgi issue: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2012-January/001215.html - python-keystoneclient and python-quantumclient have been packaged by Cole and reviewed by Alan and Bob: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/784910 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/785016 - Derek Higgins and Dan Prince have been making awesome progress with having SmokeStack run its tests on Fedora. You can get an idea of the bewildering amount of activity involved from their github feeds: https://github.com/derekhiggins https://github.com/dprince The end result is that all patches submitted to OpenStack's gerrit instance now get tested by SmokeStack on Fedora 16 e.g. http://smokestack.openstack.org/jobs/13714 The packages which SmokeStack tests are built from these fedpkg repo forks on github: https://github.com/fedora-openstack/openstack-nova https://github.com/fedora-openstack/openstack-glance https://github.com/fedora-openstack/openstack-keystone We will pull changes from there into Fedora each time we update to the latest upstream. SmokeStack also uses Puppet recipes to deploy OpenStack before testing it. The recipes it currently uses are here: https://github.com/derekhiggins/puppetlabs-openstack-nosubmodules Derek is working with Dan Bode from Puppetlabs to get the Fedora changes cleaned up and merged into: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-openstack - On a related note, Dan Prince recently joined the OpenStack team at Red Hat and will be involved with Fedora. Dan is the author of SmokeStack and a member of nova-core. - After Alan Pevec and Chris Wright's efforts to add Fedora support to devstackpy, Dean Troyer posted his patch to add F-16 support to the original devstack: https://lists.launchpad.net/openstack/msg07867.html Awesome! - A complete re-write of Keystone (dubbed "keystone light") was merged recently and there has been a flurry of activity around getting it into shape for Essex: https://lists.launchpad.net/openstack/msg07610.html - Adam Young is working on LDAP support in keystone: https://review.openstack.org/#change,4362 and also filed a bunch of keystone bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/923748 https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/923755 https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/923771 https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/933852 - Alan Pevec has been keeping on top of the packaging fallout from the keystone light merge with e.g. http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=openstack-keystone.git;a=commitdiff… - Eoghan has continued to kick ass on glance: https://review.openstack.org/#q,owner:eglynn+OR+reviewer:eglynn,n,z and is now a member of the glance-core team. Some of his large changes include: https://review.openstack.org/4096 https://review.openstack.org/3863 - Pete has updated swift documentation to include details on how to set up SAIO (Swift All In One) on Fedora: https://github.com/openstack/swift/commit/6f7f95ffde - Dan Berrange is working on publishing some reasonably official Fedora images to use when testing OpenStack: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2012-February/001275.html http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2012-February/001234.html The idea is to base these image on the work already done to publish images for EC2. - Mark made some further progress on openstack-common by introducing the idea of an "incubation area" in openstack-common where new APIs can be worked on until they are stable: http://wiki.openstack.org/CommonLibrary#Incubation The idea is that APIs like openstack.common.cfg aren't quite ready yet to guarantee API stability, but we can use a simple script to keep the copies of the code in sync across projects. - Mark also continued to slog away on cfg adoption with e.g. https://review.openstack.org/3731 https://review.openstack.org/3730 https://review.openstack.org/3401 https://review.openstack.org/#q,project:openstack/keystone+owner:markmc+sta… - Pádraig found and fixed python3 related b0rkage in koji: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=785301#c3 - Pádraig also packaged dnsmasq's dhcp_release so that it could be used in Nova: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/788485 - Russell packaged python-sendfile which was needed for one of Eoghan's Glance patches: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/788252 - Russell also added Qpid support to Glance's notifications code: https://review.openstack.org/3939 - Doug Weimer posted a patch to have Swift updated to 1.4.6 and Alan subsequently pushed an update: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/795771 - At a recent upstream PPB meeting, Quantum was accepted as a core OpenStack project for the Folsom release: https://lists.launchpad.net/netstack/msg00735.html - Derek and Pádraig have been dealing with a systemd/tgtd issue caused by a recent systemd update in Fedora 16: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=797913 - In a similar vein, Derek fixed a Nova Volumes issue caused by a iscsiadm behaviour change in Fedora 17: https://review.openstack.org/#change,4188 Cheers, Mark.

Grub vs Grub2 in Fedora 16 EC2 kickstarts
by Daniel P. Berrange 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

I am attempting to actually use the Cloud kickstart files found here: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=cloud-kickstarts.git To re-create the official Fedora cloud images with some customizations. AFAICT though, either the kickstarts, or appliance-creator, or both are broken, due to some grub vs grub2 confusion: # appliance-creator --name=f16-x86_64-cloud --version 20120224 --release=1 --checksum -c /home/berrange/fedora-16-x86_64-ec2.ks ['/'] Package grub is obsoleted by grub2, trying to install 1:grub2-1.99-12.fc16.x86_64 instead warning: libgcc-4.6.2-1.fc16.x86_64: Header V3

cloud-init and F16
by Aaron Bento 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Hello All, I'm looking to provide some feedback on cloud-init and the F16 AMI's. I'm not sure the proper place to file the bug against. I'm attempting to place a simple shell script in user data to perform post-boot configuration. This fails since I'm unable to execute anything within user data. (I'm hoping eventually to use cloud-config syntax) The cloud-init startup process (sometime after placing the ssh keys) at one point runs: /usr/bin/cloud-init-cfg all final During this stage, run-parts gets run to actually execute the downloaded user data. It fails with the following: CalledProcessError: Command '['run-parts', '--regex', '.*', '/var/lib/cloud/instance/scripts'] The --regex flag is not accepted by the Fedora version of run-parts. Debian/Ubuntu both have a compiled binary of run-parts that accepts this flag. Here is a reproduction of it on an already booted machine: https://gist.github.com/1503054 I've got two solutions that seem to work in initial testing. 1) Backing in a copy of run-parts that accepts the additional arguments into a new ami. 2) Removing the regex flag + expression out of /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cloudinit/util.py So my question to the group. What is a better fix to peruse, adding functionality to run-parts, or patching util.py to not use the regex? Thanks! -- Aaron Bento

keystone config file defaults
by Dan Prince 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

The new keystone (KSL) config file defaults to a key/value stores by default. Should we update the default keystone config file so that it uses the SQL backend by default instead? For example: 27c26 < driver = keystone.identity.backends.sql.Identity --- > driver = keystone.identity.backends.kvs.Identity

I am trying to upgrade an AWS EC2 f16 to f17 following these instructions: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_16_-.3E_Fed… I start with AMI: ami-0316d86a as listed here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG/EC2_Images The instructions describe: "Change the following kernel commandline parameter directly in the bootloader menu, which is shown during bootup, or edit the line in /etc/grub*.cfg to remove ro and rhgb and append rw rd.info rd.convertfs enforcing=0" However /etc/grub*.cfg is empty: [root@domU-12-31-39-04-F1-72 etc]# file /etc/grub2.cfg /etc/grub2.cfg: symbolic link to `../boot/grub2/grub.cfg' [root@domU-12-31-39-04-F1-72 etc]# file ../boot/grub2/grub.cfg ../boot/grub2/grub.cfg: empty Am I doing something wrong? How can one get a f17 EC2 instance? Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions. Joe VLcek

openstack-nova defaults in Fedora 17
by Mark McLoughlin 21 Feb '12

21 Feb '12

Hey, For OpenStack Essex in Fedora 17, I thought it was worth discussing: 1) Should we switch to the new --config-file format by default? I think we discussed this briefly before and decided we would. We should probably go ahead to have it settled in before the test day. 2) I see we've added support for force_dhcp_release=True; should we make it the default? 3) 'root_helper=sudo nova-rootwrap' is the default now, right? All the test cases still work fine? No user impact? 4) 'rpc_backend=nova.rpc.impl_qpid' is also the default now? I think we had some debate about whether we should require any of the messaging libs by default? Did we come to a conclusion? My instinct it to require the default lib only Thanks! Mark.

Review Request: ovirt-engine-sdk
by oschreib＠redhat.com 19 Feb '12

Greetings, I have posted a review request for a new package, ovirt-engine-cli. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=791233 You can find out more about it here: http://ovirt.org/wiki/CLI The reason this is Cloud SIG related is that ovirt-engine-cli is an interface for the oVirt engine platform (www.ovirt.org), which is an open virtualization engine, used to manage a feature rich virtualization environment. This review is part of the attempt to get oVirt into Fedora. If it's necessary, I'd be happy to do a review in return. Thanks, Ofer Schreiber
