First draft of three Cockpit+Atomic features
by Andreas Nilsson 29 Aug '14

29 Aug '14

A lot of awesome work have been going into Fedora 21 Server. Another important use of Cockpit is Atomic (http://www.projectatomic.io/), where Cockpit also comes by default. It would be good to focus on some of the needs for that next. Together with Stef, I've created feature pages for 3 important areas for Atomic, and containers in general. These are complete with user stories and workflows. The ideas is that the designs for this will come out of this. https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/wiki/Atomic:-Docker-Storage https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/wiki/Atomic:-OSTree-Update https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/wiki/Atomic:-Resource-Controls Please read through these and make sure these makes sense, doesn't miss any important use cases and are technically achievable on a sane time basis. - Andreas

Fedora 21, Test day, and Cockpit master
by Marius Vollmer 28 Aug '14

28 Aug '14

Hi, the Cockpit 0.21 release is going to be in Fedora 21 Alpha and will be the one used for the Cockpit Test Day. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2014-09-16_Cockpit Most/all of what's cooking right now should be fair game for Fedora 21, I'd say, so we just keep working on master as usual and make releases from it that will then go to Fedora 21.

New "ipa" flavored test image
by Marius Vollmer 27 Aug '14

27 Aug '14

Hi, I have uploaded a new "ipa" test image, to fix #1076. Thus, the next time you run ./VERIFY or ./test/testsuite-prepapre, this image will be downloaded. (It's big, about 880 megs.)

Release for F21 Alpha, port 9090, SELinux
by Marius Vollmer 26 Aug '14

26 Aug '14

Hi, when you make the next release, please make sure that it is coordinated with this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1129645 I am afraid that the risk is high that our change to 9090 might break Cockpit completely in Fedora 21 unless we coordinate carefully with the SELinux policy. If coordination is too difficult, let's just revert our change and go back to port 1001. In any case, there is nothing dramatically bad about going in to the test day with Cockpit 0.20, so we can also decide to not make a release for Fedora 21 Alpha at all. Can you take care of this, Patrick?

Cockpit as a privileged container?
by Colin Walters 20 Aug '14

20 Aug '14

Hi, There's been some discussion about having the Atomic trees be smaller; has anyone done any prototyping work on Cockpit as a privileged Docker container?

Cockpit port change to -> 9090
by Stef Walter 15 Aug '14

15 Aug '14

Hey all, There's been lots of discussion (on IRC and elsewhere) about choice of our default port, currently 1001. That's an unregistered port, but it's very unlikely we could register it (doing so requires an IETF RFC). Fedora is the first distro we're packaged in "for real" ... and the Fedora Server WG has asked us to try and use a port that has less of a chance of conflicting with something else in the future. On the Cockpit side it's very important that we use a memorable port. In fact it's one of the few ports admins will be typing repeatedly over and over again. The one that looks appropriate is 9090, which is for "Web System Manager". It's pretty easy to remember and hopefully will be consistent with some other web based consoles for other OS's. Cheers, Stef

Please rebase your pull requests
by Marius Vollmer 15 Aug '14

15 Aug '14

Hi, I have just merged #1025, which puts the 'shell' module into private scopes. (Thanks, Stef!) Quite a bit of code has moved and much has been renamed, so you need to carefully rebase your pull requests on the new master now. I'll do that next for the journalctl-direct branch.
