Inquiry on IPV6 projects in Fedora
by Buddhike Kurera 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Hello Folks, I found following email at summer-coding list. May be there can be some interested folks to answer and support. So I took the liberty of forwarding the mail. As I can understood, this student is interested in IP6 hence networking related project ideas related with Fedora. Do we have any? Thanks for the support. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Muditha Dissanayaka <mudithagayan88(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, Mar 22, 2012 at 6:33 PM Subject: IPV6 To: summer-coding(a)lists.fedoraproject.org hi, what are the IPV6 projects in fedora?? best, Muditha _______________________________________________ summer-coding mailing list summer-coding(a)lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/summer-coding -- Regards, Buddhike Chandradeepa Kurera(bckurera) Fedora Ambassador - APAC region Event Liaison - Design Team Email: bckurera(a)fedoraproject.org | IRC: bckurera

staging new world order
by Kevin Fenzi 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

We agreed at fudcon (well, before then really) that we didn't like some of the current setup with staging and we were going to redo it. We came up with some plans at fudcon and I have been working on implementing those this week. ;) So, in the new staging world order how will things work? EVERYTHING will be in the master puppet branch. There is a 'staging' environment. This should be set on any nodes that are being used for staging. (ie, "$puppetEnvironment='staging'" should appear at the top of any node being used for staging things. Workflow for staging changes: 1. If you don't need to make any puppet related config changes, don't do anything. (ie, a new version of an app that uses the same config files, etc). Just update on the host and test. 2. If you need to make puppet changes in the module of the application: - cp modules/$yourmodulename modules-staging/$yourmodulename - git add modules-staging/$yourmodulename; git commit -a - make changes you need to modules-staging/$yourmodulename - test, make more changes to it, etc. - diff -Nur modules-staging/$yourmodulename modules/$yourmodulename and check your changes for sanity. - rsync -avr modules-staging/$yourmodulename modules/$yourmodulename - git rm -rf modules-staging/$yourmodulename 3. If you need to make changes outside of your module: - Make use of files ending with .staging (see resolv.conf in global for an example). So, if there's persistent changes in staging from production like a different config file, use this. - Conditionalize on environment: if $puppetEnvironment == 'staging' { yourcode } else{ productiononly code } - These changes can stay if they are helpful for further testing down the road. Ideally normal case is that staging and production pull from the same module unless there's active testing of changes being made (ie, there is no modules-staging/ unless something is being staged.) Now, hopefully this isn't too much burden on app folks or those who test with staging. If so, please scream now. ;) Additional things we can do: Since all the 'in progress' changes are in modules-staging, we can run a script (once a week?) to list those modules and ask 'hey, are you still testing this? can it be nuked or merged?' Perhaps with a attached 'diff -Nur modules-staging modules' attached? Does this work for everyone? If so, I will make the change in the next few days and get it done with. I need to work on app01.stg/app02.stg/proxy01.stg. They will need some config files that are for staging, but otherwise shouldn't be too bad. kevin

Freeze break request: fix mirrormanager sync for vpn hosts
by Kevin Fenzi 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

I removed the old 'bapp1.vpn.fedoraproject.org' entry from dns the other day because I didn't think we used it anymore. Turns out that we do in a mirrormanager sync script. This is preventing app05 and app06 from getting up to date mirror lists. The following should fix it. Plus +1s? I might just apply it and ask for forgiveness since this is potentially causing an issue. kevin -- diff --git a/modules/mirrormanager/files/mm_sync_data b/modules/mirrormanager/files/mm_sync_data index afeb2a2..01bb484 100755 --- a/modules/mirrormanager/files/mm_sync_data +++ b/modules/mirrormanager/files/mm_sync_data @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ #!/bin/bash -rsync -az --delete-after --delay-updates --delete mirrormanager@bapp1:/var/lib/mirrormanager/ /var/lib/mirror +rsync -az --delete-after --delay-updates --delete mirrormanager@bapp01:/var/lib/mirrormanager/ /var/lib/mirro killall -HUP mirrorlist_server.py diff --git a/modules/mirrormanager/files/mm_sync_out b/modules/mirrormanager/files/mm_sync_out index ac0e38e..7eca458 100755 --- a/modules/mirrormanager/files/mm_sync_out +++ b/modules/mirrormanager/files/mm_sync_out @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ #!/bin/bash -for s in app1 app2 app3 app4 app05 app6 app7; do +for s in app01 app02 app03 app04 app05 app06 app07; do ssh $s /usr/share/mirrormanager/mm_sync_data done

GSoC idea to setup Gitlab for Fedora Hosted
by Jeffrey S. Haemer 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

Stas, Looks like fun. Fedora Hosted supports a variety of SCM tools, not just git. Is there a way to fit Gitlab in with that? Today's Topics: > > 1.

by Buddhike Kurera 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

Hello Folks, Students are starting inquiring about the GSOC project ideas we listed on the wiki[0]. But unfortunately some idea dont have a primary mentor. If any one is interested in following idea[1] which is dealing with networking, please take it. Please treat this request as urgent. The list should be cleared (ideas with no mentors) once the students application period has started. More details about mentoring can be found here[2]. Thanks for the support.

Meeting Agenda Item: Introduction Jeffrey S. Haemer
by Jeffrey S. Haemer 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

Hi. I'm Jeff, and I'm a neophile. (Everybody: "Hi, Jeff.") I'm sitting in Caffe Sole, in Boulder, Colorado, which is on Mountain Time. I started doing Unix over 30 years ago. My first commercial Unix job was working on the first port of Unix to an Intel box. I have an original set of PC/IX disks and manuals in my office. 5 1/4" floppies. "Why, when I was a boy, ...." etc. You'd think I'd have learned something, wouldn't you? Wrong. Still, I keep trying as a sentinel. They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks, so when I finally learn something, I'll know I'm entering my second childhood. One thing I'm hot to learn is Puppet. I finally talked my boss into letting me take a 3-day course from Puppet Labs, which means I know the basics, but would now like adult supervision. I meet friends to geek out every Thursday, and can probably do 2-4 hours a week, then. I know some C and Perl, more shell, and a bit of Ruby. I do SCM, so I can get by in git and write Makefiles and stuff. My English is better than you'd expect, even though it *is* my native language. My IRC handle is "goyishekop". More questions? Ask away. -- Jeffrey Haemer <jeffrey.haemer(a)gmail.com> 720-837-8908 [cell], http://seejeffrun.blogspot.com [blog], http://www.youtube.com/user/goyishekop [vlog] *פרייהייט? דאס איז יאַנג דינען וואָרט.*

Meeting Agenda Item: Introduction Dan Bahena (aka Kwame Bahena)
by Kwame Bahena 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

IRC name - Kwame I've used Fedora since it's core days and before that Red Hat Linux and before that some other distros (which doesn't mean that I still use some other distros besides Fedora). Started using linux around 1998. Currently I work for a big video game company as a Linux Sysadmin/Engineer. My skills go from apache, firewalls, openldap, virtualization, networking, HA, puppet and much more. I would like to work mainly on sysadmin tasks to start getting used to the infrastructure. I've been meaning to give back to the community from which I've received so much, that's why now I'm joining this group. Best regards, -- Kwame
