Requesting agenda for Server SIG Weekly Meeting (2017-03-07)
by Stephen Gallagher 07 Mar '17

What do we have for topics this week? I don't have anything pressing on my plate (I think the Fleet Commander stuff can be handled outside of the meeting for now). Anyone have anything we need to discuss?

Addendum to the Domain Controller Role proposal: Fleet Commander requirements
by Stephen Gallagher 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hello, Server SIG! After a conversation I had last week with Christian Schaller, the Workstation SIG has extended a request to include specific requirements on our Domain Controller role to ensure that it interoperates properly with their Fleet Commander tool (which in turn interoperates with Cockpit). Alberto Ruiz has sent a pull request[1] to the proposal we approved last week, asking us for feedback on a new user story and requirements section. I'd appreciate it if everyone could take a look.

Cockpit 133

http://cockpit-project.org/blog/cockpit-133.html Cockpit is the modern Linux admin interface. We release regularly. Here are the release notes from version 133. Remotely managed machines are now configured in /etc/cockpit/machines.d ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Cockpit plugins, other packages, admins, VM management software, or config management systems like Ansible/puppet/cloud-init might want to pre-configure machines for cockpit. Previously this information was stored in |/var/lib/cockpit/machines.json|, but now that information is stored in individual json files in |/etc/cockpit/machines.d|. Existing |machines.json| files are migrated automatically to the new format. Check out the documentation below for more information on the format and use. Documentation: http://cockpit-project.org/guide/133/feature-machines.html Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/5963 Packages can register additional bridges ---------------------------------------- On the server side the |cockpit-bridge| connects to various system APIs. There are additional bridges for specific tasks that the main |cockpit-bridge| cannot handle, such as tasks that should be carried out with privilege escalation. These additional bridges can be registered in the |bridges| section of a package’s |manifest.json |file. Check out the documentation below for more information on the format and use. Documentation: http://cockpit-project.org/guide/133/packages.html#package-bridges Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/5683 Split translations into individual packages ------------------------------------------- Behind the scenes there’s been a lot of work on making translations work more smoothly and future-proof. As part of this the translations have been split into the individual packages, which also means they can be updated per package in the future. Check out the Zanata link below, it’s very easy to contribute translations to Cockpit. At this time our top 3 translations (>90%) are Polish (pl), Ukranian (uk) and Chinese (zh-CN). Every bit of help here is greatly appreciated and a big thank you to our contributors! Translations: https://fedora.zanata.org/project/view/cockpit?dswid=-8859 Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/5898 Get it ------ You can get Cockpit here: http://cockpit-project.org/running.html Cockpit 133 is available in Fedora 25: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/cockpit-133-1.fc25 Or download the tarball here: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/releases/tag/133 Thanks, Dominik
