I've added that to my TODO 11:11:49 https://github.com/MeeGoIntegration/open-build-service/commit/79ef397bb76e4bb1aae8bca8fed1abb9a80091a0 11:12:02 as we have been erm, not having a good time with releases lately 11:12:26 :) 11:12:30 lbt: can you summarize monitoring? 11:12:39 yep - I Had another crack at infra issues - extended puppet coverage, installed nrpe to most debian VMs, doing phosts next. 11:12:56 we have icigna on http://monitor.in.merproject.org/icinga/ 11:13:21 internal VLAN access only - so you either need an openvpn link from your machine or a tunnel 11:14:01 I'll see about putting it behind an apache auth at some point 11:14:36 this is doing the usual nagios/icinga monitoring - focus on disk space really 11:15:13 and I think we'll need to look at some kind of hardlink system too - to spot and hardlink identical rpms in our release area 11:15:25 sorry late 11:15:56 i'll be gone thursday-friday, just for good measure 11:16:00 oh, I replied and asked Stefan to confirm the provision of another host according to : http://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Donation_Policy 11:16:53 and... whilst I'm reporting 'stuff' 11:17:03 Main news from last week is completion of obs-setup at https://github.com/lbt/obs-setup Needs to be integrated to the wiki docs too. 11:17:59 this lets me deploy+test OBS on VMs in a virtual lan - phaeron you may want to take a look, it's a bit like the system I put together in Nokia 11:18:19 ok 11:19:04 we can run regression tests on it - so verify that builds don't break when we upgrade and test our branches 11:19:22 here's some test cases : https://build.pub.meego.com/project/monitor?project=Mer%3AOBS%3ATestBuilds# 11:21:24 like Stskeeps says, doing CI image builds is the next task here: needs the copyproject deploying on CI OBS (which may mean an upgrade) and it may be sane to bring BOSS up to date 11:22:06 IMG also had loop0 issues last time I looked but someone found a patch and updating to latest upstream may fix it (that's in Tools:Testing now) 11:22:21 (in mic, obviously) 11:23:12 done :) 11:23:14 mic is still crap ? :D 11:24:12 meh - it is better than it was - I need to push some patches upstream actually 11:25:18 ok now the usb drive won't mount at all 11:25:21 even chilled 11:26:47 One wishlist item that's bugging me is better version comparison between OBS projects to support promotion from Devel to Testing 11:27:15 not such a big deal in Core where packages are more isolated 11:27:28 ok, my net connection just crashed 11:27:34 #chair lbt 11:27:34 Current chairs: Stskeeps lbt 11:28:02 OK, yell if it goes down again :P 11:28:20 i'm on 2g 11:28:22 :P 11:29:19 just thinking ... and the current release has some dependencies 11:29:44 has anyone done any core-next builds using the current SDK ? 11:30:45 sounds like a "no" 11:30:55 * Sage haven't at least 11:31:44 OK, I need to verify this before doing the updatestorm then 11:31:58 I've mentioned it in the release notes for the pre-releases 11:34:16 any other issues? 11:36:02 Stskeeps: fixed the only issue I had with .0.3 11:36:06 err... .0.2 11:36:56 OK, sounds like we can wrap up then 11:37:18 I'll be working on the release for the rest of the day I think 11:37:38 I need to sort out disk space again and then review and release the SDK too 11:38:10 and the kickstarts... 11:38:24 Thank you all for coming 11:38:29 #endmeeting
