gmaanI have one appointment at same time as today QA office hour, we will be skipping the today office hour.16:42
sean-k-mooneyby the way there are 2 -3 changes i want ot make to devstack over the next littel bit. assuming there are no obejctsions 1 configure systemd log rotation, 2 configure libvirt to log to the journal insteasd of to files (so that the libvirt log gets log roated and does nto file up my disk) 3 install spice supprot on debuntu, maybe finally fix the fact that sometime if you unstack18:44
sean-k-mooneyand restack ovs fails 18:44
sean-k-mooney1 and 2 are basiclaly the same in that i just want to stop libvirt using all my disk if i leave devstack running for a month or more18:45
clarkbsean-k-mooney: for 1) doyou mean place a limit on the disk space that can be consumed by journald for logs so that it will delete old things without filling the disk?18:56
sean-k-mooneythat what i was thinking18:56
sean-k-mooneythere is a config option to enable log rotation that is buidl into systemd18:56
sean-k-mooneyhttps://manpages.debian.org/testing/systemd/journald.conf.5.en.html has a bunch fo ways to have it automaticlly do the rotaion based on size, time ectra18:58
sean-k-mooneyso SystemMaxFileSize=1G SystemMaxFiles=10 MaxFileSec=1d MaxRetentionSec=30d19:01
sean-k-mooneysomething like that19:01
sean-k-mooneyrotate files daily or if they exceed 1G, keep 10 rotations and keep each for at most 30 days19:02
clarkbmake sense19:03
clarkband should be plenty for most/all CI needs19:03
sean-k-mooneyyep the exact values can obviously be tweaked to supprot any ci usecase we have.19:04
sean-k-mooneyif we leve the jurnal do this we can then just have libvirt log to the journal and not need to care, same for any other service really19:04
sean-k-mooneyi just need to make sure that if i change this i make suer that the existing logs are maintaed19:04
sean-k-mooneyi.e. by doing journalctl -u libvirt > screen-whatever19:05
sean-k-mooneywith that said i need to also consider the size of logs we end up with so there si a trade off there.19:05
sean-k-mooneythis is obviouly not urgent i just ocatually ahve to run truncate on my long lived devstacks19:06
melwittI have the same experience so I support the idea of these changes :)20:38
