I don't have it quite working yet. 19:12:15 mordred: is there a way to run just the remote tracking bit? 19:12:49 jeblair: it's on the todo list to fully split that out - but I could make a patch to make a flag to do that pretty easily 19:12:56 jeblair: I can prioritize that 19:12:58 puppet will install gerrit and it looks like it starts without problem, but i can't access the site. I think it's the apache stuff that's not quite setup right. 19:13:32 zaro: i know this is required: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/60893 (Allow encoded path separators in URLs) 19:13:49 zaro: it will manifest as permission denied errors if you try to look at any change 19:14:00 zaro: i believe that's applied manually on review-dev right now 19:14:40 zaro: I'm seing review-dev as up 19:14:43 yeah, it's on there to approve before upgrade 19:14:58 nibalizer: i'm testing on my personal VM 19:15:06 zaro: oh okay 19:15:26 jeblair: i have that change on my test vm 19:15:49 i can't access http://host 19:16:14 zaro: ok, hrm. well, we should start prioritizing fixing this now to make sure we're ready 19:16:27 zaro: so feel free to bug us for help if you get stuck :) 19:16:28 actually it says web page not available. i need help with it. 19:17:32 ttx: the 'off week' is april 28 - may 2, right? 19:17:46 yes 19:17:52 anyways i think etherpad has all the tasks that's necessary to do the upgrade. anyone see anything missing? 19:17:54 good, that's when I'm away ;) 19:18:00 I am away that week too :) 19:18:05 pleia2: same here :) 19:18:22 * mordred will be here 19:18:27 right, but fungi, mordred, and zaro are around, right? 19:18:49 i mean, that's like right when fungi gets back, but still... :) 19:18:52 yah - fungi is gone now, which I believe puts him back by that week 19:19:19 so should we just get started first thing monday morning? 19:19:23 i'm around 19:19:37 jeblair: works for me 19:19:50 yup fungi should be back during off week 19:20:08 my announcement says gerrit upgrade to happen 5/1-5/7. isn't that the off week? 19:20:44 yup, that's what it says https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Icehouse_Release_Schedule 19:20:48 zaro: april 28 - may 2; ttx names weeks by their thursdays 19:21:03 * mordred thinks ttx is strange 19:21:07 ok, fine by me 19:21:52 okay, so we'll start at, oh, 9am pdt april 28 19:21:54 better for me anyways 19:22:16 mordred: that's another weird thing we inherited from ubuntu 19:22:35 (release days are on Thursdays, so weeks are name after Thursdays too) 19:22:45 i think the announcement should probably tell people to expect a couple hours of downtime followed by several more hours of automated systems not quite working, but they shouldn't notice because they should all be on vacation. ;) 19:22:47 OpenStack: the love child of Ubuntu and Drizzle ... 19:23:05 jeblair: ++ 19:23:19 zaro: are you interested in writing/sending the announcements? 19:23:28 jeblair: can do. 19:23:37 in a perfect world, do we have any idea how much downtime we actually expect? 19:24:01 zaro: cool; if you don't mind, write up a draft in an etherpad and we can review it before you send it 19:24:09 I mean, annoucing a couple of hours sounds great- just curious if we have a sense of the actual or not 19:24:12 (these should be a bit more formal and we'll want to make sure they are correct) 19:24:38 zaro: do you know how long schema upgrades and secondary indexing might take? 19:25:04 there are manual steps to upgrade the db, so i'm guessing probably 4 hrs. 19:25:25 zaro: did we get you a production dump to test that with? 19:26:08 yes, fugi provided and i believe i have tested. 19:26:26 how long did that take to convert? 19:26:52 also... 19:27:03 last i tested everything it was ver 2.8.1, now it's 2.8.4. not sure if it's worth retesting? 19:27:15 i'm thinking we should implement this by spinning up a new host 19:27:16 conversion is pretty quick. 19:27:52 i believe it was matter of a few mins. 19:28:34 so hopefully actual downtime should be short, unless the initial indexing (for the secondary index) is very slow 19:29:05 jeblair: perhaps we should test by having one of us who hasn't done any of the upgrades yet try to perform one on a new copy host based on instructions from zaro and see how it goes? 19:29:13 our current gerrit host is very old; we should get a new one that's a performance pvhvm node 19:29:22 jeblair: ++ to pvhvm 19:29:23 ++ 19:30:49 mordred: that would be swell; are you volunteering? :) note that if anyone spins up a second gerrit with the production data, you should probably take care to make sure no email leaves the machine; just in case 19:31:05 jeblair: yeah - I'll take a stab at it 19:31:12 cool 19:31:33 #action mordred to test zaro's gerrit upgrade instructions (with timing info) 19:32:21 mordred: #link https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/gerrit_upgrade_script 19:32:32 anything else on the gerrit upgrade? we'll do one more checkin next week, and then the upgrade itself is the following week 19:33:17 jeblair: did you see the gerritlib part? 19:33:44 zaro: yeah, remind me this afternoon and i'll tag a release 19:34:01 we also need an infra-core to update openstack/2.8 branch 19:34:10 any volunteers? 19:34:13 zaro: mordred is going to take care of that 19:34:15 I have been working quite a lot with the gerrit upgrade as well in my own environment, so I might be helpful as well. I will be available in infra (most of the time) if anyone thinks of something a relative noob can do. 19:34:30 sweston: awesome, thanks! 19:34:36 ++ 19:34:40 sweston: will be in touch 19:34:43 oh, i just thought of something else... 19:35:05 two things actually... 19:35:27 zaro: what's your thought on workflow-label vs wip plugin? 19:35:51 zaro, mordred: glad to help out in any way I can ;-) 19:36:11 zaro: i'm guessing it's "stick with workflow-label" since we're getting close and wip doesn't look like it's installed on review-dev; but wanted to double check. 19:36:16 IMO i think label makes a lot of sense because it just works with everything else. 19:36:35 i mean like the prolog rules 19:36:46 and searching 19:37:12 the second thing is, we should have some documentation to help devs with the changes. in particular, we need something on the workflow label, and probably something about how to make custom dashboards 19:37:13 WIP is not available on 2.8 19:37:33 jeblair: ++ 19:37:47 sweston: do you think you could pitch in there? 19:37:48 is that something that would be on openstack wiki? 19:37:58 zaro: yes, i think so 19:38:04 jeblair: absolutely!! 19:38:31 jeblair: wiki or ci.o.o ? 19:38:48 mordred: wiki for now i think 19:38:57 nod 19:39:16 mordred: i still need to finish my "user manual" idea, when i do, it should go there, but right now i think the most appropriate place for this stuff is the wiki 19:39:22 documentation is fairly sparse as it is, I found myself reading through a lot of java code to figure things out. Any time that I could save for anyone else would be a bonus. 19:39:43 and we'll like to it in the later announcements 19:39:47 link to it 19:41:00 zaro: thanks again for working on this 19:41:17 #topic Fedora gate support (ianw) 19:41:46 ianw: any introductory remarks before we dig into the subtopics? 19:41:52 hi; a quick procedural thing, are we supposed to remove items from the agenda on the wiki manually? i had thought they got reset each week 19:42:15 really, the only thing I want to bring up this week is https://review.openstack.org/#/c/86842/ 19:42:35 ianw: heh, i try to clean it up sometimes, but i missed last weeks meeting and didn't notice this was on the agenda. :) 19:42:50 I wasn't around much last week, but I'll be catching up with fedora stuff and doing reviews this week and next 19:43:15 Derek and I both tested manual installs and it seemed ok 19:43:27 great 19:43:39 cool, well if those things are already decided... 19:43:43 pleia2: ok, if review of that is on your todo list, all good 19:43:54 #topic Open discussion 19:43:56 ianw: it is now, thanks for mentioning it :) 19:43:59 ianw: is there a proposed commit to put this on devstack in experimental or non voting? 19:44:17 I'd like to start running it on devstack as soon as we can to shake out issues 19:44:35 sdague: not yet, i just wanted to make sure someone was looking at adding f20 to nodepool, then we can do that 19:44:43 cool, great 19:45:08 those infra-root folks are still changing all of our credentials for everything, so we're going to be less responsive than usual for the next bit; patience there would be appreciated 19:45:35 and the best way to help is to review infra/config changes so that when we get back to it, we can just approve them without thinking about them because they have so many +1s :) 19:45:44 im still woring on storyboard migration, still stuck on getting a local dev up 19:46:00 im picking krotscheck's brain for tips and have some things to try when I get home 19:46:13 nibalizer: thanks for doing that 19:47:16 ya, as i said earlier this morning I'm thinking right now that there is state on storyboard.o.o thats not expressed in the puppet code, or that I'm not aware of, since I'm running basically that and its no-worky 19:48:10 nibalizer: :( that's definitely not what we want. 19:48:22 agree 19:48:33 nibalizer: let me know if there's anything i can check on the prod server 19:48:39 nibalizer: one thing - I assume you've created the db? 19:48:50 we dont' create it in the puppet because we're using cloud databases for the storyboard server 19:49:32 actually we do create the db, or we do a db-migrate thing in puppet 19:49:41 we do an 'update head' 19:49:46 we do - but that doesn't create the _Schema_ - just the tables in teh schema 19:49:56 hrm maybe this is the problem! 19:50:05 no need to chew up more meeting time tho 19:50:13 we can follow up tonight when im on my home workstation 19:50:16 kk 19:50:24 hello guys 19:51:08 jeblair: any thoughts about if there are additional infra sessions for design summit you want proposed? 19:51:23 reterdedddd: o/ 19:51:42 im back on freenode 19:51:46 but where is freenode 19:52:20 sdague: ttx or krotscheck is going to propose a storyboard session 19:52:48 are the sessions going to be livestreamed? 19:53:03 nibalizer: not design summit 19:53:15 okay thanks 19:53:34 jeblair: do we want to talk about multinode nodepool ? 19:53:52 now that that is close to a thing 19:54:09 im not clone ;_; 19:54:23 we might want to talk about the direction of the config repo (how to make it a better upstream, etc)... 19:54:50 ++ 19:54:52 i would like to see the storyboard module split out into its own module that we then bring in 19:54:58 not sure if there is precedent for that 19:55:15 nibalizer: there absolutely is; we want that for pretty much all of our modules 19:55:16 nibalizer: that's actually a long-standing todo list to do more of 19:55:49 woot, i'll follow up with you all later on how to requistion a new gerrit repo to plop it into 19:55:53 we stalled on it a little bit due to there not being spectacular ways to automatically upload to pupept forge 19:55:53 mordred: jeblair: whats preventing it from happening for most of the modules? 19:56:13 jesusaurus: people need to type things to make it happen, and also what mordred said about uploading 19:56:16 I think cleanup is a big part of it 19:56:22 jesusaurus: puppetforge upload automation OR a better way to pull things in which is not puppet forge that doesn't involve crazy complex new things 19:56:25 we need to do the decoupling 19:56:26 and cleanup 19:56:32 defeinitely cleanup :) 19:56:37 yeh, there is definitely a lot of coupling today 19:56:40 but in general - highly supportive of the effort 19:56:49 which server is good? 19:56:49 ya thats a big project, but a fun one I think 19:57:09 * jesusaurus puts seperating out modules at the bottom of his todo list 20:00:00 nibalizer: What are you thinking, something like storyboard::api, storyboard::db, storyboard::webclient? 20:00:42 fuck NSA 20:00:45 thanks all! 20:00:47 #endmeeting
