14:10:52 Sure, I'm happy to talk through it at a high level 14:11:16 same questions, what's the workload will be run on demo? 14:11:32 LAMPstack or Dockerswarm , or both 14:11:44 Basically, we plan to have all 16? interop challenge participants on stage at the same time building the app on their own public or private clouds 14:11:56 @Json____, hold your question and let Lauren finish. 14:12:00 just LAMP 14:12:00 for the on-stage demo 14:12:39 OK, do we need to prepare the problem by ourselves ? 14:12:40 Brad Topol and Jonathan Bryce will kick off the segment, explaining how the challenge came about, who is involved, the significance, what we've learned, etc. 14:12:57 we have about 12 minutes for the entire segment, so it's going to be quick like all keynotes :) 14:13:23 And the camera will go from one participant to another ... ? 14:13:25 the demo participants will have started their builds before brad and jonathan's intro since it seems to take most folks 8-12 minutes 14:13:41 Yes, so after the intro, Jonathan and Brad will walk around and engage with the different participants 14:14:12 Each participants laptop will be able to be shown on the big screen, so we'll check in with participants at different milestones and let them describe what's happening 14:14:28 on the signal from Johnathan, all the testers kick off the test. 14:14:32 it will be kind of a game show format, walking around and having a quick dialogue with the participants 14:14:35 Do we need to make the workload ready by ourselves or brad? 14:15:23 @Jason____, Johnathan will give everybody a signal to kick off the test. 14:15:35 OK 14:15:48 every tester on stage will kick off the test at the same time. 14:16:01 one thing we want to be careful about is not making it feel like a race. we definitely want to make sure a few folks finish before the end of the segment so we can showcase the wordpress landing page, but it shouldn't be obvious if some of the participants are unable to finish within the time 14:16:46 what am i leaving out @tongli? 14:16:58 @lsell, good point. it is not a race. 14:17:36 yep critical since we cannot know the load of any of those clouds nor we are controlling that 14:17:57 and servers are all different 14:18:01 @lsell, it is clear to me. @all fire away your question to Lauren if you have any 14:18:19 Do we want to standardize the internal network name (as it must be manually pre-created) ? 14:18:19 @gema, that is exactly right. 14:18:46 it is not a race, it is about interop, we want to see the results not care how long it takes. 14:18:46 I can answer any logistics questions you have --rehearsal times, etc. 14:18:48 each participant will be visible on stage and will have their organizations' loo on the front of their laptop, and i think it will be a really powerful show of community / collaboration 14:18:52 network can be a big factor. 14:19:22 lsell: is it ok to run the workload from a VM on the cloud? 14:19:25 How we can connect the private cloud by internet ? 14:19:33 my arch linux doesn't play very well with the ansible xD 14:19:46 any other questions on how the show will go? 14:19:53 network is the potential problme 14:20:05 ++ one reason why rehearsal there will be critical for success 14:20:15 @Jason____, you will use your own laptop so I assume that you can connect to your private cloud, right? 14:20:19 Will the folks on stage have an own WLAN that works even if the Conf-WIFI is bogged down? 14:20:27 tongli: 14:20:29 yes 14:20:30 I am not sure 14:20:34 yes, we absolutely want to everyone to test running the workload using the stage network at least twice 14:20:39 Huawei will use our own laptop 14:20:46 yes, there will be a dedicated network for demos 14:20:47 I can confirm. Jason____ 14:20:54 yes , we will use our laptop 14:21:02 lsell: but this is a separate network from the conference one, right? i.e. when everyone is in the room with their devices that won't affect us 14:21:03 @tamara_ will it be a hardline for each computer or the dedicated wifi? 14:21:05 @tongli - good point about network - -we would like to connect everyone (or most people) via ethernet if possible. You will have an opportunity to run the demo at rehearsal 14:21:06 @garloff, good question, not sure if we can get demo network. @lsell, do we have dedicated network for demos? 14:21:19 is it possible to test network/wifi this before the demo 14:21:22 yes, separate from the conference network 14:21:30 we have a demo network for stage 14:21:34 and yes we will be testing with the demo network we're using for the show 14:21:34 Tamara_: great, thanks 14:21:38 @lsell, great. I like that a lot. 14:22:15 @lsell, you wanna talk about that testers will be on stage behind a curtain first to get everything ready. 14:22:19 ? 14:22:57 yes, that is our plan, and a good idea from tonsil :) 14:22:59 so that testers will have enough of time to prepare. 14:23:06 if we can get everyone set up beforehand, we won't have any issues with computers going to sleep, etc. 14:23:19 but @tamara_ is working through logistics to make sure the curtain will work 14:23:27 ... or running out of power ... :-O 14:23:33 I suggest we can have meeing before keynote to make the preparement 14:23:35 if not, we'll have all the computers ready and lined up on stage, and then all of the participants will file out when the segment starts 14:23:54 Jason, we will have two required rehearsals prior to the keynote 14:23:56 to make sure everybody know the rules 14:23:56 Jason____, there are two rehearsals afaik 14:23:57 @lsell, @tamara_, thanks. that will make the show a lot smoother. 14:24:00 We will need everyone backstage prior to keynote; will confirm exact time at your onstage rehearsal tuesday 14:24:38 but plan no later than 8:30. It may be earlier if we feel we need more time/or want to run again prior to keynote start 14:24:43 ok, if no more question about how the show will be performed, can we move on to next about logistics? 14:25:04 Please add your information to this etherpad regarding rehearsals to help Tamara_, since she will be will be wrangling quite a few folks for this demo 14:25:04 tongli: my question as to whether we can run the workload from a VM somewhere 14:25:04 https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/interop-challenge-participant-info 14:25:08 is unanswered 14:25:20 (or I missed the answer) 14:25:37 @gema, I do that myself. I use VBox VM to run the tests. 14:25:39 gema: i'm hoping to do the same...should be ok IMO 14:25:45 I do not run it directly on my mac. 14:25:53 so that gives you some options. 14:25:56 tongli, rohit404: cool 14:25:57 @tongli, could you mind send me email to tell me the time and location for the two rehearsals 14:25:58 thanks 14:26:09 since it will run on your own laptop, you do wahtever you like. 14:26:16 I will send logistics email to all with details 14:26:25 we just want to see the script is rolling and the results. 14:26:27 I will ask our engineers to make the preparment 14:26:29 location, time, etc. 14:26:41 tongli: great 14:27:25 Please provide your info by this Friday Oct 14th on Etherpad and my team will follow up with all logistics details 14:27:34 @Tamara, could you mind copy one for me , jason.shi@huawei.com 14:27:35 thanks 14:27:35 @Tamara_, you like to talk about the next item in the agenda? 14:28:02 yes, happy to 14:28:29 which is "On stage requirements" 14:29:05 Please bring the following to rehearsal as well as the keynote: Laptop with power supply If laptop does not have HDMI out, bring adapter (i.e. Mini DP to HDMI) USB to Ethernet if your laptop does not have an ethernet port Prior to 1st rehearsal, disable all notifications, screen savers, etc. Settings: 1980x1020 14:29:46 You have 2 options for the first rehearsal Sunday or Monday 14:29:58 good point about the screen resolution, I think we suppose to use the mirror display. 14:30:17 @Tamara , where is the rehearsal? 14:30:17 so whatever shows on your screen will show on the big screen. not the extended display. 14:30:43 But then, @tongli, 1920x1080 will not work for most ... 14:30:45 At that time, we will connect your laptop to our av system & make sure we can see your machine on screen 14:30:47 @Jason___, that will be talked about later in the agenda. 14:30:48 we will join the rehearsal on Monday, I thing 14:30:54 ok 14:30:58 @tongli, thanks 14:31:24 @Tamara_, you mean 1980x1080 not 1980x1020, right? 14:31:24 If 1920x1080 will not work, please add the resolution that will work in the etherpad so we can prepare 14:32:03 @tongli - yes! sorry! 14:32:36 I will arrive on Monday, so this would be preferred 14:32:46 @Tamara_, not a problem, just want to make sure. in care you indeed want to use 1980x1020. I have seen some wired resolutions. 14:33:40 The rehearsal is in the Forum at CCIB 14:33:53 @Tamara_ if people using mirroring, then the resolution will be the native resolution of the panel peoples' laptops have, no? So we would need to go to a common lowest denominator like 1280x720 or so :-( 14:34:02 On the keynote stage. We will send very detailed directions 14:34:30 @Tamara 1920x1080 is more common I believe 14:34:32 Tamara_: any particular dresscode? 14:34:49 @Tamara , what's the detial forum ? 14:35:08 Jason____: that is where the conference is 14:35:21 @garloff - we can adjust the Picture in Picture size on screen. If everyone can let me know the native resolution in etherpad, that will help us plan 14:35:39 yes, the rehearsal will be in the keynote room, which is the large auditorium at the CCIB 14:36:17 @Isell, thanks, How about the time? 14:37:01 @jason - it's in the etherpad for easy reference 14:37:11 1) Tech Check on Sunday, October 23 between 10:45am-11:45am local time OR Monday October 24 between 3:45pm - 5pm local time. 14:37:18 yes, please refer to the etherpad and add your details there 14:37:24 2) Tuesday rehearsal 4:45pm arrival for 5:15-5:45pm on stage 14:37:43 @Tamara, thanks very much 14:37:56 hi, guys add your resolution in the etherpad. 14:38:10 if different from 1980x1080 14:38:32 sorry 1920x1080 14:38:34 OK, we will update the etherpad tomorrow 14:39:17 This is going to be a really exciting segment & we are excited to have you. As Tongli noted, it is important for you to attend both rehearsals in order to participate in keynote demo. 14:39:23 great. anything else we can answer today? 14:39:29 we really appreciate all of your work 14:39:37 @Tamara_, you wanna talk about the desktop background pictures etc? 14:40:14 not something kind strange or make people feel uncomfortable. 14:40:24 dress code? 14:40:35 @Isell, we are booked the Monday reherasal on Monday 14:40:40 Sure. If you can disable notifications, screen savers, etc., prior to rehearsal, that will help. And remember that everyone will see your desktop! 14:41:21 yeah, dress code? jeans + polo shirt? 14:41:22 * rohit404 all should wear similar interop t-shirts or would that be too monotonous for the stage ? 14:41:47 @rohit404, interop t-shirt? someone make some please. 14:42:00 Could we get T-shirts as well ? 14:42:11 I would think each one will wear their company shirt. 14:42:57 should not matter that much, right? @lsell @Tamara_ 14:43:00 we have company shirt , but the logo is seens smaller at stage 14:43:12 yeah i think if everyone wore the same shirt, it would be too monotonous 14:43:23 i would recommend a company shirt or just your own clothes 14:43:23 @jason we will provide a laptop cling with your company logo 14:43:55 guys, this is exciting, any other questions for @lsell and @Tamara_? 14:43:58 wear something you fell comfortable/confident in 14:44:05 *feel* 14:44:07 yes, all of the logos will be visible and consistent across all of the laptops 14:44:15 @Tamara_, +2 14:44:36 Tamara_: +1 14:45:14 OpenStack gear from the last summits :-) 14:45:28 yes! 14:45:35 +1 14:46:53 @Tamara: the first rehearsal will be on Monday at 3:45pm.
