15:00:40 <primeministerp> Hi everyone
15:01:04 <primeministerp> Welcome to the openstack/hyper-v discussion
15:01:23 <primeministerp> #topic status of the code!
15:01:56 <primeministerp> So we were able to get a feature freeze excemption which allowed the code to be excepted
15:02:20 <primeministerp> many thanks to the community and nova core devs for the help in this process
15:02:55 <primeministerp> Anyone testing the hyper-v code can now file bugs through the normal channels
15:03:02 <primeministerp> I have updated the wiki to reflect that.
15:04:07 <primeministerp> Also there are still some areas of documenation that need to be completed anyone wanting to help contribute to docs, please contact me directly
15:04:20 <primeministerp> #topic CI Status
15:05:08 <primeministerp> I'm still working to get the ci up and running, I've been plagued by hardware failures the last two weeks so hopefully i'm beyond that now
15:05:37 <primeministerp> I should have something in place by the end of the week
15:06:02 <primeministerp> to hopefully begin running the smokestack tests on hyper-v
15:06:23 <primeministerp> moving on
15:06:32 <primeministerp> #topic Blueprints for Grizzly
15:06:59 <primeministerp> We should begin thinking about key area's that need to be addressed for the Grizzly cycle
15:07:13 <primeministerp> the two that are high priority
15:07:20 <primeministerp> 1. Quantum
15:07:29 <primeministerp> 2. RDP console access
15:07:45 <primeministerp> People should be thinking about other area's that need to be addressed
15:08:15 <primeministerp> An additonal area could possibly be porting cinder to be able to use windows iscsi targets
15:08:26 <primeministerp> pnavarro: would that be something of interest?
15:08:41 <AndrewWeiss> primeministerp: what are some ideas floating around for RDP access?
15:08:42 <pnavarro> or keystone with Active Directory?
15:08:59 <primeministerp> pnavarro: that is also a key area
15:09:09 <primeministerp> pnavarro: however others are also currently looking into that
15:09:22 <primeministerp> pnavarro: hopefully we can get some coordination at the summit and pool efforts
15:09:30 <primeministerp> pnavarro: if people are already considering working on that
15:09:44 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: currently there has been some investigation on using FreeRDP
15:09:55 <AndrewWeiss> ok
15:10:02 <pnavarro> #agreed
15:10:14 <primeministerp> currently it is possible to connect to the vm console through hyper-v
15:10:36 <primeministerp> we would need to work on the freerdp project to help stabilize that code
15:10:59 <primeministerp> hopefully then create maybe a nova-rdp-proxy of sorts
15:11:13 <primeministerp> and also allow integration into horizion
15:11:23 <primeministerp> however that all needs to be discussed
15:11:25 <AndrewWeiss> that would be pretty nice
15:11:44 <primeministerp> quite honestly both that quantum are pretty big tasks
15:12:22 <primeministerp> pnavarro: do you think you'll be able to attend the conf, if i'm unable to get some help for that on my end?
15:13:51 <primeministerp> pnavarro: we can discuss later if possible
15:14:10 <pnavarro> primeministerp: holidays is not a problem I have free days, I'm going to see if I can find a flight/hotel affordable
15:14:19 <primeministerp> pnavarro: we can talk about the hotel
15:14:30 <primeministerp> pnavarro: i'd share a room if it comes to that
15:14:43 <pnavarro> primeministerp: ok, we'll talk later
15:14:46 <primeministerp> pnavarro: pnavarro however i'm still trying to secure my own trip
15:15:21 <primeministerp> pnavarro: anyway we need to get you there
15:15:42 <primeministerp> ok let's open the floor for discussion
15:15:48 <primeministerp> #topic open discussion
15:15:59 <primeministerp> anyone have anything they would like to add/discuss
15:16:12 <AndrewWeiss> primeministerp: anyone doing some security analyses on the hyper-v integration?
15:16:20 <primeministerp> I know alessandro pilotti is at a conf this week
15:16:26 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: good question
15:16:30 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: and no
15:16:36 <primeministerp> is the answer
15:16:55 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: right now most deployments have been strictly developement driven
15:17:03 <AndrewWeiss> that's what i assumed
15:17:13 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: I know i have not implemented encryption in my setups yet
15:17:22 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: however it's definately on my mind
15:17:39 <AndrewWeiss> primeministerp: any chance I can be of help to that?
15:17:41 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: it's just been a matter of cycles right now and lack of them
15:17:45 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: definately
15:18:02 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: ideally we need to implement it in a secure manner, then document that
15:18:25 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: let's talk off line, I can definately use the hands in the lab
15:18:33 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: as long as you can get the clearance and the cycles
15:18:35 <AndrewWeiss> primeministerp: ok, that  sounds great
15:18:39 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: if you know what i mean
15:18:41 <primeministerp> ;)
15:18:46 <AndrewWeiss> haha for sure
15:19:03 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: also if you want to start quick you can help w/ the documentaiton
15:19:24 <AndrewWeiss> primeministerp: yea i was thinking that's somewhere i can start
15:19:25 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: I have a good chunk done but need to finish up some key areas
15:19:34 <primeministerp> annegentle: ping
15:19:54 <primeministerp> annegentle: any way to hook up AndrewWeiss with the necessary license to assist in our hyper-v documentation efforts
15:20:12 <pnavarro> primeministerp: I have experience with Oxygen, so if you need help to transform DOC to docbook
15:20:24 <primeministerp> pnavarro: did you see what i've started w/
15:21:05 <pnavarro> primeministerp: not yet, it's in github?
15:21:15 <primeministerp> #link https://github.com/ppouliot/openstack-docs-hyper-v
15:21:44 <primeministerp> pnavarro: that's what I have now
15:22:02 <primeministerp> annegentle was kind enough to provide me with the original docs
15:22:16 <primeministerp> I have them commented in that
15:22:30 <pnavarro> ok, I'll take a look
15:22:44 <primeministerp> I have added the outline as well as most of the installing from source
15:22:51 <primeministerp> and tweaks
15:23:00 <primeministerp> pnavarro: check out the other repo too
15:23:41 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: you might want to check that out as well
15:23:56 <AndrewWeiss> primeministerp: ok, will do
15:24:18 <primeministerp> AndrewWeiss: also make sure you email annegentle regarding an oxygen license for hyper-v documentation
15:24:35 <primeministerp> pnavarro: anything to add
15:24:40 <AndrewWeiss> primeministerp: ok
15:25:04 <pnavarro> primeministerp: any status about puppet stuff?
15:25:12 <primeministerp> pnavarro: hehe
15:25:21 <primeministerp> pnavarro: so i've been working with the puppet guys
15:25:34 <primeministerp> pnavarro: we've hit a problem with the powershell executing
15:25:40 <primeministerp> that I haven't figured out yet
15:25:48 <primeministerp> if you look at that repo
15:25:56 <primeministerp> and dig down
15:26:00 <primeministerp> I 've cleaned out it
15:26:06 <primeministerp> it's most of the framework
15:26:15 <primeministerp> up until the point where we need to get the code from git
15:26:29 <primeministerp> all the powershell for setting the tidbits for openstack features  is there
15:26:35 <primeministerp> however some need to get cleaned up and
15:26:46 <primeministerp> what i've been testing is the add_hyper-v_feature.pp
15:26:58 <primeministerp> once i get that to work the rest should come quick
15:27:13 <primeministerp> if you want to help, i'll take it
15:27:27 <primeministerp> basically i've been running the init.pp
15:27:50 <primeministerp> which should run the one above
15:27:51 <pnavarro> I've tried puppet, but I have more experience with Chef
15:27:57 <primeministerp> pnavarro: well
15:28:01 <primeministerp> pnavarro: we need to do that too
15:28:11 <primeministerp> pnavarro: and all the commands
15:28:16 <primeministerp> are in those puppet manifiests
15:28:16 <pnavarro> I've seen you are in the crowbar skype group, any feedback from them?
15:28:28 <primeministerp> pnavarro: i've been talking with them
15:28:37 <primeministerp> however, i'm not ready for them yet
15:28:59 <primeministerp> pnavarro: and they are working on some major enhancements to crowbar
15:29:05 <primeministerp> pnavarro: to make it more agnostic
15:29:30 <primeministerp> pnavarro: i've already got some chef bits pulled together
15:29:43 <primeministerp> pnavarro: ideally we do both
15:30:10 <primeministerp> pnavarro: more people who can get it out there the better
15:30:28 <pnavarro> primeministerp: I've installed crowbar many times in some POC's, so I can help in the future
15:30:35 <primeministerp> pnavarro: good to know
15:30:54 <primeministerp> anything else?
15:31:12 <pnavarro> not from my side
15:31:44 <primeministerp> ok then, until next week.   Keep testing everyone.  File bugs please.
