21:02:12 <martial> Hello friends
21:02:26 <julianp> How are you martial?
21:02:32 <martial> just wanted to let you know that the Scientific SIG will be meeting during the PTG
21:02:59 <julianp> Excellent.
21:03:01 <martial> We have two slots: 1300 UTC and 2100 UTC on Wednesday
21:03:39 <martial> Ocata rooms, and we have an Etherpad as well https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/scientific-sig-zed-ptg
21:03:51 <martial> (athough we need to populate it with the details)
21:04:43 <martial> Please remember to register for the PTG at https://www.openstack.org/ptg/
21:07:28 <julianp> Great. I'll register now.
21:07:29 <martial> and with that, I will apologize and disappear :)

21:07:34 <opendevmeet> Current chairs: b1airo martial
21:07:35 <b1airo> :-)
21:07:42 <julianp> Heh. Bye martial!
21:08:00 <b1airo> bye martial
21:08:03 <martial> b1airo: you can endmeeting when you are done
21:08:07 <b1airo> sure
21:08:42 <martial> posted the PTG details above, same as in our Slack
21:08:52 <b1airo> great!
21:10:13 <b1airo> I've not got much to add / report... we're wrestling with various OpenStack things at the moment, probably main one is with Kayobe, attempting to use it as a quick bootstrap for some new cluster nodes, but it's turning out to be a bit obtuse to debug when things go awry
21:12:18 <julianp> So it's not just Ansible?
21:14:24 <b1airo> hoping to get some more help from Stig et al. the bifrost DIB provisioning image process is ... hard to unpack, but we've found the default DIB image in Wallaby doesn't want to boot on this new hardware for some reason, whereas the slightly smaller provisioning image we grabbed from a Xena (or maybe later) deployment of bifrost does work
21:15:35 <julianp> Hmm... Yeah, looks like quite a few moving parts.
21:16:25 <b1airo> put it this way, Ansible isn't helping - I'm sure you're better at unpicking Ansible play failures than I am, but even our more familiar engineers still stand back and scratch their heads for a while
21:17:14 <julianp> Gotcha.
21:18:19 <b1airo> anyway, seems pretty quiet around here so probably time to bail and go get some work done (recruitment time!)
21:18:19 <julianp> And for the record I'm not that sure that I'm _actually_ better at unpicking Ansible play failures than you. It's always a bit hairy for me too.
21:18:32 <julianp> I saw the job post!
21:18:34 <julianp> I sent a friend your way.
21:18:47 <b1airo> cool, thanks!
21:18:58 <julianp> He's really interested in research, so fingers-crossed.
21:19:10 <julianp> My pleasure.
21:19:12 <julianp> Anyway, have a good day!
21:19:13 <b1airo> another systems role to advertise too
21:19:28 <b1airo> likewise julianp
21:19:35 <b1airo> catch you later
21:19:40 <julianp> See ya!
