oh no! a level 65 kparal!
|
16:02
|
| * kparal looks suspiciously for a hidden meaning
|
16:03
|
| adamw
|
your join message reminded me of an RPG for some reason
|
16:03
|
| kparal
|
or any meaning :)

|
16:05
|
| kparal
|
yup
|
16:06
|
| adamw
|
#info kparal did file a bug for the rats #2 DVD boo fail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=785808
|
16:06

adamw: hey, just hanging out until the fesco meeting

"tflink to test building a boot.iso with usrmove builds "
|
16:06
|
| adamw
|
josef: uh, I meant *our* josef :)
|
16:06
|
| adamw
|
jskladan = also a josef
|
16:07
|
| adamw
|
so this one also got done
|
16:07
|
| adamw
|
yay us
|
16:07
|
| adamw
|
#info tflink was eventually able to build a functional boot.iso, exposing some required changes in the build process along the way
|
16:07
|
| josef
|
ah haha
|
16:07
|
| * tflink is currently working to build another boot.iso, will post that once its done
|
16:08
|
| adamw
|
alright. anything else anyone wants to pick up on from last week? I don't see anything else
|
16:08
|
| adamw
|
okey dokey
|
16:09

| adamw
|
#topic upcoming QA events
|
16:09
|
| adamw
|
so we're into the f17 alpha cycle now, TC1 is out there and under test
|
16:09
|
| adamw
|
feature 'freeze' is tomorrow and RC1 is scheduled for 02-16
|
16:10
|
| adamw
|
so we're going to want at least one more TC, probably two
|
16:10
|
| adamw
|
i think it's probably a good idea to spin a TC2 ASAP now the /usr move has landed in Rawhide, so we have a post-/usr-move TC to bash on and compare to the pre-/usr-move one
|
16:11
|
| adamw
|
anyone any thoughts there?
|
16:11
|
| tflink
|
current version of lorax won't work with usrmove
|
16:11
|
| adamw
|
ah, okay
|
16:11
|
| adamw
|
so we'll need a new one before we can do another compose?
|
16:11
|
| * tflink submitted a patch
|
16:11
|
| tflink
|
yeah, the compose will fail silently, otherwise
|
16:12
|
| tflink
|
as in it will build but won't actually work
|
16:12
|
| adamw
|
#info current lorax does not work correctly with post-/usr-move packages, needs a patch tflink has submitted
|
16:12
|
| adamw
|
thanks for looking into that!
|
16:12
|
| tflink
|
woah, what happend to koji
|
16:12
|
| adamw
|
makeover!
|
16:13
|
| adamw
|
#info koji is looking sleek and sophisticated this morning
|
16:13
|
| tflink
|
adamw: so the usrmove RPMs hit rawhide?
|
16:13
|
| adamw
|
yup
|
16:13
|
| adamw
|
hot tagged over on friday
|
16:14
|
| adamw
|
s/hot/got/
|
16:14
|
| tflink
|
isn't that going to bork any additional testing w/ TC1?
|
16:14
|
| tflink
|
nvm, I rethought that one
|
16:14
|
| adamw
|
well, depends what you mean by 'testing'
|
16:14
|
| adamw
|
you'll have to follow the upgrade procedure to get a TC1 install to update now, that's about all the consequences
|
16:14
|
| tflink
|
adamw: only from DVD, netinstall shouldn't require upgrade
|
16:15
|
| adamw
|
so, yeah, in case you get stuck upgrading TC1 or need to help someone else, refer to: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_16_-.3E_Fedora_17
|
16:15
|
| adamw
|
tflink: yeah, indeed, netinstall should give you a /usr-moved system now. and hopefully should work.
|
16:15
|
| adamw
|
#info in case you get stuck upgrading TC1 or need to help someone else, refer to: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_16_-.3E_Fedora_17

| brunowolff
|
I tried that this weekend and it worked, but there were a couple of oddities.
|
16:15
|
| adamw
|
brunowolff: what were the oddities?
|
16:15
|
| brunowolff
|
The files get moved over without copying their context type so a relabel is needed, but I didn't see a relabel in the instructions.
|
16:16
|
| brunowolff
|
The other was that luks password asking was a bit different. Before switching the root, each needed device got asked about
|
16:17
|
| adamw
|
i think one is meant to get triggered somehow as part of the instructions, i forget how precisely
|
16:17
|
| brunowolff
|
separately and asterisks weren't echoed like normal.
|
16:17
|
| brunowolff
|
This happened both in the initial conversion boot and when rebooting after the update.
|
16:18
|
| brunowolff
|
I did a relabel and rebuilt the initramfs again and both issues went away.
|
16:18
|
| adamw
|
brunowolff: ah, the 'fixfiles onboot' triggers an selinux relabel next boot.
|
16:18
|
| brunowolff
|
The relabel could probably be avoided by copy over the selinix labels when copying the files.
|
16:19
|
| adamw
|
probably.
|
16:19
|
| adamw
|
maybe file a bug on dracut suggesting that? as that's where the script lives
|
16:19
|
| adamw
|
okay, moving on!
|
16:21
|
| adamw
|
oh, i note that the first test day slot is this week but we have no event
|
16:21
|
| brunowolff
|
OK, I didn't see the fixfiles part since I was off the script by that point since I was already running rawhide. I would have likely noticed a restorecon.
|
16:21
|
| adamw
|
that's fairly usual early in the cycle as people usually want t ogo later
|
16:22
|
| brunowolff
|
And with restorecon the relabel could have been limited to a few directories and taken less time.
|
16:22
|
| adamw
|
we don't have a j_dulaney to give us a test day update, but he seems to be on top of the tickets.
|
16:23
|
| adamw
|
and we have the next blocker review meeting coming up friday, of course.
|
16:24
|
| tflink
|
yay!
|
16:24

|
#action adamw to co-ordinate with dgilmore on getting lorax updated and a new compose done
|
16:24
|
| adamw
|
fun abounds!
|
16:24
|
| tflink
|
sounds like there's going to be a new anaconda build today, too
|
16:24
|
| adamw
|
goody.
|
16:25
|
| adamw
|
okay, anything else on upcoming events?
|
16:26
|
| adamw
|
alrighty then

Current chairs: adamw kparal tflink

16:28
|
| adamw
|
take it away, autoqa wielders
|
16:28
|
| * kparal waiting for zimbra...
|
16:28
|
| kparal
|
anyway, the biggest change from last week is that rats_install is finally merged into master
|
16:29
|
| kparal
|
so kudos hongqing
|
16:29
|
| kparal
|
after that we found out about that root=<foo> anaconda option that is required right now, so it will need one minor patch to get it fully working for the composes
|
16:29
|
| kparal
|
and of course we need to have the repository branched, but that should happen tomorrow
|
16:30
|
| jskladan
|
and probably the most visible AutoQA update: http://autoqa-stg.fedoraproject.org/resultsdb/frontend we finally have the ResultsDB frontend up'n'running since last friday (even though just collecting data from staging). Looks to be working all right so far ;) (kudos to pschindl!)
|
16:30
|
| kparal
|
and yes, resultsdb being the second biggest change :)
|
16:30
|
| adamw
|
#info rats_install is merged into autoqa master, needs minor fixes tomorrow
|
16:31
|
| adamw
|
#info resultsdb is now up and running at http://autoqa-stg.fedoraproject.org/resultsdb/frontend
|
16:31
|
| adamw
|
thanks petr and hongqing!
|
16:31
|
| kparal
|
we also learned that we were not sending Bodhi emails for some time due to expired/locked account. that is now also fixed
|
16:31
|
| adamw
|
so what's the status of rats_install exactly (assuming the fixes tomorrow)?
|
16:31
|
| adamw
|
is it actually at the point now where we can truly have it running entirely automated install tests?
|
16:32
|
| adamw
|
#info bodhi mailshots were broken due to expired/locked account, now fixed
|
16:32
|
| kparal
|
I need to verify that, because I still don't have the branched repo. I need to check the watchers etc. but basically it should be well prepared
|
16:32
|
| kparal
|
I also need to get two bare-metal machines and add them to our staging server so that we can test it our properly
|
16:33
|
| kparal
|
I still haven't considered where I will take these machines from
|
16:33
|
| adamw
|
whatever you do, just don't get caught
|
16:33
|
| tflink
|
kparal: you could take them from production
|
16:33
|
| kparal
|
tflink: yes, that is what I will probably try
|
16:34
|
| tflink
|
ie lock 2 bare metal hosts in production, add them to staging and hope it doesn't explode
|
16:34
|
| * tflink wonders if autotest will be confused with 2 controllers
|
16:34
|
| kparal
|
adamw: does this sentence make you an accomplice?
|
16:34
|
| adamw
|
kparal: not as long as irc is an insecure protocol it doesn't
|
16:35
|
| kparal
|
:)
|
16:35
|
| adamw
|
tflink: you're testing! you're testing!
|
16:35
|
| adamw
|
okay, sounds like good stuff, congratulations
|
16:36
|
| kparal
|
tflink: I'll ask lmr, as long as they are locked at one controller, it shouldn't be a problem I guess
|
16:36
|
| tflink
|
kparal: otherwise, I don't think it's too much of a problem to reinstall those hosts but jlaska would know more
|
16:37
|
| kparal
|
I'll work on that
|
16:37
|
| adamw
|
cool. anything else for autoqa?
|
16:38
|
| kparal
|
that's it

#topic open floor
|
16:41
|
| adamw
|
okay, any other business anyone?
|
16:41
|
| kparal
|
I just want to ask what the current status of remote_installation is
|
16:42
|
| * tflink is waiting for management approval of the demo
|
16:43
|
| tflink
|
everything is set up and ready to go otherwise
|
16:43
|
| adamw
|
on which topic, has anyone heard from benl lately?
|
16:43
|
| kparal
|
great
|
16:43
|
| adamw
|
i'm waiting for a reply from him too
|
16:43
|
| tflink
|
he said something about traveling until tuesday, but I'm not sure
|
16:43
|
| kparal
|
I can harass him in person if you want
|
16:44
|
| kparal
|
he can't escape, he's at the same building, if not traveling
|
16:44
|
| tflink
|
he doesn't seem to be on IRC right now
|
16:44
|
| adamw
|
yeah, hasn't been for a while when i've looked
|
16:45
|
| * tflink is wondering if he should re-setup for F17 alpha instead of F16 for remote_install, though
|
16:45
|
| adamw
|
tflink: that seems reasonable, given that it's what we want to test :)
|
16:46
|
| tflink
|
adamw: my only argument against it is that the demo is for remote_install, not for testing fedora
|
16:46
|
| tflink
|
but that isn't a very strong argument
|
16:46
|
| tflink
|
either way, I'm waiting for the OK before I do much more
|
16:46
|
| adamw
|
okay
|
16:47
|
| adamw
|
kparal: if you could look out for ben it'd be appreciated
|
16:47
|
| adamw
|
or anyone who might know where he's gotten to
|
16:48
|
| kparal
|
adamw: I'll ask around tomorrow
|
16:48
|
| adamw
|
oh, hey, he modified my 1x1 slot for tomorrow.
|
16:48
|
| adamw
|
so he's aliiiiiive anyway, wherever he is.
|
16:48
|
| adamw
|
#info remote_install status: mostly ready to go into public testing, tflink waiting for go-ahead from benl
|
16:50
|
| adamw
|
alright, i guess that's about it
|
16:52
|
| adamw
|
oh, we also need to fill out tc1 testing, of course
|
16:52
|
| adamw
|
looks like robatino and hongqing have knocked out quite a bit of it so far
|
16:52
|
| adamw
|
alrighty then, meeting's over, time for heavy drinking everyone! thanks for coming
