Eucalyptus packaging for fedora and Dependencies
by Deependra Singh Shekhawat
Hi all,
I have checked that there was a discussion which happened in this list
regarding packaging eucalyptus for fedora. I took up this task of
identifying what all packages are required for eucalyptus to be installed on
a fedora box. I am trying to put the list of packages I have found are
needed for a setup, please correct me if you think I am wrong.
Main packages:
euca-axis2c
euca-rampartc
eucalyptus
eucalyptus-cc
eucalyptus-cloud
eucalyptus-common-java
eucalyptus-gl
eucalyptus-nc
eucalyptus-sc
eucalyptus-walrus
groovy
Dependencies:
ant
ant-nodeps
java-1.6.0-openjdk
httpd
bridge-utils
ntp
dhcp
httpd
Please note that there had been a discussion on axis2c and rampartc to be
included in fedora and check if the upstream is interested in doing that. I
am not sure what happened in that front but just digging through the mailing
list I have found this:
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2010-February/000058.html
As far as I see eucalyptus folks are applying some patch sent by upstream to
fix some memory leaks issue. Maybe the eucalyptus folks can comment on this
leg.
Beside that I have seen success in getting euca2ools into fedora more
information in the following link:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=553769
Maybe after expert comment on this mail we can create a small page on wiki
about eucalyptus support in fedora on fedoraproject.org/wiki
Cheers

Meeting reminder, agenda, action items, and TIME CHANGE!
by Robyn Bergeron
Hi everyone,
Since there was no negative feedback about the "new" proposed time -
we're going to try moving the Cloud SIG meeting one hour into the
future, to be at its original time: Thursdays, at 2100 UTC. It looks
like this will give us some additional people, so this should be a
good thing. We'll also be able to utilize #fedora-meeting for this
meeting now.
Meeting Details: Thursday @2100 UTC (In NA - East coast, 5pm; West coast, 2pm.)
Meeting channel: #fedora-meeting, irc.freenode.net
Other details are available at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG.
Agenda:
* Status check: Action items from previous meeting.
* huff to post AMI feature set to mailing list
* ke4qqq Research and report back on possible costs of testing, if
amazon has a recommendation on testing with large groups of testers,
check into cost approval with ... whoever would pay for it.
* jforbes submit for F14 feature list
* rbergeron to figure out an even better time for a meeting
* jeevan_ullas send note to mailing list with list of packages,
dependencies, etc. that we might want to get people to volunteer to
work on packaging, even if they are more longer-term / strategic
items. Anyone else wanting to contribute to this list - please do so.
* rbergeron to take list from jeevan_ullas mail and get it on wiki
* Status Update: kernel status
We still have room on the agenda for other items, if anyone has
something they'd like to cover.
If you have an action item from last week that you've worked on,
please come and let us know your progress - or drop a mail to the list
if you're unable to make it this week.
See you tomorrow!

Meeting time change proposal - move from 2000 UTC to 2100 UTC
by Robyn Bergeron
Greetings everyone,
I've spoken with a few other people who didn't respond to the original
meeting time request, as well as looking at the meeting times Justin
was able to get from the people who did respond.
I'd like to propose that we move the meeting time forward by one hour,
to 2100 UTC from 2000 UTC. (For those in North America, this is 5pm
on the east coast, and 2pm on the west coast.) This will give us
availability of a few more people, as well as the opportunity to
utilize #fedora-meeting instead of being in #fedora-cloud, which
generally gives us more visibility and the possibility of picking up
more volunteers who like to lurk, watch, and pipe up (and hopefully
help us out a bit).
I realize that this time is still not optimal for community friends
who are in other parts of the world (really late in europe,
unreasonably early in some parts of APAC). I'm hoping that (a) as we
gather more steam we can start to build more dialogue on the mailing
list so that it's easier for people in other regions to participate,
and (b) as we start nailing down a more firm task list we can identify
some of those tasks in meeting notes and on the wiki so that one
doesn't necessarily have to be in a meeting to volunteer to do things.
We of course want to be including everyone, and non-meeting-time
participation (aka: mailing list!) is a great way to build that up.
If nobody has any serious objections over the next 24 hours to this
proposal, I'll change the information on the wiki to reflect the
change, and send an "it's official! we changed times!" note to the
mailing list.
Cheers,
-Robyn

Meeting agenda - now on wiki!
by Robyn Bergeron
Greetings everyone,
First - I'd like to reiterate that it was AWESOME to see lots of
participation today (or yesterday, in some time zones!) in the Cloud
SIG meeting on IRC. I realize that the meeting time is currently not
the best option for some people who want to participate, and one of my
items over the next few days is to figure out an even -more- optimal
time for a meeting - I know that jforbes had sent out a request to
find a good time for everyone, but unfortunately some people missed
the message, and others who had haven't shown up since the meeting
time changed based on their preferences. So you'll be seeing some
information on that soon, probably tomorrow, as my pillow misses my
head right now. :) With any luck, we can get a time where we can meet
up in #fedora-meeting instead of #fedora-cloud, which generally helps
to get more eyeballs, participation, momentum, etc.
In the interim:
I've added a subsection to the Cloud SIG wiki page in the meetings
portion of the page so that people can see the upcoming meeting
agenda, as seen here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG#Meetings
As you can see - I've added an agenda list to follow up on the action
items from the previous week's meeting, just so we can make sure we're
not leaving any loose ends. This should not take long - and in fact,
if you're an owner of any of those items, feel free to note on the
wiki if you've completed those items so we can skip those things,
taking up less time. If your action item needs more love than the
basic "done, not done, still working on it" type update - add the
topic to the meeting agenda (more on that below).
After that - the agenda is fairly open. I've added an item for kernel
status, as that was the first thing covered today, and presumably
we'll have (hopefully) more progress to update everyone on next week.
Beyond that item... if you have an item you would like to discuss in
the meeting, please feel free to add it to the wiki. More
contributors = more stuff to cover in meetings. This is a -good
thing-, but it helps to have a bit more structure as we scale in size,
so we can accommodate everyone's needs and/or questions. Even today I
felt a little bad about hijacking the meeting to ask "what the heck is
going on?" without it being a planned discussion. (Sorry 'bout that!)
>From what I can see - we've been doing agenda requests via email, but
I think having it on the wiki may give those potential contributors
browsing the wiki page a way to more concretely see what we're
planning on discussing, without having to fish through mail archives
if they're not currently subscribed. If something catches their eye
that they're interested in doing, they'll hopefully come to the
meeting and volunteer to take something on.
Cheers, and see you next week!

Introduction: To Cloud SIG
by Deependra Singh Shekhawat
Hi all,
I would like to introduce myself to the group. Myself Deependra Singh. One
can find more information about me here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Deepsa
Been a channel operator of #fedora previously and currently working at
Infosys Technologies at Bangalore (India) as a UNIX/Linux engineer. Also on
weekends I talk fedora with people I meet on coffee shops (in daytime) and
bars (in the evening).
Planning to organize few fedora workshops in Bangalore area. Actively
working the fedora ambassadors from Bangalore on the same.
I am not that active Fedora project member but now would like to contribute
to the Cloud SIG. I have been using eucalyptus on fedora for quite some time
plus I have also worked on boxgrinder. Cloud computing domain is my primary
interest these days. Previously I worked on Systems Security.
I use fedora 13 with KVM. On top of that I have installed Eucalyptus 1.6.2
which just works for me!
Please let me know if the SIG has any "TODO" stuff which needs to be taken
care of. I am not good at packaging (never done it before) but if some work
on that end also comes I will surely love to do that.
Also please let me know when do we have the IRC meetups, I would love to
join such meetups.
Cheers
Deependra

ec2 image status
by Robert Pierce
Question to you folks about the status if ec2 images. This seems like an
appropriate place to post this kind of general question, but if I'm wrong,
please forgive me.
I've read through the archives, and it seems like there's been some progress
making images greater than fc8, but I don't see any links to any actual
public images. Is there something available?
More specifically, I've tried a yum upgrade path from fc8 to fc13 on ec2.
It seems to work except for udevd, which fails because it needs a newer
kernel than 2.6.21.7-2.ec2.v1.2.fc8xen. I expect there are probably other
kernel dependencies that are broken, but I haven't yet found them. Is there
an rpm for a newer xen kernel? Looking around, I've seen indications that
2.6.25 might be good enough for udevd to work.
Any help or pointers are much appreciated.
