18:00:34 <henderbj> Hi, again!
18:01:23 <nirik> morning everyone.
18:01:26 <nirik> #topic New folks introductions and Apprentice tasks
18:01:38 * relrod here, sorry
18:01:45 <nirik> any new folks like to introduce themselves? or apprentices with questions/comments/ideas/feedback
18:01:57 <nirik> smooge is off at LISA conference.
18:02:05 * pingou kinda here
18:02:05 <nirik> pingou is also off
18:02:10 <nirik> ha. Or not.
18:02:33 <pingou> :)
18:02:41 <henderbj> I am back... possibly with more contributing presence (i hope)
18:02:50 <danielbruno> I would like to know how to proceed on ticket #3617
18:03:02 <danielbruno> it is a easyfix ticket
18:03:17 <nirik> henderbj: welcome back. ;)
18:03:33 <nirik> danielbruno: is that the planet one? yeah, my fault... it's on my list, but I keep not getting to it.
18:03:41 <nirik> I can try and get it today or tomorrow. ;)
18:03:51 <nirik> would be great to get fixed.
18:04:06 <danielbruno> nirik, I'll wait your feedback ;)
18:04:13 <henderbj> I want to work on #4290
18:04:15 * oddshocks here, had net probs
18:04:27 <nirik> I think all the parts are good, just needs commiting and running now. ;)
18:04:31 <nirik> .ticket 4290
18:04:32 <zodbot> nirik: #4290 ([easyfix] ansible check-host playbook) – Fedora Infrastructure - https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/4290
18:04:43 <nirik> henderbj: cool. :) that should be a fun one.
18:04:52 <henderbj> it's about create a check-playbook...
18:05:18 <henderbj> i need to know on which server i can start testing my ansible script
18:05:21 <threebean> that would be nice to have :)
18:05:42 <nirik> henderbj: well, I would say start with some local host to get the initial setup working...
18:05:43 <henderbj> My* refers to one that i will write ;)
18:06:20 <nirik> any fedora or centos host should work.
18:06:24 <henderbj> Ok... on my local fedora server... but i then can refer mostly to fedora servers... later we will need adapt it to RHEL ones
18:06:30 <nirik> yeah...
18:06:37 <nirik> shouldn't be too much different really
18:07:00 <henderbj> Ok... got it... i will update my findings on ticket when i have some :)
18:07:08 <nirik> sounds great.
18:07:34 <nirik> #topic Applications status / discussion
18:07:42 <nirik> any applications news this week or upcoming?
18:08:02 <nirik> I'll note that we enter final f21 freeze next tuesday, so if there's things we want to land before freeze we should do so soon. ;)
18:08:06 <pingou> I'll need to do a pkgdb-cli release at one point
18:08:27 <pingou> but I'll have to coordinate with lmacken as the structure of the project changes
18:08:34 <nirik> ok
18:08:35 <pingou> *should* be transparent, but... :)
18:08:54 <pingou> I guess most things will come out after freeze
18:09:24 <pingou> the next pkgdb2 release (beside backport) will include the mechanism to integrate with the-new-hotness
18:09:33 <pingou> so I'll see with threebean :)
18:09:42 <nirik> cool.
18:09:45 <nirik> looking forward to it.
18:09:53 <pingou> and maybe I have a fedocal release pending
18:10:14 <pingou> I'm just afraid to come back just after the beginning of freeze and thus miss the current window
18:10:16 <nirik> oh, I see the current upstream monitoring bugs mention the github repo for anitya, but perhaps we could change that now to say the site?
18:10:28 <nirik> (so people can go look more easily)
18:10:36 <pingou> +1
18:10:40 <nirik> well, we can always get exceptions.
18:10:50 <nirik> does tyll control that? or we do somewhere?
18:11:15 * danofsatx is here
18:11:19 <pingou> the script is tyll, the wiki is... the wiki :)
18:11:52 <nirik> ok.
18:12:25 <nirik> any other applications type news?
18:12:27 * pingou asked tyll
18:13:20 <threebean> i'm trying to get a bunch of our apps off of rhel6 to rhel7
18:13:24 <nirik> I was hoping to move blockerbugs over to ansible/rhel7, but it needs some packages branched/built.
18:13:25 <threebean> hopefully before freeze next week
18:13:38 <nirik> and possibly some coding work
18:13:39 <threebean> trying to get through fedora-tagger, tahrir, fmn.web, github2fedmsg
18:13:55 <nirik> nice.
18:13:57 <threebean> also, I got staging koji accepting builds again for testing stuff there.
18:14:18 <nirik> I fixed up some issues on buildvm-01.stg yesterday too...
18:14:19 <threebean> and a new release of the releng-dash app is up with some bugfixes.
18:14:53 <tflink> we have a blockerbugs bugfix that should be deployed before freeze - I expect it to be merged tomorrow
18:15:11 <tflink> nirik: did you want to get blockerbugs migrated to el7/ansible before freeze?
18:15:27 <nirik> tflink: I would like to, but I know time is tight now...
18:16:21 <nirik> it was missing 3 packages I think?
18:16:24 <nirik> blockerbugs itself.
18:16:49 <nirik> python-flask-sqlalchemy
18:16:50 <tflink> yeah, I was hoping mock would be fixed so I could do local test builds but there's been no response on that bug
18:16:57 <nirik> python-sqlalchemy0.7
18:17:07 <nirik> (which might just be python-sqlalchemy on epel7)
18:17:11 <pingou> it is
18:17:20 <nirik> tflink: scratch builds? ;)
18:17:58 <tflink> nirik: it's a simple change in mock config, I've just been distracted
18:18:03 <nirik> o
18:18:05 <nirik> ok
18:18:24 <nirik> anyhow, if you have time to get the packages sorted, I would be happy to migrate the instances.
18:19:25 <nirik> if not we can do it after freeze. ;)
18:20:34 <tflink> I'll see if I can get it done but another question is whether migrating blockerbugs a day or two before freeze is all that wise :)
18:21:22 <nirik> well, the freeze is extra long this time and we can get exceptions to fix things if we broke it.
18:21:31 <nirik> also, I can keep the old instances around to go back to.
18:22:26 <nirik> so, I would think it would be ok
18:22:37 <nirik> #topic Sysadmin status / discussion
18:22:58 <nirik> ok, on the sysadmin side... I have been running our master playbook the last few days and cleaning things up.
18:23:17 <nirik> Also, we got controlpersist + ssh pipelining working on lockbox01, so ansible runs should be much faster.
18:23:53 <nirik> #info ansible faster: controlpersist + pipelining on lockbox01
18:24:03 <nirik> #info all builders updated
18:24:30 <nirik> I might try and do another updates round tomorrow or monday with no outage/reboots...
18:24:36 <nirik> just to sync things before the freeze.
18:25:00 <nirik> If someone is looking for an ansible migration to do, another nice one would be: nameservers.
18:26:13 <nirik> I might try and also get in a new mirrorlist server before freeze.
18:26:27 <nirik> #topic nagios/alerts recap
18:26:53 * nirik digs up url, should have put it somewhere.
18:28:30 <nirik> .tiny https://admin.fedoraproject.org/nagios/cgi-bin//summary.cgi?report=1&displaytype=3&timeperiod=last7days&smon=11&sday=1&syear=2014&shour=0&smin=0&ssec=0&emon=11&eday=13&eyear=2014&ehour=24&emin=0&esec=0&hostgroup=all&servicegroup=all&host=all&alerttypes=3&statetypes=2&hoststates=7&servicestates=120&limit=25

18:28:51 <nirik> big producers this week:
18:29:00 <nirik> proxy07... seems to be having some kind of network issues.
18:29:14 <nirik> proxy03... varnish has died on it twice. Not sure why. ;(
18:30:07 <nirik> #topic Upcoming Tasks/Items
18:30:07 <nirik> https://apps.fedoraproject.org/calendar/list/infrastructure/
18:30:20 <nirik> anything upcoming anyone would like to schedule or note?
18:30:22 <threebean> notifs-backend warnings have been a theme for a few months.. but I think they should be on their way out now.  the pkgdb floods got it this week.
18:30:26 <nirik> we do have freeze starting on the 18th
18:30:59 <adimania> .ticket 4392
18:31:00 <zodbot> adimania: #4392 ([easyfix] migrate blockerbugs from puppet to ansible) – Fedora Infrastructure - https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/4392
18:31:09 <nirik> threebean: yeah. Those might be better after we go to FMN only
18:32:11 <nirik> Also, we have our FAD coming up in early december.
18:32:33 * nirik notes we will be in freeze for it, which is kinda anoying for the ansible work, but we can stage it and push it after freeze.
18:33:01 <threebean> ew, yeah.  I didn't realize that.
18:33:20 <nirik> release is the day I am flying back from the FAD. ;)
18:33:24 <adimania> sounds good to me.
18:33:26 <nirik> but I think it will be ok.
18:34:09 <nirik> #topic Open Floor
18:34:15 <nirik> anyone have anything for open floor?
18:35:21 <threebean> hey - so this might be interesting to check out https://hacksummit.org/
18:36:03 <nirik> huh, cool.
18:36:05 <nirik> all virtual?
18:37:06 <nirik> alrighty, if nothing else will close out in a minute...
18:37:23 <henderbj> There is a hackaton: https://koding.com/Hackathon
18:37:29 <henderbj> Sorry if off-topic
18:38:37 <nirik> alright. Thanks for coming everyone.
