flaccidno02:31
theholderjust wondered02:32
theholderis the cloud computer seen as one big cpu or multipule>02:32
theholder?02:32
flaccidby what?02:33
theholderthe system02:35
theholderie htop02:35
theholderor other cpu information gathering software02:35
flaccidwhat system?02:35
theholderthe cloud server02:35
theholderrunning on the cloud02:35
flacciddo you mean an instance?02:35
theholderyes02:35
flaccidits a virtual machine. it sees the virtual machine it is allocated, not the cloud controller02:36
theholderhmmm02:37
theholderso its seen as a single machine with its own ram cpu etc02:37
flaccidits a virtual machine02:37
flaccidyes, each instance gets its own 'slice'02:37
theholderam i getting it confused with paralle processing02:38
theholderthen02:38
theholder=/02:38
flaccidi guess so02:38
theholderlol my bad02:39
walt_I am trying to get a clear answer on what it the preferred way to build 'gold copies' most of that would be adding packages, which can be done via cloud-init but I have some manual s/w to install and config also12:20
walt_my prior question is specific to 10.10 /UEC212:34

dakerjust a thought ツ18:07
kim0Yeah, it's not it .. it's week on week off18:08
zoopsterkim0: enjoyed your blog post on cloud-init...would really like to see other use cases/examples of usage!18:11
kim0zoopster: great! any suggestions ?18:11
kim0I'd love examples of more things to demo/talk-about :)18:12
kim0zoopster: btw, I just pushed a screencast building a LAMP stack in 60 seconds http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DHinDARd72nQ&h=ab7cf18:12
kim0it's basically cloud-init as well18:13
zoopsterkim0: how about using it to setup a basic dev/test env...not sure what to start with, but take a base ubuntu image and putting all the parts to pull a newly built app? Dunno...anyone with ideas?18:14
kim0zoopster: actually, my next screencast is gonna be multi-tier LAMP setup (web, app, DB)18:14
kim0using cloud-init inlcudes and all18:14
zoopsterperfect18:14
elasticdogkim0: nice posts on cloud-init...seems like it would be ideal to bootstrap a configuration management system (chef/puppet/etc) from a pristine machine image18:38
kim0elasticdog: Indeed!18:39
kim0elasticdog: that would be a good idea18:39
kim0I know mathiaz had created some great puppet bootstrapping guides .. however I'll try to improve any missing bits around that18:40
kim0elasticdog: nice site btw18:43
elasticdogthanks :-)18:43
kim0hehe18:44
elasticdogI need to actually write stuff on a regular basis18:44
kim0Yeah18:44
kim0elasticdog: why did you choose to teach yourself factor18:45
elasticdoga couple years ago I kept hearing about it from various places, and like learning new things18:46
elasticdogI had never really messed with stack-based languages before, so it was somewhat mind-expanding18:46
kim0I see18:47
kim0elasticdog: do you use ubuntu server or cloud somehow .. if you can tell, I'm interested to hear18:48
elasticdogkim0: yep, I've been working on setting up a test UEC environment on a few machines at work18:48
kim0elasticdog: how is that going18:49
elasticdogit's going well so far, but I'm admittedly pretty new to most things cloud18:49
kim0elasticdog: If you're looking for things to write about, contributing your UEC setup experiences would be awesome :D18:51
kim0elasticdog: give it a tought and let me know if you're interested. I'd love to have contributors such as yourself start sharing their info/findings18:53
elasticdogkim0: that's a good idea...my issues usually aren't that I don't have things to write about, but that I'm a slow/perfectionist writer, but I'll let you know if I post anything18:54
kim0cool hehe :)18:54
