=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [03:55] anyone know if its possible to convince cloudinit to set an EC2 instance's hostname to its external name, rather than internal? [03:56] edit the module or create a new one i think [04:01] flaccid, yea - im looking at the source now .. I would have thought it a common request and figured it was something simple ;) bah! [04:01] feel free to contribute [04:02] flaccid, if i could get my head around bzr / quilt and their friends .. i would ;) .. git I can handle .. bzr and quilt make me sore ;) [04:02] i agree [04:03] infact .. its not even quilt .. i can use that ;) .. its just bzr! ;) [04:03] bzr is pretty straight forward. i'm sure many ubuntu peeps can help you if you have a problem [04:04] I'm sure its just that i'm way too used to git to allow myself to get used to it! [04:05] hey im' like that too for sure [04:06] yup.. launchpad doesnt exactly help either .. never have the slightest clue which branch and repo to use! anyway .. guess I'll figure another way around it as I need a fix pretty quickly .. i think preserve_hostname: true and setting it in runcmd's should work [04:07] yeah its confusing as. i don't know much about cloud-init yet. hoping someone else here can assist you === pwds_ is now known as pwds [09:07] hi all, is cloud-init only for ubuntu? is there any RPM package for CentOS installing ? [09:24] It was written in the hope that other distros would pick it up. [09:25] ...whether they have or not... No idea. [09:38] soren: thank you. i want to install cloud-init on my CentOS, but did not find any rpm package [09:43] i don't know if i can convert the cloud-init deb package into rpm package... [09:55] superxgl: I think a program named "alien" might help convert it .. doesn't mean it'll work though :) [10:05] kim0: thank you. i will have a try :) [10:11] superxgl: well, amazon use it in their "official" linux ami, which looks relatively centos based [10:21] superxgl: infact, if you launch one of their official linux ami's you can grab the src.rpm using 'get_reference_source -p cloud-init' [10:22] TREllis: Thank you very much :) [10:22] not sure why they make you use that script to get to the source packages, but I guess it's something to do with all their repos & mirrors only being accessible from AWS [10:23] TREllis: hmm... i don't have an account for amazon [10:24] superxgl: get the rpm from the amazon linux ami. [10:25] they have a version of cloud-init and it works [10:25] flaccid : i don't use EC2 so i can not access the linux ami :( [10:25] oh crap i some already said sorry [10:26] start using it. [10:26] err *someone said [10:26] hmm.... [10:27] i'd launch an instance and get it but i cbf :) [10:28] flaccid: thx :) [10:28] superxgl: I'm feeling helpful today... http://trellisnet.co.uk/junk/cloud-init-0.5.14-22.amzn1.src.rpm [10:28] thats the source rpm [10:29] you can get the real rpm out of the ami or the repos [10:29] where do i start am ubuntu/linux newbie [10:29] or rpmbuild -ba that ;-) [10:30] TREllis : oh, cool....thank you very much for ur kindly help :) [10:30] ubuntucloud304: reading the docs [10:30] and thank you flaccid, thank you all of you here .. [10:30] -=flaccid specifics [10:31] whichever you can find [10:31] its like getting a car and saying 'where do i start' [10:32] well how long is a piece of string.. [10:32] from a drivin school first [10:32] anyway i'm a bit too sarcastic tonight, so i will go watch a movie [10:32] cool [10:33] superxgl: http://cloud.ubuntu.com/ [10:33] that's a good starting point, really depends on what you aim to do [10:34] ubuntucloud304: are you aiming to start with "cloud" stuff, or generally "Ubuntu" itself [10:34] i'l now hit the road [10:34] cloud [10:34] TREllis: thank you very much ! :) [10:34] ubuntucloud304: ah ok .. ping me when u're back [10:34] will try to help [10:35] superxgl: woops that was directed to ubuntucloud304 ;-) [10:36] TREllis: aha, it is also helpful to me :) [11:09] kim0 ubuntucloud304 help [11:12] madafu: what's the problem?

[11:43] yeah [11:43] madafu: This is the main installation page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/CDInstall [11:44] thank you [11:44] madafu: for some extra reading, this following page is a good jumping page http://cloud.ubuntu.com/docs/uec-book/ [12:29] TREllis: i could not rebuild the cloudinit-src.rpm, it said that : error: Failed build dependencies: python-devel-abi is needed by cloud-init-0.5.14-22.noarch [12:30] superxgl: never mind, you'll need to grab the binary from the amazon linux ami then [12:30] i have installed something like python-devel, python-abi, and it did not works. and i googled a lot , did not find the python-devel-abi [12:31] superxgl: and/or try python26-devel since Centos5 uses python2.4 by default [12:32] superxgl: yum whatprovides python-devel-abi [12:32] might help [12:32] i did yum python-devel-abi, but it saids not have this one... [12:32] just try that command [12:33] i am trying install python26 now [12:34] it's probably easier just to spin up an instance and user yumdownloader to grab the binary [12:34] -r [12:35] i did yum whatprovides python-devel-abi , still not found... [12:40] superxgl: 2 secs, I'll pull it out of one of my instances [12:41] TREllis : oh...thank you very much, u help me a lot today :) [12:46] superxgl: http://trellisnet.co.uk/junk/cloud-init-0.5.14-23.amzn1.noarch.rpm interestingly the one they provide the source of is version -22 not -23 [12:50] TREllis: oh, ya , it did is -22... thank you for ur help , i am really appreciate for all of your help here :) [12:51] superxgl: sure, np [12:53] TREllis : cool...the rpm works pretty well :) tnx:) [12:54] superxgl: you are using it for spinning up centos emi's in UEC? [12:57] TREllis: i am using it for execute some scripts once the instance boots, for i want to run hadoop on the eucalyptus .and i am using centos EMI now [12:59] superxgl: right ok [12:59] TREllis : hopes it works :) [12:59] superxgl: I've done a bit of hadoop in UEC in the past [12:59] superxgl: but generally with the Ubuntu EMI's :-) [13:00] TREllis : oh ,really ? [13:00] it is cool.. [13:00] so how did u do that ? [13:01] i just followed the guide : http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/AmazonEC2 [13:01] superxgl: there is a number of ways, there are a few puppet modules for hadoop floating around on the web, I used cloud-init with some already configured hadoop configs since it was only for some tests [13:01] and i modified the scripts to make it works on eucalyptus [13:03] TREllis : hmm...cool.. [13:04] puppet modules ? what are they? [13:15] hmm...looks like the coming release 0.4.0 of apache whirr will support eucalyptus .. === hggdh_ is now known as hggdh [15:21] Is anyone using ebsmount on ec2?

Is there a way to do it in a Private eucalyptus cloud? [17:58] RobertLaptop: cloud-init can hook into puppet [17:59] TREllis, clound-init any documentations? I guess in my week long research on running a cloud I missed that. [17:59] RobertLaptop: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CloudInit & http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk/view/head:/doc/examples/cloud-config.txt for a fully commented cloud-config file for cloud-init [18:01] RobertLaptop: actually, this file has the puppet cloud-init docs: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk/view/head:/doc/examples/cloud-config-puppet.txt [18:01] TREllis, thanks will read [18:01] you can't specify a specific puppet class in cloud-init, but you can get it to do the bootstrap, [18:02] you'll have to have a node definition that knows that ec2 node name or hostname glob and match that to classes or use some examples that mathias produced a while back: http://ubuntumathiaz.wordpress.com/ check out all his blog posts on puppet+ec2/uec [18:03] Reading [18:04] Yea that was my one big question was how to pass that info to puppet for something that will get created on the fly.
