I need mgmt approval but will most likely publish it during the cloud days organized by kim0. Hope you like that idea [15:45] cool. sure. [15:45] TeTeT: o/ [15:46] How's that excercise gonna be used for the cloud days ? [15:46] smoser: I'm also about to rewrite uec-describe-cloud using python boto instead of popen euca-describe-*, should be nicer code then [15:47] kim0: I would plan for a 20-30 minute session that goes step by step through the process of creating an instance which is hosted on an EBS volume. I would love to have screen sharing for this, will check if we can use spreed for that [15:47] TeTeT, yeah, that'd be nice. and again, i apologize for dropping the ball on that. [15:48] TeTeT, most of that could be done via 'screen' screen sharing [15:48] graphical might look better, but you can very easily share a screen session , allowing viewers to be read-only [15:48] kirkland has used that before for these talks. [15:49] TeTeT: see the source for the screenbin package/project [15:49] smoser: cool, I would have to host it on my own cloud as I doubt that IS would appreciate me giving outsider access to our virtual lab [15:50] * kim0 waves at active community members Daviey, smoser, kirkland, RoAkSoAx, soren .. and everyone around here [15:50] TeTeT, well, we could maybe work around that. [15:50] Rock the Ubuntu cloud world, and register a session at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuCloudDays/ :) [15:50] kim0: hi [15:50] kirkland: hey [15:50] maybe tunneling out of there... but yeah, that might get icky [15:51] kirkland: nice, so I could run it from ec2... [15:51] kirkland: looking forward to your session :) [15:51] smoser: maybe tunneling to servera on the training lab and using the cloud credentials would be good enough. so any attacker would still need the password for servera [15:59] kim0: session? [16:00] kirkland: indeed .. check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuCloudDays/ [16:00] Everyone is invited to please contribute a session [16:00] The first ever Ubuntu Cloud Days [16:00] yaaaay :) === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [16:45] kim0; have you asked the openstack guys about it? [16:45] I pinged soren about it .. I'll go write #openstack now .. thanks === gtaylor_afk is now known as gtaylor === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [18:46] kim0: I've seen in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuCloudDays/ that there's a reference to a "GaimHowto" [18:46] welcome to the past? :P [18:46] Edulix: the wonders of copy/paste [18:46] * kim0 goes fixing ;) [18:46] =) [18:50] Edulix: What about hosting a hadoop session [18:50] * kim0 awaits a yes [18:50] * Edulix takes a look at the dates [18:56] kim0: what is exactly what is done in the sessions, they are some kind of irc tutorials? [18:57] Edulix: exactly [18:57] basic and easy stuff [18:57] 15 mins of talk time expanded in irc ;) [18:57] that seems reasonable [18:58] I'm not using ubuntu cloud currently though :P I can explain how to create a simple hadoop application. is there any example session log I can take a look at? [19:02] Edulix: if u want .. there's currently ubuntu developer week training running [19:02] join #ubuntu-classroom [19:02] to get a feel [19:02] #ubuntu-classroom-chat .. is where people will chat and ask questions [19:02] * Edulix has joined there [19:02] * kim0 afk for a bit === daker_ is now known as daker [22:11] cloudinit is pretty damn awesome [22:11] now if other OSes would jsut port it [22:20] crazed: glad you're enjoying ubuntu ;) [22:21] it's the only os worth using on ec2 really [22:22] haha awesome :) [22:23] smoser is gonna like hearing that :) [22:23] windows takes like 30 mins to boot, worthless [22:23] centos has no official AMIs, and the rightscale ones are botched and gross [22:24] woot [22:24] crazed: Amazon publishes a CentOS AMI under the name Amazon Linux, and they have included cloud-init from Ubuntu. [22:24] i thought so [22:25] but it's not actually centos, it's got up-to-date packages hehe [22:25] :) [22:26] lol [22:26] * kim0 tweets that ;) [22:26] lol [22:29] cloudformation, chef, and cloudinit combined is pretty powerful [22:29] only problem i'm seeing is how to make sure certain parts of the stack are configured before scripts are run on other parts [22:51] is it possible to set arbitrary variables in the userdata that can be used in user scripts? [22:52] i'm trying to set JSON data that will be used by chef, rather than having teh userscript create it (which doesn't do well for reusing the same cloud-configs) [22:52] why not read from an external url [22:52] i plan on storing stuff that shouldn't be accessible from anywhere [22:53] i did think of that though.. it was a good idea until i was dealing with database paswords [22:56] hm.. could put them in a git repo i suppose and pull down over ssh === soren_ is now known as soren
