| kim0 | Hi folks, just letting you know "Ubuntu Cloud Days" starting about now in #ubuntu-classroom .. Thanks | 15:59 |

| navanjr | when building and bundling ubuntu images for UEC, does partitioning matter? is there a reason i would not want to use LVM | 16:29 |
| obino | navanjr: the AWS partitioning wants the first partition to be root, the second to be ephemeral and the third one swap | 16:45 |
| obino | ops ... sorry swap is the third partition | 16:47 |
| * obino gets it wrong all the time | 16:47 | |

| sveiss | Hi all, I was directed here from #ubuntu-classroom. I asked a question regarding kernel upgrades. We currently use the official maverick EC2 images, for which there's a kernel upgrade available. On the first boot of an instance (via a user data script), we do an apt-get dist-upgrade followed by a reboot to pick up the new kernel -- is this the best way to handle this? | 16:56 |
| EvilPhoenix | kim0: question for you. what's the minimum in terms of required resources to set up a private cloud? | 17:01 |
| kim0 | EvilPhoenix: for UEC that would be 2 machinse | 17:01 |
| kim0 | one of them at least has to have Intel VT virtualization extensions | 17:01 |
| kim0 | EvilPhoenix: check out the install guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/CDInstall | 17:01 |
| EvilPhoenix | kim0: thanks. FYI, on that page, there's a broken image link :/ | 17:03 |
| EvilPhoenix | about 2/3rds of the way down the page | 17:03 |
| sveiss | did my question on kernel updates at boot about 20 minutes ago show up? I'm wondering if I hit an IRC line length limit, or am just being ignored *grin*. | 17:17 |
| jero_ | id did, you did not wait long enough though | 17:18 |
| sveiss | fair enough, I wasn't too sure on the wait etiquette here | 17:19 |
| jero_ | sveiss: on ec2, the kernel is defined at instance creation time | 17:20 |
| jero_ | your instance has an AKI attached to its properties | 17:20 |
| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| jero_ | so basically even if you remove the kernel files from /boot, you'll be able to boot anyway | 17:21 |
| sveiss | The AKI used by the Maverick AMIs is pv-grub | 17:22 |
| sveiss | so it's loading the kernel from /boot on the images, but the kernel included in those images is out of date | 17:22 |
| jero_ | then it's another story | 17:23 |
| pweiss | what is the best way to set the instance hostname using cloud-init? | 17:23 |
| jero_ | sveiss: sorry I misread you were using maverick | 17:26 |
| sveiss | np, and thank you for answering :) | 17:27 |
| jero_ | sveiss: if you're using the default disk images, i believe there's nothing much you can do. maybe condition the reboot upon the installation of a newer kernel | 17:32 |
| sveiss | jero_: yup, that's what we're doing currently in our first boot script | 17:33 |
| kim0 | what's the problem ? | 17:34 |
| kim0 | why not just apt-get upgrade && reboot ? | 17:34 |
| kim0 | ah .. you're already doing that | 17:34 |
| sveiss | these instances are brought up automatically by Amazon's auto-scaling, so I'm trying to keep the boot time down | 17:34 |
| kim0 | sveiss: check out kexec | 17:35 |
| sveiss | thanks, I will do | 17:35 |
| jero_ | smoser: I confirm that my m1.large instances stopped freezing randomly since I downgraded the kernel from 2.6.32-312-ec2 to an older kernel | 17:36 |
| jero_ | smoser: (re monday's dialog) | 17:37 |
| robbiew | kim0: hey...any progress with x2go for UDS? | 17:38 |
| kim0 | robbiew: I fired a couple of emails, didn't get replies though .. I'll start pestering them right now :) | 17:39 |
| robbiew | kim0: cool..thnx! | 17:39 |
| kim0 | robbiew: will keep you updated | 17:39 |
| smoser | jero_, "an older kernel" | 17:43 |
| smoser | jero_, i would really like it if you could open a bug and explain that | 17:43 |
| jero_ | smoser: yes that's what i'm doing currently :-) | 17:43 |
| smoser | it would seem that this is "regression release" if i understand you. | 17:44 |
| smoser | please copy myself (smoser) and stefan-bader-canonical on bug | 17:45 |
| jero_ | yes | 17:51 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: hey | 17:55 |
| Yuvi_ | hello | 17:55 |
| kim0 | SpamapS: about ready ? | 17:56 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: so what's up | 17:57 |
| Yuvi_ | for past one week i have been reading about ubuntu cloud | 17:57 |
| Yuvi_ | its really really interesting | 17:58 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: join the club | 17:59 |
| Yuvi_ | sorry, to which one? | 18:00 |
| SpamapS | No streaming.. but sure. :) | 18:00 |
| kim0 | SpamapS: awesome .. thought you were gone | 18:01 |
| navanjr | obino: I have been working thru this: i think i need to research the proper setup of images as it relates to the partitions... can you share a link to get me going in the right direction? | 18:08 |
| navanjr | http://goo.gl/QJYNu | 18:09 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: sorry man .. I got dragged following the new session | 18:12 |
| Yuvi_ | Yes, its okay. Me too following the session | 18:13 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: hey .. if you want to start hacking on that python tool | 18:13 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: i'd recommend playing a bit with this tutorial first http://boto.s3.amazonaws.com/ec2_tut.html | 18:13 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: once you're at peace with boto and aws .. | 18:13 |
| kim0 | ping me and I'll help you get started | 18:13 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: deal ? :) | 18:13 |
| Yuvi_ | Deal ;) | 18:14 |
| Yuvi_ | how much time i can take? | 18:14 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: whatever you want man :) it's your call | 18:15 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: probably a few days .. ping me back when you're comfortable & ready | 18:15 |
| Yuvi_ | Yes, sure :) | 18:16 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: Awesome .. you're gonna knock em dead :) | 18:16 |
| kim0 | Yuvi_: I'll jump back to the ensemble session now | 18:17 |
| Yuvi_ | :) :) lets see | 18:17 |
| kim0 | feel free to ping me anytime though | 18:17 |
| Yuvi_ | its 11:47 PM here, I will catch you tomorrow :) | 18:18 |
| kim0 | absolutely | 18:18 |
| Yuvi_ | do i need to explore the whole thing? | 18:19 |

| kim0 | hallyn: o/ | 18:52 |
| kim0 | ready for your irc talk | 18:52 |
| hallyn | well i just last-minute had to set up a replacement demo machine on amazon (the rackspace one has a kernel that wont' suffice) | 18:53 |
| hallyn | but i think so | 18:53 |
| kim0 | great | 18:54 |
| navanjr | can someone help me understand the best practice for building my own ubuntu images for UEC | 19:23 |
| navanjr | should i be creating it from a ubuntu install iso | 19:24 |
| navanjr | or should i modify an existing published AMI | 19:24 |
| navanjr | can i start an instance modify it and turn a snapshot into an ami? | 19:24 |
| kim0 | navanjr: Hi .. yeah | 19:25 |
| navanjr | howdy! | 19:25 |
| kim0 | navanjr: if you can wait .. tomorrow Scott is presenting a session on the details of that .. check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuCloudDays | 19:25 |
| kim0 | navanjr: instead of creating a full custom image .. I would advise booting a stock ubuntu image, then using cloud-init to do your needed customizations | 19:27 |
| navanjr | ok ill get familar before tomorrow session | 19:28 |
| kim0 | navanjr: great :) | 19:28 |
| navanjr | thanks! cya tomorrow | 19:29 |

| navanjr | i cant seem to locate the ubuntu users password on the console | 19:41 |
| navanjr | goes by too fast and i cant pause it | 19:41 |
| kim0 | navanjr: u should ssh by keys | 19:41 |
| navanjr | also it is not listed on the KVM serial console like suggested here... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/Images | 19:42 |
| kim0 | navanjr: you can have the password set though | 19:43 |
| navanjr | kim0: I'm familiar with key injection, and user-data-file when launching my instance... but dont i want to run this image from my local KVM to get my changes made before i bundle? | 19:52 |
| kim0 | navanjr: pass the kernel option .... ubuntu-pass=foo123 | 19:53 |
| kim0 | will make your password .. foo123 | 19:53 |

| patrickw | Anyone running centos 5.5 VMs on Ubuntu (10.04) kernels? I'm having an issue where it seems that my VMs can't load kernel modules when they first boot, but if I subsequently reboot them they work fine... | 20:52 |
| patrickw | Actually, is seems as though they can't load kernel modules only on the initial boot process... so I have services that fail, but if I either reboot -or- log in and start them manually they work fine. | 20:53 |
