[07:24] <koolhead11> hi all
[07:24]  * koolhead11 pokes kim0 
[08:35] <ttx> kim0: saw http://cssoss.wordpress.com/2011/04/20/openstack-beginners-guide-for-ubuntu-11-04-natt-narhwal/ ?
[08:52] <kim0> ttx: hey .. yeah sure .. I worked with css guys to get that written
[08:52] <kim0> we're trying to get it converted to sphinx now, such that it can be integrated into wiki.u.c
[08:53] <ttx> oh, ok , that's the opensdtack book you were talking abot
[08:53] <kim0> yeah
[08:53] <ttx> I missed that session unfortunately :)
[08:53] <kim0> hehe :)
[08:53] <ttx> sounds nicely-centered around the ubuntu "use case" for openstack.
[08:54] <kim0> yes indeed .. and should grow with any Ubuntu specific details
[08:54] <flaccid> i guess its now going to be openstack vs. cloudstack
[08:54] <flaccid> i feel bad for euca but hey they failed..
[09:06] <koolhead11> kim0, :P
[09:06] <kim0> koolhead11: hey man
[09:06] <koolhead11> kim0, feels good!! :D
[09:06] <kim0> koolhead11: haha what's up
[09:07] <koolhead11> kim0, notthing much trying to scale up my learning curve!! :D
[09:07] <kim0> koolhead11: did you do anything interesting lately
[09:08] <koolhead11> not on the euca part :(
[09:08] <kim0> koolhead11: yeah np .. on which part
[09:09] <koolhead11> few other things in plate :)
[09:09] <koolhead11> hey TeTeT
[09:09] <kim0> cool :)
[09:10] <TeTeT> hi koolhead11
[09:10] <kim0> koolhead11: let me know when you plan on attacking to euca + Ensemble part :)
[09:10] <koolhead11> next week i have to
[09:11] <kim0> koolhead11: I like, have to :) hehe
[09:12] <koolhead11> :P
[19:01] <kim0> - Ensemble community meeting begining -
[19:01] <kim0> Morning afternoon and evening everyone o/
[19:01] <kim0> Let's quickly go through happening in the Ensemble scene this week
[19:01] <kim0> who can volunteer to kick us started
[19:02] <niemeyer> Hello everyone!
[19:03] <niemeyer> kim0: So, let us.. what's hot in the Ensemble scene?
[19:03] <niemeyer> s/let us/tell us
[19:03] <kim0> niemeyer: I hear a mongo formula is in the works ?
[19:03] <kim0> who can tell us more about that please
[19:04] <niemeyer> kim0: It is indeed, hazmat has been pushing forward a nice Ensemble formula to present at MongoDC
[19:04] <niemeyer> If you are in the area, we highly recommend checking it out.. both due to Ensemble and due to Mongo
[19:04] <kim0> niemeyer: awesome .. is that public somewhere
[19:04] <niemeyer> kim0: hazmat is still working on it
[19:04] <niemeyer> hazmat?
[19:04] <kim0> hazmat: I'd love to check it out
[19:05] <niemeyer> hazmat is probably still sleeping by now.. let's move on
[19:05] <kim0> if hazmat is not here .. we can switch to the very interesting hadoop work negronjl is doing ... can you please tell us more about that
[19:06]  * kim0 hears a drum roll
[19:06] <niemeyer> Yeah, we have some very interesting work taking place around the Orchestra project
[19:06] <negronjl> hi all.
[19:06]  * kim0 waves at negronjl 
[19:06] <niemeyer> Orchestra is an on going initiative to have something resembling a IaaS for physical hardware
[19:07] <niemeyer> Oh, I'll hand the mic to negronjl now :)
[19:07] <negronjl> I am currently working with the Orchestra project and we have some interesting puppet recipes that I believe would benefit ensemble.
[19:07] <kim0> negronjl: can you describe what those receipes do today
[19:07] <kim0> and plans for them
[19:07] <negronjl> I am currently working on Hadoop, with the intent on also porting mpi, distcc, etc.
[19:08] <negronjl> It would be very interesting to have a full hadoop ensemble formula that will allow the devops/sysadmin people to quickly and efficiently deploy a cluster in minutes as opposed to hours/days/weeks
[19:08] <kim0> negronjl: so I think hadoop is multiple moving parts right
[19:08] <niemeyer> Sweet
[19:08] <kim0> hdfs
[19:08] <kim0> pig
[19:08] <kim0> ..etc
[19:08] <kim0> are you only interested in one of those
[19:09] <niemeyer> negronjl: Absolutely.. the service-orientation aspect of Ensemble should make it quite comfortable to assemble the different bits in custom ways
[19:09] <niemeyer> negronjl: Looking forward to deploy my first Hadoop cluster with Ensemble!
[19:09] <negronjl> it is and I intend to provide a simple formula for the main parts ( namenode, jobtracker, datanode and tasktracker) as well as convenience formulas for master and slave that will encapsulate all of the work for you
[19:10] <kim0> negronjl: wow that sounds hyper cool!
[19:10] <negronjl> in the horizon we also have gearman and tomcat as well.
[19:10] <kim0> Awesome .. thanks for sharing
[19:10] <negronjl> it would benefit the entire community if, in the future, we have orchestra and ensemble working together with the same recipes/formulas/modules
[19:10] <kim0> negronjl: are those formulas public yet
[19:11] <niemeyer> negronjl: =1
[19:11] <niemeyer> negronjl: +1
[19:11] <negronjl> the orchestra ones are in lp:orchestra-puppet-recipes.  I am currently working on porting those to ensemble but, they are not public yet.
[19:11] <negronjl> soon though :)
[19:11] <kim0> great!
[19:11] <niemeyer> kim0: That's a real drum roll.. ;-)
[19:12] <kim0> negronjl: I would actually be extremely interested in "your experiences" porting a complex puppet module over to ensemble
[19:12] <kim0> I hope once you're done you'd consider sharing your experiences
[19:12] <kim0> awesome stuff
[19:12] <kim0> So .. other than that ..
[19:13] <negronjl> still working on the hadoop one as it is my first but, so far It seems to be a straightforward concept.  It also helps to have niemeyer and gang around to answer my questions :D
[19:13]  * niemeyer waves
[19:13] <kim0> hehe :) yeah a lovely bunch
[19:13] <kim0> cool ..
[19:14] <kim0> niemeyer should be merging some docs soonish about contributing to ensemble if you're new .. you can check out the branch at https://code.launchpad.net/~kim0/ensemble/contribute-formula
[19:14] <kim0> Also .. I'd love to get some feedback on my way of descrining Ensemble
[19:14] <kim0> you can read the message at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ensemble/2011-May/000093.html
[19:14] <kim0> and if you're reading this, and you're not on the mailing list yet .. get on there :)
[19:15] <kim0> niemeyer: I have a question .. would it make sense to write an ensemble formula for Amazon RDS
[19:15] <niemeyer> kim0: That message was awesome, btw
[19:15] <kim0> cool!
[19:15] <niemeyer> kim0: Will read it a few more times and see if I can help you anyhow
[19:17] <kim0> ok, that's mostly all .. if anyone has any comments .. shoot
[19:17] <niemeyer> Yes, any questions on Ensemble, Orchestra, or anything else around it?
[19:18] <niemeyer> Ah, btw.. AWS's Elastic Load Balancer now supports root domains, which is pretty exciting.  Go check it out if you haven't.
[19:18] <kim0> Yeah .. I did see your message
[19:18] <kim0> the way it should have been :)
[19:18] <kim0> ELB that is
[19:19] <kim0> ok guess that's all .. thanks everyone
[19:19] <kim0> special thanks for negronjl .. great work there
[19:20] <kim0> - Ensemble community meeting end -
[19:20] <niemeyer> kim0: Thanks!
[19:20] <niemeyer> Cheers all!
[19:20] <kim0> cheers
[19:20] <niemeyer> We'll be around in #ubuntu-ensemble
[19:22] <hazmat> the mongodb formula is still pretty basic it handles setting up a replica set atm
[19:23] <hazmat> with the new service config work, it can be extended to sharding
[19:23] <kim0> hazmat: thanks for mentioning that
[19:23] <kim0> hazmat: let me know when it's made public :)
[19:23] <kim0> thanks
[19:27] <negronjl> hazmat:  https://launchpad.net/orchestra-puppet-recipes
[19:27] <negronjl> hazmat:  I have a mongo puppet module there that may be of use
[19:27] <negronjl> It's puppet, I know but, the concepts are pretty interchangable
[19:28] <hazmat> negronjl, cool, thanks
[21:16] <sorrell> Hi all, I was wondering, I have a Walrus server and I can't seem to find/mount my RAID controller and I was wondering if anyone knew if it was supported and if so how can I mount it.  The controller is a Dell Perc 5i.  Thanks in advance for any information you can give.
