[10:22] I want to import that into my browser so i don't get "invalid SSL certificate" warnings [10:25] <_ruben> isn't it self-signed and thus no CA involved? [10:26] _ruben: does that make it impossible to add as trusted? [10:26] I'm not actually sure i entirely understand the SSL certificate signing... is it just signed with another SSL certificate? [10:26] which might in turn be signed by another SSL certificate, which might be one that is trusted? [10:27] and it just follows the chain to find out if the root is trusted? [10:27] <_ruben> roughly, yes [10:27] <_ruben> the types of those ssl certs differ tho [10:28] ok [10:28] so a self-signed cert is actually an unsigned cert? [10:28] <_ruben> it's signed by itself :) [10:28] ok [10:28] so that makes it its own CA? [10:29] <_ruben> sort of :) [10:29] but does that mean there is a certificate somewhere in the process that i could use to say "trust this certificate" ? [10:29] <_ruben> you could create your own personal CA, and use that to sign certs for your ssl services. then you could add that ca to your trusted ca store [10:29] but you can't add the cert itselfd to the trusted CA store [10:30] because it's not a CA [10:30] but it kinda is [10:30] <_ruben> that's why i said "create your own personal CA, ...." ;) [10:30] <_ruben> then you can [10:30] <_ruben> check some openssl howtos, there's plenty of those around [10:30] <_ruben> or use a tool like tinyca2 [10:30] i was hoping to trust ubuntu's snakeoil [10:31] <_ruben> there's really not much point in that [10:31] jumping through a load of hoops kinda defeats the point of how "simple" the snakeoil cert setup is... [10:31] <_ruben> it being simple also makes it limited :) [10:33] seems like it's possible to add it to the OS's certificate store though...

[11:52] Daviey: waiting on your merge review for ipxe btw [11:52] Daviey: can you sync off experimental? I don't mind how we do it.

It means that all strings would be unicode, and you get a str() with b"..." syntax. [12:13] * Daviey ^5's allenap [12:14] * allenap ^5's Daviey, but wonders what prompted it :) [12:18] allenap: I'm all for it. Maybe even absolute imports, and what the hey, I'd go for the print function as well. [12:18] * jtv had been quietly wishing for this but dared not mention it [12:18] jtv: In 2.7 we get absolute imports by default I think. [12:18] I shall get on it. [12:19] I did a bunch of cross-version development (2.6/2.7/3.2) over the holidays. Barry's tips helped immensely. [12:19] In fact I keep an email of his in my mailbox about stuff I ought to blog about. [12:20] I too have become an avid Barry porting missive reader. [12:20] In a nutshell: better give up on getting your newline conversions right before you start on python 3. :) [12:20] allenap: sounds good [12:31] New bug: #918646 in mysql-5.1 (universe) "package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.54-1ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/918646 [12:33] rvba: overriding the runserver command works a treat. Thanks. [12:33] jtv: Newline conversions? [12:34] soren: yes… my impression is that that particular problem wasn't sufficiently re-thought in the new I/O model. And so you can ask for newline conversion when reading a compressed file, but you can't specify the encoding! [12:35] And so if you get a UTF-16 character, say, where one of the bytes happens to be equal to 13... [12:35] jtv: Oh. [12:35] * soren hasn't dived into Py3k yet [12:36] I'd been writing a module for python 2.6/2.7/3.x that would be best described as lib_open_my_god_damn_file.py [12:36] Transparent decompression is one of the things it did, if needed. [12:36] So you get a conceptual layering of: [12:36] unicode [12:36] bytes [12:37] compressed file [12:37] blocks etc. [12:37] Where does newline conversion happen? [12:37] Currently, at the "compressed file" layer. [12:37] Which isn't aware that there might be b'\n' bytes in the data stream that aren't u'\n' characters. [12:38] A-hah! I hear you cry: just use something or other in codecs that handles newlines. [12:38] But no, in python 3, codecs must always convert between bytes and unicode. [12:38] Which is cleaner, but less malleable when it comes to this kind of thing. [12:39] Newline conversion has to happen at (or above) the unicode layer. [12:39] So either it must be part of the codec, or it needs a separate layer that AFAICS does not exist yet. [12:39] this sounds rather painful [12:40] possibly even like a design mistake [12:40] In the case of compression, it can be handled by giving the gzip and bzip2 libraries the same open() API as the built-in one. [12:40] I like to think of it as design skew: the standard library isn't all on the same page yet [12:41] —so yes, a possible design mistake but with a slightly more optimistic view. :) [12:41] py3k - is that like http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2550 ? [12:41] Don't depress me. I've got test code in that module that will start failing in a few centuries. [12:44] Luckily for me, my program doesn't actually mind if it gets a few too many newlines, loses carriage returns, or mistakes paragraph boundaries for line breaks. As a friend pointed out, "about right" is the new black. [12:45] (By the way, b'\r\n' is a valid unicode character... in big-endian utf-16) [12:58] allenap: I'm new to this side of buildout… any idea how I can pull in python-oops and python-oops-wsgi? [12:58] Write a recipe? [13:00] I think I'll go look for a better headset first. === jtv is now known as jtv-afk === udienz_ is now known as udienz [13:55] jamespage, Daviey . so, looking at https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/view/Precise%20ISO%20Testing%20Dashboard/view/Daily/job/precise-server-ec2-daily/ARCH=i386,REGION=eu-west-1,STORAGE=instance-store,label=ubuntu-server-ec2-testing/45/artifact/None/i386/m1.small/instance-store/i-929cf6db/uec2-20120119-0340-74e55fac26b44d-terminated.console.txt [13:55] the mount issue came after a reboot that was issued by jenkins. [13:55] so it would seem to me that that reboot resulted in /mnt not being unmounted cleanly [13:56] maybe we could force this error just by repeatedly issuing reboot-instances === bladernr_afk is now known as bladernr_ [14:13] kirkland: shift-f2 isn't working for me in bybou-tmux anymore [14:22] roaksoax: your fence_cdu script: should the names of the machines be case-sensitive (-s)? === jtv-afk is now known as jtv [14:41] smoser: snapshot/restore working pretty good. http://paste.ubuntu.com/809683/ reusing the same snippets earlier seems to work fine for bootstrapping juju agents [14:42] Daviey: ^ [14:43] adam_g: \o/ [14:44] adam_g / jamespage: what is blocking making the jenkins results public? [14:44] ie, what is left to do? [14:44] Daviey: a firewall? [14:44] adam_g: right, but what needs to be done before we can progress to make it public? [14:44] Daviey, adam_g: are we happy with the automated process in the lab? [14:44] Daviey: nothing i suppose, if theres nothing wrong with making a WIP public [14:45] if so then I am OK to setup the results publishing [14:45] ^^ WIP ^^ [14:45] im working on this snapshot stuff to reduce the # of provisioning failures [14:45] jamespage: Error: "^" is not a valid command. [14:45] nice [14:45] sorry uvirtbot [14:45] jamespage: I think exposing WIP has little negative impact? [14:45] well maybe not [14:45] its up to you [14:45] ive still been focusing on getting the bootstrapping an deployment working as reliably as possible [14:46] its pretty reliable as-is, but we're still running into periodic archive errors during initial installation, which require a 45 min timeout to pop before the test is failed [14:46] allenap, bigjools, rvba: do we have any opinions on where to put MaaS oopses? I'm thinking maybe /var/log/maas in production, ./logs in development. [14:46] yeah, if it's constaly failing there is no beneift to allowing me to see it :) [14:47] adam_g, great. and that is going into early_command ? [14:47] jtv: sounds good. [14:47] Daviey: if you look at it now, the precise-openstack-essex-deploy. the minority are failures, but those are all archive errors during install. after install, those errors can be worked-around [14:47] smoser: the partman early_command, yeah. [14:48] jtv, rvba: Up for a review? https://code.launchpad.net/~allenap/maas/coding-standards/+merge/89255. [14:48] allenap: I can take it [14:48] adam_g: you know, that could be a udeb :) [14:48] jtv: Thanks. [14:49] Daviey: the kernel module? yeah.. but what udeb provides it? or, how to build one myself for every new kernel thats released? [14:50] allenap: I guess this means we get sensible fixed-width indenting, not the squeeze-in-arguments-all-the-way-on-the-right indenting. Nice. [14:51] adam_g: sorry, this lvm work is in di or cloud-init? [14:51] Daviey: d-i [14:51] allenap: you're lying about the database cluster though. A plain "make" no longer sets up the database, as per your recommendation. But "make syncdb," "make run," and "./bin/test" do. [14:51] jtv: I hadn't thought about that, but \o/ [14:52] jtv: Ah, okay, that was a copy-n-paste. I'll update that. [14:52] Also, we now have ./bin/django deletedb [14:52] adam_g: yeah, i was thinking - it could be wrapped into a udeb, passing preseed for the differing values.. rathe rthan hacking it into a late_command [14:52] allenap: I think it was a copy-and-paste from an older version of the readme..? [14:52] Ah no [14:53] Daviey: i need to get a udeb together for the kernel module for sure. as for the scripting, i quite like having it embedded in the snippet, because we can make use of logic around profile name, mgmt classes, etc in cobbler to determine whether or not to restore or install. [14:55] allenap: oh, I've duplicated what you did with the README in my api doc, sphinx branch ;) [14:56] allenap: mp done [14:56] adam_g: ok.. i just wondered if it made a nice thing that culd be reused in the archive..

[15:30] you need to *access* it from php somehow [15:30] either by making your own socket calls, installing a php memcache lib, or whatever [15:33] xorred, you need to separately install either one of the memcache extensions for php. [15:34] xorred, php5-memcache and/or php5-memcached, latter is "better" from programmer point of view [15:35] jamespage: re zookeeper+start-stop-daemon.. no, I never pushed it anywhere, but I think I can now..

There's a lot of code changing in there. [15:51] the log shows segmentation faults all over [15:51] allenap: no rereq, but most of it is boiler plate code added by the initialisation of sphinx. [15:52] xorred, do you have any non-standard stuff installed or configured in there, and what exactly is segfaulting? [15:52] allenap: docs/Makefile and docs/ [15:52] …docs/conf.py [15:52] jtv: you want me to look at that MP as well as allenap's review? [15:52] onre: I found the conflictiing module [15:52] now... just if I were able to un-install xcache :D [15:53] xorred, alternatively you can just disable it from being loaded. [15:53] xorred, and be done with it. [15:55] bigjools: I'd just like to know what else you want done on top of this. [15:55] jtv: ok, looking at it now [15:55] thx [15:59] bjf: howdy!! I just uploaded a patch for what seems to be your bug. So should be built soon let me know how it goes [16:01] roaksoax: cool, look forward to giving it a spin [16:02] roaksoax: have you seen https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Reference/Orchestra ? === JanC_ is now known as JanC [16:02] Daviey: ^ [16:04] kirkland: cool [16:04] kirkland: yeah, they were digging it last week. [16:08] Daviey: good stuff, man [16:09] rvba: There's quite a lot of new code, like the whole of NodesHandler. [16:09] allenap: that's right :) [16:10] rvba: Okay... [16:10] allenap: but most of it is simply refactoring [16:10] allenap: and documentation [16:12] rvba: Okay, if you promise :) It looks like lots of new untested code, but then I can imagine that it's something to do with what Piston expects. [16:12] soren: i'm going to add kvm nesting as an option through /etc/default/kvm. I'm leaning toward making it enabledy by default. Test shows no impact on guest perf. Do you object to enabling by default? [16:12] jamespage: smoser: zul: ^ [16:13] i do not object. [16:13] allenap: really, no new code was added! Only the create method was splitted into two. [16:14] allenap: well, resource_uri is new, but that's it. [16:14] smb, how did you do that ascii art ? [16:14] rvba: 770 lines diff? [16:14] smoser, the keyboard? ;) [16:15] once again, smb shows he's a better man than i. [16:15] smoser: as for your question about 2nd level nesting perf, it's about what you'd expect. compiling a tiny program jumps from .8 seconds to 2.8 seconds without kvm in second level [16:15] smoser, MAybe just a bit more anal... :-P [16:15] allenap: 769 yes, but again, most of it is docs/Makefile and docs/conf.py. [16:16] hallyn, i dont follow. [16:16] smoser, I thought it takes me probably longer to find out how that nicer moin things work again [16:16] smb, i figured you used some modeling tool that could output ascii art [16:17] smoser, Yeah, but no. Just alot of patience [16:18] smoser: run kvm on the host. inside that kvm guest, run kvm, and compile a small program (suckless' ii). If you run the kvm guest without '-cpu host' (to provide nested kvm), it takes 2.8 seconds. With '-cpu host', it takes .8 seconds [16:19] wow. [16:19] thats not what i would have expected at all. [16:19] much better improvement than i would have thought. [16:20] jamespage: https://code.launchpad.net/~clint-fewbar/ubuntu/precise/zookeeper/drop-daemon-dep/+merge/89284 [16:20] well, aiui, the cpu should be host speed, you just have (a) slower disk, and (b) issues with shadow paging in memory. [16:20] anyway, i'll go enable it. thanks. [16:22] hallyn: why doesn't kvm default to nesting if its available? [16:26] SpamapS: they don't say. relevant docs are http://www.usenix.org/events/osdi10/tech/full_papers/Ben-Yehuda.pdf and Documentation/virtual/kvm/nested-vmx.txt in the kernel source. [16:26] presumably bc i'ts new [16:32] Yeah that would be nice if it just happened [16:33] of course otoh i don't want mysterious new failures due to a bug in the nesting support... [16:33] paper says 6-8% perf impact on second level guest vs. first level. not bad. [16:34] hallyn: in the past I'd have agreed, but IMO, proper test coverage (both across software and hardware types) should alleviate the need for such caution. [16:35] But yeah, maybe a release or two with it not on by default is prudent. :-) === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [16:38] SpamapS: yes, i'm figuring if there are bugs, we have 2 months to run into them [16:39] so right now i'm going to enable it. it worked great for me yesterday and today under pretty heavy use. [16:43] roaksoax: looks like the same error - http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/809812/ [16:47] bjf: uhm ok... so http://192.168.1.6/cblr/ks_mirror/precise-x86_64/ is empty then? [16:47] roaksoax: The requested URL /cblr/ks_mirror/precise-x86_64/ was not found on this server. [16:48] bjf: can you pastebin /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror and /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/precise-x86_64 [16:51] roaksoax: ok, the directory name is different as seen here: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/809816/ [16:51] SpamapS: hey upstart guru, do you have any objections to the way I'm doing this? http://people.canonical.com/~serge/debdiff [16:52] bjf: ah that's the error, did orchestra imported those ISO's directly? [16:52] adam_g: are we updating the ISO's by a cronjob? [16:52] roaksoax: yes, i've done nothing manually/myself other than install orchestra [16:53] s/by a/with a/ [16:54] bjf: interesting issue, I'll look into that [16:54] roaksoax: any way i can work around it (symlink i suppose) [16:54] bjf: do this then: sudo cobbler profile edit --name precise-x86_64 --ks-meta tree=http://@@http_server@@/cblr/repo_mirror/precise-x86_64-x86_64 [16:55] roaksoax: note, a netboot of bare metal worked [16:57] bjf: yeah, because koan uses the "tree" variable from ks_meta in order to determine whre the installation tree is located [16:57] roaksoax: --ks-meta is a bad option [16:57] roaksoax: where? [16:58] roaksoax: ah, --ksmeta (no hyphen) [16:58] bjf: --ksmeta sorry [16:58] yeah [16:58] adam_g: in the import scripts we use for orchestra/cobbler? are they been run by a cronjob to update the ISO's? [16:59] roaksoax: ya. as of precise, if a distro exists, orchestra-import-isos calls: cobbler-ubuntu-import -c $r-$a && cobbler-ubuntu-import -u $r-$a to update it if necessary [17:00] roaksoax: running koan after that produce: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/809826/ [17:10] adam_g: ok I think there might be something wrong with that as it creates directories with distro-arch-arch [17:11] bjf: libvir: error : Cannot get interface MTU on 'virbr0': No such device [17:11] bjf: specify the virt interface you are using with virt-bridge i think [17:16] roaksoax: so i need to define a bridge device ? [17:17] bjf: it defaults to virbr0 but if you don't have it, then you would have to specify it. 'sudo koan --server localhost --virt --profile precise-x86_64 --virt-bridge=br0' [17:17] for exmaple [17:18] bjf: or you can define it in the cobbler profile [17:18] roaksoax: so the error indicates that i don't have it, should it have been created during install? [17:19] sudo cobbler profile edit --name precise-x86_64 --virt-bridge br0 --> If you do this, you don't need to specify it wen using koan [17:19] bjf: I think kvm should have created it automatically on install [17:20] hallyn: ^^ [17:20] should kvm create a virbr0 on install? [17:20] no [17:20] that's libvirt [17:21] err yeah, should libvirt create it ayutomatically then after install? [17:21] yes [17:21] unless you have in the past removed it ( as some people have ) [17:22] if it's not, pls do file a bug, as that's wrong [17:22] hallyn, ack [17:22] thx [17:22] hallyn: thanks ;) [17:25] roaksoax: bug 918807 [17:25] Launchpad bug 918807 in libvirt "[precise] virbr0 not created during fresh install" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/918807 [17:29] hallyn: whoa, nested kvm!

I've tried creating a mirrored lv but had no luck either at install time (dm_mirror module doesn't exist) or after (can't add mirrors to an existing lv apparently) [21:29] Anyone have any thoughts? [21:29] My understanding is that md devices don't support trim which is why I'm trying it this way [21:30] elfurbe raid? software or hardware [21:30] software, I can't make the pseudo-raid on this motherboard work for anything [21:30] oh no mobo implementations are very incomplete most of the time [21:31] It's a Supermicro, has both Intel and Adaptec codebases, neither of them make volumes that are visible to the installer [21:31] So whatevs, I put the ssds in AHCI mode and figured I'd work something out [21:31] But so far I can't make it work [21:32] elfurbe what kernel are you on? [21:32] This is during the installer for 11.10 [21:33] I need the rootfs to be on the mirror [21:33] can you drop into a shell and do uname -a ? [21:34] Yeah, but I'll have to relay output the old fashioned way [21:34] morse code?

That's one you wanted to exit out when you're not root? [22:37] well a simple "permission denied" is bette rthan that. [22:37] or "you cant do that, jim" [22:41] right - cause 'not root' is not sufficient check (if you're using lxc-setcap). But yes, it should be checking early. [22:47] If I have two servers connected to the same chassis of SAS disks in a RAID10 (on the chassis), could I install IET (iSCSI target software) on both, export the disk array, setup iSCSI multi-pathing on my client and have an HA storage environment? I was thinking active/passive. [22:51] undriedsea, high availability is not the result of a combination of techniques [22:52] it's the result of the combination of understanding and process [22:54] taken at face value, what you describe provides about the same level of availability in principle as a raid1 , but with a much higher complexity [22:55] whether that added complexity actually results in improved service is a matter of how well you design the system, and how well the process you put in place works to prevent mistakes during both normal and degraded operation [22:56] New bug: #918956 in quagga (main) "package quagga 0.99.17-4ubuntu1.1 failed to install/upgrade: sub-processo script post-installation instalado retornou estado de saída de erro 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/918956 [22:56] roaksoax: any chance I could get you to upload http://people.canonical.com/~serge/netcf-precise-runtests.debdiff ?

In real production the failure rate of everything else has been very low. I guess I am wondering if the setup described would work. [23:15] undriedsea: drbd+pacemaker+ietd active/passive is a pretty straightforward and common HA clustering setup. [23:16] adam_g, I have been seeing that as well, in this case since the disks are connected to both iSCSI servers, I was hoping to avoid using DRBD.
