tormenti guess ill try installing with a btrfs root and taking a snapshot and rolling back00:24
tormentwow this is not like zfs :)01:36
torment'btrfs subvolume get-dafault' lol01:37
shanghi all, I re-install maas on 12.04, ran all the updates, but now my enlist entry is not there anymore.03:11
shangIf I put it back manually, it tells me that it cannot retrieve the preconfiguration file03:11
roaksoaxtorment: there is a fix on the queue waiting to be released04:59
tormenti re-installed today, and maas-dhcp failed05:01
tormentcouldnt boot nodes05:01
roaksoaxprecise, queantal?05:03
tormentmaas server is quantal05:03
tormenti figued out btrfs in a vm tonight, so ill try to install a base 12.10 tomorrow snap it and install maas let it burn and snap back05:04
roaksoaxtorment: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/maas/+bug/106792905:05
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1067929 in maas (Ubuntu) "maas-region-celeryd connects to the wrong queue." [Critical,Fix committed]05:05
tormentyes i ran into that today05:05
tormenti did the workaround - i didnt get the error above - but i didnt get a working dhcp05:06
roaksoaxyeah there's a couple fixes to DHCP also in the queue05:06
tormenti have 13 nodes on 2 blade servers to play with05:06
tormentusing impi05:06
tormentthe ipmi seems to work well so far05:06
roaksoaxDaviey: up already?05:07
roaksoaxtorment: awesome!05:07
tormentwhos the ipimi guy?05:07
tormentif i give maas the root account it renames them to maas05:07
tormentdoes it make a new acct?05:08
roaksoaxtorment: I am05:08
roaksoaxtorment: and yes it makes a new account05:08
roaksoaxtorment: we have ipmi autodetection/configuration05:08
tormentso if the ipmi has an maas user acct does it recreate it if i give it root in the maas webui?05:09
tormenti've reconfigured these blades quite a few # of times05:09
roaksoaxtorment: so maas creates a temporary account during enlistment, once you accept&commission, it will create the account it will use later on for deployments during the commissioning process05:10
tormentive only ever added them by hand05:11
roaksoaxtorment: so if the machjines have been enlisted, and commissioned, you can change the IPMI account you want to use for each machine, and won't be changed by maas05:11
tormentis it able to delete the old maas user with 'whatever password' and make a new one05:11
tormentthats what im asking05:11
roaksoaxtorment: everytime the machine is enlistment/commiussioned it creates a new password05:12
tormentright, but i've had to reinstall my maas server like 3 times today05:12
roaksoaxtorment: so if you remove the machine from the maas clusgter, then the user will ramin05:12
roaksoaxremain05:12
tormentso if it loses that password...05:12
roaksoaxtorment: maas creates the password again05:12
roaksoaxfor the machines05:12
tormentso it uses root permissions in ipmi to set passwords to a new password for the maas user05:13
roaksoaxtorment: again, during the commissioning is where the maas user for IPMI is created, and granted a pssword. If you remove and reinstall MAAS server, that means that you need to enlist/commission the machine again, that means that a password for IPMI maas user is recreated05:13
roaksoaxtorment: yes, we access the bmc05:14
tormentok05:14
tormentim just trying to get to the juju point05:14
roaksoaxtorment: right, so simply enough, you should be able to 1. install maas. 2. enlist/commission machines 3. configure juju environment. 4. deploy05:15
tormenti've installed ubuntu 12.10 MAAS 3 times yesterday05:15
roaksoaxtorment: if ipmi is detected correctly, it will be configured accordingly, and you should not have to do anything05:15
tormenti've ventured into #btrfs to allow me to snapshot a base server OS05:15
tormentthen apt-get install maas after snap05:16
roaksoaxright, TBH i haven't really test the DHCP stuff05:16
roaksoaxcause i use external DNS/DHCP05:16
tormentright05:16
tormentthere are a lot of changes i have to make05:16
tormentinternal05:16
tormentwhat are you doing to reset?05:18
roaksoaxtorment: how are you confuring dhcp though?05:18
roaksoaxconfiguring*05:18
tormentare you reinstalling the whole OS? or is there a special treat apt-get remove line05:18
tormentmy first install went ok05:18
tormenti did the maas install from DC05:18
tormentCD05:18
tormentit didnt install maas-dhcp05:19
tormenti installed that through aptitude05:19
roaksoaxtorment: sudo apt-get remove --purge maas && sudo apt-get autoremove --purge05:19
roaksoaxtorment: and then sudo apt-get install maas05:19
tormentdpkg-reconfigure maas-region-controller05:19
roaksoaxtorment: so you need to install maas-dhcp, and use https://maas.ubuntu.com/docs/maascli.html#cli-dhcp05:19
tormentyes i did05:19
tormenti had all 13 nodes in ready today05:20
tormentbut juju would not bootstrap -- but i had the '5 minutes to recheck maas images' thing05:20
roaksoaxtorment: right, so that's only matter of fixing the upstart job05:20
tormenttell me more :)05:20
tormentit seems the error in the web page is something in the DB that juju doesnt like05:22
roaksoaxi'm hoping to have that fix released today05:22
roaksoaxtorment: can you show the output?05:22
tormentim not at work now05:22
roaksoaxtorment: ah! so yeah, when you can just pastebinit and show it and I'll be able to tell you more of what might be going wrong05:23
tormentand ill have to reinstall the nasty that i've done to the maas server at this point05:23
tormentok05:23
tormentsudo apt-get remove --purge maas && sudo05:24
torment                  | apt-get autoremove --purge05:24
tormenti've tried pretty much to this today05:25
tormentit doesnt go well for me05:25
tormentdoes it really work for you?05:25
tormentcan i apt-get install maas after a base server install?05:25
roaksoaxtorment: yes you can05:26
tormentthis is why im going to try using btrfs on my root05:26
tormentthis blades have horrible console access05:27
tormentdo you know if ubuntu has vnc install access like fedora05:27
tormenti did the aptitude purge on maas -- and rabbitmq wants to die05:28
tormentit's neat that they want to chang passwd often05:28
tormentbut it screws up uninstallation05:29
roaksoaxhow so?05:30
roaksoaxcan you pastebin?05:30
tormentnot at work, and will be installing fresh again when i get in05:33
tormentbut if i get one, ill letchu know05:33
roaksoaxtorment: i just installed maas, then sudo apt-get remove --purge maas && sudo apt-get autoremove --purge (selected to purge database), and reinstalled maas again, and everything seems just fine05:34
tormentwhen does it change passwords from maas05:36
roaksoaxtorment: for the IPMI? that's during commissioning05:36
tormentwhen i try to remove maas - it removes rabbit mq - it tries to connect and it says wrong passwd05:39
roaksoaxtorment: forget about that, it should not really affect on reinstallation05:39
roaksoaxbut i wonder what could have gone wrong there05:39
roaksoaxtorment: oh, for the juju stuff, did you add your SSH key to maas?05:40
tormentit hangs when i remove05:40
tormentbecause its trying to connect to the DB05:40
tormentto remove the DB05:40
tormenti havent gotten juju working yet05:40
tormentthis is pure maas05:40
tormentthis is pure bs until i get you pastebins or whatever05:42
roaksoaxok05:42
roaksoaxyeah withouthem wont be able to tell for sure05:42
tormenti'll be happy to work with yo tomorrw -- what are your hours05:42

* allenap looks06:55
roaksoaxallenap: this is the log: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1299433/06:57
allenaproaksoax: I think it means that the node group ("master") has not been found. Try bin/maas-cli maas node-groups, and use the uuid field.07:08
allenaproaksoax: Ah, okay. File a bug! :)07:26
roaksoaxallenap: yeah but there seems to nbe aproble07:27
allenapI don't know what nbe aproble means.07:27
roaksoaxallenap: trying to write what I' seeing07:27
roaksoaxallenap: basically, the master seems to be created without any parameters, so I have to update it using the uuid07:28
roaksoaxallenap: i'll further investigate later but that's what I'm seeing07:29
roaksoaxright now07:29
allenaproaksoax: I don't fully understand the problem. Is this a regression?07:30
roaksoaxallenap: maybe so, I was simply trying to follow the guide to setup DHCP and it doesn't seem to work that way. I'll futher investigate later07:31
roaksoaxallenap: and let you know07:31
allenaproaksoax: Cool, okay. Is that the guide that Nick wrote?07:31
roaksoaxallenap: yep07:31
roaksoaxallenap: any thoughts? Oct 23 03:58:49 maas named[933]: error (network unreachable) resolving 'google.com/A/IN': 2001:500:1::803f:235#08:01
allenaproaksoax: No. Does this relate to a problem you're trying to debug, or did you just spot it in the logs? If the latter, it might be okay to ignore it for now.08:15
roaksoaxallenap: the latter, and might be the DNS setup here might not08:16
roaksoaxallenap: but because of this I cannot even enlist servers :(08:16
bigjoolsroaksoax: we at the tables near the cafe if you want to come over08:17
roaksoax bigjools will be there in a bit, trying to debug this08:21
bigjoolsroaksoax: well we might be able to help :)08:23
roaksoaxbigjools: i08:25
roaksoaxbigjools: i think might be an issue with the network here08:25
bigjoolsroaksoax: forgive me for laughing then :)08:27
Davieyroaksoax: hey08:29
Davieyroaksoax: Can you add test cases for the SRU's please?08:29
roaksoaxDaviey: ok08:29
roaksoaxDaviey: please, copy the package to raring08:34
Davieyi did08:35

roaksoaxallenap: ValidationError: {'__all__': [u'Node group interface with this Nodegroup and Interface already exists.']}10:05
roaksoaxbigjools: ^^10:06
bigjoolsroaksoax: what are you doing?10:07
roaksoaxbigjools: simply upgraded10:07
roaksoaxbigjools: to the new upstream you prepared10:08
roaksoaxfor quantal10:08
bigjoolsroaksoax: when is it showing that?10:09
bigjoolsexactly10:10
roaksoaxbigjools: maas is not running10:10
roaksoaxbigjools: at al10:10
roaksoaxbigjools: i just upgraded and stopped working and that error was shown10:10
roaksoaxthe only different that I did was configure DHCP10:10
bigjoolsroaksoax: which log?10:11
roaksoaxbigjools: maas.log10:11
roaksoaxbigjools: so I had maas installed from the archives, configured DHCP, then upgraded from -proposed, and that happened10:11
bigjoolsroaksoax: let me try the upgrade too, hang on10:11
bigjoolsroaksoax: can't recreate here10:24
bigjoolsroaksoax: did you poke anything in the DB etc?10:25
roaksoaxbigjools: nope, I'm trying to recreate, but not that I had DHCP configured10:25
roaksoaxs/not/note10:25
roaksoaxan upgrade from a maas without DHCP configure to the -proposed packages works fine10:27
bigjoolsroaksoax: I think I need to see your session, I cannot see any problems here10:31
