maveasHi guys.01:30
maveasAnyone with experience with MAAS?01:31
maveasI am trying to test MAAS in VirtualBox. The MAAS server is installed but nothing happens when I try to boot my node (PXE)01:31
maveasInstalled maas-dhcp etc.01:32
maveasDebugged with wireshark. The node sends dhcpdiscover but there is no response from the MAAS. Have no idea what the problem is. The MAAS is totally open (no rules in iptables)01:33
sarnoldmaveas: is the networking on your system configured for the virtualbox clients to be able to talk with each other?01:38
sarnolds/clients/guests/01:38
maveasIt might not (don't know) :)01:39
maveasIf each VM is bridged on the same interface (eth0) should it really be a problem?01:39
maveasI am able to set a static IP on each VM and access the internet..01:40
sarnoldmaveas: hrm, there's the chance that the packets are leaving your local machine's nic...01:41
maveaslocal as in ?01:42
sarnoldmaveas: try setting up the MAAS master on another physical machine on the physical network? :)01:42
maveasguest or host?01:42
sarnoldsorry, host.01:42
sarnoldoof. :)01:42
maveasAh01:42
sarnoldOr it might be easier to fiddle with the networking to unbridge them01:42
maveasSo even if I tried to setup maas on my host and then boot a guest it would not work?01:43
sarnold(and no, I don't know the lingo well enough to use the actual technical term then... :)01:43
maveasThat's ok :)01:43
sarnoldmaveas: it may not, if the 'bridged ethernet' mode means packets leave your host nic without being subjected to routing 'internal' on the host.01:43
maveasI'll try with my desktop as a node01:43
sarnoldmaveas: woo. nice half-way testing point. :)01:43
maveasThank you for your time sarnold. Appreciated :)01:44
sarnoldplease do repotr back, I've been meaning to fiddle with maas in kvm for ages now...01:44
maveasAlways online @ irc?01:44
sarnoldmaveas: yes01:44
maveasOk. I'll try again tomorrow (2:45am here) and report back with my discoveries :)01:45
maveasCaio01:45
pndemcis there something like htop where I can view live dl/ul stats?02:35

soren_hallyn: Not that it matters to the problem at hand, but I'd avoid versioning the dependency from qemu-kvm to qemu-system.08:59
soren_hallyn: Also, qemu-kvm used to provide both system and user qemu's, didn't it? If so, I'd make qemu-kvm (the transitional package) depend on both, otherwise people using qemu-user will lose functionality in the upgrade.09:00

eagles0513875hey guys I am setting up a mixed setup environment. client computers are windows based and the server back end is going to be linux based. in terms of user authentication with the network from the front end is RADIUS sufficient for that purpose or is its purpose only for wifi authentication09:45
vezqit can be used but depending on amount of users, also think what database RADIUS will use for users, e.g. LDAP if there are a lot of users10:19
vezqalso security is one aspect, see this: http://lists.freeradius.org/pipermail/freeradius-users/2012-April/059947.html10:23

tizzhi everybody! where is an IP alias (eth0:0) defined if it is not in /etc/network/interfaces? I deleted everything in /etc/network/interfaces but still eth0:0 is up after each reboot, with a static IP assigned. where the heck could this be defined in? thanks a lot!10:41
vezqtizz: check this directory /etc/network/if-up.d10:42
vezqalso can be some initscript10:42
tizzvezq, thanks a lot, saved my a lot of time! there was actually a bash script in /etc/network/if-up.d creating the alias.10:44

jamespagejdstrand, hey - I'm reviewing a MP for a new version of iptables for raring; its the same version as is Debian experimental (1.4.16.3)11:29

samba35how do i get X windows on windows with xming ,what i have to change in putty12:00
greppysamba35: you need to use port forwarding, specifcally x11.  connection, ssh, x11, check enable forwarding.12:03
samba35ok12:03
soren_jamespage: Do you know why it's in experimental rather than in unstable?12:13
soren_jamespage: 1.4.16.3 is in unstable.12:14
jamespagesoren_, you are quite correct  - I misread the output of rmadison12:15
soren_jamespage: Back when I maintained iptables, I don't recall ever having any reservations about pulling in new versions.12:18

jamespagesoren_, my reservation was really around it being in experimental still :-)12:18
scalability-junkhey I'm working on a kickstart file and I have issues with encrypted raid.12:23
scalability-junkI wanted to use --fstype and --encrypted and --passphrase within raid of the kickstart, but it says sees options are not supported.. any hints?12:24
scalability-junkam I right to assume that kickstart files are sort of not supported with ubuntu?12:27
jdstrandjamespage: right, so 1.4.16.3-4 is in unstable. you'll be able to drop a patch or two iirc, so yeah, I think that would be fine12:41
jamespagejdstrand, ack12:41
Davieyjamespage: We should probably look at a rsyslog merge aswell soonly?12:42
jdstrandjamespage: before you upload it, can you at least 'sudo ufw enable' then reboot, then 'sudo ufw status' to make sure it still comes up?12:43
jamespagejdstrand, OK12:43
jamespageDaviey, most probably12:43
jdstrandI know there are a couple upstream bugs for things that iptables has deprecated. it might be noisy, but still work. I'll fix the noisy bits. if it doesn't work, pass it to me and I can fix ufw and upload both at the same time12:44

hallynsoren_: it was before oneiric that qemu-kvm provided qemu-user, though13:29
hallynsoren_: what would be the reason to avoid versioning the qemu-kvm -> qemu-system depend?13:30
soren_hallyn: You should generally only do versioned relationship if the version really does matter.13:31
soren_hallyn: ...and I don't see how it does here?13:31
soren_hallyn: The looser the relationship is, the easier things will be for apt.13:31
hallynsoren_: well an older qemu-system which doesn't have qemu-kvm wouldn't suffice, is all...13:32
hallynbut i can drop it13:32
soren_Oh. I thought qemu-system was a new binary.13:32
hallynno qemu-linaro provides it now13:33
soren_But still:13:33
hallynfor qemu without kvm13:33
soren_Erm... /me thinks some more13:33
hallynsoren_: meanwhile last night i reproduced what i thought was the situation with some dummy pkgs ina container with private mirror...  and all worked fine13:34
hallynso i'm going to go pour over the control file and look for another typo13:34

cariboujamespage: howdy, did you see the not from scott Kitterman about the walinuxagent SRU ?14:20
jamespagecaribou, yes - Daviey sorted things out with the SRU team I believe14:21
cariboujamespage: ah, ok. What was the private bug he was reffering to ? I don't remember seeing one14:22
jamespagecaribou, there is one referenced in the change log14:22
cariboujamespage: I thought it was the public bug I was working on...14:22
rbasaksmoser: busy? I've got a couple of tools that could go into cloud-utils that I'd like you to look at before I integrate it.14:43
smoserrbasak, fire away14:44
cariboujamespage: so looks like they removed the SRU for Quantal for walinuxagnet14:44
rbasakSo the first one is the libvirt cloud-localds wrapper. It takes one of three subcommands, create, destroy and import.14:44
rbasakFirst you import <image_name> <filename>. image_name might be "raring", and filename would be your download of the raring cloud image. That'll stick it into libvirt in /var/lib/libvirt/images/raring14:45
rbasakThen "create <hostname> <base_image>" which will create a cow image /var/lib/libvirt/images/<hostname> and start it. It injects your ssh key, a hostname and avahi-daemon install into the localds14:46
caribou:1214:46
smoserrbasak, ok. i hope that we will have wonderful tools for doing the downloading by the end of this cycle, and also tools that will keep your local image  list up to date.14:47
rbasakAfter that "ssh ubuntu@<hostname>.local" should work14:47
smoserso hopefully we can use that.14:47
rbasakWe can add that. I haven't done it yet for a first iteration14:47
smoserright.14:47
rbasakdestroy gets rid of it completely14:47
rbasakI have no idea what to call this tool!14:47
smoserwhy 'a' a hostname, and 'b' a avahi-daemon ?14:47
smoserrbasak, well, i started something very similar with lxc14:48
rbasakI figure that zeroconf is the easiest way to find machines in a test/dev environment. No messing with IPs then. ssh just works too.14:48
smoserand called it "lxc-cloud"14:48
rbasakSo libvirt-cloud then?14:48
smoserwell, i was thinking the other way.14:49
smoserlocalcloud <hypervisor>14:49
smoserlcloud14:49
smoserlcloud <kvm> import14:49
smoserlcloud lxc import14:49
med_caribou, sounds like the walinuxagent thing is being worked (various ways)14:49
smoser?14:49
rbasakAs a single tool or as a wrapper to call the other tools or don't care?14:50
smoserrbasak, what do yo uthink ?14:51
rbasakcloud-fingerprint has subcommands grep, import and fix. fix just wraps grep and import. grep filters console output for the cloud-init fingerprint printout. import takes that on stdin, calls ssh-keyscan, ssh-keygen, verifies fingerprint etc.14:51
smoseri think single python would be nicer.14:51
cariboumed_: k14:51
rbasakSo I can do "euca-get-console-output i-123|cloud-fingerprint fix 1.2.3.4" and it just works14:52
rbasakI thought it was time to split that out as this is useful for both local and remote clouds14:52
smoserrbasak, right.14:52
smoserhow are you doing networking with libvirt ?14:52
smoseris this on the system libvirt ig uess ? (qemu:///system)14:52
rbasakThe tool currently hardcodes qemu:///system. That could be configurable.14:53
smoserand how do you create and delete images ? it requires sudo ?14:53
rbasakThe domain xml is picked up from a template. I intend that to go in /etc and ~/.something so that the user could override.14:53
smoserhm.14:53
rbasakUsing lxml to manipulate the template, changing disks and hostname only. Networking stays as-is.14:53
smoserk.14:53
smoseri just come to the realiszation that we poitentially have14:54
rbasakUsing libvirt python binding to create and delete images. No sudo needed.14:54
smoserlcloud libvirt-kvm14:54
smoserlcloud kvm14:54
smoserlcloud libvirt-lxc14:54
smoserlcloud lxc14:54
rbasakI'm not sure about non-libvirt14:54
smoser(ie, with or without lxc in the middle).  apparently there are people that do not think libvirt-lxc is "the real lxc"14:54
rbasakWe would then have to manage things about where the persistent information about images is kept, at which point we'll have reinvented libvirt14:54
rbasakfor kvm14:55
smoserrbasak, i agree, but there are many annoyances on libvirt and kvm.14:55
rbasakFor lxc, the lxc package already does this14:55
rbasakSo that's OK14:55
smoserwell, networking is different is the big thing.14:55
rbasakWhat networking can you not do with libvirt?14:56
zuljamespage:  ping http://paste.ubuntu.com/1416957/14:56
smoserrbasak, the biggest issue i have with libvirt is its insistence on root owning my images.14:56
smoserrbasak, just that the networking is different.14:56
smosernot insufficient, just idfferent.14:56
jamespagezul, in a bit - have my head in swift charms from adam_g ATM14:56
rbasakIf you go through the API, then that is no longer an issue, since you can still create/delete etc without root. With a wrapper tool that understands the API, is it really needed for someone who just wants to use images?14:57
zuljamespage: okies its just more cloud-archive tooling14:57
smoserrbasak, how do you delete images through api ?14:57
smoseri guess i didn't realize you coudl do that.14:58
rbasakyou can virsh vol-delete --pool default <image>14:58
rbasakThere are definitely things you can't do via the API14:58
smoserif your'e telling me i dont have to be root, but just have qemu://system access, then that rocks.14:58
rbasakAnd the API is really annoying and tedious to use14:58
rbasakBut with suitable well-designed wrappers that pain should go away14:58
smoserbut what is '<image>' there?14:58
smosera path to an image ?14:58
rbasakI'm not sure what will work. I use just the filename as it appears in /var/lib/libvirt/images14:59
rbasakThe abstraction is that directory is a storage pool14:59
smoserright. but then how did you put the image there.14:59
rbasakvirsh vol-upload14:59
smoseroh good night.14:59
rbasak(yes, it's a pain!)14:59
smoseri didnt realize that was there. wow.15:00
smoseri guess our end game would be that those full images would be synced/populated as root15:00
smoserand your instance images would be qcow deltas backed by those15:00
rbasakI do belong to libvirtd btw15:00
smoserand then you'd hvae to upload "full localds ISOs"15:01
smoserrbasak, well, generally, i really like what you're doing.15:01
smoserand i really want to have nice tools like this for kvm and lxc15:01
smoseras i want to use them for testing cloud-init :)15:01
rbasakI'd like to write juju providers for this too :)15:01
smoserrbasak, 'lc2' (local compute cloud)15:02
smoser?15:02
rbasakI like it. Makes it sound like a product though!15:03
smoserat the moment, we're only repllicating *compute*15:03
smoserin the future, we'll have analogs for object store, block storage, networking15:03
smoser...15:03
smoser:)15:03
smoserand then profit15:03
rbasakthat sounds like quite an interesting stack of tools. I wonder what we could call the entire collection?15:04
* smoser wonders how much VC money we can get based only on the IRC conversation above.15:05
smoserrbasak, one thing that i want to at least attempt to support is non-ubuntu15:06
smoserimages15:06
rbasakSo far nothing is specific to ubuntu, only cloud-init, I think15:06
smoserwith, of course, cirros being the first set of non-ubuntu images.15:06
smoserso what all do you do in the guest ?15:06
smoseroh, and do you take user-data ?15:06
smoserit has to15:06
rbasakOh, I am assuming that avahi-daemon exists and can be installed.15:07
smoserwhat does that get you?15:07
rbasakI'm creating user-data. Right now I don't have the ability to take anything supplied by the user15:07
rbasakavahi-daemon makes zeroconf work. I can ssh <hostname>.local and it finds it15:07
rbasakNo messing with IPs then15:07
rbasakI've come to the conclusion that it's the cleanest way of finding ephemeral machines in local use15:08
smoseri think i'd rather mess with IPs if i can find a way to deal with it.15:08
smoseri really dont want to make assumptions about the guest.15:08
smoserother than possibly that it brings up eth015:09
rbasakIt's a standard, doesn't really depend on anything apart from IP networking, will work with IPv6 well, doesn't depend on the dnsmasq trick which always felt horrible to me15:09
smoserwell, if you're doing libvirt, you can specify15:09
smoserright?15:09
smoseryou can set the ip that it will get on dhcp based on its mac that you also specify15:09
rbasakNot sure of the details. I struggled the last time I tried. libvirt was a bit buggy with the network xml stuff then (oneiric maybe)15:09
rbasakSuddenly we need to have an IP allocation mechanism15:10
rbasakAnd know what it is and how to query it15:10
rbasakWith zeroconf, it doesn't matter what the user's using. He could be bridged to his LAN and using his own dhcp server and I don't need to care - it'll still work15:10
rbasakI'm not saying that we shouldn't support an alternative, just that this is a very easy case that takes no effort to get started15:11
smoserall this in exchange for making grave assumptions on the guest15:11
rbasakAnd we could add options for other mechanisms in the future15:11
smoserand not supporting user-data15:11
smoser:)15:11
rbasakI'm doing three things in user-data currently15:11
rbasakI'm automatically grabbing your ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub and sticking that in15:11
rbasakI'm adding avahi-daemon15:11
rbasakAnd I'm setting your hostname based on what you asked for it to be called15:11
smoserid_rsa.pub can be meta-data not user-data15:12
smosersame with hostname15:12
rbasakOh, OK15:12
smoserso avahi-daemon is the sticking point.15:12
smoserbut libvirt probably makes this work, honestly.15:12
rbasakWell user-data is YAML, so it's easy enough to have options that manipulate user-supplied user-data15:12
smoserrbasak, well, its not guaranteed to be yaml15:12
rbasakOh15:12
smoserand it sucks to merge.15:12
smoserwell, anyway.15:13
smosertahat can be solvve.d15:13
rbasakWell how about making it yaml if you want zeroconf, or if you supply non-yaml then you don't get that or have to do it yourself15:13
smoserrbasak, well, the thing you really need to do is use multi-part input.15:14
smoserone part comes from you, one from the user.15:14
smoserif you're doing that.15:14
=== matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch
smoserthe issue then is that multipart cloud-config does not actually merge well, but you could use boothooks for your portions.15:14
rbasakI'm not familiar with the details of that. How would two yaml parts be merged? What if I want avahi-daemon installed and the user wants hello installed?15:14
rbasakOK15:14
smoserbut then you're makign assuptions on the guest again (ie, you'd have to know to use 'apt-get' rather than 'yum install')15:14
rbasakYes15:15
smoserhm..15:15
rbasakAt some point, assumptions on the guest allow us to make the tool more useful and do more automatically, which for a command line tool like this I think is important.15:15
smoserlets table this for now. i think with libvirt and a network of our own we can make this work.15:15
smoserbut, i'm ok with your solutio nfor now.15:16
rbasakI favour making it simple by default, but possible to turn off some of the automation in return for removing assumptions on the guest, so then it'll still work with non-ubuntu guests15:16

hallynjdstrand: still no comments from upstream on the patches from lp:~serge-hallyn/ubuntu/raring/libvirt/libvirt-hugepages .  Do you think it would help if you commented on those threads instead of doing the bzr merge review?17:26
jdstrandhallyn: I plan on commenting17:27
jdstrandhopefully today, otherwise tuesday (it's at the top of my todo list after some MIR reviews)17:28
jdstrands/tuesday/by tuesday/17:28
hallynjdstrand: on the libvir-list ?17:32
jdstrandyes17:32
hallynjdstrand: awesome, thanks.  have a good weekend17:33
jdstrandthanks, you too17:33
jdstrandhallyn: do you have packages with those patches somewhere?17:34
hallynjdstrand: no, but i can push them to a ppa if it helps17:35
hallyn(i mean yes, but compiled locally on an instance)17:35
jdstrandhallyn: a source package on chinstrap would be fine17:35
hallynk17:35
jdstrandhallyn: I noticed that '[PATCH 1/1] add vnc unix sockets to apparmor policy' does not include a test case in tests/virt-aa-helper-test. could you add one?17:36
hallynjdstrand: http://people.canonical.com/~serge/libvirt_1.0.0-0ubuntu3ppa1.dsc  and http://people.canonical.com/~serge/libvirt_1.0.0-0ubuntu3ppa1.debian.tar.gz17:37
* hallyn goes to look at how those testcases are done17:38
jdstrandhallyn: can you also add one for '[libvirt] add security hook for permitting hugetlbfs access (v2)'? that one would just be doing the equivalent call to virt-aa-helper that ApparmorSetHugepages() is doing17:38
hallynjdstrand: what is that meant to test exactly?17:39
jdstrandhallyn: that virt-aa-helper is doing what you meant for it to do17:39
hallynok17:39
jdstrandit exited with the correct exit code. also, if you pass '-d' to virt-aa-helper-test, then you will get debugging output to visually inspect17:42
jdstrandhallyn: ^17:42
hallynjdstrand: ok that test program looks grok-able, thanks for that :)17:45

phunyguy_workHey folks, I am not on Ubuntu-server, but I need to write a script for some proxy settings, and I need some advice.  I have a script that currently checks to see if my LAN is pingable, and if not, try to connect via VPN, and if I am at home, it will disconnect the VPN.  What I want to accomplish is have it change system-wide proxy settings when I am away from home and connected VPN to proxy my web traffic through18:08
phunyguy_work home, (including aptitude), and when I am home, stop using the proxy.   Any ideas hwo to accomplish the proxy changes dynamically?18:08
phunyguy_work(the reason I ask here is due to command-line stuff)18:09

adam_gjamespage: re swift review, i'd rather spend time doing a proper rewrite of that charm than working on the current bugs. i think the underlying design of how swift-proxy + storage are deployed with the current charms is broken, and we can do better19:05
halvorsI ran chmod 6755 /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver wich conflicts with the setuid. How to revert it?19:18

raubTrivial question: how do I partition a hard drive during the server installation using command line?20:50
sarnoldraub: look for commands cfdisk or gparted first, then fdisk.20:51
raubsarnold: cfdisk, gparted, and fdisk are not in the built-in shell offeredn during install. And I forgot how to add a package at that point20:54
raubshame on me20:54
sarnoldraub: try find / -name '*fdisk*' ... it may be there, just under a different name.20:55

sarnoldraub: aha. Perhaps you can revive that bug... it never got the information hallyn asked for..22:10
xnoxraub: sarnold: I thought this was fixed in lvm2 and SRUed.22:10
raubsarnold: thing is that it only happens during install22:11
* xnox just had a dejavu moment.22:11
raubxnox: had that happen to you before?22:11
raubsarnold: If I run the livecd, I can partition it to my heart's content22:12
xnoxraub: well. I never had the qemu problem myself, but I remember uploading fixes to resolve an approx similar problem you are discussing here.22:12
raubBut if I try to install it it will go boink22:12
raubxnox: sounds like they were not committed?22:12
jamespageadam_g, still around?22:15
adam_gjamespage: yes22:19
jamespageadam_g, with regards to the rewrite of the swift charms; how long do you think that might take?  I'm concerned about the quanlity of whats in the charm store22:20
jamespageseriously considering whether we should unpromulgate it22:21
adam_gjamespage: im working on it now, hope to have it up for review before EOD mon? i'd +1 that idea. i dont know how those canonical-specific changes got in there to begin with22:23
