| daveops | I'm not sure how well cloud-init is supposed to support RHEL-based OSes, but I'm having issues with it not setting the hostname permanently. | 18:04 |
|---|---|---|
| daveops | Related (old) bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=750979 | 18:04 |
| daveops | tl;dr the correct hostname gets set on the first boot, but is unset on subsequent boots because RHEL uses /etc/sysconfig/network instead of /etc/hostname | 18:08 |
| daveops | CentOS 6.4 guest, cloud-init-0.6.3-0.12.bzr532.el6.noarch | 18:08 |
| smoser | daveops, 0.6.3 == old | 18:28 |
| smoser | should be fixed in newer | 18:29 |
| daveops | smoser: thanks... i figured it was pretty antiquated. i'll update my stuff. | 18:32 |
| harlowja | if u get stuck daveops let me know, y! runs 6.3, 6.2, 6.4 internally using cloud-init | 18:41 |
| harlowja | and even 5.8 (yes i know) | 18:41 |
| daveops | harlowja: thanks. i got it working on my version by doing some hackery in my cloud.cfg. i'm just removing /etc/hostname with a bootcmd command. it's not pretty, but we need to pull our packages from EPEL and that's the latest version they have atm. | 19:08 |
| harlowja | ah | 19:09 |
| harlowja | ya, in about 10 years RH will have the newer version | 19:09 |
| harlowja | lol | 19:09 |
| harlowja | +- | 19:09 |
| daveops | haha... right? | 19:09 |
| harlowja | ya, we fight with that stuff daily | 19:09 |
| daveops | harlowja: how are you guys addressing the issue? | 19:09 |
| harlowja | old depenedencies | 19:09 |
| harlowja | we build it :-P | 19:09 |
| harlowja | its not so hard, its hopefully pretty much 'make rpm' | 19:10 |
| harlowja | we have a few patches for cloud-init modules that do some y! stuff that also gets sucked in | 19:10 |
| daveops | oh.. nice. i'll test it out and maybe we'll just end up doing that | 19:10 |
| harlowja | but thats about it | 19:10 |
| harlowja | ya, it shouldn't be to bad | 19:10 |
| daveops | appreciate the advice | 19:11 |
| harlowja | np | 19:11 |
| harlowja | if its not just 'make rpm' let me know daveops and then something has to be fixed | 19:13 |
| harlowja | of course u might want to have a patch for cloud.cfg if u build it yourself | 19:13 |
| harlowja | to remove various things | 19:13 |
| harlowja | *debian/ubuntu things | 19:14 |
| harlowja | those nasty things smoser put in there, ha | 19:14 |
| daveops | for sure... i'll just steal the patches the fedora guys are using | 19:14 |
| smoser | everything should "do the right thing", no? | 19:16 |
| harlowja | i think so | 19:16 |
| harlowja | but just incase, ha | 19:16 |
| harlowja | i typically just reconfigure cloud.cfg to what y! wants, and remove all the other stuff | 19:17 |
| harlowja | but people don't have to do that if they don't want | 19:17 |
| harlowja | its not that many changes really | 19:17 |
| smoser | https://code.launchpad.net/~gholms/cloud-init/rsyslog-programname/+merge/186906 | 19:17 |
| smoser | i'm not sure what i htink about that one | 19:17 |
| smoser | it just seem like possibly something could go wrong ... | 19:17 |
| harlowja | hmmm, whats the issue, i'm not really a syslog expert :-/ | 19:18 |
| smoser | yeah. thats why i dont want to just take it. | 19:18 |
| smoser | i dont understand what si wrong. | 19:18 |
| harlowja | :) | 19:19 |
| harlowja | i'm with u there, maybe we can get an explanation as to whats broke | 19:20 |
| smoser | harlowja, it does work for you, right? | 19:26 |
| harlowja | not using syslog :-P | 19:26 |
| harlowja | ha | 19:26 |
| smoser | bah. | 19:26 |
| harlowja | lol | 19:26 |
| gholms | smoser: Yo | 20:03 |
| smoser | hey. | 20:04 |
| smoser | i commented in that mp. | 20:04 |
| * gholms looks | 20:04 | |
| gholms | Oh, the logging one. | 20:06 |
| smoser | basically "it doesnt seem to be working, but it used to, so we should change somethign ..." | 20:06 |
| * gholms nods | 20:07 | |
| gholms | Yeah, that is a terrible description. | 20:07 |
| smoser | :) | 20:07 |
| gholms | At that point I was terribly fatigued from working on my bug backlog all day. ;) | 20:07 |
| smoser | gholms, well, i'm expecting 0.7.3 like end of this week. | 20:14 |
| gholms | Oh! That's good to know. | 20:15 |
| gholms | I'm going to see if I can get you a better description of what it was doing, but the short version is that cloud-init logs were going to the default log file instead of cloud-init.log, and that patch was how I fixed it. | 20:16 |
| smoser | theres one change i'm expecting from utlemming, and i'd like to hvae the fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1225922 | 20:16 |
| smoser | but its tricky | 20:16 |
| gholms | That one looks fun. | 20:16 |
| smoser | gholms, yeah... i'm just weary of a config file change for something that used to work and should work. | 20:16 |
