[00:00] <Atttwww> I have an ubuntu server 14.04 VM image I setup with 512ram and I noticed it is running zero swap. Is that something I did, or is that normal now? My thought is to at least match the ram size with swap just in case.
[00:02] <ikonia> what do you mean running zero swap
[00:02] <ikonia> as in swap assigned but not in use
[00:02] <ikonia> or no swap assigned
[00:03] <Atttwww> running 'top', it shows zero assigned.
[00:03] <ikonia> swapon -s
[00:03] <ikonia> top does not show assigned swap
[00:03] <ikonia> please show me the output
[00:04] <ancaster> Hi. I'm running 12.04. Is there a nice way to have autofs show wildcard nfs subdirectories
[00:04] <ikonia> show or mount
[00:04] <ancaster> show
[00:05] <ikonia> what do you mean by "show", can you give an example
[00:05] <ancaster> before a user explictly tries to access it
[00:05] <ancaster> e.g. show /home/ancaster
[00:05] <ikonia> there is no such command
[00:05] <ancaster> and then mount /home/ancaster when I cd /home/ancaster
[00:05] <ancaster> no, eh?
[00:06] <ancaster> well, worth an ask. thanks ikonia.
[00:07] <Atttwww> ikonia I have two VMs running, my old 12.04 LTS, and my new test 14.04 that I had my question about. On the 14.04 "swapon -s" is blank accross the line, the 12.04 shows a "/dev/mapper/cryptswap1" file for comparison sake. I'm wondering if I didn't set it up right on install.
[00:07] <ikonia> Atttwww: swapon -s shows a blank line, nothing at all
[00:07] <Atttwww> just headers, "Filename Type Size Used Priority"
[00:08] <ikonia> Atttwww: ok, so that sounds like you have no swap device assigned
[00:08] <ikonia> Atttwww: you can confirm this in your /etc/fstab
[00:08] <Atttwww> thats what I'm saying
[00:09] <PryMar56> ikonia, inside the VM run blkid
[00:09] <ikonia> PryMar56: why ?
[00:09] <PryMar56> ikonia, if there is a swap device it will ID itself
[00:09] <ikonia> PryMar56: that doesn't change anything
[00:09] <ikonia> there is currently no swap device assigned
[02:32] <Macer> is there a webmin repo for ubuntu anywhere?
[02:32] <Macer> or does it have to be installed via their .deb?
[02:37] <Macer> oh. seems like there is a repo
[02:37] <Macer> wonder if it has a trusty dir
[02:38] <Macer> guess not
[02:38] <Macer> only a debian sarge
[03:24] <pmatulis> Macer: webmin isn't great on ubuntu
[03:24] <pmatulis> !webmin
[03:47] <Macer> pmatulis: yeah seems so
[03:47] <Macer> i was playing around with it.. doesn't seem stable
[03:47] <Macer> decided to uninstall it
[03:47] <Macer> i was hoping to find more of a monitoring tool
[03:48] <Macer> that will email me if say.. the power goes down or zfs detects an error
[03:48] <Macer> is there something good for that?
[09:27] <makara> hi. How do i set the DNS servers to use with my ubuntu server?
[09:29] <mardraum> makara: man resolvconf
[09:30] <mardraum> for a machine with a static address, the "ifup" section
[09:32] <makara> since I can't edit /etc/resolv.conf directly
[09:33] <jpds> makara: Put it into /etc/network/interfaces
[09:39] <jpds> makara: With: "dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 ..."
[09:51] <makara> jpds, thanks. stupid mistake dns-servers not dns-nameservers
[11:00] <saban> hi. is there a way to see what ip address is ussing what directory in smbstatus?
[11:15] <rbasak> saban: try #samba maybe?
[11:15] <saban> ok
[13:41] <stetho> Hi. I have a network problem that's making my head hurt. Therefore it's something obvious :-) . I have a machine 10.24.21.65. I can SSH to it and from it, I can telnet from it to 10.24.21.253 which is a switch and I can ping 10.24.16.0/21 (my network) expect one address. That address is 10.24.21.254 - my router. So this server has no internet access. The router is "obviously" working because I'm on Freenode using IRC. And the machine I'm using can
[13:41] <stetho>  ping 10.24.21.254. Somewhere on this server though there's a setting that's stopping it getting to the router. I've checked iptables -L, ip route, route -n - they're all as they should be.
[13:50] <catphish> has anyone run a dell bios update on ubuntu? the installers they provide seem to want rpm, wasn't sure how hacky i want to be with a solution :)
[14:36] <catphish> found an old repo for it that i think will work :)
[14:44] <hallyn_> ahs3: did you find any time this weekend to look at netcf?
[15:47] <zul> hallyn_:  starting on 1.2.5
[15:48] <hallyn_> zul: cool
[15:48]  * hallyn_ hands zul a helmet and a pickaxe
[16:20] <med_> utlemming, smoser gaughen : are dailies for trusty broken?  Seeing weirdness at http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/trusty/ with PPC only builds and not the latest amd64 in current
[16:20] <zul> hallyn_:  do we really need patch-qemuMonitorTextGetMigrationStatus-to-intercept.patch anymore?
[16:21] <zul> med_:  didnt you know we are doing ppc only these days..
[16:21] <med_> zul, ah, that explains it.
[16:21] <zul> med_:  im joking
[16:21]  * med_ buys a bunch of power gear and gives the commish to zul
[16:21] <med_> zul, I knew you were joking. I do have a horrid humor filter but that one was obvious.
[16:21] <hallyn_> zul: i shouldn't think so
[16:21] <med_> :-)
[16:22] <smoser> med_, i'll push on that. there does seem to be some issus there.
[16:22] <zul> hallyn_:  dropping it
[16:22] <med_> zul, and don't go spending that commission until the check clears. :^)
[16:22] <med_> smoser, grazie.
[16:22] <zul> hallyn_:  if anyone complains...welll...my bad
[16:24] <hallyn_> zul: kvm up to versions 72.  time to move on
[16:26] <smoser> med, http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/trusty/current/ is still good
[16:27] <smoser> med_, and also the streams data looks correct
[16:27] <utlemming> med, smoser: what happened with the daily is that the EC2 publisher got hung up over the weekend
[16:27] <med_> smoser, there appears to be a two day newer version o trusty in 31.1
[16:27] <utlemming> med, smoser: this should be fixed shortly
[16:27] <med_> utlemming, cool
[16:27] <utlemming> med_: right, the publisher broke
[16:27] <med_> gotcha
[16:27] <smoser> med_, but thats not necessarily an issue.
[16:28]  * med_ pinged utlemming before he was here and then he arrived... that power will go to my head.
[16:28] <smoser> thats not a promise. 'current' should point to the latest "good" build for sure.
[16:28] <med_> smoser, ack.
[16:28]  * med_ puerges 31.1 and goes for current
[16:28] <smoser> and simplestreams should have the right data.
[16:29] <med_> smoser, I'm trying to use simplestreams but I'm not there yet. (It's on my work backlog list though.)
[16:29] <smoser> but i dont particularly care if a numeric string in rendered output of an apache directory listing seems to look like a build-id to you.
[16:29] <zul> hallyn_:  do you want me to include cgmanager patch?
[16:30] <hallyn_> zul: which one is that?
[16:30] <hallyn_> if you mean the one to make libvirt work with cgmanager, then no, i'm still working on that
[16:30] <hallyn_> but maybe i'm forgetting about another patch?
[16:31] <med_> smoser, is there a datestamp of the build somewhere exposed/obvious in the cloud-image?
[16:31] <med_> (once I say launch a given cloud-iamge)?
[16:31] <utlemming> med_: loko at /etc/cloud/build.info
[16:31] <med_> danke
[16:31] <zul> hallyn_:  im just going through the libvirt bugs
[16:32] <hallyn_> zul: bug#?
[16:32] <zul> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1322677
[16:32] <hallyn_> zul: ok!  yeah please do wait.  i'm going to get containers working first, which requires two more things to be fixed (cgroups mounting in containers, and the virCgroupTaskKill stuff)
[16:33] <hallyn_> though what's there now *might* be enough for xnox
[16:33] <hallyn_> xnox: you ust want to be able to run libvirt with qemu vms inside a container/
[16:34] <xnox> hallyn_: i don't even want to run anything =) just want to drop cgroup-lite from the archive completely.
[16:34] <zul> hallyn_:  ack
[16:34] <hallyn_> ok, thanks, i'll just aim to do tha tnext week
[16:35] <zul> hallyn_:  ill put it in a  ppa for you to test
[16:43] <hallyn_> ahs3: of course i really should apply for DM for netcf so i can quit bothering you
[17:01] <smoser> med_, fwiw, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7574300/ is a simple thing that you can probably follow.
[17:01] <smoser> gives output of some data that you can probably read and securly got the latest image url and the sha256 sum for that.
[17:02] <med_> thanks smoser
[17:02]  * med_ has been watching old design summit videoa
[17:02] <med_> yep, that's pretty simple (simple enough for me)
[17:35] <zul> hallyn_:  it will be here https://launchpad.net/~zulcss/+archive/libvirt-testing when it builds if it builds etc
[17:36] <hallyn_> zul: ok, thx
[17:36] <No_one_at_all> So we're upgrading our dedi from 13.10 to 14.04 LTS, and we're running a RAID 1 (I believe?)
[17:36] <No_one_at_all> We got this error: GRUB failed to install to the following devices: /dev/md1
[17:36] <No_one_at_all> are we totally boned?
[17:38] <No_one_at_all> ...anybody?
[17:39] <rostam> HI I am trying to port our systems to ubuntu 14.04. One think I see very odd and different between 14.04 and prior ubuntu releases is the network interface names. There is no eth0 or eth1. The result of the ifconfig has two interfaces: lo (local loopback) and  p6p1 (with IPv4 address). We have developed lot us of scripts based on eth0 and eth1 on older ubuntu.... thx
[17:42] <rberg_> No_one_at_all: you need to install grub to the disks that make up the md  not the md array its self
[17:42] <No_one_at_all> rberg_: right, but ...how do I do that?
[17:43] <No_one_at_all> oh, wait.
[17:43] <No_one_at_all> rberg_: gee why can't ubuntu handle that itself. >_<
[17:46] <rberg_> No_one_at_all: it should be able to handle it correctly.. check out whats set in debconf for "grub-pc/install_devices"
[17:54] <zul> hallyn_:  ftbfs :(
[19:29] <No_one_at_all> rberg_: we've got RAID1 going. Installing would just involve grub-install /dev/sda, and grub-install /dev/sdb, and then update-grub, right? (/me crosses fingers)
[19:30] <rberg_> that sounds right.. if thats how many drives you have
[19:40] <No_one_at_all> rberg_: yeah, raid1 on two drives.
[19:41] <No_one_at_all> I just don't understand why the upgrade didn't frickin' handle itself
[19:44] <rberg_> dont know.. I bet if you ran echo "grub-pc  grub-pc/install_devices                 multiselect  /dev/sda /dev/sdb"| debconf-set-selections would get it doing the right thing
[20:42] <sudormrf> hey guys.  I am trying to troubleshoot an issue with two VMs I have setup.  One is the server the other a client.  The server is acting as the primary DHCP and DNS server.  The server IS providing an IP address to the client, but it is not pushing down the nameserver and search domain info.  I have been looking over the dhcpd.conf and dhclient.conf files looking for a mistake, but I think I have hit a wall and submit to your good graces :
[20:42] <sudormrf> D.
[20:44] <sudormrf> am I looking in the right files?  why wouldn't this information be pushed out to the clients?
[20:50] <TJ-> sudormrf: without seeing the config it's impossible to know what the issue is
[20:52] <sudormrf> TJ-, let me post them.  hold please :D
[20:52]  * TJ- hums along to the musak
[20:53] <rostam> HI I am trying to port our systems to ubuntu 14.04. One think I see very odd and different between 14.04 and prior ubuntu releases is the network interface names.

[20:56] <tgm4883> Running a Mysql server on 12.04, Friday night, all of our wordpress instances couldn't connect to the DB, and required me to restart the mysql service to get them connected again (wordpress and mysql are on different hosts). I see a few empty mysql logs in /var/log/ and an empty /var/log/mysql/ directory. Is there somewhere else I should be looking for logs
[20:56] <tgm4883> or did a previous admin disable mysql logging
[20:59] <sudormrf> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7575692
[21:10] <TJ-> sudormrf: On the client, does "/var/log/syslog" or the dhclient log, show the options being received?
[21:10] <sudormrf> TJ-, let me check the client.
[21:11] <TJ-> sudormrf: My first step would be to run tcpdump and see if the options are coming in... that way you know where to focus your attention
[21:12] <sudormrf> TJ-, dhclient log is server side, correct?
[21:12] <mwhudson> how can i give data to cloud-init when not in an actual cloud-type environment?
[21:12] <TJ-> sudormrf: no, its client-side... it can, if you configure it, record the conversation with the server in terms of options received, even if they are ignored
[21:14] <Pupeno> How do you reset ufw without having it wait for you to type yes?
[21:14] <sudormrf> TJ-, hmm.  /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.leases is blank
[21:14] <sudormrf> hang on
[21:15] <mwhudson> ah http://foss-boss.blogspot.co.nz/2010/12/cloud-instance-with-cloud-init-on-kvm.html appears relevant to my interests
[21:29] <rostam> TJ: thanks
[21:59] <sudormrf> TJ-, you still around
