gmbrvba, allenap, jtv, bigjools: Can has review plz https://code.launchpad.net/~gmb/maas/fix-get-maas-facing-server-address/+merge/22625308:16
allenapgmb: Okeydoke.08:17
rvbaallenap: btw, before I forget, it would be great if the twisted replacements for celery tasks would give the same level of detail that we have with celery: "Task <task> name started" / "Task <task> completed in 3s."08:17
allenaprvba: Okay, that’s a good point.08:17
rvbaallenap: maybe the compatibility layer (that will use celery *or* twisted) can take care of that.08:17
rvbabigjools: rarg, I forgot this: https://code.launchpad.net/~rvb/maas/add-doc-1.6-2/+merge/22625608:28
bigjoolsallenap: need to talk to you about celery replacement work08:31

=== Eisbrecher_xnox is now known as xnox
xnoxhey people! I have a simple idea.09:12
xnoxpxe-boot initramfs & kernel, that do NFS-root boot.09:12
xnoxto have my nodes disk-less.09:12
xnoxdoes maas-controller have nfs server, or should i provide that separately?09:13
xnoxnext, I'd want to try NFS-root boot ubuntu-desktop iso image and preseed hand-off desktop install.09:14
xnoxi guess maas doesn't even need to know anything about nfsroot boot to install.09:17
xnoxit's just another pxe-boot with different files.09:18
bigjoolsthe maas ephemeral environment is already diskless, but it uses iscsi.09:19
bigjoolsonly server images have that built in AFAIK09:19
xnoxhm. i believe livecd desktop image should be capable of iscsi.09:24
xnoxbigjools: where can i read up on the maas ephemeral environment, and what is it used for?09:24
bigjoolswell you don't want to use the ephemeral env for installed nodes, it's just that iscsi is availabe already if you poke the right images into tgt and set the kernel options on the booted node09:26
xnoxgotcha09:28
bigjoolsI tried to use this to boot the xbmc image like that but it doesn't come with iscsi in the kernel09:29
allenapxnox: We have discussed running up diskless nodes before. One thought we had was using Ceph, possibly negotiated via Cinder, so that iSCSI is also supported (and whatever else Cinder supports).09:30
allenapxnox: With Ceph, at least, we could do copy-on-write to immediately provision a node.09:31
xnox"Cinder is a programming library, designed to give the C++ language advanced visualization abilities. " ?09:31
xnoxi'm guessing you are talking about some other cinder.09:31
rvbahttps://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Cinder09:32
xnoxcool.09:32
allenapxnox: It /might/ even be possible to get a node up and running using a network disk, while simultaneously pushing stuff to the local disk. Immediate provisioning, but ultimately using local disks.09:33
allenapBut I’ve not discussed that with anyone who might be able to say if it’s possible with current tech.09:33
xnoxsounds fun.09:33
xnoxfor me, it's mostly about our kernel, graphics, desktop testing.09:34
xnoxtag machines with "ati", "nvidia", etc. And then provision them with one of the desktop installs and verify that desktop install media is correct + execute various tests (boot-testing, power testing, etc.)09:34
xnoxutah is currently used, and it does provision the machines / deploys tests / collects results.09:35
xnoxbut the provision step is not as reliable as maas, nor as flexible.09:35
allenapxnox: https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/d/1ux5-jSct0ZSCye3s4SHD739ABZV9Ycd8897mNgKbRX0/edit (sorry to other folk, it’s Canonical-only right now) is a doc we started over a year ago to talk about diskless provisioning with MAAS.09:36
allenapxnox: blake_r has been doing some work on diskless booting for fun, https://code.launchpad.net/~blake-rouse/maas/diskless-boot/+merge/223553. I’m not sure how close this is to production ready though.09:38
xnoxhm, current desktop images do not have support to install onto iscsi target. shame.09:58
xnoxI should probably add that.09:58

jhobbs_Is there a good way to edit boot source selections in 1.6?16:53
=== jhobbs_ is now known as jhobbs
jhobbsi used the admin shell to edit the selections objects by hand16:53
roaksoaxjhobbs: you can point to a different config file16:54
roaksoaxnewell: ^^16:54
newellroaksoax, what did you want me to look at here?16:56
roaksoaxnewell: what's the import command you used to point at different boot resources?16:57
roaksoaxi think that's what jhobbs is wanting to do16:57
jhobbswill that replace the "grab all precise and trusty images" defaults?16:58
newelllet me paste my source.yaml16:59
newellone sec16:59
roaksoaxjhobbs: yeah i think so17:00
roaksoaxnewell: what's the command you using? maas-import-pxe-files --sources??17:00
jhobbsyeah17:00
jhobbsok i know how to do that17:00

dogfoodheadwhy does maas add 127.0.1.1 to /etc/hosts on every reboot?22:11
dogfoodheadwhy not add the ip address allocated to the node. 127.0.1.1 does not play nicely with cdh522:15
dogfoodheadhello?22:24
dogfoodheadwhich repository can I get the 1.6 version of maas?22:36
dogfoodheadthe documentation says to use "sudo add-apt-repository cloud-archive:tools" but this does not work on 14.0422:43
