| z1haze | where does one go to get help with a ubuntu-server? im apparently in the wrong place | 00:22 |
|---|---|---|
| lifeless | z1haze: here, or stack overflow | 00:44 |
| z1haze | i get no help here | 00:44 |
| lifeless | z1haze: whats your question? | 00:45 |
| z1haze | im trying to setup virtualization on a dedicated server | 00:45 |
| z1haze | but i dont really know how | 00:45 |
| z1haze | ive been following the tutorial but a much im not sure about | 00:46 |
| rbasak | z1haze: maybe try the server guide? https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide/cloud-images-and-uvtool.html has some steps. | 00:46 |
| rbasak | z1haze: but you'll still need to sort out networking to those VMs if you want your users to have access externally. | 00:46 |
| z1haze | i was following the tutorial for linux-kvm | 00:46 |
| rbasak | There are a number of different ways of setting up VMs. | 00:46 |
| z1haze | im following this tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualization-with-kvm-on-ubuntu-12.04-lts | 00:46 |
| z1haze | im down to the reboot step now its currently restarting | 00:47 |
| z1haze | can someone plz help me with that? creating an image-based vm | 00:53 |
| z1haze | can someone please tell me what is a good size for partitioning a vps? | 01:13 |
| z1haze | like for root/ swap, and /var? | 01:13 |
| lifeless | depends on your worklaod | 01:18 |
| lifeless | I wouldn't make it less than 1G | 01:18 |
| maxb | I'd question whether you actually derive any benefit from a separate /var too, but again that's dependent on your use cases | 01:19 |
| z1haze | when using the vm builder, the --cpus flag is that for how many cores you wanna let the vm use? | 01:41 |
| z1haze | like is my cpu has 6 cores i say 6? | 01:41 |
| z1haze | crap, i messed up somewhere, something about the root user already exists? | 01:52 |
| z1haze | when setting up a vm the --user isnt that the default login for the vm? | 01:53 |
| z1haze | isnt that typically root? | 01:53 |

| phunyguy | hey folks... got a weird thing going on with my new libvirt setup and ubuntu machines... seems to be a race condition between dhclient and nfs trying to mount shares before the interface has an IP, causing the system to get confused. This happens in 14.04 and 12.04. | 03:21 |
| phunyguy | any ideas? | 03:21 |
| Pinchiukas | Can anybody explain to me why ubuntu-server base installation is several times larger than Debian? | 05:00 |

| SierraAR | Just realised I sent this in the wrong channel before.. Oops | 07:09 |
| SierraAR | So I'm having an odd issue with my ubuntu server 12.04. When I SSH into it, I'm just sitting at this screen, without any ability to send any commans to the server. I know the ssh connection is up and working, as SSH tunneling is functioning normally: http://bts.sierrabrown.me/ubuntuserverssh.png | 07:09 |
| SierraAR | The last thing I did before this issue came up was run 'exit' from a tmux to return to ubuntu proper instead of using a tmux window | 07:09 |
| SierraAR | Oh, hey it suddenly worked and I'm back in a shell, after sitting for ~10 minutes. Any ideas what could have caused that? | 07:10 |
| riz0n | Hello, I have Ubuntu 12.04 Server LTS running on my server. I want to upgrade to 14.04.1 Server LTS. When I enter "do-release-upgrade" from the console, it tells me there is "No release found" ... how can I upgrade my server to 14.04.1? | 07:11 |
| SierraAR | riz0n: This was given to me earlier when I asked the same thing: [11:24] <TJ-> SierraAR: We are waiting for http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts to have Trusty added. If you have precise-proposed enabled on 12.04, you should have an updated update-manager-core, and can do "do-release-upgrade --proposed" | 07:12 |
| SierraAR | I didn't get a chance to ask anything more about it, though | 07:12 |
| riz0n | Dang. | 07:13 |
| riz0n | I know they have released two new versions of the update-manager-core, I assumed so we could do the update, but nothing :( | 07:14 |
| riz0n | I would be willing to enable the "precise-proposed" to update to 14.04.1, then disable it once done (as long as I know for sure that's what it would update to) | 07:14 |
| riz0n | I'm only "in town" where my server is at on weekends, and would love to go ahead and knock it out of the way (don't really want to update on the road just in case SHTF i can physically access the machine) | 07:15 |
| riz0n | and would love to do it tonight so that the machine is not down during daylight peak hours. | 07:16 |

| mickkie | Hi All, I'm trying to upgrade from LTS 12.04.4 to the latest 14.04.1, but all I get when running 'sudo do-release-upgrade' is: "No new release found". There's no ppa repos listed in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, or anywhere else that I can see. | 10:53 |

| Glyndwr1974 | Anyone awake? | 11:53 |
| Glyndwr1974 | Help!! Made a silly mistake and removed mdadm package on server with only raid arrays running, cant boot for obvious reasons :| | 11:54 |
| Glyndwr1974 | How can I put it back? | 11:54 |
| Glyndwr1974 | My first thought was to use the ubuntu installer on usb, chroot to the installed os then apt-get install it back, cant seem to do that as the shells on the usb installer wont let me | 11:55 |
| Glyndwr1974 | I would start again but I've got over 2TB of data on there I dont have a copy of. | 11:56 |
| Glyndwr1974 | Yeah..... I found a shell and managed it now, thanks for all the many varied responses to my request for help. | 12:06 |

| samba35 | if i want to default installed puppet repo with priority what i should do | 13:42 |
| Patrickdk | that doesn't even look like a ubuntu package | 13:42 |
| samba35 | i did i repo from puppet labs for puppet while ,ubuntu own puppet package are still there | 13:45 |
| Patrickdk | but that is NOT a ubuntu package | 13:45 |
| Patrickdk | you will have to ask the people that make it, why it's broken | 13:46 |

| lutchy | Well | 15:34 |
| lutchy | I got ban from #ubuntu | 15:34 |
| lutchy | #ubuntu-offtopic | 15:34 |
| lutchy | I wonder why I am not ban from this room too | 15:34 |
| lutchy | Well, I am going to take note the people who actually ban me | 15:35 |
| lutchy | Everything I continue to be ban, I would add a 1 too the same people who ban me again | 15:35 |
| lutchy | So, I going am going to make it statisical | 15:36 |
| Nivex | I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you haven't read/signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct then. | 15:36 |
| lutchy | I will compare my statistics to Code of Conduct | 15:37 |
| lutchy | I am going to make a formal report | 15:38 |
| Nivex | have fun with that | 15:38 |
| lutchy | LOL, that's funny | 15:40 |
| zartoosh | hi is there a control mechanism such that "apt-get upgrade" does not upgrade certain packages, for example I do not want to install the newer version than already installed on my system? thx | 15:40 |
| lutchy | Nivex, we see how that works in the end right | 15:40 |
| lutchy | For now... I don't think this forum is helpful for me | 15:43 |
| lutchy | I will be back.. stronger.. | 15:43 |

| z1haze | can someone please tell me how i would change the ip of an existing vm? i created it with vmbuilder | 17:05 |
| z1haze | please, i cant figure out how to modify an existing vm, such as the ip or allocated memory | 17:13 |
| z1haze | is it not possible to edit the ip of a vm? why won't anyone give me a hint? :( | 17:24 |
| andol | z1haze: /etc/network/interfaces | 17:25 |
| z1haze | what about that? | 17:25 |
| andol | Well, you asked for a hint :) | 17:25 |
| z1haze | oh alright | 17:26 |
| z1haze | well i know I've modified that file yestyerday when i setup the bridge | 17:26 |
| andol | Meant inside the vm. | 17:26 |
| z1haze | but im talking about like.. when i ran vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --suite=precise --flavour=virtual --arch=amd64 .... etc | 17:26 |
| z1haze | i used the wrong ip= | 17:26 |
| z1haze | isnt there like a modify command or a file I can edit to change the ip for it? | 17:27 |

| sync0pate | anyone have opinions on digitalocean? | 21:42 |
| kklimonda | sync0pate: it's good enough if you are paying for the cheapest option | 21:43 |
| sync0pate | kklimonda, what am I missing out on by not paying more? | 21:44 |
| kklimonda | sync0pate: nothing - you'll get less cpu, ram, storage, transfer, and you'll be located with a higher number of oher VMs on the same host server | 21:44 |
| kklimonda | sync0pate: what I meant by that, is that for $10 you can buy the cheapest linode | 21:44 |
| sync0pate | OK, so I guess it's good enough until and unless we notice performance problems? | 21:45 |
| kklimonda | and I've always found linode to be better, but more expensive, than DO | 21:45 |
| kklimonda | yeah | 21:45 |
| sync0pate | ok, sounds ideal then, got a client who is launching a new site | 21:45 |
| sync0pate | so users are going to be starting at zero | 21:45 |
| sync0pate | plus digitalocean have uk located servers now, which I like | 21:47 |
| kklimonda | ah yes, they do | 21:47 |
| kklimonda | although, if you are planning on spending $10/month I'd also take a look at linode | 21:48 |
| kklimonda | if you are looking for a $5/mo option though, then DO is probably the safest bet right now | 21:48 |
| kklimonda | I haven't really had any problems with them for a long time | 21:48 |
| sync0pate | well, personally I think their features look nice, they're uk-located (which is quite important) | 21:50 |
| sync0pate | and they're dirt cheap | 21:50 |
| sync0pate | so yeah, seems ok for now, could always switch over to linode if it starts getting slow | 21:51 |
| sync0pate | working with servint at the moment who I am not happy with at all | 21:51 |
| sync0pate | oh, it says linode have uk location now too.. | 21:52 |
| sync0pate | wow ok.. i checked very recently and neither of them had it.. and now they both do | 21:53 |
| Nizumzen | sync0pate: linode have had a UK datacentre for years | 22:09 |
| sync0pate | weird.. I checked them this year | 22:09 |
| Nizumzen | sync0pate: had it since at least 2012 | 22:09 |
| sync0pate | don't know how I could've missed it | 22:10 |
| arrrghhh | Nivex, lol. sorry, I need to fix my /away situation. quite often it does not properly show me /away | 23:00 |
| arrrghhh | but as for your bet... I'm thinking we're both going to bet the same way, which wouldn't be much of a bet :D | 23:00 |
| Nivex | heh. I figure they'll pull it out at the last second and we'll have to scramble to upgrade | 23:05 |
| Nivex | I may also just give up and run the -proposed upgrader | 23:05 |
| zartoosh | Hi using apt-get install <pkgname> , sometimes I get conflict with existing file and I am prompted to what to do. What I like is apt-get install the maintainer's package and do not prompt me, --force-yes -y does not do it? thx | 23:08 |
| arrrghhh | Nivex, if you're concerned about the HWE thing just upgrade your kernel only to trusty | 23:10 |
| arrrghhh | that's what I did, although I wasn't on any HWE setup so I could've just stayed on 3.2 | 23:11 |
| Nivex | oh I want to upgrade the whole distro. There are apps I've been wanting | 23:13 |
| arrrghhh | ditto | 23:13 |
| arrrghhh | but if you're concerned about HWE, you can resolve at least that bit ;) | 23:13 |

| Nivex | I'm mostly curious what the hold up is at this point. I've asked in three IRC channels and Twitter and am still no nearer an answe.r | 23:13 |
| arrrghhh | zartoosh, maybe with -o and some option...? I'm not sure, sounds dangerous. | 23:14 |
| arrrghhh | Nivex, bummer. I'm curious as well. You said there was some hangout this week for the engineering team ? | 23:14 |
