| jtv | bigjools: do you remember what we decided about the API problem of "PUT one field, reset all the others"? Do we simply accept that clients have to read and re-PUT the full object? | 03:11 |
| bigjools | jtv: I don't remember if we even decided anything | 03:21 |
| bigjools | I think PUTing the whole thing makes sense | 03:21 |
| jtv | For some value of sense. | 03:21 |
| bigjools | since you can't create that way | 03:21 |

| jtv | Hi onicrom | 11:35 |
| onicrom | fingers crossed i can get this 'custom' partition working in curtin | 11:53 |
| onicrom | ok i seem to have found whats going on | 12:25 |
| onicrom | it looks like the default for my system is pt_mbr | 12:29 |
| onicrom | which has a bug | 12:29 |
| onicrom | it also looks like the params passed to pt_mbr are ignored. | 12:35 |
| onicrom | also a bug | 12:35 |
| onicrom | ok submitted a bug | 12:43 |

| blake_r | allenap: could I get a really quick review, for my stupidity! | 15:02 |
| allenap | blake_r: Sure. | 15:02 |
| allenap | blake_r: Is IntegerField really not enough? Woo. | 15:02 |
| blake_r | allenap: yeah it is, but might not be if file is larger than 4tb, that should never happen! | 15:03 |
| blake_r | allenap: sorry I mean large than 2gb | 15:03 |
| blake_r | allenap: you set it to approved? not you approving it | 15:03 |
| allenap | blake_r: Sorry! Fixed. | 15:03 |
| blake_r | allenap: thanks | 15:04 |
| jtv | allenap: my branch may have a huge diff but it's actually really really simple: moved a bunch of functions from provisioningserver.utils to provisioningserver.utils.twisted. | 15:13 |
| onicrom | ok i need to speak to the guy who wrote curtin :) | 15:22 |
| onicrom | i have hacked the /usr/lib/curtin/helper/common script 6 ways from sunday | 15:22 |
| onicrom | i can see that my chages are being executed, but the installed system always always creates a 2tb root filesystem | 15:23 |
| jtv | I think that's smoser. | 15:23 |
| jtv | blake_r, did you say you figured out how to make curtin sing & dance? | 15:26 |
| blake_r | jtv: I stay far away from the bash scripting that smoser wrote! | 15:27 |
| jtv | Good man. But _someone_ said they figured it out and it wasn't so hard once you cracked the secret. | 15:27 |
| jtv | jhobbs maybe? | 15:27 |
| blake_r | jtv: i wrote the uefi partitioner in the bash | 15:27 |
| blake_r | jtv: i cried most of the time, lol | 15:27 |
| jtv | (Still think they should have named the GNU shell "gnash") | 15:28 |
| Spads | that's the flash player | 15:28 |
| jtv | It is _now_, yes. But at the time there wasn't one. :) | 15:28 |
| blake_r | onicrom: if you have a paste of your bash script I can take a look | 15:28 |
| onicrom | blake im updating the bug | 15:29 |

| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1354426 in MAAS "curtin creates a 2TB root fs/partition by default" [Undecided,New] | 15:30 |
| onicrom | thanks ubot5 :) | 15:31 |
| blake_r | onicrom: you want the partition bigger than 2tb? | 15:32 |
| blake_r | onicrom: you cannot create a partition larger than 2tb on mbr partition layout | 15:32 |
| blake_r | onicrom: you need to use a gpt partition layout | 15:32 |
| onicrom | i know | 15:34 |
| onicrom | i dont want to | 15:34 |
| onicrom | i want to create a 50Gb root partition | 15:34 |
| onicrom | the default option in common is to use mbr, i tried to switch this to gpt and modify the size values there but that just errored completely the pt_gpt function is broken | 15:35 |
| blake_r | onicrom: are you sure that '1,6490,L' is correct? | 15:43 |
| onicrom | based on the sfdisk man page yes | 15:43 |
| onicrom | ive tried using cylendars sectors etc | 15:43 |
| onicrom | same thing | 15:43 |
| onicrom | based on some math that is the correct number of cyls for 50gb | 15:44 |
| onicrom | or ~ anyway im not that picky | 15:44 |
| blake_r | looks like its only 50gb partition, thats what you want, you just need another line for the other partition | 15:54 |
| onicrom | what other partition? | 15:54 |
| onicrom | no matter what i do something is creating a 2TB partition | 15:57 |
| onicrom | so weird doesnt matter what i execute something creates a 2TB partition... i wonder... let me try a brand new machine without any existing table maybe the bit that wipes the existing partitions is broken :) | 16:02 |
| === matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch | ||
| jtv | blake_r: have you run the 1.6 (or 1.5, 1.4 etc.) tests lately? I'm seeing a test failure in trunk that's related to commissioning timeouts, and it looks like it might be timezone-sensitive. | 16:17 |
| jtv | You're in a negative UTC offset now, right? | 16:18 |
| blake_r | jtv: unit tests? i am running trunk | 16:18 |
| blake_r | jtv: never had an issue | 16:18 |
| jtv | Right, unit tests — specifically, src/maasserver/tests/test_api_commissioning.py:TestCommissioningTimeout | 16:19 |
| blake_r | jtv: i am -5 | 16:19 |
| blake_r | jtv: never seen a failure there | 16:19 |
| jtv | Yes, if this is the timezones, then trunk should pass for you — but maybe you'd get the converse bug in 1.6 or older. | 16:19 |
| blake_r | jtv: i will try 1.6 | 16:19 |
| jtv | Where the tests creates a node that started commissioning an hour and one second ago, but it doesn't time out yet. | 16:19 |
| jtv | Thanks! | 16:19 |
| jtv | You'd have to run "make && ./bin/test.maas src/maasserver/tests/test_api_commissioning.py:TestCommissioningTimeout" | 16:20 |

| blake_r | Your welcome. | 16:21 |
| jtv | blake_r: I think I'm one step closer! My databases in 1.6 and trunk seem to be running at different timezone offsets... | 16:28 |
| jtv | It may have been the travel that caused it. | 16:28 |
| blake_r | jtv: isn't the database created before each test run? | 16:29 |
| blake_r | jtv: its different than make syncdb | 16:29 |
| jtv | Yes, but maybe the local database _cluster_ that lives inside the branch still had a remnant of UTC+1... | 16:29 |
| jtv | (Wow, I don't know what type of animal I just slapped off my leg but it had a lot more rump than a mosquito and it spilled a lot of blood...) | 16:30 |
| jtv | (Mine, of course!) | 16:30 |
| blake_r | got a lot of mosquitos where your at? | 16:31 |
| jtv | Ohhh yes. | 16:32 |
| jtv | Not a lot of bites so far, I think. These are not those little Euro bugs — you feel the sting WHILE they're biting you. | 16:33 |
| blake_r | Damn. | 16:36 |
| jtv | That's a funny change in habits I had to go through: when I felt a mosquito bite, I used to say to myself "oh well, it's already happened, all I can do now is try not to scratch it." So I reacted slowly on purpose. | 16:37 |
| jtv | Here, when you feel the bite, you need to hurry so you can still get rid of the bastard! | 16:38 |
| * jtv looks accusingly at 3 geckos overhead that failed to catch this one | 16:38 | |
| blake_r | jtv: where are you? the jungle? lol | 16:38 |
| jtv | Pretty much. | 16:38 |
| onicrom | is there a way to make the fastpath installer the default? | 16:41 |
| ctlaugh | I am trying to get some modifications to dhcpd.conf.template to take effect, but saving the cluster controller does not update /etc/maas/dhcpd.conf. | 16:45 |
| ctlaugh | ^ Any suggestions? | 16:45 |
| ctlaugh | (I am running trusty) | 16:46 |
| jtv | onicrom: it's the default now. | 16:47 |
| jtv | ctlaugh: try saving a cluster controller interface rather than just the cluster controller. You may have to make a small change just to convince it. | 16:48 |
| onicrom | jtv, not in the version thats installed with trusty | 16:49 |
| jtv | onicrom: then marking a node for the fast-path installer sets a tag. | 16:49 |
| ctlaugh | jtv: I tried that as well -- still not getting updated | 16:49 |
| ctlaugh | ls -al | 16:49 |
| onicrom | jtv is there a way to set that tag on all nodes upon creation? | 16:49 |
| * ctlaugh typed in the wrong window by mistake | 16:49 | |
| jtv | onicrom: I think there is, but I haven't done it myself — set an xpath expression for the tag that simply always matches. | 16:50 |
| jtv | onicrom: then for any new node, the system will see if it matches the xpath expression and if so, give it that tag. | 16:50 |
| ctlaugh | jtv: Is there any way outside of the web ui (like a command line) to force an update? | 16:50 |
| jtv | Thinking... | 16:51 |
| jtv | You'd have to update a cluster interface field that actually affected the dhcp settings, such as increasing the dynamic IP range by 1 address (and then taking it back again if you care enough). | 16:51 |
| onicrom | im beginning to think that the 'helpers' in curtin really dont do anything | 16:59 |
| ctlaugh | jtv: That's what I did. I changed on end of the address range. | 17:05 |
| jtv | Hmmm... that ought to restart the dhcp server. | 17:06 |
| jtv | Assuming it's an interface where maas manages dhcp. | 17:06 |
| ctlaugh | jtv: Not only is it not picking up my changes (from the template), it's also not getting the range change from what I modified in the UI. | 17:07 |
| ctlaugh | How can I verify that it thinks it's managing dhcp on that interface? | 17:07 |
| ctlaugh | Something I also recently did was change the IP address of the maas server. | 17:07 |
| jtv | Should be simple: the cluster must have been accepted into the maas, and its management setting should be either "DHCP" or "DHCP and DNS." | 17:08 |
| ctlaugh | UI shows accepted, and interface shows "Manage DHCP and DNS" | 17:09 |
| jtv | Owww, the mechanism that we use to carry messages from the region controller to the cluster controller, RabbitMQ, doesn't take too kindly to changing addresses. | 17:09 |
| jtv | That would explain it, I think. | 17:09 |
| jtv | (And yes, we're now in the process of getting rid of it!) | 17:10 |
| ctlaugh | I ran dpkg-reconfigure on both maas-cluster-controller and maas-region-controller to fix the addresses, and think I rebooted after doing that (but possibly before) | 17:11 |
| ctlaugh | Is there somewhere else that might need to be updated? | 17:11 |
| jtv | Try a "grep -rI $OLD_ADDRESS /etc/rabbit*" | 17:13 |
| ctlaugh | jtv: no matches, and /etc/rabbitmq is empty | 17:14 |
| jtv | Oh, or /var/lib/rabbit* perhaps? | 17:16 |
| jtv | We may store that stuff in the maas /etc or /var trees... I remember running into this in the past and just grepping like mad. | 17:16 |
| jtv | And it did turn up rabbit files. | 17:16 |
| ctlaugh | jtv: ok, after a reboot and modifying the interface again, it worked. | 17:18 |
| jtv | \o/ | 17:18 |
| ctlaugh | apparently, I changed the ip address in /etc/interfaces, rebooted, then ran dpkg-reconfigure | 17:19 |
| ctlaugh | I should have restarted things after the reconfigure as well | 17:19 |
| ctlaugh | jtv: thank you for your help | 17:20 |
| jtv | Glad it worked out. | 17:20 |
| jtv | As always, "have you tried turning it off and on again?" :) | 17:20 |

| newell | onicrom, still hitting your head against the way with curtin? | 22:32 |
| newell | ;) | 22:32 |
| onicrom | dood | 22:32 |
| onicrom | im dying here | 22:32 |
| onicrom | im about to change the grub to drop me to a shell | 22:33 |
| newell | onicrom, the only code that I have modified for curtin so far has been to add the ability to add a separate boot partition, which is only supported for gpt currently | 22:33 |
| onicrom | and howd that work? | 22:33 |
| onicrom | i switched to gpt | 22:33 |
| newell | good, its in trunk now | 22:33 |
| newell | what you will need to do is you will need to make new block_meta commands | 22:34 |
| newell | to be able to set the size | 22:34 |
| onicrom | can you paste me like to the code? | 22:34 |
| newell | take a look at curtin/curtin/commands/block_meta.py | 22:34 |
| onicrom | also.... the part that is confusing me is im able to get it to create the partition layout i want | 22:35 |
| newell | this is the code that calls the "partition" script which then calls the "common" script | 22:35 |
| onicrom | and when helpers/common runs and exits sgdisk -p /dev/sda | 22:35 |
| onicrom | prints out what i want | 22:35 |
| onicrom | then it reboots and its gone and changed sda1 to be the full isize of the disk | 22:35 |
| newell | are you modifying templates? | 22:35 |
| onicrom | where are said templates? | 22:36 |
| newell | let me re-phrase my question | 22:36 |
| newell | How are you calling curtin? | 22:36 |
| newell | or are you just hacking the code in curtin? | 22:36 |
| onicrom | hacking the code in curtin | 22:37 |
| onicrom | well ... im editing the common shell script which is exected by the partition shell script which is executed by block_meta | 22:38 |
| newell | okay so yeah you can go about it that way too | 22:38 |
| onicrom | have you seen my long ass bug? | 22:39 |

| * newell takes a look | 22:41 | |
| newell | ha...the gremlins | 22:42 |
| newell | is there any way you can convert to the newest code? | 22:45 |
| onicrom | sure might need help :) | 22:45 |
| newell | okay no problem | 22:45 |
| newell | I can help | 22:45 |
| newell | $ sudo apt-get install bzr | 22:46 |
| newell | you need bzr to check out the source | 22:46 |
| onicrom | ok | 22:46 |
| newell | once you have bzr you can create a branch | 22:46 |
| onicrom | give me 2 mins | 22:46 |
| onicrom | need to potty break | 22:46 |
| newell | $ bzr branch lp:curtin curtin | 22:46 |
| newell | that will make a directory called curtin for you | 22:46 |
| newell | $ cd curtin | 22:47 |
| newell | $ ./tools/build-deb -uc -us | 22:47 |
| newell | The above command will build all the *.deb packages for you that you need | 22:47 |
| newell | then you can install them doing: | 22:47 |
| newell | $ sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 22:47 |
| onicrom | done | 22:53 |
| newell | onicrom, everything worked? | 22:54 |
| newell | for install that is | 22:54 |
| onicrom | yes im going to rebuild one box | 22:55 |
| onicrom | just to see | 22:55 |
| newell | onicrom, so now you know how to take the source and make a package out of it | 22:55 |
| newell | so, you can hack it up, then install it etc | 22:56 |
| onicrom | thats pretty sweet | 22:56 |
| newell | the results you were mentioning were for hardware correct? | 22:56 |
| onicrom | you mentioned etemplates | 22:56 |
| newell | not the devel stuff? | 22:56 |
| onicrom | what do you mean hardware results/ | 22:56 |
| newell | I mentioned to you in the email how if you follow doc/devel/README.txt it will show you how to develop for curtin with qemu images | 22:57 |
| newell | I was wondering if the results you mentioned in the bug report are for that (qemu) or on actual hardware? | 22:57 |
| onicrom | ohhhh that yes hardware | 22:57 |
| onicrom | everything im doing is on baremetal | 22:58 |
| newell | k | 22:58 |
| onicrom | i have 20 servers im trying to get ready for openstack :) | 22:58 |
| newell | nice :) | 22:58 |
| newell | so let me know what issues you run into later on but at least you have the most current code installed | 22:59 |
| onicrom | i only have ipmi access via serial over lan... and the debian installer hoses the network for ipmi somehow (the nic is shared between the ipmi and the os) | 22:59 |
| onicrom | so im forced to use curtin | 22:59 |
| onicrom | as it does not do such network fuckery | 22:59 |
| onicrom | do you know what happens with regards to partitions/disks upon first boot after the curtin bit is run? | 23:00 |
| newell | you mean after curtin installs? | 23:02 |
| onicrom | correct | 23:02 |
| onicrom | ok so that didnt work | 23:03 |
| onicrom | i have no /boot | 23:03 |
| newell | you need to use the simple-boot command | 23:03 |
| newell | not the default simple | 23:03 |
| newell | currently it is dependent on which architecture you have | 23:03 |
| onicrom | how do i select | 23:05 |
| onicrom | change in block_meta or ? | 23:07 |
| newell | onicrom, give me a second | 23:08 |
| onicrom | for you | 23:08 |
| onicrom | take 2! | 23:08 |
| newell | onicrom, sorry about that | 23:13 |
| onicrom | np i hard coded | 23:13 |
| newell | take a look at doc/topics/overview.rst | 23:13 |
| onicrom | boot=true | 23:13 |
| newell | yeah you can do that too ;) | 23:14 |
| newell | that will make you a 512MiB separate /boot partition on /dev/sda1 | 23:14 |
| newell | and the rest of the disk will have / partition on /dev/sda2 | 23:15 |
| onicrom | i changed that to +50G | 23:15 |
| onicrom | i hope hope hope that works | 23:15 |
| onicrom | $end is bad for me :) | 23:15 |
| newell | yeah curtin could really use this feature | 23:15 |
| onicrom | ok good news | 23:16 |
| onicrom | no boot partition | 23:16 |
| onicrom | BUT | 23:16 |
| onicrom | root is 50gG!@!!!!!!@#$@%$@#% | 23:16 |
| newell | how are you verifying the partitions? | 23:16 |
| onicrom | sorry let me rephrase | 23:17 |
| onicrom | /boot is there, but there is no fstab reference | 23:17 |
| newell | that is because you hardcoded it | 23:17 |
| newell | the fstab code is in block_meta.py | 23:17 |
| onicrom | ah :) | 23:17 |
| newell | yeah its a cluster fsck | 23:17 |
| newell | onicrom, what you can do is you can hard code the default to get the fstab | 23:18 |
| newell | instead of doing the hack in common | 23:19 |
| newell | change... | 23:19 |
| * newell looks where it is | 23:19 | |
| newell | install.py at the top has block-meta using 'simple' | 23:19 |
| newell | change that to 'simple-boot' | 23:19 |
| newell | that or you can specify the partitioning command as the overview.rst shows | 23:19 |
| onicrom | lemme try that one | 23:20 |
| onicrom | i still need to hack common | 23:20 |
| newell | yeah for the size part you will | 23:21 |
| onicrom | --new "1::+1G" --typecode=1:8300 \ | 23:21 |
| onicrom | --new "2::+50G" --typecode=2:8300 "$target" || | 23:21 |
| onicrom | it be nice to pass those variables just lke passing simple-boot | 23:21 |
| newell | file a bug report for the ability to create custom boot partitions (i.e. the size) | 23:21 |
| onicrom | hell it would be simple to pass 1:size:mount and have common iterate over an array | 23:22 |
| onicrom | as well as block_meta | 23:22 |
| newell | yeah shouldn't be too hard | 23:23 |
| newell | feel free to add it and contribute if you like :) | 23:23 |
| onicrom | i would put some disclaimer... if you put in numbers here that do not match the disks available its your own damn fault | 23:24 |
| onicrom | i mean right now it tries to be smart about the sizes and what not but i say let people shoot themselves in the foot :) | 23:25 |
| onicrom | would paritioning_commands:./curtin/commands/block_meta.py: 'choices': ['raid0', SIMPLE, SIMPLE_BOOT]}), | 23:30 |
| onicrom | inside curtin_preseed? | 23:30 |
| === CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob|Away | ||
| newell | onicrom, did you take a look at overview.rst? | 23:32 |
| newell | it shows how to do the partitioning commands | 23:32 |
| onicrom | vi ues | 23:32 |
| onicrom | 50_setup_raid: curtin disk-setup --all-disks raid0 / | 23:32 |
| newell | yes | 23:32 |
| newell | so that gives examples | 23:33 |
| onicrom | change raid0 to SIMPLE_BOOT | 23:33 |
| newell | no | 23:33 |
| newell | you would do similar to what is install here | 23:33 |
| newell | 00_something_blah: curtin block-meta simple-boot... | 23:34 |
| newell | something along those lines | 23:34 |
| newell | similar to install.py* | 23:34 |
| onicrom | ahhh block_meta | 23:35 |
| newell | I have never done it this way so not sure on the exact syntax | 23:35 |
| newell | but I know install.py is doing this (those are the defaults at the top if nothing in the configuration sets it) | 23:35 |
| onicrom | 'partitioning_commands': { | 23:35 |
| onicrom | 'builtin': ['curtin', 'block-meta', 'simple']}, | 23:35 |
| onicrom | there we go | 23:36 |
| onicrom | paritioning_commands: 10_doshit: ['curtin', 'block-meta', 'simple-boot'] | 23:36 |
| onicrom | i really need to pick up python :) | 23:37 |
| newell | yeap | 23:37 |
| newell | so where you going to put that last line? | 23:37 |
| onicrom | /etc/maas/preseeds/curtin_userdata | 23:38 |
| newell | yeap ;) | 23:38 |
| onicrom | i threw it after early_commands and before late_commands | 23:38 |
| newell | go ahead and give that a go and let me know how it works | 23:38 |
| newell | correct | 23:38 |
| newell | that is what overview.rst says at least | 23:38 |
| onicrom | its running now :) | 23:38 |
| onicrom | ok cross your fingers the install is going | 23:39 |
| onicrom | the part that was confusing me earlier... i did a set -x in the common script saw exactly what was being run | 23:40 |
| onicrom | and i was at a complete loss as to how the partition size was changing | 23:40 |
| newell | cool, let me know how it goes | 23:40 |
| onicrom | question about python with the file.py and file.pyc | 23:42 |
| onicrom | will it exec the pyc? so the contents of the py could have been one way and the pyc did something compeltely different? | 23:42 |
| newell | pyc is executed by if there are any modifications to the original py before running it will re-compile the byte code for the pyc | 23:43 |
| onicrom | ok. | 23:43 |
| newell | so you should be good, as long as you saved the file ;) | 23:43 |
| onicrom | also my new machine now has a 2.7TB fs .... | 23:43 |
| newell | is that what you wanted? | 23:44 |
| onicrom | it juuust had a 50G wtf | 23:44 |
| onicrom | nope | 23:44 |
| onicrom | common has the code changes the only difference this time was boot=true was set to false | 23:44 |
| newell | you changed the curtin_userdata? | 23:45 |
| onicrom | correct | 23:45 |
| newell | did it at least create the separate /boot partition? | 23:45 |
| onicrom | but i would think even without that change it would have executed common which would have done: --new "1::+50G" --typecode=1:8300 "$target" || | 23:45 |
| newell | what does sudo mount say when you login to the node | 23:46 |
| newell | ? | 23:46 |
| newell | what common file are you editing? | 23:46 |
| newell | did you re-create the package again? | 23:46 |
| newell | also for maas, when you change the curtin_userdata...which file are you changing? | 23:47 |
| newell | all those things matter | 23:48 |
| onicrom | mount | 23:48 |
| onicrom | /dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw) | 23:48 |
| onicrom | and the normal tmpfs stuff | 23:49 |
| newell | k, what about the other questions? | 23:49 |
| onicrom | /etc/maas/preseeds/curtin_userdata | 23:49 |
| onicrom | editing: /usr/lib/curtin/helpers/common | 23:49 |
| newell | maybe print to the console to make sure you are executing what you think you should be in common? | 23:52 |
| onicrom | im going to set -x that bitch! | 23:53 |
| newell | :) | 23:53 |
| newell | I have never used that, how does it work? | 23:54 |
| onicrom | i was very close to adding a /bin/bash to the grub line it enters to drop me to a prompt before the first boot | 23:54 |
| onicrom | lol | 23:54 |
| onicrom | set -x in bash is essentially debug mode, it will show you everything its doing | 23:55 |
| newell | cool never used it but playing with it now | 23:55 |
| newell | so why are you setting up different partitions, is that something you think you would use often? | 23:56 |
| onicrom | i want to use lvm for most of my storage so i can do lvm snapshots for my lxc containers | 23:57 |
| onicrom | if i also want to setup drdb replication | 23:57 |
| onicrom | linux has always has /boot as a non-journal'd filesystem for safety | 23:57 |
| onicrom | so i want that and generally i throw everything in lvm volumes so that if i need to grow them later its super easy | 23:58 |
| onicrom | ok so something broke :) | 23:58 |
| newell | what did set -x tell you? | 23:59 |
| onicrom | https://paste.tinyw.in/index.php/view/11650792 | 23:59 |
| onicrom | it didnt get that far this time.. | 23:59 |
