[00:50] <harushimo> i'm trying to install openstack on ubuntu server.  For the hypervisor portion, can someone direct me how to setup the kvm
[00:59] <sarnold> harushimo: I hope this is helpful http://docs.openstack.org/havana/config-reference/content/kvm.html
[01:00] <sarnold> harushimo: (you may need to pick a different openstack release than havana depending upon which version you're running)
[01:00] <harushimo> i'm running whatever ubuntu server is giving me
[01:00] <harushimo> I don't know which one I can get
[01:00] <sarnold> which version of ubuntu are you using?
[01:01] <harushimo> 14.04.2
[01:01] <sarnold> 14.04 LTS is using icehouse..
[01:01] <harushimo> I thought it was a current version
[01:01] <harushimo> okay thank you
[01:01] <harushimo> I may be asking a lot of questions
[01:01] <harushimo> please bare with me
[01:02] <sarnold> http://docs.openstack.org/icehouse/config-reference/content/kvm.html
[01:02] <harushimo> i'm reading it now
[01:08] <harushimo> sarnold: thank you
[01:08] <harushimo> I can't get anyone on the openstack side to help
[01:09] <sarnold> harushimo: that's too bad :/ openstack is sooo complicated, it feels like a mentor is practically a necessity
[01:09] <harushimo> sarnold: this is my 4th attempt at it
[01:10] <harushimo> sarnold: i've debated on giving up
[01:10] <sarnold> harushimo: hehe, I know the feeling; I've thuoght before it might be easier to write tools by hand than to learn these tools..
[01:10] <shauno> I've always been under the impression that openstack is written by consultants, to keep consultants in business. might not be true, but it sure feels like it
[01:12] <harushimo> I agree with both of you
[01:14] <harushimo> i appreciate the help
[01:14] <harushimo> let me see if I can get it done successfully
[01:15] <sarnold> good luck! and have a good night
[02:00] <harushimo> another quick question
[02:00] <harushimo> does it matter if you use Xen or KVM as hypervisor
[02:01] <patdk-l2> heh?
[02:01] <patdk-l2> there is little difference
[02:01] <patdk-l2> xen uses qemu for hvm
[02:02] <patdk-l2> qemu will use kvm if available
[02:02] <patdk-l2> xen gives a different management interface over pure qemu
[02:20] <sarnold> harushimo: I'd prefer qemu/kvm myself, it feels easier to work with to me
[02:28] <harushimo> okay
[02:28] <harushimo> thank you
[03:54] <conner> Anyone available to help a guy figure out a CDROM installation problem?
[03:55] <conner> Been scratching my head for a while now, and just can't seem to get it figured out. Just trying to re-install the server.iso. Also have a few questions regarding my setup, in case there is an easier way to go about it.
[03:58] <patdk-l2> we wouldn't have any idea, we don't even know what your attempting to ask yet
[03:58] <patdk-l2> mainly cause you didn't
[03:58] <patdk-l2> !ask
[04:02] <conner> Oh sorry. So, I've been trying to either re-install or "reset" my server installation on a home computer. Currently 12.04 server is installed, and I have a DVD-R burned with the 14.10 x64 iso on it. I've managed to boot into the DVD and get the installation going, however, it fails to "detect and mount the CD-ROM". I've checked several logs and it just says in various places that the CDROM was unmounted "just to be safe".
[04:08] <conner> To continue my question beyond the DVD installation, since I have 12.04 already installed, is there a way to just do-release-upgrade to 14.10 and forget about the DVD? I've read you can do release updates, however my host/network files are all botched and I'd just like a fresh start.
[07:34] <arcsky> what do you guys recommend ansible or puppet or chef?
[09:19] <blueingress> Hi, How can I tail multiple logs from differnt servers to a console? Thanks.
[09:20] <jpds_> blueingress: Set up an rsyslog server and have them all log there.
[09:22] <blueingress> jpds_, thanks .. I will try
[10:06] <lordievader> Good afternoon.
[12:57] <jamespage> zul, I almost have horizon done and tested btw
[12:57] <zul> ok
[12:58] <zul> jamespage:  just rebuilding kilo-rc1 for trusty
[12:58] <zul> jamespage:  just have keystone and neutron* to rebuild
[15:41] <kyle__> Anyone here good with apt-cacher-ng?  Familiar with why it would have over 200k close-waits open?
[15:43] <OpenTokix> kyle__: because the fin timeout is very long
[15:43] <OpenTokix> kyle__: close wait, and not time wait?
[15:48] <kyle__> OpenTokix: Close wait
[15:48] <kyle__> OpenTokix: Humm.  Poking at the configs a little.  Apparently the default package has a lot of example remappings in there that don't need to be.  Dunno if it will solve problems, but taking them out makes the error log less chatty.
[15:50] <OpenTokix> kyle__: what is the error log? - ie. what is the error?
[15:50] <OpenTokix> kyle__: you havent changed any of yoru networking settings in sysctl?
[15:53] <kyle__> Lots of "Error creating pipe file descriptors", a complaint about the gentoo remapper (I commented out all but the ubuntu one I care about for now), and now that cleared out the cruft, too many open file handles.
[15:53] <kyle__> Argh.
[15:54] <kyle__> OpenTokix: network settings in sysctl have been rather modified, but nothing out of the ordinary.
[15:54] <OpenTokix> kyle__: increase file handles then?
[15:54] <OpenTokix> kyle__: modern computer can handle millions
[15:55] <OpenTokix> how many nodes are talking to your -ng-server?
[15:57] <kyle__> OpenTokix: Errr... 318
[15:57] <OpenTokix> kyle__: increase your fdlimit in /etc/security/limits.conf and restart apt-cacher-ng
[15:58] <OpenTokix> default it is 1000 =)
[16:06] <caribou> jamespage: any reason why you merged python-tz 2014 ? I don't see it in Debian
[16:10] <kyle__> Hrumm.  Not applying limits to the user it's udner... fscking pam.
[16:13] <OpenTokix> kyle__: ?
[16:18] <kyle__> OpenTokix: It's not loading the changes to limits.conf, and I can't reboot this system (prod)(
[16:19] <OpenTokix> kyle__: did you restart the apt-cacher-ng - it should give you a new shell- not restart, bt stop + start
[17:28] <kyle__> OpenTokix: I had to edit the init script for it
[19:52] <slowe> Quick Upstart question (this is on 14.04.1): is there a way to specify environment variables to be used by an Upstart job in a separate file from the Upstart job file itself?
[19:53] <sarnold> slowe: a .override file perhaps? http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#override-files
[19:54] <slowe> sarnold: Looks like override files are only for changing whether a job should start automatically or not (at least, that's how it appears to read).
[19:54] <slowe> sarnold: Never mind...need to scroll down farther. :-)
[19:54] <sarnold> slowe: that is how it appears to read but I suspect it can do more than just that -- I haven't confirmed for myself thoughc
[20:07] <OpenTokix> kyle__: is it working now?
[20:10] <kyle__> OpenTokix: Yeah.  I had to throw limit nofile somehugenumber somehugernumber in the beginning.
[20:11] <OpenTokix> kyle__: ok,  =)
[20:11] <OpenTokix> kyle__: Defaults is from when a server ad 8MB of ram =)
[20:11] <kyle__> OpenTokix: I need to dig through and see just how that works, because I've never seen it done that way before.
[20:12] <kyle__> All sorts of defaults in linux are back from the days when 64MB was pi in the sky big.
[20:14] <OpenTokix> kyle__: yes =)
[22:03] <dustinspringman> any postfix masters in the house?
