| pacavaca_ | mpontillo: who is responsible for calling metadata api after node got deployed? I was able to add boot-local api action and UI button which boots node from local disk. Now the node comes up right, but the status never changes from Deploying to Deployed. So I'm wondering if I can fix this too with some small hack. | 02:07 |

| mpontillo | pacavaca_: I think curtin calls it when it's done with the installation, assuming everything proceeded with no errors. | 03:51 |
| mpontillo | pacavaca_: if not, it's probably cloud-init when it first runs on the deployed node. try removing /var/lib/cloud/* and seeing if it gets called | 03:51 |

| dannf | roaksoax_: i was going to try and MP some docs to talk about ip ranges in the main (non-changelog) part of the manual. one thing i don't understand though, is why would you choose dhcp vs. auto assign for an interface? | 14:59 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: the auto-assing, dhcp, static are properties of the interface, and not ranges | 15:18 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: auto-assign means, randomly select an IP address from the subnet (not from reserved, dynamic range), and configure e/n/i | 15:19 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: static means, user must provide an IP address, to be configured on e/n/i | 15:19 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: dhcp means, configure interface on e/n/i as 'dhcp' | 15:20 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: so that if the subnet in question is not managed by MAAS (external DHCP server), the NIC DHCP's from there | 15:20 |
| dannf | roaksoax_: well, they're tightly coupled. if i don't understand how/why i want to configure my interfaces a certain way, i don't know how to allocate my ip ranges | 15:20 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: that's the thing you can do it whicever way you want | 15:20 |
| === narinder is now known as naridner | ||
| roaksoax_ | dannf: auto-assign -> maas picks an IP for you on the subnet, and configures e/n/i | 15:21 |
| === naridner is now known as Narinder | ||
| roaksoax_ | dhcp -> you configure the interface as 'dhcp' on e/n/i | 15:21 |
| roaksoax_ | static -> user picks the IP that interface will have (always, regardless of the deployment) | 15:21 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: auto-assign is backwards compaibility from previous versions | 15:21 |
| dannf | roaksoax_: i know i can - but how do i make that decision? is it beneficial somehow to use auto assign, or is it functionally equivalent? | 15:22 |
| dannf | i was guessing that auto assign would let maas "know" what ip will be assigned, or maybe prevent it from being changed by a random dhcp server | 15:23 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: so there's two things, the way how we configure an interface, and the source of where the IP comes from | 15:23 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: in the past, we had two sources, dynamic range, and static range | 15:23 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: maas would only configure eth0 from the static range, everything else would be from the dynamic range (because maas didn't configure e/n/i) | 15:23 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: so 1.9/2.0 changed that | 15:24 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: specially 2.0 | 15:24 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: for example, if 1.x you had-> dynamic 10.10 - 10.100 and static 10.101 - 10.200 | 15:25 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: in 2.0 you will have: 2-9 (reserved), 201-254 (reserved), 10.10 - 10.100 (dynamic), 10.101 - 10.200 (free) | 15:26 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: so if you see, the "free" range used to be the "static" range | 15:26 |
| dannf | yep - with you there | 15:26 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: and we select an interface as "auto-assign" it will pick an IP address from the "free" range | 15:27 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: the "reserved" range is a way of telling maas, don't automatically use IP's from that range(S) because in the version you upgraded from, MAAS wasn't able to use those IP's and you may have something there (switch, routers) | 15:28 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: so it is a safety measure (this is on upgrade only) | 15:28 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: however, if you manually reserved a range, you may be telling MAAS - i dont want to auto-assign IP's from this reserved range, because they are reserved for my cloud instances managed by neutron | 15:28 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: and the dynamic rnage is the same as above | 15:28 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: that said, say you don't have the "dynamic" range on the subnet, and you also don't have dhcp enabled | 15:29 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: if you set the interface to "DHCP" on that subnet, we will only configure e/n/i to dhcp for the interface, but we wont provide any ip address because dhcp/dynamic range is not managed by MAAS | 15:30 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: so you may have an exnternal DHCP server | 15:30 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: but if you configure the interface with "auto-assign", then we will select any ip address from the "free" range and configure e/n/i | 15:30 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: does that help ? | 15:30 |
| dannf | roaksoax_: if i deploy a node w/ auto assign, is it creating a static e/n/i ? | 15:30 |
| roaksoax_ | dannf: yes | 15:30 |
| dannf | roaksoax_: ok. i think i understand. i'll write some docs up in an MP and let you be the judge by reviewing :) | 15:31 |

| f1gjam | ahasenack, any luck?? | 16:51 |
| nturner | smoser: yeah, thanks; I realized that after leaving work the other day (was offline yesterday); of course the curtin environment is not available to the cloud-init running on the deployed server | 17:05 |
| nturner | I also realized that the user-data URL has to be translated slightly as you note. | 17:06 |
| nturner | With those changes, I think my curtin-hooks does all the right stuff now. | 17:06 |
| nturner | The only remaining issue I'm aware of is that I need a newer cloud-init than CentOS has to pick up the reporting infrastructure you merged in from curtin. | 17:07 |
| nturner | And current cloud-init expects a newer python than CentOS 6 provides. | 17:07 |
| nturner | I was able to patch cloud-init to compile on python 2.6 again (changing some dict comprehensions to dict() with list comprehensions), but some of the other patches that have gone in recently to clean up how file IO is managed don't play well with older python libraries... | 17:10 |
| * nturner wonders if anyone is using MAAS with CentOS 6 images | 17:13 | |
| nturner | pacavaca_, mpontillo: from what I can tell, with newer versions of maas and cloud init, the cloud-init reporting framework handles informing maas of the transition to deployed | 17:19 |
| nturner | MAAS configures the reporting part of cloud-init via /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/90_dpkg_local_cloud_config.cfg on an ubuntu node | 17:19 |
| nturner | However, if you're using a newer MAAS with an older cloud-init, you may (as I did) see that this step never happens, because the maas reporting logic is not in older versions of cloud-init | 17:20 |
| nturner | Getting the newer cloud-init to run in an older environment may take some work (I've started attempting this). | 17:21 |
| nturner | If that turns out to be the right approach, we might want to coordinate our efforts... | 17:23 |

| Harold_ | Hello, I'm looking into trying to manage a large number of diskless systems using MAAS. Currently all the systems run using a copy-on-write ramdisk clone of a central NFS share. Is it possible to do this with MAAS? | 17:57 |
| pacavaca_ | nturner: Thank you. My cloud-init is whatever comes with 12.04, so it's probably quite old. Though it works on first deployment. But when I'm trying to re-run it for the second time it complains, saying something about oauth and clock. Anyways, I think it's not so important anymore. For my case I'll just set the state to DEPLOYED right after powering node on. It's wrong, but for my hack it's fine. | 18:17 |
