andrew-ii_Does the maas controller only proxy apt and ubuntu images? Or, does it need to be reconfigured to allow nodes access to the internet?03:00
andrew-ii_I'm not sure, but I'd guess that it would have to do with the rules in the maas squid configuration? The file says not to directly modify it, so ... is there another way?03:10
andrew-ii_Or is it only reasonable to dedicate one NIC on each node to the public network and (at least) one to the internal maas network?03:24
pmatulisandrew-ii_, maas has a general HTTP proxy that nodes can partake in03:39
andrew-ii_Is it configured by default?03:39
pmatulisyes03:39
andrew-ii_Huh. That's both exactly what I wanted to hear and really disheartening03:40
pmatulisandrew-ii_, what do you mean?03:40
andrew-ii_Basically, a deployed node can resolve DNS fine, but it never seems to connect to outside sources03:41
andrew-ii_As in, a wget will properly be sent, but fails to ever retrieve03:41
pmatuliscan the maas server contact outside sources?03:41
andrew-ii_Yes03:41
pmatulisis the maas server also set as the default gateway (for the nodes)?03:42
andrew-ii_Yes? It is for every subnet03:42
pmatulisis the maas server able to route node traffic to the internet?03:42
andrew-ii_I feel like this is where I'm dropping the ball on the configuation: the maas controller does not seem to route traffic to the internet03:43
pmatulisso you probably need to set up masquerading on the maas server03:43
andrew-ii_Ah, so that really is the solution. I had seen reference to it, but I hadn't really understood if that was a workaround or a special case03:44
andrew-ii_Do you have a reference implementation off the top of your head?03:44
andrew-ii_I'm afraid I am not familiar with proper iptables configuration details yet, but I'll learn if that gets the nodes online03:45
pmatulisi don't have anything specific on hand03:46
andrew-ii_(I'm currently at the "chinese room" stage of network configuration understanding03:46
andrew-ii_No worries. That basically sets me on a course03:47
pmatulisbut you should prolly capture packets on the maas server when a node tries to access an internet resource03:47
pmatulisto see what's going on03:47
andrew-ii_Yep. That would probably be a very sensible thing to do03:48
pmatulisconfirm that the requests are at least hitting the maas server but not going out the other interface03:48
andrew-ii_Really wish that occurred to me sooner :P03:48
andrew-ii_Do I need to do anything to the nodes? Like set an http_proxy environment variable?03:49
andrew-ii_Or should the maas controller take the request and route it transparently?03:49
pmatulisthat should already be set03:49
andrew-ii_Cool03:49
pmatulisalso, confirm that the maas proxy config file has an ACL for your particular subnet. it is supposed to include one automatically but i have seen it happen that this is broken03:49
andrew-ii_Last I checked it did, but I'm double checking now03:50
pmatulis/var/lib/maas/maas-proxy.conf03:50
pmatulisyou can also set a custom/upstream proxy03:51
pmatulisread here: https://docs.ubuntu.com/maas/2.1/en/installconfig-proxy03:51
andrew-ii_Nothing upstream yet, and the proxy has the acl localnet src 10.x.x.x subnets03:52
pmatulisand this is the maas-proxy log, to see HIT/MISS or DENIED: /var/log/maas/proxy/access.log03:54
andrew-ii_Alrighty, releasing, redeploying, and checking this out fresh03:55
andrew-ii_Is there any reason to put the maas proxy in the proxy field? That would be redundant, right?03:58
pmatulisright, redundant03:58
andrew-ii_Like if my controller was 10.0.0.1, putting http://10.0.0.1:3128 in the field is silly03:59
pmatulisright03:59
andrew-ii_ok, that's a whole set of things I need not try again03:59
andrew-ii_Oh, and thanks a mil - just getting confirmation of proper/expected behavior is huge! It will save me huge amounts of second guessing04:01
pmatulisi guess the docs are not clear then. please open a bug if you have suggestions on how to improve them: https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/maas-docs/issues/new04:02
andrew-ii_My money is that it's just a hidden learning curve for newbs04:03
andrew-ii_I know just enough to sorta make sense of it, but not enough to be wise to the actual cause of the trouble04:04
pmatulisalright, i need to retire. do leave a msg on how you make out and i'll see it tomorrow04:08
andrew-ii_I appreciate the help immensely; Sleep well!04:08
andrew-ii_pmatulis: Turns out your first note was spot on: I needed to properly set up the iptables masquerade. I followed the setup at the end of http://askubuntu.com/a/594723 - I think my settings were just out of place *and* I missed the net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 setting. Way back I had a configuration that *did* have it set, but then the masquerade was wrong.05:06
andrew-ii_The answer links to a tutorial at http://wiki.cloudbase.it/maas that notes the settings that set the NAT from the private network to the public.05:09

jlec__Hi roaksoax Do you have time for a short query?08:22
brendandjlec__, roaksoax isn't around at this time, what's your query?09:20
jlec__brendand: lou peers referenced me to roaksoax regarding some questions I have around Maas.10:56
brendandjlec__, you can ask them here and he'll see them, or maybe someone else can help10:57
jlec__I am looking for documentation for creating custom images.10:57
jlec__Secondly the CentOS 7 images from Canonical do not work for me. Maas will not assign IP adresses to the nodes10:57
brendandjlec__, are you using MAAS 2.x?11:14
jlec__brendand: yes, latest on the LTS11:14
zeestratHey, is there a recommended boot device order for nodes managed by MAAS? |PXE,Disk|, |Disk,PXE| or just |PXE|?12:49
MrLeauI believe pxe as to be first but for the rest I'm don't know13:02
brendandzeestrat, always pxe first. i believe it *should* work with just pxe, but not positive13:33
vogelchas anyone had success deploying centos with LVM?  All my nodes are deployed with flat storage.14:43
roaksoaxjlec: maas doesn't configure networking manuallyt for centos. we only assign a DHCP address for the PXE interface in CentOS15:31
roaksoaxzeestrat: if your machine supports being told to PXE every time MAAS power manages it, it doens't matter15:32
roaksoaxzeestrat: maas will tell the machine to PXE every time when you do an action, but if that is not supporte din the BMC, then you will need to make sure to set the boot order15:33
vogelcTrying to install a custom storage layout with LVM.  all the partitions are created but curtin fails because it tries to install grub on /dev/dm-0.  Is there a way to direct curtin not to try /dev/dm-0?16:24

thiagolibHi, I'm having the following problem with maas-region-controller on ubuntu 16.04 when trying to reinstall the package I'm getting the errors below.17:04
thiagolibhttps://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23875672/17:04
thiagolibI believe it is because it verifies that there is already a database and an admin user.17:04
stokachuthiagolib, ah i see you're here17:07
thiagolibstokachu: I came in a few minutes ago.17:12
stokachuthiagolib, cool, these be the people that can help with your problem17:12

g3Hello there21:57
g3When using device discovery, can one add that as a machine?21:57
g3Hmmm so I went to commision four new servers22:18
g3and in MAAS they are showing up with no drives22:18
g3But in the full output of 00-maas-07-block-devices.out from the commissioning script22:19
g3it found all 15 drives22:19
g3buut it found them on the second try at commisioning?22:26
g3andrew-ii where you at!22:31
andrew-iiHi!23:17
andrew-iig3 - I dunno about it23:18
andrew-iiI would actually be curious to know if the system can use any previous knowledge when commissioning a second time23:18
andrew-iiIf so, that may explain why it figured out your drive array the second time (but I wouldn't know :( )23:19
