[02:09] anyone know why this happens? http://i.imgur.com/VWfIxQ2.png [02:10] Jack: leave off the / [02:10] Jack: / says to start the directory search from the filesystem root / [02:10] Jack: but the directory appears to be in /home/teamspeak/ [02:10] s/in/named/ [02:11] oh okay i have never had a problem before and it let me do it weird [02:11] Thank you [06:33] why would installing a CLI utility require installing x windows? [06:35] some programs can do different things via X but don't dynamically load the various libraries [06:36] sometimes it's just a package provides both commandline and graphical tools and therefore requires the graphics libraries to make sure the program works rather than dies. [06:41] this is frustrating, cause I'm trying to keep the ubuntu-server footprint really small to allow for me to pass on more resources to my VM's [06:45] make sure you've got a gigabyte or two of space for swap so unused memory can be shoved to disk === _KaszpiR__ is now known as _KaszpiR_ === Tsunami is now known as Guest12629 [07:03] what is the best method to create KVM-QEMU VM's with just CIL?

[10:34] I've got a PXE boot server with preseed configuration file in place... [10:35] is there a chance for automatic installator (throug d-i ) to dynamically alocate physical disks and partition them?. [10:35] I mean not to provide the actual names in the preseed.cfg file... [11:05] xok: is that something the whole Metal as a Service stuff deals with? (which isn't PXE) but is Ubuntu related. [11:06] It might be possible to use PXE to do something similar but I am not that big a user of it. The MaaS thing just popped into my head while I read what you were asking. [12:04] any body experienced with overlayfs here? [12:04] A little bit, but only for singularity-container use [12:05] I merged a readonly lowerdir with a rw upperdir and workdir [12:05] the strange thing is now, that only the root of the merged dir is writable [12:05] all subdirectories are not [12:05] even as root [12:06] not much clue there from me, sorry [12:06] other than possibly somthing about shared [12:10] ok :-) [12:14] ok, it looks like a bug with nfs as lowerdir [12:14] is there an alternative to overlayfs? === yokel_ is now known as yokel === jgrimm is now known as jgrimm-away === kickinz1 is now known as kickinz|afk [16:23] Good morning, is anyone actively using ISCSI boot targets with MAAS?

[16:38] med_: ok [16:39] med_: this is a support channel :) [16:39] that supports pink slips? [16:40] trees and dye [16:40] i guess? [16:45] erm, this is the #ubuntu-server channel. Not really a support channel as per se. It's a "community" channel and that community includes a lot of Canonical and ex-Canonical. [16:45] Ie, the title says "Discussion and support" for instance. [16:47] med_: right, i agree with you, sorry [16:48] med_: so not sure why you brought up something about canonical [17:14] I am using 16.04 (64)server: Trying to find out if there is a difference in how 16+(tried 04/10) handles webserver naming/ips as compared to 14(04/10). I loaded up 14.04 on my test server and have no issues with vhost displaying dns (16+ seems to only display public ip) but 16+ seems to only display the public ip. Any info, links, or pointers on the subject specific to only 16+? [17:16] skits: a few follow-on questions -- do you mean that if you run a process (say dig) on your 14.04 server, you get differnt results than the same server with 16.04? [17:16] skits: or is it specificaly only having some difference in behavior with vhosts? [17:18] Right now it seems to only really affect how it displays ip/dns in user browsers and its ability to trigger webapp functions(based on dns). Everything else functions just fine. Only vhost seems to be affected directly [17:18] skits: and which webserver are you using? [17:21] I tried both nginx and apache. I am more familiar bar far with apache but the basic setup on nginx to test is easy enough just to test results. [17:21] skits: ok, i'm not super familiar with vhosts ,let me do some self-education [17:22] Copy, thank you for your time nacc. [17:22] skits: so ... what do you see as the end user? can you clarify the bugginess you see? [17:22] skits: like a concrete example -- I navigate to http://whatever.com and it doesn't work, or it redirects and fails or somethinfg [17:23] I can only see public ip and iterations such as 00.00.00.00/this page or 00.00.00.00/this/page [17:23] skits: ah, you can't get to them by hostname at all? [17:23] http://67.205.132.87/solder/repo/ might be helpful [17:24] host name instantly deflects to ip (such as solder.storagedragon.com or storagedragon.com or repo.storagedragon.com) [17:24] skits: ah, and you expect it to stay as hostname? [17:26] Correct. If it does not then it weill not trigger certain web apps or differentiate between the subdomains [17:26] right, that makes sense [17:27] so i'm guessing this might be a change in behavior in apache2 (but not sure) -- you went from 2.4.7 to 2.4.18 (or so) [17:27] That very well could be. I am using apache2 atm but it was also present in nginx which is why I asked here(ubuntu) first. [17:28] sure [17:28] i mean, i'm not sure that it's an ubuntu thing (in that, afaict, the vhost stuff is all in the webserver(s)) [17:29] I was thinking so, was hoping it was an easy thing within ubuntu that would fix both at the same time. I will delve deper into the newer version apache/nginx then. Thank you sooo much for your time nacc! [17:30] skits: np, stick around here, there are often more experienced people than I :) [17:30] teward: --^ maybe you know or know where to look [17:31] I used to live in these channels but was on hi-aitus for a year. I just never had to ask questions much. lol [17:32] skits: not a problem, just need to think about it a bit, you should be able to find the apache changelogs online (i wouldn't necessarily use the debian/ubuntu package ones, but hte upstream ones) [17:32] skits: that it happens with nginx as well seems odd, but i'm not sure how that works [17:33] skits: i'm assuming the vhost configs have thigns like ServerName and ServerAlias set, etc? [17:33] Ya, thats why I actually had to ask. lmao. Was sure how to word my question for google to pull out relevant results. lmao [17:34] skits: and i wonder if the apache logs say anything? [17:35] Nothing relevant to this. Just errors for other stuff since events won't trigger properly without correct name. lol [17:35] skits: ok [17:35] Might even be how my registrar is forwarding dns! brb. Gonna check cname/a records and see. [17:36] skits: yeah, that could be [17:52] grrr, I am so sorry for wasting time. It was an issue with godaddy (Never normally use their nameservers, just their domain names). the rest shoudl be an easy fix. thank you! [17:52] Uhg, I cant wait till my names expire and I can take them elsewhere. lol === poster is now known as Poster [18:05] skits: np! glad you were able to resolve it === catalase is now known as catalase- === catalase- is now known as catalase [19:22] we just spent 30k on support [19:22] they better NOT be laying off people [19:22] at least their ISCSI guy!!! [19:31] bildz: ? [19:41] nacc: hey [19:43] bildz: hiya! just seeing if there was any server stuff you needed; or just general commentary there :) [19:49] nacc: i actually do need some server asstance around IBFT and how horribly UNDOCUMENTED it is and apparent lack of debian support [19:50] heh [19:50] bildz: what kind of environment? what OS? [19:50] so I have redhat installed and will be scouring through dmesg [19:51] nacc: 16.04 LTS, pure storage, and MAAS :D [19:51] bildz: ok, so 16.04 guest with iscsi root? [19:51] correct [19:52] 24 Cisco B series M4's [19:52] bildz: and what is happening in the guest? no root detected? [19:52] going to be standing up MAAS + juju [19:52] nacc: correct [19:52] bildz: does it have network? [19:52] bildz: when it fails to find root, that is [19:52] does it drop you to a shell? [19:52] we haven't been able to find any iscsi targets [19:52] even with a fully installed operating system [19:53] Do the M4's support IBFT? [19:53] yes [19:53] http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/sw/gui/config/guide/2-2/b_UCSM_GUI_Configuration_Guide_2_2/b_UCSM_GUI_Configuration_Guide_2_2_chapter_011111.pdf [19:53] bildz: oh so even within a non-iscsi root guest, you can't see iscsi disks? what command did you try? [19:54] iscsistart -b [19:54] iscsi -n "should pull the IQN from the hardware" [19:55] iscsistart -n [19:55] i don't see an iscsistart -n option in 17.04, let me spin up a 16.04 [19:55] bildz: if you use iscsiadm and run discovery, does it work? [19:56] tried iscsiadm, but can do it again if you have some guidelines [19:56] bildz: does iscsistart -b report any errors? or just nothing? [19:56] bildz: something like [19:56] iscsiadm -m discovery -p ip:port [19:56] where ip and port are the iscsi portal [19:58] one sec we'll check [19:58] making some notes of what RHEL is seeing right now so we can attempt to port [19:59] sure [20:00] i don't have a ton of experience with iscsi root (yet) but i wrote the new support in curtin for iscsi non-root disks [20:00] so i have been playing with iscsiadm and tgt quite a bit [20:00] oh nice! [20:00] well I will be happy to keep you in the loop with our progress [20:00] im documenting for a blog [20:01] bildz: that'd be great, as i'd like to make this all a bit easier (i also found it quite painful) [20:01] i couldn't agree more [20:01] i love hardware, said nobody ever [20:01] :) [20:03] 2.0-8734 is the version of iscsiadm on 16.04 [20:03] RHEL is at 6.8 [20:04] ubuntu cannot read the firmware off the hardware [20:04] ah [20:04] so a driver issue? [20:05] i'm not sure at what level the ibft support is supposed to be implemented, tbh [20:05] i know [20:05] im working if I can just build a new ramdisk with a more current version [20:05] wondering* [20:06] bildz: which 16.04 kernel are you using? 16.04.1 (4.4) or 16.04.2 (4.8)? [20:07] 4.8 hwe - edge [20:07] bildz: ok [20:07] bildz: do you get an error in dmesg indicating it can't read the ibft data? [20:08] checking [20:09] doesn't look like any dmesg errors [20:13] bildz: anything in /sys/firmware/ibft ? [20:22] we're building IBFT now [20:27] bildz: ok [20:27] bildz: my understanding is the kernel puts the ibft data it finds in /sys/firmware/ibft [20:27] and i *think* that might exist regardless of the ibft driver, but i'm not sure [20:31] ill be around though, nacc [20:31] thanks for your help! [20:59] bildz: np, and ping me anytime for iscsi help [22:45] Odd_Bloke: where did we end up landing with LP: #1569237 ?

[22:47] I have a ubunut server install runing web services, would to be too much to add vpn and kvm hosting? [23:31] I have an ubuntu server running lvm using lvm snapshots a good backup method? [23:31] it may be useful but it's not backups [23:32] or do you mean that you would use that computer as a backup target from other computers? [23:33] I'm running owncloud / alfresco at the moment had I use rsync to backup those directs up along with mysql dumps [23:33] I was looking to add kvm to the server and need to resized some lv and I can across lv snapshots...
