[02:23] <geigerCounter> Hello. How do I upgarde 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS
[02:26] <sarnold> geigerCounter: do-release-upgrade
[02:26] <geigerCounter> sarnold: Command not found.
[02:27] <sarnold> geigerCounter: hrm, that's funny. it's in ubuntu-release-upgrader-core
[02:28] <geigerCounter> Huh.
[02:28] <geigerCounter> I didn't have that installed.
[02:29] <geigerCounter> Also, how can I back up my logs, content, and configs easily to another location?
[02:30] <sarnold> there's no easy way to do that. rsync -avz is my favourite way, and if you start with /var/log/ /home/ and /etc/ you'll have a decent start; but it's so easy to have important configs scribbled everywhere
[02:31] <geigerCounter> Mmm.
[02:31] <geigerCounter> What is rsync?
[02:31] <sarnold> rsync is a binary-differencing kind of tool that can drastically reduce bandwidth when trying to keep a directory tree synchronized between two machines over time
[02:32] <geigerCounter> Hmmm
[02:32] <sarnold> scp -r would re-transmit files even if the other side already has them
[02:32] <sarnold> rsync can transmit just the changes
[02:32] <geigerCounter> Mhm
[02:36] <geigerCounter> That said, I can't really afford to keep anything locally. Don't have the storage media for it.
[02:36] <geigerCounter> I dunno, unless I keep it on one of my external harddrives.
[02:36] <geigerCounter> That could work.
[02:38] <geigerCounter> Hmm. I shouldn't need to touch my keymaps, should I, sarnold?
[02:39] <sarnold> geigerCounter: I'm not sure, I've always been content with the us 104 key or whatever that is selected at install
[02:40] <geigerCounter> Hmm.
[02:40] <geigerCounter> Yeah.
[02:41] <geigerCounter> Sorry about being a bit noobish, but this is my first time ever doing this process for an ubuntu server.
[02:42] <geigerCounter> Should I leave the line blank for "Interfaces on which the DHCPv6 client sends requests:" ?
[02:45] <sarnold> geigerCounter: probably; if you're asking the question anyway then it's likely it's not really important. yet. ipv6 will get more important in the future, and how you get your ipv6 config will matter more and more .. but right now most people don't have it and don't need it
[02:45] <geigerCounter> Well alright then.
[02:46] <sarnold> funny enough I just started a do-release-upgrade on a 12.04 TLS machine about an hour or two ago.. I haven't done this in ages.
[02:46] <sarnold> "TLS". It must be about dinner time :)
[03:23] <geigerCounter> sarnold: Do I need to have a weekly run of fstrim?
[04:44] <dpb1> if you have an SSD, you should.
[04:51] <geigerCounter> dpb1: Oh hmm... I'll have to slap that script back in to the cron.weekly
[05:41] <cpaelzer> jamespage: I hope you don't mind but I added OVS 2.8 to the release note as I needed to refer to it from dpdk
[05:42] <cpaelzer> jamespage: but if you want to add more to it there please feel free
[06:24] <lordievader> Good morning
[08:15] <dpawlik> coreycb: Hello
[08:16] <dpawlik> Please let me know when you are on irc :)
[08:22] <dpawlik> Is someone else from cloud archive team?
[09:09] <Oskars_> Shouldn't I get into my home directory when I FTPS in with my user?
[09:23] <lordievader> Depends on the configuration.
[11:57] <dpawlik> coreycb: hi
[12:44] <coreycb> dpawlik: hi, did you have a question?
[12:44] <dpawlik> coreycb: Hello, yes I have small question for you :)
[12:44] <coreycb> dpawlik: ask away :)
[12:44] <dpawlik> coreycb: let me copy few URLs for you
[12:45] <dpawlik> coreycb: Is possible to generate new packages in Cloud archive for Pike and Ocata for oslo.middleware with patch https://review.openstack.org/#/q/Ic8b7f9698d7b3440005b17d249b1c8f0f66dae8a ?
[12:46] <dpawlik> coreycb: one URL is enough :) I was thinking that more ulrs will be pasted :)
[12:46] <coreycb> dpawlik: yes that shouldn't be a problem
[12:47] <coreycb> dpawlik: i'll work on it in a few
[12:49] <dpawlik> coreycb: thanks a lot
[12:59] <coreycb> jamespage: beisner: can you promote these newton SRU packages to newton-proposed please for bug 1718033?
[13:56] <coreycb> jamespage: beisner: can you also promote python-oslo.middleware to pike-proposed please?
[13:57] <coreycb> dpawlik: ^ i've also updated the bug for SRU purposes. if you can help with any testing that would be great.
[13:58] <dpawlik> coreycb: sure
[13:59] <dpawlik> coreycb:  I try to install the package on Ocata infra (I don't have yet Pike but maybe the package will work :P )
[13:59] <coreycb> dpawlik: ok it'll have to land in artful/pike first before the sru team will accept the zesty/ocata upload
[14:03] <dpawlik> ack
[15:48] <danpawlik_> @coreycb i forget to logout on irc. I must go home earlier so if it is not a problem i will check package today or on monday. Ok?
[17:35] <M3mphiZ> is it possible to tell 'logrotate' to put all the *.gz files into a subdirectory like /var/log/gz ?
[17:55] <oerheks> M3mphiZ, maybe 'postrotate' is what you want, to mv those .gz into /var/log/gz ? >> https://support.rackspace.com/how-to/understanding-logrotate-utility/
[17:56] <M3mphiZ> oerheks: is logrotate not gonna complain that those files are not there anymore? or are those files left alone anyway once they are compressed?
[17:56] <oerheks> M3mphiZ, yes, there is no hook to them, AFAIK.. correct me if i am wrong, guys
[17:57] <oerheks> active is .log, 1st backup is uncompressed .log.1 ...
[17:59] <sdeziel> M3mphiZ: logrotate won't complain if log.2.gz isn't there. After all, on a fresh machine it's never there
[18:00] <M3mphiZ> how does it keep track of the x.gz number? not by checking all existing gz's but an internal counter of some sort? i mean if i move blah.1.gz out of the way, will it not create it next time instead of using blah.2.gz?
[18:01] <sdeziel> M3mphiZ: yes, it will use the next "free slot"
[18:02] <M3mphiZ> hmm.. well then i wont be able to simply move the gzs away the second time i try..
[18:02] <M3mphiZ> as their names will conflict..
[18:03] <sdeziel> M3mphiZ: it's not directly what you asked for but I have a logrotate snippet that takes my aggregated logs and archive them per year/month while compressing them, might interest you
[18:03] <sdeziel> M3mphiZ: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25593805/
[18:03] <M3mphiZ> sdeziel: thats looks interesting, may i ask how long u been using the script?
[18:04] <sdeziel> M3mphiZ: and the associated rsyslog snippet: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25593822/
[18:05] <sdeziel> M3mphiZ: I've been using similar variations of that script since 2014/05
[18:05] <M3mphiZ> sdeziel: awesome thanks!, i gtg now but ill test it later, i might come back at you if thats ok?
[18:06] <sdeziel> M3mphiZ: sure thing
[21:22] <Epx998> Does the debian-installer support xfs for the / partition?
[21:23] <sarnold> "seems likely"
[21:23] <sarnold> xfs has been around forever anyway :)
[21:27] <pizzadelivery> hello
[21:27] <pizzadelivery> two xxxl pepperoni
[21:27] <pizzadelivery> who ordered it :)
[21:28] <sarnold> pizza!? for me?? I'm a lucky lucky little boy!
[21:28] <pizzadelivery> did not you made a NY promise to eat no pizza or was it other guy? :D
[21:28] <sarnold> definitely other guy
[21:29] <pizzadelivery> i guess since no one else is around its for you
[21:29] <pizzadelivery> :)
[21:30] <pizzadelivery> strange no one made pizza os
[21:30] <pizzadelivery> pizza linux distro
[21:31] <sarnold> slices, boxes, deliveries, toppings...
[21:31] <sarnold> you're right, the metaphors to work with
[21:33] <pizzadelivery> what did you made today?
[21:33] <pizzadelivery> for dinner
[21:33] <pizzadelivery> i made some stew
[21:33] <pizzadelivery> nearly ready
[22:02] <Epx998> yeah never used xfs but its going
[22:02] <Epx998> tho i got an error unpackaging the kernel, maybe /boot was too small
[22:02] <Epx998> recipes can be a bit tricky if you dont mess with them a lot
[22:52] <RoyK> Epx998: I use xfs for large filesystems whenever I don't use zfs
