Epx998i think i finally beat this thing into submission00:11
cpaelzergood morning06:48
rbasako/06:48
JenshaeGreetings and salutations, denizens and ladies.11:42
Jenshaejoelio: I have set up the machine with the SSD to boot it and using " sudo zfs mountpoint=/home/user pool/user " I have linked it onto the SSD. How do I now confirm how much available space is in that folder? Disk Analyser for example only shows what is used but not what is left as free space.11:44
gunixanybody used juju charms to deploy openstack?13:11
jamespagegunix: yes13:48
jamespagegunix: #openstack-charms is a good place to go ask questions on that topic, but here is ok as well13:48
jamespagecoreycb: I've been working on deps again today - mostly done - just working on the stestr/ostestr bits and pieces to allow the neutron/ovsdbapp uploads13:49
jamespagecoreycb: zunclient builds now - can you upload a backport-less version to the PPA please13:49
coreycbjamespage: great, yep will do13:49
coreycbjamespage: i recently added py2 support for python-daiquiri (it's py3 only in debian) but I think I can drop that in favor of moving gnocchi to py3 only.13:52
jamespagecoreycb: agreed13:52
coreycbjamespage: i also need to fix dep8 tests for daiquiri so i'll work on that in the ci-train ppa. i'll look a gnocchi today too.13:53
joelioJenshae: with ZFS it's (kinda) sparsely allocated so you can add more mounts from the pool.. what does df say?13:56
jamespagecoreycb: I'm going to start working on some of the core projects now13:57
jamespagewill use the ss to track13:57
jamespagecoreycb: gnocchi might be a good place to start I guess13:57
coreycbjamespage: great, will do the same!13:58
=== Isla_de_Muerte is now known as NwS
jamespagecoreycb: we're working on the same thing here14:19
coreycbjamespage: are you doing gnocchi?14:19
jamespageyes14:19
jamespage4.1.014:19
coreycbjamespage: ok go for it14:19
jamespagecoreycb: ta14:19
jamespagesorry about that - did not make it super clear that I was going to start on gnocchi14:20
coreycbjamespage: np, i had a start on it but wasn't working so i'll diff vs what you end up with and learn something14:22
joelioJenshae: zpool list14:23
jamespagecoreycb: synced https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-tenacity/4.4.0-2 btw - no good reason to keep our diff14:31
coreycbjamespage: yep works for me14:32
coreycbjamespage: will that require breaks/replaces to replace python-gnocchi with python3-gnocchi?14:48
jamespagecoreycb: no - the pathing is different14:49
coreycbjamespage: ok. shall we move all core projects to py3 only where possible for this milestone?14:51
cpaelzerdosaboy: jamespage: on bug 1466926 I have a ppa and some expertements, but I fail to reproduce so I'm unsure if it is a fix15:03
ubottubug 1466926 in apache2 (Ubuntu Xenial) "reload apache2 with mpm_event cause scoreboard is full" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/146692615:03
cpaelzerdosaboy: jamespage: since you meant you had some context in this issue, if you know how to trigger it please help to get some steps to reproduce that work15:03
Ussatso, played with netplan a lot lastnight....I can live with it15:08
drabit's not gonna be pushed down to LTS, is it?15:16
drabI mean xenial15:17
sdezieldrab: netplan is available for Xenial (in universe though)15:21
Ussatits actually very useable once ya get used to it15:23
drabI'm sure, I just can't imagine to learn something new and update all the instances we have16:07
drabI just have enoguh work for the next 2 yrs16:07
rbasakIt's office hours in #ubuntu-server. Highlight rbasak for attention. See https://community.ubuntu.com/t/irc-meeting-office-hours/1491 for details.16:09
slashdrbasak, dpb1 I have one thing since there is no agenda anymore....16:10
rbasakSure  :)16:10
slashdWe are working on a MIR for pcp (LP: #1700827).... we got an ACK from security and few comment by MIR approval team... we need to find a owner for pcp/papi bug16:11
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1700827 in pcp (Ubuntu) "[MIR] pcp package" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/170082716:11
slashdcould server team look if they can own them ?16:11
rbasakThat's really a question for the Canonical server team, rather than us wearing an Ubuntu hat.16:12
slashdrbasak, sure make total sense16:12
rbasakAnd for that, it's down to dpb1, who is travelling at hte moment.16:12
slashdrbasak, I'll ping dpb later then thanks16:12
ahasenackwhat's missing, sponsorship?16:12
rbasakI assumed he needs a team subscription16:13
ahasenackah, finding an actual owner16:13
ahasenackbefore sponsoring16:13
ahasenackI see16:13
slashdrbasak, yep team subscription16:13
rbasakAnd this usually comes down to: is dpb1 willing to commit Canonical resources to maintaining the package in main.16:13
slashdrbasak, ack I'll contact him16:13
slashdrbasak, thanks16:13
rbasakYou're welcome :)16:14
cpaelzerslashd: last time I tested that things it broke on about every place possible - so make sure I'm not asked if we want to own16:21
cpaelzerslashd: was the new dependency I pointed out in th gdoc sorted out - I didn't see an update but must admit I didn't check explicitly16:21
slashdcpaelzer: dgadomski tested it and he couldn't reproduce what you are experimenting16:24
slashddgadomski, you reviewed the pcp gdoc right ? and couldn't reproduce what cpaelzer had experimented ?16:25
dgadomskislashd: I tried to crash any binary I could find in the package, was there a particular scenario to test in the gdoc?16:26
slashddgadomski, I don't think there was an exact reproducer AFAIK16:27
dgadomskiso I did my best when I was working on the autopkgtests16:27
dgadomskiwithout any segfaults16:27
slashdand cpaelzer the code that has been ACK by security is the newest upstream one, not what is found in ubuntu atm16:27
slashdafter they made serious improvement16:28
cpaelzermaybe the new version is better16:28
cpaelzerI'll take a look if I find some time16:28
cpaelzerslashd: and about the dependency?16:29
slashdcpaelzer, the papi dep is under review by MIR approval team atm and security team16:29
cpaelzerslashd: ok, and no depeer follow on dependencies there?16:30
slashddgadomski, ^16:30
dgadomskino, I don't think there are any non-main dependencies involved16:31
slashdcpaelzer, so papi is waiting on security team ACK for now, and pcp I'm working on a few stuff asked by MIR team (switch dpkg-source from 3.0 (native) to 3.0 (quilt), ...16:35
slashdthanks dgadomski16:36
dgadomskithanks16:36
slashdcpaelzer, let us know if you need anything from us16:37
xnoxcpaelzer, somehow i was under the impression that we do have /dev/kvm inside our e.g. Openstack Virtual machines.16:56
xnoxcause e.g. we do launch nested kvm, as part of systemd autopkgtest16:56
xnoxsmb, is ubuntu kernel patched to somehow speciality default to nested_kvm=1?16:57
smbxnox, it does not change defaults, so intel no, amd yes. but that was changed by kvm-qemu install16:58
smbsomething to add modules parm into /etc/modprobe.d iirc16:59
smbxnox, on xenial.x86: cat /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf17:00
smboptions kvm_intel nested=117:00
xnoxcpaelzer, are you planning to keep that? ^17:01
xnoxcpaelzer, smb - i wonder if we need to sru qemu to specify nested=1 option on s390x too, exted qemu-system-init to load module on s390x; and then sru kernel that makes kvm a module, rather than a built in.17:02
xnoxcpaelzer, smb - or can we somehow change the built-in module option as a kernel config change? (if that at all makes sense, no idea if built-in module options are tweakable)17:02
smbxnox, that option might be an early one, which would require it on kernel cmdline. generally option values can be changed via sysfs but if its something done at init time there would be no effect17:04
xnoxsmb, code patch ? =)17:04
xnox#ifdef __s390x__17:04
xnoxint nested=1;17:05
xnox#else17:05
xnoxint nested=0;17:05
xnox#endif17:05
xnoxlolz17:05

azertyhi there19:35
azertyis it possible to animate the color of shell ?19:36
=== itaorna is now known as hggdh
dpb1if he were here, I would tell him, kind of20:02
sarnolddpb1: well now I'm kinda curious :)20:05
sarnoldI've seen those PS1 tricks .. but that's not really what I'd call _animated_20:05
dpb1heheh20:08
dpb1I think those are the closest I got!20:09
sarnoldI mean people are doing crazy things with terminals these days https://github.com/p-e-w/ternimal but .. that's not really the shell that's animated there, hehe20:09
dpb1sarnold: I like the fallout themed one, like an old CRT.20:10
dpb1"cool-retro-term"  great package name20:12
drabis there a known nice ubuntu based rescue iso that ppl use?20:28
drabsomething that will ship with dd_rescue, some data recovery stuff,and general debugging tools20:28
drabsystemrescuecd seems to not be working very well anymore20:29
drabhttps://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ubunturescue20:36
drabbut apparently it's now discontinued20:36
geniiNot ubuntu based, but UBCD is very useful20:37
genii!ubcd20:37
geniiHm20:37
geniidrab: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/20:37
drabsadly enough here people need GUIs and to an extent that's fair beacuse sometimes we need to debug audio or video peripherals on desktop machines and need GUI for real20:42
drabI might just have to use an ubuntu livecd and have a script that pulls in the tools I need20:42
drabto bite the bullet and figure how to customize an iso20:42
drabI tried a few times and always ended up being a painful experience20:43
geniiI think remastersys might still be a thing for that20:46
geniiAlternately, just install to a USB stick, boot to that and install things, make copies20:47
draboh, that's not a bad idea. I wanna pxeboot tho. I'm wondering if I then dd the key to a file if I can boot that20:48
geniiIf you go that way, might want to make modifications so GRUB only looks for the local hdd it booted from, and revert to old eth0 wlan0 interface naming scheme20:50
drabgood points20:51
geniiSo if you use some scripts the naming can be the same on any machine, plus GRUB won't make entries for a computer that's it's not currently plugged into20:51
drabmaybe I'll give it a go if I get a minute one of thse days, not super urgent20:51
drabfot now I'll just give ppl a live ubuntu desktop20:51
drabit'll keep them busy for a while :)20:52
drabpxe booting liveCD is really neat, wish I knew that years ago20:52
drabactually tbf I found you can pxe boot squash files20:52
drabcuztomizing that should be simple as well20:53
drabin a chroot, but maybe not20:53
geniiAnd with dnsmasq pxe is way easier than the old days of setting up isc-dhcp-server20:56
drabthe only thing I wish dnsmasq had is a db backend so that I could script it more easily, especially from the inventory system and tied into new device registration21:18
drabsimilar to dns with pdns21:18
drab(if one wanted to use that for dns instead of dnsmasq, which can be useful)21:18
DammitJimman, I am so confused22:05
DammitJimI think I need to add more RAM to my ubuntu servers, but it's hard to tell22:05
DammitJimI"m using free -m and it's showing I'm basically using all my RAM22:06
DammitJimhowever, if I run: cat /proc/meminfo, it shows like more than half of the RAM as Inactive22:06
DammitJimwhat does that mean?22:06
TJ-DammitJim: 'free' RAM is used for caches and buffers22:08
TJ-!ram | DammitJim22:08
ubottuDammitJim: If you are wondering why some tools report your system has very little free memory, have a look at http://www.linuxatemyram.com/22:08
DammitJimso, I am OK by just looking at "used memory" and subtracting that from the total memory22:10
DammitJimthat gives me a good number for utilization, right?22:10
DammitJimversus looking at "free" memory22:10
sarnolddammitjim has a knack of leaving just before I get here22:44
drabdidn't freenode allow you to record a msg for registered users?23:49
sarnoldyeah, it probably still does, but it's hard to spot when logging in23:50
drabfair enough23:50
sarnolddrab: the last time I used it, the guy replied to me weeks later, it took a while to find it, hehe23:51
* drab just typoed one of his favorites23:56
drabI realize it's lame, but, while telling, it lifts up my humor every time it happens: sudo shitdown -h now23:57
sarnoldheheh23:57
