| cpaelzer | just stumbled over https://github.com/virt-manager/virt-manager/commits/cloudinit | 06:37 |
|---|---|---|
| cpaelzer | is that known or something you want to help with? | 06:37 |
| tribaal | blackboxsw: for the record: I built and booted an Eoan template with 19.2-13-g2f3bb764-0ubuntu1 on our preproduction environment, and all seems well :) | 10:34 |
| Odd_Bloke | tribaal: \o/ | 13:33 |
| Odd_Bloke | cpaelzer__: I'm not aware of it, but it looks cool! What help could we offer? | 13:36 |
| Odd_Bloke | (If you know!) | 13:36 |
| tribaal | I guess we're ready to have Eoan available on day one :P | 13:45 |
| === cpaelzer__ is now known as cpaelzer | ||
| cpaelzer | Odd_Bloke: I don't know what they work on or woudl need right now | 14:33 |
| cpaelzer | I just have seen the branch while cloning virt-manager for a fix | 14:33 |
| cpaelzer | and wondered if that is part of a community activity that you'd know of | 14:33 |
| cpaelzer | interesting ... | 14:33 |
| cpaelzer | waiting if rharper doesn't know it either ... | 14:34 |
| rharper | it's new to me as well; looks like virt-install adding support for installing their cloud images by prepping some in-image cloud-init ; | 14:40 |
| blackboxsw | Odd_Bloke: rharper Steve's suggestion to use debconf-loadtemplate adds a dependency on debconf-utils that cloud-init doesn't currently have. That adds about 57K of packages if we made this strict package dependency. Would we want to avoid adding this package unless someone specified ubuntu-drivers cloud-config? | 16:58 |
| rharper | blackboxsw: let's check in #ubuntu-devel with vorlon for alternatives/thoughts | 16:58 |
| blackboxsw | sounds good | 16:59 |
| mator | hello | 17:10 |
| mator | how do i install a cloud-init server, not instance? for example, i have kvm server for vm deployment and want to use cloud init for cloud images VMs | 17:10 |
| mator | besides of .iso images with cloud file metadata settings, is there network way to init vm ? | 17:12 |
| rharper | mator: hi, I'm not sure that I understand your questions; but it sounds like you'd be interested in Ubuntu cloud-images[1], which are Ubuntu server images with cloud-init already installed. And if you aren't running these images on a cloud, you'll want to learn to use cloud-init's NoCloud datasource[2], which allows cloud-init to find configuration on secondary devices (like a cdrom); 1. http://cloud-images.ubuntu.c | 17:36 |
| rharper | om/daily/server/bionic/current/ 2. https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources/nocloud.html | 17:36 |
| Odd_Bloke | rharper: blackboxsw: https://write.wrestle.town/oddbloke/dracut-findings-for-cloud-init <-- your thoughts would be appreciated | 18:59 |
| blackboxsw | Odd_Bloke: if we were to go down the route of extending dracut to emit a more friendly/standardized network configuration instead of cloud-init growing the ability to parse dracut's config, what is the possibility that we have issues upstreaming dracut fixes for cloud-init if needed? If we have issues with dracut upstream, I'm not certain what *we* would do to host our own official yum repo, other than our dev | 19:58 |
| blackboxsw | copr repos | 19:58 |
| blackboxsw | with the option of cloud-init proper growing dracut-parsing logic, we control the publishing of that feature, so if we have bugs, we can be certain that we fix them quickly and fast-track public releases of cloud-init that can cope | 19:59 |
| Odd_Bloke | blackboxsw: We won't be able to push any dracut changes back into the releases that people actually care about, I don't think. | 20:02 |
| Odd_Bloke | Getting dracut to emit v2 network YAML would be very nice, but we'd only be able to glean the benefits in several years, really. | 20:04 |
| Odd_Bloke | So we need something to bridge that gap. | 20:04 |
| blackboxsw | ohh /me misread "2. implement parsing in the dracut initramfs code" as implementing it in dracut package. | 20:07 |
| Odd_Bloke | Ah, yes, that's confusing wording. | 20:07 |
| Odd_Bloke | Let me fix that up. | 20:07 |
| Odd_Bloke | blackboxsw: Is that clearer? | 20:08 |
| blackboxsw | +1 Odd_Bloke | 20:09 |
| Odd_Bloke | Thanks for the catch! | 20:09 |
| blackboxsw | I'd agree with path 2. Odd_Bloke until we have more use cases | 20:10 |
| blackboxsw | s/catch/getting confused myself/ | 20:10 |
| Odd_Bloke | :) | 20:10 |
| blackboxsw | Odd_Bloke: rharper for tomorrow: just put up ubuntu-drivers v2 https://code.launchpad.net/~chad.smith/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+merge/371546 | 22:49 |
| rharper | blackboxsw: cool | 23:02 |
