| PaulePanter | Hi. Any idea, why the latest Linux HWE kernel is not installed in my Ubuntu 16.04.7 VM? | 09:37 |

| lotuspsychje | !info linux-image-generic-HWE-16.04 xenial | 09:39 |
| ubottu | linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 (source: linux-meta-hwe): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 4.15.0.115.116 (xenial), package size 2 kB, installed size 12 kB | 09:39 |
| PaulePanter | lotuspsychje: Thanks. I remember why I removed it. | 09:39 |
| PaulePanter | It depends on the microcode update packages, and *thermald* gets installed too. :( | 09:40 |
| PaulePanter | *I remember why it was removed. (As I wanted to shrink the image and removed some of its dependencies.) | 09:40 |
| PaulePanter | Do you have a solution for that? | 09:40 |
| PaulePanter | It looks like, I have to manually keep it updated: | 09:43 |
| PaulePanter | sudo apt install linux-image-4.15.0-115-generic linux-modules-4.15.0-115-generic | 09:43 |
| PaulePanter | … if I do not want the dependencies in a VM. | 09:43 |
| PaulePanter | *QEMU (KVM) VM | 09:43 |
| tomreyn | PaulePanter: linux-virtual-hwe-16.04 | 09:56 |
| tomreyn | or linux-virtual rather | 09:57 |
| tomreyn | there appears to be no hwe support for virtual in xenial | 09:58 |
| tomreyn | but you should probably plan to upgrade soon, anyways. | 09:59 |
| SamuelMarks | hi | 12:32 |
| SamuelMarks | What are my options for 12.04? - Can I downgrade from 16.04? - I'm working from the 12.04 iso and am trying to turn it into a custom cloud image. | 12:33 |
| * SamuelMarks needs 12.04 for an old version of Open edX; then he'll restore his backups and upgrade to the next version, and so on, until I'm at latest Open edX and Ubuntu 18.04 | 12:33 | |
| albert23 | SamuelMarks: you can still download a 12.04 cloud image from http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/precise/current/ | 12:46 |
| tomreyn | !12.04 | 12:46 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) was the sixteenth release of Ubuntu. !End-of-life was April 28th 2017. See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2017-April/003833.html for more information | 12:46 |
| SamuelMarks | yeah I've downloaded it | 12:46 |
| * SamuelMarks is giving up and running a VM on his laotop | 12:46 | |
| tomreyn | yes, you'd definitely want to do this in VMs. | 12:48 |
| SamuelMarks | Yeah it's more that I was trying to get it running on IBM Cloud; but even after converting it to qcow2 it still didn't work there | 12:48 |
| SamuelMarks | Hmm, lots of hash errors on the apt-get update | 12:57 |
| * SamuelMarks tries `sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*` | 12:57 | |
| tomreyn | those archives probably no longer exist where it's looking for them | 12:59 |
| tomreyn | old-releases.ubuntu.com | 13:00 |
| tomreyn | actually, precise is still on archive.ubuntu.com | 13:01 |
| SamuelMarks | Mmmm yeah that worked, ok proceeding with the bootstrap; hopefully won't error | 13:05 |
| SamuelMarks | gpg keyserver receive failed. Hmm, is pgp.mit.edu not around? | 13:10 |
| tomreyn | hopefully no more | 13:11 |
| tomreyn | unless they reinstalled it | 13:11 |
| tomreyn | there's keyserver.ubuntu.com | 13:11 |
| SamuelMarks | Hmm | 13:12 |
| tomreyn | nc -vz pgp.mit.edu 11371 suggests it's listening, though | 13:13 |
| * SamuelMarks is running this script https://github.com/edx/configuration/blob/open-release/eucalyptus.3/util/install/ansible-bootstrap.sh | 13:13 | |
| SamuelMarks | Oh good, new error "key 69464050 not found on keyserver" | 13:14 |

| fretegi | good morning | 19:59 |
| fretegi | so i have an interesting issue... colleague nuked the partition table on a hdd using parted on the wrong disk | 20:12 |
| fretegi | good thing is, the disk in question is just a part of a raid1 data array, not part of the OS disk.. | 20:13 |
| fretegi | so system layout is 1 disk for OS, 2 disks for data in software raid1 using mdadm. LVM for swap and /root on /dev/sda. 1 LVM group for data array. so we destroyed the partition on 1 disk on the data array, but that seems to be preventing the server from booting, lvm errors | 20:17 |
| tomreyn | fretegi: is this solved, yet? | 21:20 |
| tomreyn | if not, can you still boot to recovery? | 21:20 |
| fretegi | tomreyn, i did get it solved, rebuilding the array as we speak, however i am curious why it wouldnt boot | 21:33 |
| fretegi | tomreyn, the affected vg was seperate from the VG that contains / and the vg's are on separate physical disks too | 21:34 |
| tomreyn | fretegi: i suspect you had some file system backed by LV(s) in fstab | 21:34 |
| tomreyn | * unavailable LV(s) | 21:36 |
| fretegi | oh yea both vg's has volumes that were auto mounted via fstab. in fact that is exactly how i got the thing to boot. i just #'d out the affected group, booted right up. thankfully was raid1 was was able to just re-assemble the raid degraded, remount everything and re-add the affected disk to md0. rebuildng as we speak | 21:36 |
| fretegi | so any unavailable LV could cause LVM to just panic altogether? | 21:36 |
| tomreyn | panic? no. fail to boot fully? yes, i think so. | 21:37 |
| tomreyn | i think you can mark mounts as optional in fstab, but then you'll give up on a good way to detect errors you need to fix. | 21:38 |
| fretegi | hmmm... i guess the initramfs may not like the unavail. filesystems | 21:39 |
| tomreyn | and you probably wouldn't want, as an example, logs to be written to the root file system rather than the separate /var/log file system, just because the latter failed to be mounted. | 21:39 |
| tomreyn | which ubuntu release is this aynways? | 21:40 |
| fretegi | yea thats a good pt. fortunately this is a very simple server, i was able to thoroughly track down what that disk was doing almost immediately so with a little fiddling was able to solve it pretty quick. but i just didnt expect the lack of boot | 21:40 |
| fretegi | tomreyn, good question... lemme check | 21:40 |
| fretegi | 16.04 | 21:41 |
| PaulePanter | tomreyn: Thank you. BigBlueButton 2.2 unfortunately requires Ubuntu 16.04. BBB 2.3 is going to be based on Ubuntu 18.04. | 21:42 |
| * PaulePanter does not fully understand that design decision, but that’s the way it is. | 21:42 | |
| tomreyn | fretegi: you should upgrade | 21:56 |
| tomreyn | PaulePanter: there are test builds for 18.04 now, if you'd like to try: https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bbb-install/issues/37#issuecomment-661347668 | 22:03 |
| tomreyn | but they're certainly late on this. | 22:04 |
| fretegi | tomreyn, yea little old eh haha | 22:04 |
| tomreyn | 16.04 still receives free support, but just until april | 22:05 |
| fretegi | yea still, your right, should upgrade | 22:07 |
| Maik | tomreyn: unless ESM is used which adds another 3 years of security updates. One can use ESM for free up to three machines. | 22:15 |
| Maik | Ubuntu members get up to 50 machines by the way | 22:17 |
| tomreyn | Maik: for non-commercial use, yes. fretegi was talking about their "collegue", which makes me think commercial. but sure, they can buy. | 22:30 |
| tomreyn | or just upgrade. or both. | 22:30 |
| Maik | tomreyn: thanks for clarifying, i must have missed reading that. My bad. | 22:59 |
