Morning folks,
Would this list be the best place to post feedback regarding the test build of the update stack packages you posted yesterday Andreas? Or is it better moved to bugzilla...? If so I can move all this to bugzilla with logs etc.
Please move it to bugzilla as commented below.
Here are my observations so far anyway.
1. The 10.1 release update stack successfully installed the test builds after I added the URL as a YUM service via zen-updater. However the whole upgrade took an extremely long time ( 15 minutes approx ). I was unable to determine why it was taking so long, i dont *think* it was the downloading...
It was quite fast for me, if you know why it's slow, it's worth a report otherwise I guess we cannot do much.
2. Adding services via rug is just fine, and as per the 10.1 release builds ZYPP services are synced with YaST, YUM services are not. Adding services via zen-updater, same as rug, it works and the synching is the same.
Please report a bug with yum - it might even be a design decision right now.
2. Adding a larger service such as main online installation from mirror( inst-sources ) is much smoother. The service itself was added to the list in yast inst_sources almost instantaneously and unlilke the 10.1 release the catalog was not immediately downloaded but was only fetched when the finish button was pressed. At a rough guess I would say the whole process of adding the main installation source is 50% quicker now.
Good.
3. ZMD scheduling seems to be a bit broken now. It appears that the service refresh happens at the same time as the hourly maintenance, even though it is scheduled for the next day. Once the full service refresh and maintenance has run ( hourly by default it seems ) the schedule is reset with an updated time for the service refresh 24 hours later and 1 hour later for the maintenance. Of course the service refresh still happens one hour later and another new time i scheduled for it.
This has the side effect of a full service refresh will run if my system is booted outside of the hourly maintenance window, parse-metadata and update-status hogging 100% CPU for a few minutes on boot. If i reboot my system inside the hourly maintenance window this does not happen.
Please file a bug against the component "ZENworks", Thanks, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
