[heroes] repositories - project names with blanks?
by Per Jessen 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

On pontifex, for pushing out repositories to mirrors, we are notified by way of an internal rsync to /srv/bs/arrived/<project> . The scripts doing the pushing assume that project names contain no blanks. This isn't always the case, so we are left with a list of projects that never get sync'ed: ./Documentation_openSUSE 13.1 ports ./home:Dremor:Aurora:Maintenance:0_Aurora Linux 16.1a ./home:DaniLeo:VoIP_Fedora 22 ./home:Sherminatorschik_openSUSE 12.1 ./home:T_UNIX:misc_Enlightenment openSUSE_12.1 ./home:T_UNIX:misc_Enlightenment openSUSE_12.2 ./home:T_UNIX:misc_Enlightenment openSUSE_Factory ./home:agilisit_kpoole_EA4 CentOS_CentOS-7_standard ./home:beyerle:mba_openSUSE_13.2 Update ./home:danci1973_openSUSE 11.4 ./home:dmolkentin:dracut:1021687_SLE_12_SP2 s390 ./home:geigi_Debian 9 ./home:geigi_Arch Linux ./home:jones_tony:oprofile_test_openSUSE_Factory PPC ./home:geigi_Debian 8 ./home:geigi_Debian Next ./home:kasimir:RaspberryPi3_aarch64_standard ./home:linux4humans:Qt-5.6-without-cups-xinput2-webkit_openSUSE Evergreen 11.4 ./home:lupinix-indi:fedora-bleeding_Fedora 24 ./home:mawatech_Debian Squeeze ./home:mawatech_Debian Wheezy ./home:mlschroe_openSUSE_ Factory ./home:ntami:strupp_SUSE SLE-12-SP1 ./home:seu_Fedora 20 ./home:temeo_CentOS 6 ./home:temeo_CentOS 7 ./home:temeo_Fedora 19 ./home:smplayerdev:tests_Fedora 22 ./home:smplayerdev:tests_Fedora 23 ./home:temeo_Fedora 20 ./home:temeo_RedHat 7 ./home:toganm:python_Factory python3 ./home:temeo_SUSE SLE-12 GA ./home:temeo_SUSE SLE-12 SP3 ./home:temeo_openSUSE 12.2 ./home:temeo_openSUSE 12.3 ./home:temeo_openSUSE 13.1 ./home:temeo_openSUSE 13.2 ./security:shibboleth ./home:megamaced:openSUSE114_openSUSE 11.4 ./systemsmanagement:puppet_ openSUSE_Leap_42.3 What is the accepted standard - do we work with project names containing blanks or not? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (10.1°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] Adding openSUSE to the systemd upstream ci
by Benjamin Brunner 22 Mar '19

22 Mar '19

Hi Heroes, Hi Ludwig, I'm not sure who to contact, maybe you can help me or point me in the right direction. We would like to add openSUSE Tumbleweed to the upstream-ci of systemd, see https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/12040. One of the preconditions is to provide access to openSUSE baremetal systems. Is this something which would be in the scope of the heroes team? If not, do you maybe know who would be the best contact? Thanks in advance for your input, Benjamin -- Benjamin Brunner <bbrunner(a)suse.com>, Engineering Manager System Boot and Init SUSE Linux GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany GF: Felix Imendörffer, Mary Higgins, Sri Rasiah HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] Issues with various services - haproxy issue?
by Christian Boltz 19 Mar '19

19 Mar '19

Hello, various services (for example static.o.o, metrics.o.o, kubic.o.o, lists.o.o) had/have multiple "random" failures - enough to trigger multiple reports on IRC. For some time, they were unreachable ("connection denied"), and then they randomly re-appeared, and later failed again. The servers behind these domains (like narwal*) work - I can access them via their *.infra.o.o name while the public side gives me connection denied. One thing the affected services have in common is that they are routed via proxy-nue.o.o, with the exception of static.o.o which has its own IP (on the same server, so not too different). Services using login2.o.o don't seem to be affected. Unfortunately I have no idea what exactly is causing these problems. I can only guess that this is either an issue with haproxy, or something between haproxy and the internet. Whoever reads this mail and has an idea how to debug it, please do that ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz -- Wie meinte doch neulich ein OS/2 oder CygWin-User: PATH=C:\backspace\return;E:\tab\newline;D:\home W:\pakete\mypaket\configure --prefix=F:\fondlinge [Ralf Corsepius in suse-programming] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] static.o.o is a bit less static now
by Christian Boltz 17 Mar '19

17 Mar '19

Hello, as hopefully nobody noticed ;-) I moved static.o.o, html5test.o.o, shop.o.o and studioexpress.o.o to new servers (of course fully salt- managed) in the last days. Besides the new servers and getting rid of an old SLE11, there's one important change: We now have an hourly cronjob that does a git pull from github to make static.o.o and the other mentioned vhosts a bit less static ;-) (In the old setup, only the chameleon theme had such a cronjob, everything else needed manual deployment.) Note that the handling of gitmodules is a bit special. git includes the repos included as gitmodules at a specific revision which is great for "normal" code, but doesn't make sense with the "always use the latest version" approach we need for static.o.o. Therefore the server ignores the gitmodules and instead does a plain "git clone" of the submodules. This also means gitmodule changes need an update on the salt side, so if you ever add or remove gitmodules from one of the repos used for static.o.o, please tell me (or update the salt code yourself). For an overview of the used git repos, have a look at the salt code, especially pillar/role/static_master.sls Regards, Christian Boltz -- By the way, it's a sign of how good the distribution is that we're arguing about the name and not dealing with problems in the essence of the thing. Even the overloaded servers are what an old boss of mine would have called a "success problem."

[heroes] Theo leaving the Heroes soon
by Theo Chatzimichos 08 Mar '19

08 Mar '19

Dear Heroes, I'd like to let you all know that I am leaving SUSE end of April. One of my responsibilities was to provide support to the Heroes team especially for critical services, and also provide the communication regarding infra related topics between the Heroes and the SUSE Engineering Infrastructure (formerly SUSE-IT) team. There will be a replacement for those responsibilities who will be announced to you in the near future. Furthermore, I have decided to stop my volunteer contributions to the Heroes team and to the openSUSE project in general, as my girlfriend gave me a macbook for christmas and I don't use linux any more at home. Feel free to send her hate mail :) I will send another reminder before I leave with my contacts, so that you can still ask me any questions in case my piece of code is a total mess and I need to explain it (quite impossible of course, as I write spotless code always). That said, I'd like to thank you all for being such an awesome, helpful, passionate, knowledgable, motivated, productive community! It was more than a pleasure working with all of you. I gained a lot of knowledge, met some great people, made friends, had a lot of fun! I started contributing as a volunteer to the openSUSE infrastructure administration around 2012, a bit after oSC12, with the precious mentoring of darix, Lars, Martin and Rudi, and it became part of my work responsibilities on early 2015. We made quite some effort to open as much as possible of the infrastructure, which led to the Heroes team creation a year later, with a significant amount of community volunteers taking over quite important responsibilities. Automation was always my priority, as the Infrastructure as Code and the containerization efforts allowed more openness, collaboration, testing and faster deployments. It was very rewarding seeing all of that effort being appreciated by the community, and more volunteers joining slowly and taking over small or big responsibilities. Contributing to the infrastructure part of a FOSS project is a unique opportunity for knowledge and making connections and friends. openSUSE is the third big FOSS project I have contributed in the past 12 years, and I would really encourage people interested in DevOps and Automation technologies to take the Leap (pun intended) and join the Heroes. At least I can say with certainty that it has been a life-changing experience to me. Not-good-bye-yet Theo
