[heroes] Fwd: Hardware Donations
by ddemaio 14 Feb '20

Hi all, I received this email from a person offering to contribute to openSUSE infra. I said I would forward it to you all and remarked that they can join your meetings if they are interested. v/r Doug -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Hardware Donations Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2020 22:37:54 +0100 From: Lisu <lis6502(a)gmail.com> To: donations(a)opensuse.org Hello. Encouraged by site saying that i can contribute to opensuse (which i am rather new to btw) i would like to ask how it could look like. Before getting an actual answer, there are specs of my home lab. Thinkpad x131e - dual core Celeron, 2GB of ram (but will expand), mainly used as gateway to my lan (hold ssh and so on), HP t610 - dual core AMD G-T56, 8GB of ram, used as Proxmox for few LXC containers as well as KVM... vms ;) Dell e5570, dual core i5-6200U with 8GB of ram, general purpose workstation, mostly up. Raspberry PI Zero - armv6, 512MB, debian based perl bridge to 433MHz RC outlets Supermicro server - Xeon 5660, 24G of ram, my main storage (6+TB) and Postgres server HP Z800- dual Xeon 5660, 24G of ram, currently powered off. All these are networked with 1GbE/866Mb 802.11AC to RB4011GS Mikrotik router and connected to interwebs via 500/30Mbps link. If "contribution" means that it "offer" my processing power along with net link to host build server, please consider me as interested in. Due to nature of my homelab, my babies are being shut down only on prolonged periods of my absence (like when on vacation or weekend trip, which occurs rarely), and mostly idling. I am aware of their power consumption while stressed and i am not afraid of it:) Please mail me back if my "offer" sounds reasonable.

[heroes] Heroes bot does not log in any more
by Lars Vogdt 10 Feb '20

10 Feb '20

Hi After fixing the notification problem of the heroes-bot in the #opensuse-admin channel, I thought I could leave the daemon alone for another year or so. But recently I noticed that the bot seems not to be able.to connect to the IRC server any longer. According to the logs it seems that he is asked for credentials? Therefor my stupid question: has anyone seen this before or changed something in the config? Otherwise I need to dig into this, forcing me to ignore some other stuff on the todo list :-( Regards, Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] Status report
by Per Jessen 03 Feb '20

03 Feb '20

I will most probably not be back in time for the meeting tomorrow, so here is a short status of what I have been up to - --- mirrorbrain routeviews ever since pontifex was upgraded last year, the daily update of routeviews wasn't working. The script downloaded ipv4 and ipv6 data, and the latter could not be loaded into the database, so all updates were ignored. It's working now, but I have some updates that need pushing back into the repo. --- mirror tickets - you will all have seen them :-) We basically had some 90 dead/inactive mirrors, more or less. Many were picked up by scanning the rsync logs, so we have no contacts and no commitment. I have written to most of them asking about their status. Judging by mirrors.o.o, other mirrors appear to be active, but only carry e.g. Leap15.0 and have long stopped synchronizing. I'll start on those later. --- forums migration you have probably all read some of the discussion here on the list. My stance remains the same - I would prefer a quick and dirty solution, de-coupling us from MF-IT, and leaving us time to work on doing it properly. Doing any more and still meeting the deadline would mean more pressure on me, and I cannot guarantee to have the time. Issues remaining - * need SLE12SP5 installed on a VM * database export still pending * SSO integration Until Jim Henderson enlightened me last week, I thought the forums were more or less stand-alone. I was not aware that the login credentials are under SSO control in Provo. I will need some help understanding this and working out a solution. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (16.8°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] forums migration - vbulletin
by Per Jessen 31 Jan '20

31 Jan '20

I need an opinion - I've hit a slight hurdle. The vBulletin code we are running in Provo is version 4.2.2, so quite old. It is so old it does not work with php 7.2, only older. (I haven't actually tried, that is what google tells me). I think we have three, maybe four options - a) upgrade vBulletin to the latest, cost USD249. May or may not make the migration easier, but at least we'd have an up-to-date platform. b) run the current 4.2.2 version, but on php7.0 or 7.1 - I don't know if we have packages available for Leap15.1. Might not be difficult to build. c) run the current 4.2.2 version, on Leap 42.3 with php7.0 - which I guess does not go well with our SLA. d) switch to something else, e.g. discourse. Apart from migrating the current contents, this is easy. I don't know what the forum admins would say to losing the contents. What's your vote? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (6.9°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] FYI: wiki databases migrated
by Lars Vogdt 30 Jan '20

30 Jan '20

Hi I don't have much time, but want to let you know that all wiki databases are migrated to the galera cluster in the openSUSE heroes network. With this, there is no need any longer to proxy the mysql connections into the old network. The proxy port is disabled (commented out) on anna & elsa. Just in case there is a problem...

[heroes] php 7.3 or php 7.4 in 15.2
by pgajdos 29 Jan '20

29 Jan '20

Hello, perhaps is too late now, but maybe there is still a chance to get 7.4 instead of 7.3. What is your position on that? Petr -- Have a lot of fun! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner(a)opensuse.org

[heroes] need a database update - changing a column in pfx2asn.
by Per Jessen 28 Jan '20

28 Jan '20

I can probably do this myself, but I don't know if I need to do it everywhere (mirrordb[1234]) or if updates are automatically propagated ?
