[CentOS-announce] Welcome Thomas and Patrick to CentOS Project Governing Board

2020-04-07 Thread Karanbir Singh
Hi,

  The CentOS Governing Board of Directors is pleased to appoint two new
Directors to be added to the Governing Board, effective 8th April 2020:
Thomas Oulevey [1] and Patrick Riehecky [2]. The community will
instantly recognise both from their long standing and well established
support for the CentOS Project over the years, initially as consumers
and community participants, and in more recent times as active across
various initiatives in and around the project space.

  Over the last sixteen years the CentOS project has established itself
as a critical component in the open source ecosystem online. In order to
maintain this leading role and help drive success for the wider open
source ecosystem, we are moving to a more contributor-centric model. A
key part of enabling this goal is to evolve our transparent governance.
Pat and Thomas have shown keen interest in participating in this
specific endeavour, and we are excited to welcome them to the team,
helping us get there.

  Thomas (alphacc) works in the Controls group within the CERN Beams
department [3]. He has contributed to the CentOS Project since 2012, as
a member of the infrastructure team. He helped to bootstrap a few
Special Interest Groups, helped the QA team with reports, and now mainly
designs and improves the Community Build Service [4]. Thomas’s sponsor
on the Board is Mike McLean, who will help oversee his transition to
project leadership.

  Patrick (jcpunk) works at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory [5].
He is part of the Scientific Linux team [6] and works on systems that
perform Data Acquisition for various experiments at Fermilab. Although a
long time member of the community, formally Pat began working with the
CentOS Community when Fermilab decided to use CentOS 8 [7] as its
EL8-base platform. Pat’s sponsor is Johnny Hughes, who will help oversee
his transition to project leadership.

Please join me in welcoming them to the team,

Regards

Karanbir Singh
Project Lead, The CentOS Project

it would be good if someone on the docs team ( or docs focused could

drive that conversation productively ).

Other than that, +1 to engage moin upstream

does media-wiki have an api ?

[CentOS-docs] wiki content management via automation

2018-02-21 Thread Karanbir Singh
Hi

the CentOS Cloud images and other things are now built from end to end
automated pipelines, but the wiki content corresponding to them isnt. Is
there something that can be used to do this automation ?

I have done some stuff many many years ago, via directly mangling
content on the wiki objects, but that might not be the best way forward.

thoughts ?


Regards

Getting Help

The CentOS ecosystem is sustained by community driven help and
guidance. The best place to start for new users is at
http://wiki.centos.org/GettingHelp

We are also on social media, you can find the project:
on Twitter at  : http://twitter.com/CentOSProject
on Facebook at : https://www.facebook.com/groups/centosproject/
on LinkedIn at : https://www.linkedin.com/groups/22405

And you will find the core team and a majority of the contributors on

Contributors

This release was made possible due to the hard work of many people,
foremost on that list are the Red Hat Engineers for producing a great
distribution and the CentOS QA team, without them CentOS Linux would
look very different. Many of the team went further and beyond
expectations to bring this release to you, and I would like to thank
everyone for their help.

We are also looking for people to get involved with the QA process in
CentOS, if you would like to join this please introduce yourself on
the centos-devel list
(http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel ).

As some people would have noticed there is no i686 build for 1708 as yet
- we have run into a couple of build and dependency issues that could
use help. So if you are keen to get involved this is a great opportunity.

Finally, please join me in thanking the donors who all make this
possible for us.

Enjoy the fresh new release!

[CentOS-docs] Splitting the container pipeline page in the wiki

2017-09-08 Thread Karanbir Singh
hi Bama

since there are other things going on in the container space around
centos, I was thinking maybe we can setup a /Container page, and then
have a /Container/Registry and a /Container/Pipeline page each. the
pipeline page can talk about the service, code and run setup. and the
registry page can talk about howto get content in there, what content is
already there and urls to the user setup and consumer stuff.

would that work for you ?

this would also unblock content coming up like /Container/Docker etc

and the /Container page can perhaps just be an index pointing to the
relevant info.

regards,

Hi, you will need a real name, full name for the wiki access.

Also, can you share some details on exactly what you intend to post to
the wiki itself ? as in how / what the Rancher context here would be ?

I road travel quite a bit, and have a Garmin Dezl 760D with my own
profiles on there. In both of my trucks, I've got gps recievers running
off raspberry pi3's, running CentOS7/armv7 images. I bring all this
together on my laptop, running viking and gpsbabel under the hood.

This allows me to do all my route planning on either google-maps,
google-earth, or viking and all the tracks from the different devices
come together as layers. The POI tracking and specially the topo
tracking on viking is pretty good. There is no viable road-route planner
that works on Linux at this point though.

Thats the one thing that the garmin apps do really well. As a
workaround, I've used viamichelin to good effect ( and wikiloc ); and
all the tools and bits you need to track and refactor on the road, come
together really well on CentOS.

off the wire, I've had lots of positive reports from the new AMD chips
running CentOS Linux 7. So my question to you would be, were you able to
track down a specific problem ? or are you looking for more general
feedback.

If its the later, then yes, CentOS Linux 7/x86_64 works fine out of the
box with these new chips. You might want to do your own benchmarks for
interfaces and components eg. pci bus etc.

yeah, that can be factored in as well. There were concerns in the past
from people not wanting their chat's logged and published, since in many
cases as is with CentOS, people are talking about problems and potential
solutions to internet facing infra / production services etc

Can you try  ami-500d8546 i us-east-1 and let me know if that works for
the c4.8large ?

I've asked, a few times, for the CentOS Linux images in AMP to be
enabled for all instance types where the image will work. So if its not
being enabled, there is a chance the image isnt suitable, and we should
find out why.

This release was made possible due to the hard work of many people,
foremost on that list are the Red Hat Engineers for producing a great
distribution and the CentOS QA team, without them CentOS Linux would
look very different.

We are also looking for people to get involved with the QA process in
CentOS, if you would like to join this please introduce yourself on
the centos-devel list
(http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel ).

This is how OracleCloud works, they are unable to consume a raw file
directly. I agree, its a bit odd.

for the sake of size, lots of people prefer to download the qcow2c image
( note the compressed flag ), and qemu-img convert on their own end. Is
that an option for your usecase ?

will try and get that fixed.

these are images prebuilt to work in cloud infrastructure like openshift
/ amazon ec2 etc. they are pre-setup with cloud-init tools and are
formatted in different backing filetypes.

you can use them for local VM's as well, but you will just need to do a
bit more work since there is no way to login to the images without
exporting the metadata externally to setup passwords and keys etc.

we should be able to run a rss feed locally for content going into the

though.

what is the real workflow you are looking at for this ?

Great question!

On the CentOS side, we are working with both the upstreams ( RedHat and
Microsoft in this case ) to make sure we get deliver the content, in the
various formats, easily and everywhere. And I'm keen to make sure we are
able to do this in a way that the upstream developers of the code know
and understand the delivery mechanics for this. This including actually
looking at onboarding the dotnet-core on Linux team into a SIG and then
setting up build, test, release, lifecycle loops from the CentOS Project
infra directly.

On the downstream product side, once the content is available we will
work through the build machanics and take it from there.

Maybe https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos might be a good place, since its
essentially a howto get started with the registry. Would that work for
everyone ?

yes, I agree. The Atomic registry has nothing to do with the container
pipeline, so the two should not be confused into the same namespace. we
should document howto use the registry in the same way as we do howto's
for apps etc.

in the early days I had a json file that had the details in there, but
it was dropped almost a year ago. If you file a requst at
bugs.centos.org and point me at it ( ideally assign the issue to me ), I
can work out the required bits.

What sort of info would you expect to see in this beyond
- filename
- date of last upates
- centos ver
- arch
- file format
- sha256um

that looks like Supplementary content - we've never had that before.

what we might need to do here is work the upstream beyond Red Hat
where this works done, that makes it Supplementary content and not
completely open source. Do we atleast know at this point what that
might be ?

is there someone else on here who can help ? I think if we can
demonstrate some traction, it would go a long way in both the upstream
engagement and the conversation with Red Hat - since we can then
demonstrate a communal win.

Johnny, can you perhaps quantify the effort a bit ? And if you need
help what sort of help you might need for this ? I suspect a large
part of that is just going to be time in day.

[CentOS-announce] Notification of outage : mirrorlist.centos.org (ipv4) 2016-05-16 08:58 UTC

2016-04-16 Thread Karanbir Singh
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

At 05:00 UTC 2016-05-16 an automated component update caused the
mirrorlist service for CentOS to go down for all IPv4 based services.
The IPv6 service for mirrorlist.centos.org was unaffected.

By 08:11 UTC 2016-05-16 I rolled back the impacted components,
disabled the update mechanics, and restarted services.

By 08:15 UTC 2016-05-16 Services were returning to normal.

By 08:23 UTC 2016-05-16 we had multiple confirmations from around the
world that services were restored.

- ---
system wide followup:

- - We will work to extend and add where needed, better testing around
each component involved in such roles.

- - I will work with Fabian and make sure that all our automated
component and system changes that impact a production service are only
run during regular working hours for the team.

- ---
root cause:

all the components involved in the downtime are backed up and we will
start looking at the root cause of why services went down, for now the
immediate focus was to restore services which was done by a rollback.

- ---
reporting issues:

Note that for real time, time sensitive issues always drop into
#centos-devel on irc.freenode.net and let us know, along with filing a
bug report at bugs.centos.org - For any non time critical issues,
please report them at bugs.centos.org against the 'Infrastructure'
project, and we will aim to address them as soon as possible.

accounts.centos.org is only mapped to cbs.centos.org at this point, so
you still need a login at bugs.centos.org / wiki.centos.org /
ci.centos.org etc, we will gradually roll all the services into one

I believe the second fail-back operation is what caused most of the
issues, this was failing back from the backup source to the mains once
they were live again.

[CentOS-announce] Notice of Service Outage and followup LON1/UK Facility

2016-04-01 Thread Karanbir Singh
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

== What happened ==

On Wednesday February 24th, at  6pm UTC time, the DC hosting some of
the CentOS equipments used for various roles had suffered from
multiple electricity power outages. The facility was completely dark
for just under 2 hrs, and we were able to start recovering services by
8pm UTC. By midnight we had most services restored, by 2:00AM UTC Feb
25th we had all services restored.

That meant that the machines in those racks were running on batteries
(ups in the racks) but finally went down in an uncontrolled way due to
lack ot communication with that UPS.

Subsequent on Monday March 14th, we suffered another power outage in
the racks, this time due to a overload on the rack power circuits.

== Services that were impacted ==
 - severity critical : mirrorlist.centos.org node (IPv6) went down
(while multiple mirrorlist.centos.org nodes for IPv4 nodes were still
online). That means that machines with only IPV6 connectivity couldn't
get yum to work to retrieve the list of nearest mirrors.
 - severity medium : Our main buildservices queue management services
were down; note: this did not impact our ability to build, test and
deliver updates.
 - severity medium : www.centos.org and www.centos.org/forums weren't
reachable through IPv6 : at the moment, those services are natively
reachable through IPv4, but proxied through nodes in that DC for IPv6
users. Most tested browsers were falling back to IPv4 during that period
 - severity medium : CentOS DevCloud
(https://wiki.centos.org/DevCloud) : that means that CentOS Developers
weren't able to instantiate new CentOS test VMs for their work, but
also weren't able to reach the existing ones.
 - severity low : several publicly facing small services like
http://planet.centos.org , http://seven.centos.org (not critical and
could be restored quickly to other VMs elsewhere)
 - severity low : the server leading the armv7hl builds for the Plague
build farm was also offline, meaning no armhfp build during that
timeframe (but not updates were to be built, so mitigated issue)

= Followup actions and notes
   Over the years, the baseline recovery model we've used and tried to
enforce is one of 'restore in place', take a downtime hit if needed -
and ensure we have service continuity for the user facing components (
the mirrorlist service, the centos update and content distribution
services). For other resources, like the main website etc, we ensure
there are good backups available in multiple places, usable to restore
services should there be a need. This model has worked well for us
over the years, and we've had very little, if any, service outages
that had a user impact. The restore in place/restore outside HA also
meant we were able to better utilise the exclusively sponsored
machines we rely on.

   However, as the project grows, with a lot more infrastructure being
consolidated into a few locations for non CDN services, our exposure
to service downtime has dramatically increased. Its clear that we need
to expand the scope of where  we backup to, how we backup, how we
anticipate failure and our ability to restore services in a timely
manner should there be facilities outages. In the coming weeks, we are
going to undertake a deep dive into our Infrastructure design and
delivery and try to first come up with a consolidated set of risks we
need to manage against, and then work towards reducing the risk,
spreading the availability as needed.

   Our backend storage platform for the DevCloud and persistent
storage for other nodes in the facility is run from a distributed,
replicated Gluster setup. Inspite of the sudden loss of power, in a
production environment with hundreds of running VMs and dozens of
running data jobs, we were able to trivially recover our entire data
set with minimum data loss. Some of the running VMs inside the
DevCloud did see local filesystem issues, but we dont think that was a
backing storage issue. This event has dramatically increased out
confidence in the gluster technology stack and we will certainly be
looking at extending deployments for it internally.

== Comments about hosting facility ==

   Their Status post about this
http://status.uk2.net/2016/02/24/london-power-outage/

   We have multiple racks at this facility, and have a long standing
relationship with them going back to late Summer 2012. Over this
period we have had a near perfect uptime record for our equipment
there. And above all we have been consistently impressed with the
speed of and the knowledgeable support we've recieved at the DC. In
many cases, how the facility reacts to outage defines the real service
value - and in this case, we can only commend the fantastic support we
had through the outage hours. We do however feel there could be better
monitoring and reporting of some of the facilities information and
will be working with them to improve in those regards.

Have you considered using a Config Drive instead ? That way you can
actually do whatever contexutalisation you need. Here is an example you
can likely clone and extend:

https://github.com/kbsingh/atomic-ci/blob/master/tests/z_0-genConfigDrive/1-genConfigDrive.sh

You would then just need to boot the instance with this config drive
.iso attached as the cdrom to the machine, which should also just be
scriptable.

We do publish a qcow2c, the always updated version ( updated each month
end ) is at :
http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/images/CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud.qcow2c

This is a symlink that points to the latest image. At the moment this is
:
http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/images/CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud-1602.qcow2c

There will be a 1603 by the end of this week

the way to do this is to self host the content, with relevant

-1 from me, CentOS scope isnt the same as RHEL ones.

if we cant get the docs and host / adapt to taste, I am ok for us to
move the existing docs into an archive/ area, but retain it on the site,
along with the relevant content redirection as needed, and just drop
having current release docs.

if none is willing to do the work to make centos docs possible, clearly
the community has rejected having these docs in the first place.

let me check with the AMP folks - they manage the actual backing image

Let me look through the bits and see where we are and get this process
started up. We'd need to get some basic testing done, and then we can
promote it a bit.

is the docker-1.10 stack completely in-place replacement/upgrade from
the existing distro hosted docker ( 1.8.2 ? )

well, you can certainly run CentOS on a rpi2, and there are some other
options as well.

great! I've mostly just stuck with the ttl cable, with serial console
and use the cubietruck and the rpi2 as headless devices.

you should be vocal on the arm-dev list, we are looking at ways of doing
an epel mass build as well for the altarch distro's.

join the arm-dev list ( https://lists.centos.org )  CentOS has a great
story across the entire ARMv7 and v8 platform, with every major vendor
in the ARM 64bit platform working with us. We say the rpi3 release this
morning and are going to work on a bringup to match our rpi2 images.
However, we will also be doing a 64bit image, based on CentOS Linux
7/aarch64 release

yeah, the CentOS-5 and 6 Xen stacks already do something similar - which
is why I was expecting the CentOS 7 one to do that as well. Let me work
this with George and see where he thinks.

[CentOS] power management / tuned following external power source

2016-02-28 Thread Karanbir Singh
hi,

twice in the last week I've been caught out where the laptop was running
tuned with 'throughput-performance' profile on the work table, and I
walked away, carried on working - and had the battery run flat in just
over an hour.

Compare this with tuned running the 'powersave' profile - will usually
take the battery through to 3hrs+ - and if i just totally turn down the
cpu's in the powersave mode, I can get 5 hrs+ on the x1 carbon gen2
laptop I've got.

So what I am wondering is if there is an easy way to have the tuned-adm
reset profiles based on external power source. If I'm at the work table
and plugged in, run with throughput-performance mode, and if the
external power is disconnected, run in powersave mode ? I've had,
admittedly a brief, look and found nothing obvious. Has anyone else run
into this before ?

Regards

i had to do something similar, but my question is - one cant run xen
without the kernel, so why not have the xen package require the xen
kernel as a prereq ?

can you check and let me know - I've looked at the pending queues a few
minutes back and found nothing there. So anything due to buildlogs or

you dont need that centos-release-xen anymore.

once there is enough traction, the 'xen' repo itself will go away ( its
a symlink right now, pointing to the latest xen-XX in each of the centos
repos )

best thing to do for new folks is to come to the SIG meeting, and work
through the process that way - also introduce yourself to the other
folks in the SIG, so they have an idea on what you are looking to do and
how they might help!

not as yet, the SCL Sig guys are working through the initial bootstrap,

your laptop has a switch to turn on/ turn off the wifi - and its
currently turned off. this might be a real switch, or a key combination.

There is no plan for having SIG content on www.centos.org - so we wont
be listing them there, but there were conversations on how best to
have SIG downloads more visible on the wiki Download page ( which is
the main download destination anyway ).

It might be worth restarting that conversation.

Atomic wasent listed there in the past, since we didnt have a stable
GA release as such.

Thats right, there are no point release updates, you will also notice
that older deprecated content will be removed from mirror.centos.org in
a few weeks time.

The way to work around surprises in large installation is to enable the
CR/ repos on a select few testing machines - this will give you access,
ahead of main release, to the content for the main release. Any update
that is going to take more than a few days to get out, is released via
CR/ repos first. Also, finding and reporting bugs during this process
helps get rectification in before it becomes the default for the entire
user base.

Having said this, what exactly is the issue you are facing ?

Switch to the VC's and see what the error message is in the logs. do you

this might be down to when anaconda does its disk scan, and when the
parts were created by hand. Ideally, just use anaconda to do the same
thing and you should be fine.

This is a huge issue, its something we've debated many times and I dont
think there is a clear answer, yet. At this point we have yum use the
gpg keys setup at install time, from the install media - it should not
be going over the wire to grab keys. And we sign the install media, and
its sha sum's - so uses can verify things.

the underlaying thinking being that if the install media is compromised,
anything it does and any content it grabs over the wire should be
considered potentially compromised - so enforce the idea of media test,
media validation, and deliver the first ring of trust via the media.

Having said that, your point about using DNS as a second way to verify
the keys is a good one, I believe its come up in the past as well. And
we have a todo item to get dnssec up for centos.org in the near future.
what I would recommend, is to open an issue report at bugs.centos.org/
to track this as a task.

As a related subject, we do push the main key fingerprints via https at
www.centos.org/keys

[CentOS-announce] Release for CentOS AltArch 7 (1511) on x86_64

2015-12-18 Thread Karanbir Singh
delivered for this architecture. The images shipped are ready to run and
are board specific. While there is plenty of desktop and X related
support available, our focus for these builds has been towards the
server and IoT roles.

We have a dedicated mailing list for the ARM ports ( both Armhfp and
Aarch64 ) at https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/arm-dev ;
questions specific to these builds and images should be posted there.

I'd like to thank everyone involved in this process. We have come a long
way down the route from the initial plans of getting the AltArch project
bootstrapped, and its only down to the dedciated efforts from the people
involved in this process that we are able to deliver support for five
new architectures.

I also want to take this opportunity to point out that we run an office
hours forum, twice a week. Details are available at
https://www.centos.org/community/calendar/#Karanbir_Singh_Office_Hours ,
please feel free to stop by and say hi. We welcome comments and
questions around pretty much anything / everything relevant to the
CentOS community.

enjoy!

on the flip side, ignore the point in time, assume you run /7/ and need
to update as you go along, with the YYmm telling you how far adrift you
are... in workloads where there is no real update in place ( think
cloud, container, atomic etc ), its the only reference you get to a
single package set.

Note that there is a /etc/centos-release-upstream as well that
identifies what ver of the upstream we are currently tracking.

> Oh, wait: CentOS, love it or leave it.

I hope its not that drastic!

There are multiple issues and fallouts etc here, start from the fact
that the point number isnt really much other than a datestamp, to who
and how it gets used and for what purpose etc. But the thing that
bothers me most is that the reason as to why we are doing this and how
its implemented isnt clear to people on this thread.

eg. when we were doing x.y, RHEL wasent. They were on a X release, and
all the other point in time data was communicated outside of that scope
( eg in EL3 / 4 etc ). I believe being pragmatic around this, and
delivering value into areas that needed it most is good thing for us and
the userbase at large - however, if we are breaking systems for existing
setup's then we should address that. I took onboard all the feedback
from 7 release time and I believe the system we have in place now should
work for most people ( no one has been able to demonstrate a problem
space in the distro as such ).

If the issue is around communication and how we export the metadata /
mindset - I totally take on board that we've had serious issues in that
space. Even the fact that there is a CR/ repo isnt something most people
understand or even know about, its something we should fix.

Greg's pointed out the website version reporting, and its a great point
- however, note that we are already working on fixing that side of
things by bringing all Download specific info into 1 place, and doing
this on the wiki ( wiki.centos.org/Download ) - we are moving all
version specific content away from the website; the net result being
that the website becomes about the project, and the wiki becomes the
defacto source for all things content ( linux distro, sig's content,
user help etc ). This is also primarily driven by the fact that we've
struggled to keep the site updated and relevant, whereas the wiki with
its much larger user base and contributor base has far better churn.

So lets workout what the tangible issues are, and then work on resolving
those.

I will end by saying that we have more than a few million monthly
instances out there now, in container space, in cloud space, in
developer instances - and all of those people have hugely benefited from
the new visioning.

I certainly dont want you to leave!

This is the thing that bothers me most - that folks dont have a good
grasp on what / why the numbering is working like this.

We are still a small team, and all efforts are flat out on getting the
iso media and images done, out of the door - but as soon as I have this
done, I'll look at hosting some google hangouts, irc sessions and maybe
a longer email thread as well to lay out the numbering proposition.

If you look down the same wiki Download page, in the 'Base Distribution
section' there is a CentOS release ver to RHEL release ver mapping, to
indicate which version of the RHEL sources a specific CentOS build is
derived from.

7(1503) : RHEL 7.1
7(1406) : RHEL 7.0

thats good to hear - there are quite a few rebases and a lot of new
added functionality in the new release. In the coming weeks, I will try
and visit some of these via blog posts, videos etc. If anything specific

You might want to also check there is enough diskspace for the initrd to

[CentOS-announce] Release for Software Collections SIG content

2015-10-23 Thread Karanbir Singh
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

The Software Collections SIG group is pleased to announce a way of
Software Collections packages availability for CentOS Linux users. The
Software Collections packages have been build in CentOS Build System
[1] and will be available soon on CentOS mirrors. Collections will be
released in stacks, as we test and validate them.

With Software Collections provided by SCLo SIG, users of CentOS Linux
as well as other SIG groups in the CentOS ecosystem will be able to
use the latest versions of popular application stacks, databases or
other content mainly focused on developers. And they are able to do
this without any impact to the system versions already installed on
their machine.

The SCLo SIG is not only meant to include packages rebuilt from
Software Collections that have been made available in Red Hat Software
Collections (RHSCL), but it is also meant to include updated content
or collections that are not part of the RHSCL portfolio at all.

So far, the collections rebuilt by SCLo SIG from RHSCL are
devassist09, devtoolset-3, git19, httpd24, mariadb55, maven30,
mongodb24, mysql55, nginx14, nginx16, nodejs010, perl516, php54,
php55, postgresql92, python27, python33, rh-java-common,
rh-mariadb100, rh-mongodb26, rh-mysql56, rh-passenger40, rh-perl520,
rh-php56, rh-postgresql94, rh-python34, rh-ror41, rh-ruby22, ror40,
ruby193, ruby200, thermostat1 and v8314.

With Software Collections that are not part of RHSCL (so far
sclo-vagrant1 collection), both CentOS Linux and RHEL users will be
provided by content that is not available on those platforms otherwise.

Getting started with Software collections:
On an updated CentOS Linux 7/x86_64 machine run:
  yum install centos-release-scl

This will enable the right repositories, and bring any metadata needed
to validate the content.

Learn more about Software Collections concepts at:
http://softwarecollections.org/ You can find information on the SIG at
https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/SCLo this includes howto
get involved and help with the effort.

[CentOS-announce] Update for centos-release-openstack

2015-10-16 Thread Karanbir Singh
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


The CentOS Cloud SIG (
https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Cloud ) is releasing a
new OpenStack metadata package called centos-release-openstack-kilo
that replaces centos-release-openstack. Metadata packages in CentOS
are used to setup the repositories used by the package manager ( yum )
and the signing keys used to validate content installed from the
corresponding repositories. The present metadata package, called
centos-release-openstack, does not allow for us to have multiple
OpenStack versions available to users, without adding many layers of
complexity to the install and update process.

This new OpenStack metadata package ( centos-release-openstack-kilo )
effectively sets up the mechanics required for us to deliver OpenStack
Liberty as an alternative to users who might prefer the newer
codebase, once it's available. However, we would like to still support
the users who have a Kilo install at the moment, and would like to run
that as long as updates are available for Kilo itself.

Kilo to Liberty update process will require administrative actions,
for details see "Upgrade Notes" in upstream release notes
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ReleaseNotes/Liberty

The metadata rpm for OpenStack Liberty will be called
centos-release-openstack-liberty and users will be able to install it
once released. For more information on our progress with that effort,
please join the Cloud SIG meetings that are held weekly on
#centos-devel on irc.freenode.net or join us on the centos-devel
mailing list ( https://lists.centos.org/ ).

The updated metadata package, centos-release-openstack-kilo, is now
available on all CentOS mirrors, and can be installed by running
either 'yum update centos-release-openstack' or 'yum install
centos-release-openstack-kilo'

I am pleased to announce general availability of the September 2015
snapshot for CentOS Linux. This release includes CentOS Linux 7 iso
based install media, Generic Cloud images, Atomic Host, Docker
containers, Vagrant images, vendor hosted cloud images and live media.

CentOS Linux rolling builds are point in time snapshot media rebuild
from original release time, to include all updates pushed to
mirror.centos.org's repositories. This includes all security, bugfix,
enhancement and general updates for CentOS Linux. Machines installed
from this media will have all these updates pre-included and will look
no different when compared with machines installed with older media
that have been yum updated to the same point in time. All rpm/yum
repos remain on mirror.centos.org with no changes in either layout or
content.

just done some builds and had some success on PV instances locally, can

[CentOS-virt] kvm-qemu-ev in testing

2015-10-07 Thread Karanbir Singh
hi,

kvm-qemu-ev from virt7-kvm-common-release is now signed and available on
buildlogs.centos.org for testing, the corresponding release file is
available in the centos/7/extras/ location on buildlogs as well.

Once we have some testing, we can push and announce via
mirror.centos.org for wider adoption.
