while this would be nice... we don't even have our "home turf" vm's all set up yet. 1. we need to drop lvm. qcow+file images. it just makes migrating vms elsehwere a lot harder if you put them on lvm requiring extra levels of special setup to use them. 2. nfs homedirs are a no-go. homedirs must/should be local to the vm fs image. making them nfs makes them non-portable. the whole POINT of using qemu/kvm in the first place is, that if we get overloaded, or if e5 goes down, or whatever we can TRIVALLY just move any vm over to osuosl's vm cluster system and re-point dns and presto... it works. this is WHY we want a SIMPLE setup. not complex. SIMPLE. 3. firewall needs to go - NAT is enough. firewall just wastes peoples time debugging services. in all the years e1/e2 have been up we have nver needed or uses a fw. if someone "breaks in" and then can "get data out"... WHO CARES... we arent hiding secret data! this is not a paranoid corporate system. if they broke in and start modifying our git repos and then people download src with trojans in it.. thats bad.. but a fw wont stop that... and tbh... we havent had this problem before (i know there is a 1st time), and if we do. thats WHY we have vm filesystem images and qcoq deltas/backups we can just pull out of cold storage. with qcow we can keep fs DELTAS offline "at home" trivially by just scping a qcow snapshot (or series) and simply upload any compromised one and restart from there. enough devs have home storage to keep enough of these images copied and safe in case this happens. :) > Hi, > > For e5 buildbot/whatever we will need different OS and architecture to > test.
