Hello, Q3 is nice (IPv6, opening up OpenStack API and investigating Horizon). I would suggest: - a self-service monitoring system. We had a nagios at some point but I never figured out how to use it. - root emails sent to a mailing list with automatic subscription of project admins to it. - revamping Ganglia. I thought I would have time to handle it but definitely do not :-( - easy option to have a per project salt master. That really ease the maintenance tasks. - optional per project puppetmaster with the ability to merge change via Gerrit. That could potentially be done by having a per project module in a standalone git repo which would be fetched along the operations/puppet.git repo. No more having to set a puppetmaster self or beg ops for merge. - DNS split horizon! Whenever requesting a DNS entry pointing to a labs public IP address, NAT prevents us from reaching the instance being it. Having DNS to yield back the private IP whenever it is queried from labs would solve it. Brandon Black found out last week that dnsmasq allow such aliasing: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/138017/ we could extract the public/private IP mapping from openstack. I might have other crazy ideas. Maybe I should fill them in Bugzilla instead of proposing to clutter the goals page? :-] -- Antoine "hashar" Musso _______________________________________________ Labs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/labs-l
