SALI consists of:
 * SALI server --> could be an alternative for system imager server.  Does a 
lot things automatically (rsync/bittorrent)
 * SALI kernel/initrd is more up to date then system imager kernel/initrd. The 
only problem for now is that the autoinstall scripts that are made by 
systemconfigurator does not work anymore because we removed some functions that 
are removed in SALI, we could be made available again and ported to the new 
SALI functions. so we are backwards compatible.  Else we have to maintain two 
versions of kernel/initrd.  That is a waste of time.

2012-12-18 Thread Brian Elliott Finley

Bas,

No problem.  I actually went through a dry run with svn2git yesterday. ;-)
I'll take care of the initial import.

The Plan:
* Yes, we'll pull all of SystemImager into github.
* How do you recommend that we incorporate SALI?

  It could be done as:
  - a branch
  - a fork (git style)
  - a branch with the intent to merge
(would need more discussion on this one -- just want to maintain
general applicability)


Cheers, -Brian

2012-12-18 Thread Bas van der Vlies

Brian,

 I am a but swamped at the moment and the holiday season is nearby ;-). There 
are tools that convert from sourceforge to github:
   * https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git#readme

 What is the plan:
   * convert systemimager svn (all) to github. We have a lot of versions, tags 
and branches
   * Where will SALI fit in. There are  a lot of changes in the SALI release. 
Do we replace the kernelinitrd build process? In SALI  we also replaced the 
system imager server software.

regards

You guys have been added!

If you can help by doing the initial import of SystemImager from 
SourceForge SVN, that would be great.  Let me know if you need anything 
from me.

Dennis,

That sounds like a good path forward.  Please send me github account names
for you and Bas, and I'll add you to the SystemImager project.

Hi Brian,

Great news to make SALI into SystemImager. It's better for both teams to join 
forces because we want to accomplish the same goal.

Currently we started the development of version 1.6 and it's far from finished. 
So as initial import to the git we can use the branch 1.5.

And probally the easiest way to migrate our source code to the SystemImager git 
repo is to fork your repo. From there we can import our branch 1.5 to the 
forked git repo. And finally send you a pull request?

2012-11-27 Thread Brian Elliott Finley

I think a move to github would be a fine idea.

As for the SystemConfigurator functionality, I'd like to use
theSystemImager post-script functionality.
It will allow us to
  - include simple scripts upstream, that could be used as-is for simple and
common cases
  - these simple scripts could be easily customized by site admins, without
having to know SystemImager internals
  - a simple script could be used to invoke puppet, chef, or SSM (Simple
State Manager - http://download.systemimager.org/pub/ssm/README)

Re: [sisuite-users] new centos-6.3 RPMS

2012-11-26 Thread Bas van der Vlies

Brian,

  The SALI vork was nescessary to support modern hardware. Your are right you 
can better have one source.  SALI has implemented a new kernel/initrd and some 
shell functions, e.g. one for easy disk partition. We also replaced the system 
imager-server software.

Currently  we do not have a tool like systemconfigurator or automatically 
generate installation scripts.  So we can definitely benefit from co-operation. 
 My thought for replacing systemconfigurator are with shell commands or a 
system maintenance tool like CFengine, puppet , chef ,….

Can we move the code to github.com. I think it easier to 
contribute and better suited if more people are involved.

regards

Hi Brian,

Maybe Git Hub would be better ?
If you consider that systemconfigurator can be zapped for new versions
so ok, would be happy to help in perl.

Thx Olivier!

I did not try the postscripts yet, actually I did not realize them until 
you told me :) I found them in another mail thread, will try them and let 
you know if they work for me.

BTW, I found the new initrd.img generated by SI 4.2.0 is much bigger than 
the one generated by SI 4.0.2, then is there any recommended ramdisk_size 
and tmpfs_size for the kernel parameters? where can I find the change 
lists or release notes so I can know what's actually updated from 4.0.2 to 
4.2.0?

I'm new for this project, what's SALI? is it another cloning tool?

Thx.
Jing.

The missing piece for SALI is systemconfigurator. we didn't  port it and our
perl knowledge is not that good. so an up to date systemconfigurator with
SALI is an good combination.

Hi,

I've successfully deployed my oscar images with those rpms.
But I needed some post install scripts in order to have the grub bootloader
installed.
I've posted the postinstall script as well did you used them?

Can you post a description of the problem you encountered? I must admit I
feel a little bit alone and feedback is welcome.

I'd also be very happy if a developper could revew my patches and if ok
commit them to the svn.

Cheers,
