RFC: oVirt NetApp workshop Call for Content
by Dave Neary
Hi all,
I just put a draft call for content in a new page for the NetApp
workshop on the wiki: http://www.ovirt.org/NetApp_Workshop_January_2013
The call for contents is basically a copy of the topic list from the KVM
Forum/oVirt Workshop in Barcelona. Some points to note:
* I set the deadline close, so that we could notify speakers before the
holidays, and allow people coming from further away to organise travel
arrangements. Is 2 weeks for a Call for Content enough?
* We will re-use the workshop-pc mailing list for proposals and
discussion. There was an open discussion point about what our
subscription and posting policy should be for the list - I suggest that
non-members may post to the list, and anyone can subscribe.
I would like to actively reach out to some oVirt users and partners to
ensure that we have a diverse set of content for the conference - I
would expecially like to hear some interesting case studies about the
ways that oVirt is being used!
Can I get some comments on this quickly, please? If it is acceptable, I
would like to push it more widely this evening.
Thanks,
Dave.
Call for Content
We are actively seeking speakers for this workshop. We are interested in
talks in the following areas:
* Case studies of oVirt deployments
* Using oVirt effectively
* oVirt Project Roadmaps

etc.
* Subjects: network, storage, vm life cycle, scheduling & sla,
gluster, etc.
* Packaging, installation and distributions

Please submit talk proposals for review by sending a message to

acceptance by Friday, 21 December 2012.

Wiki and Mailing Lists Outage -- 2012-11-14
by Mike Burns
We experienced an outage today in both the wiki and the mailing lists.
* Wiki content was available throughout the outage, but attempts to
login or edit received an error message about requiring cookies to be
enabled.
* All mails to the mailing list failed to show up on the lists, but
also did not return rejection messages.
Cause:
This was caused by an "Out of Space" error on the host running both of
these services. A temporary workaround was put in place to get both
services up and running again.
Action Taken:
Remove the oldest gerrit backup (600MB)
Remove some older non-functional ovirt-node-iso images and rpms from the
releases (source remains there)
Long term solution:
Migrating these services away from a single host onto hosted solutions
(OpenShift, AlterWay).
Current Situation:
Wiki is back up and running, login works as expected
Lists are processing the backlog of emails since the outage began.
At this time, it does not appear that any mail was lost due to the
outage.
Thanks for the patience and understanding
