-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 We need to pick a new hosting solution for jenkins.ovirt.org. One idea is for us to throw out some favorite hosting providers here, and see if we can sort out what would be a good solution. Other ideas have been floated. Ideally, we'll get more hardware in the future via some hosting that Red Hat is working on providing for projects. In the meantime ... Do any other sponsoring organizations have resources we can look in to? Once we pick something, we can move it all fairly quickly, I think. Can we target the end of this week? Perhaps, if we don't run in to any complications ... - - Karsten - -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFQF+9b2ZIOBq0ODEERAgztAKCKGv3WgUlIpOQ3AvgnY7V+r42C0ACffdb7 CA0i4zoGWeWGS52n3tW/SLk= =xKs6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Security issues when running gerrit patches on jenkins

by Eyal Edri

Hi, Following last infra meeting, i want to open for discussion the security issues that may arise if we allow Jenkins to run jobs (i.e any code) with every gerrit patch. The problem: In theory, any user that is registered to gerrit might send a patch to any ovirt project. That code might contain malicious code, malware, harmfull or just not-related ovirt code that he wants to use our resources for it. Even though we use limited sudo on hosts, we can't be sure an exploit will be used against one of the jenkins slaves. The proposed solutions: - black-listing authors (published on ovirt.org?) - white-listing authors (published on ovirt.org?) - auto approve patch via comparing to lastest commits - check if author recent patches were approved in the past? adding dan since he raised this issue when we wanted to add vdsm gerrit tests. thoughts? Eyal.

how to get files from jenkins.ovirt.org to www.ovirt.org

by Eyal Edri

Hi, after looking into the process and testing it via jenkins.ovirt.info, here is my proposal: 1. Nightly job [1] will collect rpms from all ovirt projects (other jenkins jobs that build rpms per commit). 1.1 all files will be kept in a flat dir under $WORKSPCE/rpms 1.2 using 'publish over ssh' [2] plugin the job will then copy files to their destination according to their names. [3] for e.g 'ovirt-engine-3.1.0-3.fc17.noarch.rpm' ==> ovirt.org/var/www/html/releases/nightly/rpm/Fedora/17/noarch 'ovirt-engine-3.1.0-3.fc17.src.rpm' ==> ovirt.org/var/www/html/releases/nightly/rpm/Fedora/17/src 'ovirt-engine-3.1.0-3.bz2' ==> ovirt.org/var/www/html/releases/nightly/src' 1.3 publish ssh plugin can execute a command after its done copying the file, so all is left is to run 'createrepo' on the relevant dirs. [4] 2. a separate cron cleaning script needs to run on ovirt.org to delete old rpms and run createrepo. +1 for pushing this forward or comments? Eyal. [1] http://jenkins.ovirt.org/view/rpms/job/publish_ovirt_rpms_nightly/, this job currently works only for fedora17 rpms (that's what we have now). we'll need to improve it to be more generic (maybe as a matrix job) or duplicate it for each opertating system. [2] https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Publish+Over+SSH+Plugin, using pub/private key with user jenkins to connect [3] jenkins user will need r/q permissions to the nightly folder [4] will need sudo access for it.

Outage :: www.ovirt.org :: 2012-07-13 2300 to 2330 UTC (7 pm EDT/4 pm PDT)

by Karsten 'quaid' Wade

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm back with the rescheduled outage for the www.ovirt.org server. We're filling up the disk on www.ovirt.org, which is expected since it's only 10 GB. I'm going to add 15 GB, which requires a reboot. Prior to the reboot I'll come on IRC and make sure everyone is prepared. The restart should only take a few minutes. The hour window is to give me time to start and finish or rollback if there is a problem. If anyone has done this before on Linode and wants to offer suggestions or hold my hand :) let me know. == When == 2300 to 2330 UTC date -d "2012-07-13 2300 UTC" == Affected services == lists.ovirt.org www.ovirt.org/wiki www.ovirt.org/.* ovirtbot (IRC bot) - -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFP/3lg2ZIOBq0ODEERAlP4AJ4hbvBeUNcuoDe0PYPOPjauqc6BZwCdFLGm 3nkaZ1xffyW0T7w4nz7RH8Y= =2zx3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Change notice :: cronjobs on linode01.ovirt.org

by Karsten 'quaid' Wade

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I was adding a cronjob to archive Apache logs ... one of those things I suddenly realized I wished I'd done six months ago ... and I noticed that the root crontab I wrote assumed the quiet time of the day would be Midnight Eastern timezone. I checked the graphs on linode.com and found our low time is 20:00 Eastern (8 pm)/Midnight UTC, rising to a peak at 14:00 UTC, then quickly back down toward 00:00. Of course, there are lots of other peaks during the day; I'm thinking more of the sustained baseline. (Refer to the attached usage graphs for the last 24 hours.) I switched the cronjobs to start at Midnight UTC, and then run over the course of an hour with long spaces in between. Just seemed like the right thing to do, so I did it; same with notifying, being it's a relatively minor change that couldn't disrupt any services. - - Karsten # Give root word about the backup MAILTO=root # # Run five minutes after 8 pm Eastern/Midnight UTC at quietest time, every day 5 20 * * * /root/bin/wordpress-backup.sh # Run ten minutes after 8 pm Eastern/Midnight UTC at quietest time, every day 10 20 * * * /root/bin/mediawiki-backup.sh # Run thirty minutes after 8 pm Eastern/Midnight UTC every day, to clean out older than 7 days 30 20 * * * /root/bin/backup-cleanup.sh # Run forty-five minutes after 8 pm Eastern/Midnight UTC every day, to track subscriber trends 45 20 * * * /root/bin/mailman-subscriber-count.sh # Run fifty-five minutes after 8 pm Eastern/Midnight UTC every day, to archve Apache logs 55 20 * * * /root/bin/httpd_log_backup.sh ~ - -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFQEx+P2ZIOBq0ODEERAvJZAKDOk0WYGIGYVsp8DtxHylQpxGCnBgCdElkX QJsx1MStANWUqN6OgDkSYBE= =ph5Q -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
