Move archive ovirt ovirt-devel@redhat.com to ovirt.org
by Mike Burns 11 Feb '12

11 Feb '12

Can we move the archives from ovirt-devel(a)redhat.com to ovirt.org? The list is mostly shut down, but we still get 1-2 subscription attempts/emails there a week. The people are pointed to the right place, but it would be best to move the archives and drop the list completely. Thanks Mike

New gerrit repo needed
by Mike Burns 09 Feb '12

09 Feb '12

Hi, Can I get a new gerrit repo added for ovirt-node-iso? An empty repo should be fine initially. The purpose of this repo is to package the ovirt-node iso image in an rpm for delivery. Ideally, this could be done as a sub-package of ovirt-node, but there is a chicken and egg problem. You need the ovirt-node rpm in order to generate the iso which you need to build the ovirt-node-iso rpm. We also need to keep the generation of the ovirt-node rpm and the iso image in separate steps so we could create multiple images from a single ovirt-node rpm. This would allow something like an update to a package that isn't ovirt-node to be included. For example, if vdsm had a critical update, we need to be able to regenerate the ovirt-node iso image without have to rebuild the ovirt-node rpm. Thanks Mike

how /community-activity page and RSS feeds work
by Karsten 'quaid' Wade 03 Feb '12

03 Feb '12

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I need to dump this here for now; we can get it in to a [[Category:Infrastructure documentation]] wiki page soon enough. Jason and I were working on updating Wordpress (*whew*) from a buggy version, updating the theme, and solving a problem I'd been worried about - the hacks we did to the Coraline theme. Jason put together a parent/child theme that Wordpress uses to make it easy to carry customizations to a theme. About the activity feed and page. There are two parts: 1. The sidebar that is shown on the front-page is a Yahoo! Pipes bundle pulled in with an RSS Feed widget. The Pipes bundle is "the latest from" all of the feeds comprising /community-activity. 2. The /community-activity page is a Wordpress hack that works like this: * There is a widget called "First Footer Widget Area" with an associated CSS class (iirc). I populated this area with a number of RSS Feed widgets that take the direct RSS from the wiki's latest changes and gerrit.ovirt.org activity for each project. * By default this footer widget appears in the footer of every page using the Default template. I created a new template by copying full-width-page.php to full-width-page-with-RSS.php. Then I copied the parts from sidebar-footer.php that call in the "First Footer..." content, putting that in to full-width-page-with-rss.php. Then I commented those sections out of sidebar-footer.php, which effectively remove them from the Default template. * The page 'community-activity' uses the "Full-width, no sidebar, RSS feeds" template (aka full-widht-page-with-RSS.php). * Now that we have the new child-theme arrangement, I copied the hacked PHP files in to coraline-ovirt/. - From here, do we just need to check the customizations against updates in Coraline? So we might need to port hacks to the updated theme if the files we have don't drop-in-and-just-work? - - Karsten - -- name: Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Community Architect team: Red Hat Community Architecture & Leadership uri: http://communityleadershipteam.org http://TheOpenSourceWay.org gpg: AD0E0C41 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFPKxcD2ZIOBq0ODEERAv8JAKCbEAy6YTbLVAsYRdVA3iBEcTF/ewCg41cr wAbe42iTFwOWUQs1MF3yiqw= =ifVn -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

openid on the wiki?
by Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

Hello, Given gerrit already works with openid I was wondering if the wiki could support the same. It seems there is an extension[1], and it also seems it's packaged for fedora[2]. Has anyone looked into this and would it be a desirable addition? [1]: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:OpenID [2]: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=5922

ovirt.org / security mailing lists

Hi Karsten, we have a wiki page describing ovirt.org security mailing lists [1], but I think we should at least mention the security mailing lists and how we handle security issues on our community page [2]. [1] http://ovirt.org/wiki/Security [2] http://www.ovirt.org/project/community/ In the long run, we could also create dedicated security related page referenced from the main menu/front page. Would that be possible? We want security bugs to be sent to security mailing lists, not to the development mailing lists. Thanks, -- Petr Matousek / Red Hat Security Response Team

git:// on gerrit
by Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden 15 Jan '12

15 Jan '12

Hello, Yesterday xTs_w pointed out on IRC that git:// is no longer working. Was there a specific reason to disable this? Note that many guides still use this URL. Another tip to use git:// for fetching and git+ssh:// for pushing. Add the following to ~/.gitconfig: [url "git://github.com/"] insteadOf = "gh:" [url "git(a)github.com:"] pushInsteadOf = "gh:" then you can use git clone gh:user/repo. You could use something similar for ovirt: [url "git://gerrit.ovirt.org/"] insteadOf = "ovirt:" [url "gerrit.ovirt.org:"] pushInsteadOf = "ovirt:" Then git clone ovirt:ovirt-engine should work. Promoting this can also simplify instructions. With kind regards, Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden

Tagline on ovirt.org does not communicate a clear and simple message
by Stefan Hajnoczi 06 Jan '12

06 Jan '12

Hi, The tagline on ovirt.org is long and unclear: "Complete and Comprehensive Open Source Infrastructure and Management Virtualization Platform for the Data Center". "Complete and Comprehensive" is almost a tautology. "Infrastructure and Management Virtualization Platform" does not make sense, I'm not sure what a "Management Virtualization Platform" is. Something shorter would communicate what ovirt.org is about better. This tagline is used in the <h2> and <title> (shortened). It's important because this is how visitors learn what oVirt is and whether to read more. How about shortening it to, "Complete Open Source Virtualization Platform for the Data Center"? Thanks to mburns on #ovirt for directing me to infra(a)ovirt.org and board(a)ovirt.org. Stefan

moving discussion to infra list - is there a way to disable the discussion tabs on the wikis if people prefer mailing lists to discuss item to avoid confusing people?

If we do not want to use the discussion tabs, is there a way to get rid of them so we don't have people posting comments there?

Gerrit backup
by Karsten 'quaid' Wade 12 Dec '11

12 Dec '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I did a first pass at creating a backup process for gerrit.ovirt.org: http://ovirt.org/wiki/Gerrit_backup Right now it uses rsync on /usr/local/src/git to a remote directory at ovirt.org:/home/gerrit-backup/gerrit.ovirt.org-src-backup/src/ . So that's my hacky process and bash script to start. Very open to other ideas. One I'm not clear on is what we really need backed up from gerrit.ovirt.org? I'd like us to get /etc in a private git repo, maybe we just do that as a single repo that we distribute across all hosts' /root directories? Should we also be using git for backing up the git repo - so have gerrit-backup on the remote host pull changes instead of pushing a directory structure via rsync? Itamar mentions that we need to backup the Gerrit DB, which I'll work on next. I reckon that's a combination of a dump of the database and rsyncing the results to the remote host? - - Karsten - -- name: Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Community Architect team: Red Hat Community Architecture & Leadership uri: http://communityleadershipteam.org http://TheOpenSourceWay.org gpg: AD0E0C41 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFO344x2ZIOBq0ODEERAu3TAKDDLtt5jr/a78mMLnW8T0eqSVx1fQCgi2c1 7lTFWA0VPPtuuIkokqk+JbI= =xt+L -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
