As this is friday and I assumed most of the Tel Aviv office was not working, i hope this kept the disruption to a minimum. However, if something is broken, please tell it so we can fix. This also got me thinking. In order to bring a bit more order, what about having a fixed schedule for upgrade ? In my previous position, we were doing that once per month ( except during end of quarter freeze ), with mandatory reboot ( cause if something do not boot, you want to know it when you have a planned outage, not when everyone is running around updating stuff ). Fedora has a rather complex procedure to decide what to upgrade, hilighted on http://infrastructure.fedoraproject.org/infra/docs/massupgrade.txt So we could adopt a schedule ( once per month, unless there is something critical, in which case we do it ASAP, with warning on the list and irc ).=20 The schedule should of course take in account "business need", which is "release schedule of ovirt". So what about "first friday of the month, unless exception" ? And by update, i mean "yum upgrade -y". Cleaning the list of repo on various servers is also IMHO another task to discuss, to make sure the task can be safely executed. ( having something like mcollective/ansible/func is also needed, but that's more a convenience than a requirement at this stage ). --=20 Michael Scherer Open Source and Standards, Sysadmin --=-rcFUPN9yATM22D984nr5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJTkaYoAAoJEE89Wa+PrSK9rrcQAI7MICLBqIhmnTJQC8eW2Wnq h6UcClJxH5E0rJNT6LFYRfmOh6+Y8CPASevTsPFTUZFe1Eby6dwVYMeRINieVHRK y5/kgFXlpPVm+W+GdwwyHqNqy/zjZZXaJdOqczUiDerK57yA5IJMMGbvqGDIQH5c sJOBtL8/4D7lPZCrBd9rsw4Td6yY+mrmHjhaQfKojvHXn9ZKwjmFCRvi4eJ4/+04 n7w6nywQHDNzwaNS17wmWQyMkfOGFwdZCYxzi4I6kYtCmbgNF5iaYgt6GLpaZ24W qpNEp8RST1JpknzfVoZ9ASL5cNeP/gqaFX/1rK6AOCMIr23qghaz2Ku6rYhUwL/O jKHp+HOYs+o4xiIbMBKMCj9D4HE08xveOuLxKMkrENrL0V3FrRTZu9kCDxeMUorc cL/lG/oWEsEvJVbx4VCKYssdX2qXK57UaDCk2KT6oeUqnWcvYR9KgYhfDpUhjN2T rOD5uM9VhbD0LgVdom8iBpRVH8yLsawp0WWC/uSte0yxFnHG60IjHwl/nDC/teF8 YE9N5Hy/lAOWI9N43OB6ppAB8SmsPLendk3VG14nHOkmdWHGadw3i9A87VP45bZl NRr8H7miqTDFdp+v6pmrzvzP6L9pCGGYHoSI3pfF9CZDYCwgQ57gA314iyeDHrjK a8bpf5lAIELnWlmD3s2E =1/P5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-rcFUPN9yATM22D984nr5--
