Help the team, starting as an apprentice.

Hello everyone, I'm José Donizetti a brazilian software developer. And got really interested on the oVirt project. Would like to learn more, and help the team. What do I do to be start as an apprentice? Thanks.

Hi Jose, the infra team is about maintaing the ovirt infrastrcture (wiki, servers, gerrit, jenkins, etc.) for code, best would be to choose one of the projects and join its list (engine-devel, vdsm, ovirt-node, etc.[1] usually, after setting up a devel environment, you would try one of the bugs flagged as an easyfix[2] good luck and welcome aboard, Itamar [1] http://www.ovirt.org/project/subprojects/ [2] http://tinyurl.com/6tsrrfk

Thanks for the offer! What can you do? Are you more interested in infrastructure (this is the infrastructure mailing list), learning about deploying oVirt, or actually getting down & dirty and into the code?

Thanks for the anwsers. Well, what I want is to get down & dirty into the code. But as I start reading the code, and testing it I can also support the infrastructure if there's anything to do. I can't be all day long involved but for sure I will put some hours everyday on the project. So if you guys think there are some "easier" tasks that I can help at the infrastructure of the project. Please let me know. Cheers, José Donizetti. On Tue, Jul 17, 2012 at 12:54 PM, Dave Neary <dneary@redhat.com> wrote:

Dave, I saw your email about helping with the wiki organization and videos. I don't have the knowledge to help with videos, but for sure I can help with the wiki organization. :) On Tue, Jul 17, 2012 at 2:15 PM, jdbjunior@gmail.com <jdbjunior@gmail.com> wrote:

I think the first step is to get oVirt up and running. You will need at least one node, at least one storage node (but it can be local storage), and one ovirt-engine. If you have the hardware at home, you can follow along the oVirt "getting started" guide at http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/File:OVirt-3.0-Installation_Guide-en-US.pdf The next step would be to get the source code and succeed in building it. The main components of oVirt in terms of source code are the engine web application and the VDSM component which enables remote control and monitoring on the nodes. You can get information about compiling these in the wiki: * http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Building_oVirt_engine * http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Vdsm_Developers Please do stop into the #ovirt IRC channel on OFTC if you have any questions!
