oVirt Infra weekly update :: 2015-01-29

[David Caro]

Hi everyone!

This week:

== CI
* Will start pushing the new standards
  http://etherpad.ovirt.org/p/build-and-test-standards

* Started testing Zuul (local setup, with gerrit and jenkins is working)

* Started testing jeepyb for gerrit management
  https://github.com/openstack-infra/jeepyb

* Started automating slave template creation and update:
  So far we can create a machine from foreman, install it, update it, stop
  it and create a template (no checks are done to see if the template
  exists or anything). Patch not sent yet

* Investigating similar 'brother' projects to unite efforts:
  https://github.com/simon3z/virt-deploy
  https://github.com/simon3z/fabric-scripts

* Investigating a simple url shortener service for ovirt, successfully
  installed and deployed yourls in openshift, exploring it
  http://yourls.org

== Hosting
* Kernel updated on all el6 hosts

* Haveged installed on all the vms to avoid entropy exhaustion

* glibc security upgrade

* Started using fail2ban on some machines to avoid ssh brute-force attacks

* Connected the missing storage servers interfaces, and made sure we have
  redundant physical network


I'm investigating how to upgrade as painlessly as possible the hosts to fc20 so
we can use nested. And finishing the 3.4->3.5 upgrade of the others.
Will update when ready
