Meeting Agenda Item: Introduction Paul Maconi
by Paul Maconi 26 Apr '24

26 Apr '24

Hello everyone! My name is Paul Maconi, aka @aggraxis on matrix, across the FAS, and a bunch of other places. I attended the meeting earlier today. Thank you again for the warm welcome. I'm currently employed by a defense contractor providing support in the US. I lead the contractor team supporting the customer organization, and I serve as one of the senior architects for their test enclaves. We work with RHEL (7, 8, and 9) as well as Windows and a little bit of Ubuntu. I have experience working with NetApp storage arrays and VMware virtualization products in the workplace. At home I have a small lab where I just converted everything over to Proxmox as an educational/ fun exercise. I'm not a strong programmer. I took C, C++, and Java in college some 20+ years ago, but I couldn't see myself making that kind of professional life for myself at the time. I did find an interest in Python after I started experimenting with Ansible in the workplace. I *love* writing Ansible playbooks, and running through a bunch of the self-paced materials over at pybit.es was a lot of fun for me. So I know enough Python to be dangerous, but I can't write you the next gee whiz application from scratch. I have a working knowledge of Powershell as well, but I'm hoping we won't need that here. I currently hold a CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner (CASP+) certification, mostly because my job requires it. I spend a lot of time assessing and remediating security controls as part of my work life, which is the initial driver for learning Ansible at the time. I also spent 7 years working as a Cisco Certified Network Administrator (CCNA) back in the early 2000s, so I do have a background slinging packets. Honestly, I'm just a computer nerd who grew up to be a computer nerd. I love learning things and solving problems. I will say that I was a little intimidated at first by the outstanding issues. Even some of the Eaxyfix items looked kind of wild from the newcomer point of view. Still, I'm excited for the opportunity to come learn, grow, and create with you all.

Fedora 40 Final Freeze now in effect!
by Kevin Fenzi 24 Apr '24

24 Apr '24

Greetings. we are now in the infrastructure freeze leading up to the Fedora 40 Final release. This is a final release freeze. We do this to ensure that our infrastructure is stable and ready to release Fedora 40 when it's available. You can see a list of hosts that do not freeze by checking out the ansible repo and running the freezelist script: git clone https://infrastructure.fedoraproject.org/infra/ansible.git ansible/scripts/freezelist -i inventory Any hosts listed as freezes is frozen until 2024-04-16 (or later if release slips). Frozen hosts should have no changes made to them without a sign-off on the change from at least 2 sysadmin-main or rel-eng members, along with (in most cases) a patch of the exact change to be made to this list and/or a pull-request to the infra/ansible repo. Thanks, kevin

Freeze break request: proxy update to point badges.fp.o at Openshift
by Aurélien Bompard 22 Apr '24

22 Apr '24

Hey folks, With Ryan we have deployed the refreshed badges stack in prod openshift, as the badges components are not frozen. However, the proxies are, and we need to update them to point at openshift instead of VMs. I'll run the proxies playbook with the "-t badges" argument, that should only update the badges pieces. WDYT? A.

Freeze break request: koji update on builders
by Kevin Fenzi 19 Apr '24

19 Apr '24

In the run up to f40 final we were using a koji with a patch to _not_ enable the builroot repo when making containers via kiwi plugin. This was to fix the fact that pulling from the buildroot repo pulls unsigned rpms, making all the rpms installed in the container unsigned. Foolishly, I pulled a newer/expansion of that patch from upstream in in the last round of updates, but something in it's defaults/logic causes it to not disable the buildroot repo, and again containers have unsigned rpms. ;( So, what I would like to do is go back to the previous patch we had that just has the 'only enable buildroot when no repos are passed' patch. Ideally we would do this today so the last f40 nightly would be right. If not tho, we could land it anytime and then the nightly container builds would be fixed. Can I get +1s for this plan? Thanks, kevin

Freeze break request: redirect labs.fp-o to the new labs website
by darknao 18 Apr '24

18 Apr '24

Hi o/ I would like to retire the old labs.fedoraproject.org website and redirect it to the new one on the main site at https://fedoraproject.org/labs/ If possible, the redirect would be enabled on F40 release day so we don't need to update the old site for F40. PR: https://pagure.io/fedora-infra/ansible/pull-request/1968 Any +1s? -darknao

Freeze break request: update koji package on builders
by Kevin Fenzi 09 Apr '24

09 Apr '24

When I did the updates before final freeze, I missed updating the builders with the latest koji package from the f39-infra tag. At the time for some reason I thought it didn't matter, because the patches were all hub related, but turns out thats not the case. 2 of the patches affect builders: * One adding --debug to kiwi builds so we can see whats going on. * One changing it so kiwi build tasks don't use the koji buildroot for packages. When they do this they get unsigned packages and it shows up in the containers made with kiwi. So, I'd like to update all the builders to the latest f39-infra koji package with these patches and restart kojid on them. +1s? kevin
