Thanks for going through them and the bugs! 16:17:00 #topic Ubuntu Server Team Events 16:17:01 as you state postpone anything that ain't going to happen in the next few days 16:17:17 openstack design summit in portland next week 16:17:22 LOADS of people going 16:17:29 +1! 16:17:49 Any other events? 16:18:20 #topic Weekly Updates & Questions for the QA Team (plars) 16:18:26 hi 16:18:31 plars: hello! Any updates from you? Or does anyone have any questions for plars? 16:18:35 So I have a couple of things 16:18:41 mostly on the subject of iso testing 16:18:51 I tried to run the iscsi tests for raring beta 16:18:58 and got the unauth mode to pass on one of them 16:19:19 but for all the rest, it hung for me on reboot and I was unable to complete the tests 16:19:20 plars, do you use my helper scripts? 16:19:25 jamespage: yes 16:19:46 more than likely bugs then 16:19:49 jamespage: I'm *fairly* certain I'm running them correctly, but couldn't see an easy way to debug anything past "it doesn't boot" 16:19:53 I'll take a quick run through 16:19:58 I was wondering if I could get some help with that 16:20:04 thanks 16:20:14 On the subject of MAAS tests: 16:20:19 http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases/1461/info 16:20:19 http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases/1462/info 16:20:19 http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases/1463/info 16:20:47 I was able to run through the first one mostly - though either I was not finding some options in MAAS (possible since I've not used it much before) or the tests need a lot of updating 16:21:17 Is there a MAAS expert on the team that could help review the tests and make sure they are valid for what's currently in raring? 16:21:29 roaksoax, please could you help plars out this this? 16:21:47 jamespage: definitely, it was on my todo for this week 16:22:04 Finally, there's a whole lot of ec2 tests on http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com Can someone see that those are attempted when we get to the release candidate? 16:22:07 roaksoax, great 16:22:18 I'd like to get the server stuff as close to 100% covered as possible for the raring release 16:22:29 this would be the week leading up to April 25 16:22:36 plars, sure - utlemming normally deals with the ec2 testing 16:22:42 awesome 16:22:44 that's all I have 16:23:08 Thanks roaksoax and jamespage for helping plars with QA. 16:23:09 plars: that tests are running 16:23:17 jamespage: I'll also try the iscsi tests again on todays image, so if you get something different from me then we'll know it must be something on my end 16:23:18 plars: they are on the build server jenkins instance 16:23:30 plars: but IS has yet to enable pushing them to the public instance 16:23:37 plars: I'll get with you on the EC2 testing 16:23:39 utlemming, do we need to disable them in the old QA setup? 16:23:39 utlemming: fair enough 16:23:47 utlemming: ok, sounds good 16:23:50 Thanks utlemming! 16:24:01 #topic Weekly Updates & Questions for the Kernel Team (smb) 16:24:04 Nothing to report this week (nothing I can remember at least ;-P). Would there be questions? 16:24:23 Thanks smb. Does anyone have any questions? 16:24:45 smb, do you know if there are plans 16:24:55 there are many 16:24:56 smb, to provide the raring 3.8 kernel on precise 16:25:02 like with did with 3.5? 16:25:23 jamespage, Yes I afaik that is the plan 16:25:47 smb, hmm - OK - I think we need to consider what we do with the important DKMS packages for server 16:26:09 I'd like to table that we look at upgrading things like openvswitch to the latest releases that support 3.8 16:26:31 I'm concerned that we are going to get into cherry pick hell trying to keep up with kernels every 6 months 16:26:48 i.e. openvswitch would bump to 1.9.0 in 12.04 for example 16:27:32 jamespage, that might be simpler to keep up with than just fixing the build issues. openvswitch might be more affected there than other dkms packages 16:28:22 iscsi_target could be another one to look for, though the block layer changes a little slower imo 16:28:25 smb, OK - I'll draw up a list an review/propose where we might go next then :-) 16:28:31 jamespage, ack 16:28:42 OK. Thanks smb! 16:28:46 #topic Weekly Updates & Questions regarding Ubuntu ARM Server (rbasak) 16:28:52 smb, it needed an update for raring :-) 16:29:06 jamespage, slower not not... :-P 16:29:26 * jamespage stops hijacking rbasaks session 16:29:44 I have no updates. I'd like to just mention though that my mongodb patch is just a workaround to make it work. I need to look again at actually making it performant - I suspect I destroyed ARM performance in my alignment workaround. 16:29:46 Any questions for me? 16:30:17 I guess not. 16:30:20 #topic Open Discussion 16:30:47 I had one question. Are we tracking outstanding merges to make sure that we don't ship (or are at least aware of) packages that are older than Debian? 16:31:13 I did exim4, and have puppet upload pending review, both of which picked up bugfixes from Debian 16:34:36 I've not been that hot on it lately 16:34:49 its hard to track due to the mixture of sources from unstable and experimental 16:35:40 I wondered if we should keep a list of what Debian version of a package we're happy with for each package 16:36:02 Then it might be easier to track it, and for a Debian revision we've opted not to merge, we won't be bothered by it. 16:36:07 Anyway, just a thought for next cycle maybe. 16:36:13 Any other items for open discussion anyone? 16:36:40 #topic Announce next meeting date and time 16:36:47 The next meeting will be at Tue, 16 Apr 2013 16:00:00 +0000. The chair will be yolanda. 16:36:50 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology)
