Automatic Network Configuration in Cloud with NetworkManager (nm-cloud-setup)
by Thomas Haller 04 Dec '19

04 Dec '19

Hello, We (NetworkManager) are working on a tool that should help configuring NetworkManager in cloud. This is for example for configuring the secondary IP addresses on AWS/EC2 ([1], [2]) [1] https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/ec2-centos-rhel-seco… [2] https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/ec2-ubuntu-secondary… It's inspired by and serves a similar purpose as SuSE's cloud-netconfig ([3], [4]) and ec2-net-utils package on Amazon Linux ([5]). [3] https://www.suse.com/c/multi-nic-cloud-netconfig-ec2-azure/ [4] https://github.com/SUSE-Enceladus/cloud-netconfig [5] https://github.com/aws/ec2-net-utils The tool can be triggered via a systemd.timer and/or a NetworkManager dispatcher scripts. Then it fetches meta data from the Instance Metadata Service (thereby detecting whether it runs in a cloud environment). Finally it configures the networking using NetworkManager. Currently it only supports EC2 and IPv4. But if the tool shows to be useful, it could be extended to also support other cloud providers (Azure). There is a merge request on review ([6], [7]). There is a bit of a hurry to get this merged, because it should make the cut for the next NetworkManager release. So, I will merge it soon to master, albeit still in an experimental state. [6] https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/merge_requests… [7] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1642461 The plan is that cloud images could install and enable the tool, so you boot a (Fedora) image and networking would just work. Is there interrest in something like this? Any comments, questions? best, Thomas

rawhide vagrant box will not start
by Pavel Březina 03 Dec '19

I'm trying to run rawhide vagrant box from [1] but rawhide composes do not work correctly (vagrant up gets stuck) since August. I opened https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1771446 against kernel but I've been told fedora-cloud maintains those images so I'm reaching you here.

Is there already a web page to retrieve them ? > Hi Normand, Thank you for bringing this up. You have indeed pointed out a gap in what we're currently delivering with Fedora CoreOS preview and what we were delivering with Atomic Host. The good news is that we have done enablement work to allow for Fedora CoreOS to be run on other platforms. The bad news is that we don't currently run our build infrastructure in an environment that has other architectures available. So while you can build it yourself today, there is currently no where to download it from the Fedora website. I have added Jakub Cajka who was working on getting some space to host unofficial builds of Fedora CoreOS for other architectures for now. I'll also link you to our open issues where we're working through our strategy for delivering multi-arch FCOS: - https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/262 - https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/8370 - Dusty

Fedora Atomic Host Nearing End Of Life
by Dusty Mabe 21 Nov '19

21 Nov '19

This content also exists at: https://www.projectatomic.io/blog/2019/11/fedora-atomic-host-nearing-eol/ Last year we [introduced the plans for Fedora CoreOS] [1] including that Fedora CoreOS would be the successor to Fedora Atomic Host and Container Linux (from CoreOS Inc.). As part of that succession plan we decided that Fedora 29 Atomic Host would be the last stream of Fedora Atomic Host to be released. Fedora 29 Atomic Host has served us well, but with Fedora 29 End of Life coming soon [2], so will the last release of Fedora 29 Atomic Host. The next release of Fedora 29 Atomic Host (in the next few weeks) will be the last two-week release. It will contain all of the latest content from Fedora 29. After that release, Fedora 29, and Fedora 29 Atomic Host will no longer receive any updates. Please try out the Fedora CoreOS preview to help us get it towards stable. Documentation and download links can be found at https://getfedora.org/coreos/ The Atomic Host Team [1] https://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-coreos/ [2] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org…

Validation testing enhancement: AMI information
by Adam Williamson 14 Nov '19

14 Nov '19

Hey folks! So as part of the 'xen -> ec2' criteria migration, I noticed that it's not really easy to find the appropriate AMIs for testing validation candidate composes in EC2. I decided to make that better! I've enhanced wikitcms to be capable of generating a template page containing AMI IDs for a given validation event, much like the page which has all the image download links in it. I tweaked the wiki validation instructions template to transclude that page in Cloud validation pages (but not other validation pages, to avoid clutter and confusion), and wrote a fedora-messaging consumer which should update the AMI info page every time a new AMI image is published for a validation candidate compose. So basically, when you look at the Cloud validation page, you should see some handy tables with all the relevant AMI IDs (and direct launch links). Here's how it looks for the current validation event: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_32_Rawhide_20191109.n.1_… I hope it'll keep working as new validation events show up, I'll try and keep an eye on it. Note this gets its data from the messages published by fedimg, so it will *not* include any images *not* published by fedimg. This may become an issue when CoreOS becomes release blocking, I guess. If anyone's interested in the implementation details here, the new consumer is in relvalconsumer: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/relvalconsumer/c/3ceac217bc90a9d29bb8d7c6156e80… the other changes were in wikitcms: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/python-wikitcms/c/49f450c19418adf82d9d071355198… and the wiki release validation instructions template: https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ARelease_validation_i… Let me know if you see any problems or have any suggestions for this. thanks! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net

OK, so, to move forward with this (and looping in cloud list): does someone want to propose a set (ideally small - 2 would be great, one Xen and one non-Xen, if we can cover most common usages that way!) of EC2 instance types we should test on? With that, we could tweak the criteria a bit to specify those instance types, tweak the Cloud validation page a bit, and then drop the Xen criterion and test case.
