[Bug 1008149] New: Contraficting info about the need of shared storage for storing guest images to be migrated
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1008149
Bug ID: 1008149
Summary: Contraficting info about the need of shared storage
for storing guest images to be migrated
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: virtualization-getting-started-guide
Assignee: dayleparker(a)redhat.com
Reporter: jrodrigosm(a)yahoo.es
QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
CC: dayleparker(a)redhat.com, docs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Hi,
In the Fedora 19 "Virtualization Getting Started Guide", section 2.2 ("What is
migration?"), URL
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Virtualization_Getting...
In the paragraph right before the 2.2.1 title, it is stated that "In Fedora 19,
shared storage is not necessary for storing guest images to be migrated. With
live storage migration [...]".
But in the last paragraph of the page, right before the note, it is stated that
"Shared, networked storage must be used for storing guest images to be
migrated. Without shared storage, migration is not possible."
These two statements seem contradictory to me. I just started learning about
virtualization, so I am unable to propose an alternative. But I do think some
clarification is needed.
Thanks,
Rodrigo

CC: docs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Assignee: laine(a)redhat.com
Summary: Need a list of toolsets and when they are appropriate
in the virt Getting Started guide
Regression: ---
Story Points: ---
Classification: Fedora
OS: Unspecified
Reporter: laine(a)redhat.com
Type: Bug
Documentation: ---
Hardware: Unspecified
Mount Type: ---
Status: NEW
Component: virtualization-getting-started-guide
Product: Fedora Documentation
The Getting Started Guide needs an overview of all the different toolsets, and
when each would be appropriate. In particular I'm talking about the following:
1) gnome-boxes
2) virt-manager
3) virsh, virt-install
4) ovirt
5) Should we point some people to OpenStack?
I will write up a first draft of this, and hand it to a qualified docs person
to edit and correctly place in the guide.

RFC: docs website layout demo
by Jeff Fearn
Hi, Rudi asked me to do a demo of how Fedora could make a rebuilt docs website look, so I've made a demo site & tweaked it a bit. Before I spend too much effort on it I thought I'd open it up for input.
I wanted to get a bit more done before the weekend, but time slipped away. I wanted to get it out for some feedback over the weekend so I can do some more on Monday, so I'd thought I'd just put it out there and hope people can understand it is only half baked.
Some of the stuff I did for this I liked so I've started migrating the template changes back in to publican, leaving this site with just some colour changes on what a default web_style 2 site will look like. I'll update my fedora people site next week so show what a default site will look like.
I've made a script to pull out most of the docs packages from git, and run through a bunch of branches per book, and try to build them with the latest publican. I'll make the script available next week for people who want to build their own copy. It should be useful to QA the process as it spits out a log file out for each repo and branch so you can get a good list of what's broken and what's not. I'll also put those up on my fedora people site next week ... If I have any quota left :D
Demo site is https://jfearn.fedorapeople.org/fdocs/en-US/index.html
I think this is a pretty good layout https://jfearn.fedorapeople.org/fdocs/en-US/index.html#Fedora
Colours are hard :-/
Note if you click a group, below the versions, then it filters out all the other groups.
Note that in the "System administration" group for Fedora 20 there is an external link "The Ways And Means Of Pants" which is a fake URL, if you have a couple of examples of real external links you'd like in that group, or any other group, I'd be happy to swap out the fake one.
I haven't changed the brand XSL for the html payload, I'd like to remove the old left and right logos at the top of the pages. They aren't really needed given the menu content.
e.g. https://jfearn.fedorapeople.org/fdocs/en-US/Fedora/20/html/Installation_G...
bah I just noticed a bug on that page, the first two items in the navigation menu are swapped ... :(
I'm sure there are lots more :}
I've built html, html-single, epub & pdf.
The site is only in en-US, it's 417M and I'm not sure the hosting people would be happy if I hosted more languages :)
Anyway, it's Friday evening and the wine is calling, please reply if you have any ideas or feedback, beware that I'm currently hacking on the publican devel branch, so I might steal any really cool ideas for publican.next ;)
Cheers, Jeff.
P.S. All the RSS feeds on there should work, but you probably do not want to sign up for that site!

The State of Publishing Documentation in Fedora
by Pete Travis
Hi all,
I've given a lot of thought to our publishing situation. The current
solution, using an unmaintained version of Publican on an unsupported
Fedora release, is untenable. The site we have been maintaining in
web.git is incompatible with current versions of publican, besides being
massive and prone to breakage. We have been working towards a
replacement, slowly.
The proposed successor to web.git is an RPM based system where Publican
creates SRPMs of the guides, Fedora's koji buildsystem builds packages
from the RPMs, and a VM instance installs the package to build the
site. Creating the SRPM would be analagous to the `publican build
--embedtoc ...` from the old process, and when the VM installs the
package, it does the `publican install-book` step of the process. We
currently have the koji infrastructure in place, a mostly viable way for
newly built packages to automatically be installed on the VM, and a
functional but mostly vanilla site frontend. Along the way, I've
identified a few caveats to this method, to which I'll add some general
observations:
- Each language of each release of each guide is a unique package. To
publish anything new, we must coordinate with releng to have the package
defined in koji. Releng is already overburdened.
- Each language must have a separately maintained revision history.
- The buildroot shared by koji and the VM required updated versions of
publican and publican's dependencies, and now must be maintained there
(which is currently not happening afaik).
- None of the breakage problems we've dealt with in web.git will go
away. Unusual language codes, bad draft procedures, wonky *_Info.xml
issues, and whatever black magic that ends with my manually running
sqlite invocations against the site db - that's all still there.
- The site frontend needs to be completely redesigned from the ground
up, and we have not demonstrated the motivation to see that through.
There are intricacies here that we didn't discover from a
straightforward following of the publican user's guide, and many
subjectively frustrating surprises.
- A publican website can only publish publican-friendly content. To
the best of my knowledge, that means docbook only. Our contributor base
is declining, and prospective contributors have consistently
demonstrated a lack of interest in writing docbook.
- A publican website does not provide an effective presentation of
many smaller articles. I've been disagreed with on this point, and will
concede that it's definitely possible to have 200 things under that F21
category, but I maintain that presentation in that way would be inimical
to reader browsing.
With all this in mind, I've decided to be honest with myself, and you,
in saying that I'm not motivated to make the publican website frontend
work. Something must be done to deal with our site's incompatibility
with current Publican, but from a usage perspective, I feel like there's
a very high upfront investment - and a moderate continuing investment in
maintaining the el6-docs koji repo - with no substantial gain in the
product delivered. For normal usage, we've simply replaced `publican
build;publican install-book` with `publican package;koji build`. Rudi
had initially volunteered to do *all* of the setup to make this work,
but he's a busy guy and it really isn't fair to expect him to deal with
that level of implementation for us.
We've tossed around ideas in #fedora-docs, and in discussing it, I've
developed a wishlist for an improved publishing platform:
- We use release-based branches to maintain content for a given Fedora
release. Anything committed to these branches is intended for
publication, so that should happen automatically.
- It should be simpler to make drafts available. If we can automate
publishing on release branches, we can do the same with master.
- We don't do as good of a job as we should with pushing and pulling
strings from translation. Pushes and pulls could be automated.
- There should be an effective way to publish and organize sundry
articles.
- The publishing platform should be able to process arbitrary markup
formats. I think docbook is great, and publican does a good job with
it, but there will be room for more contributions if that isn't mandatory.
- The frontend of the site should be adaptable. docs.fp.o would
ideally use the same design elements as other official Fedora sites for
a more unified appearance.
- Some validation on commits would be nice.
The working theory at this point is to use a continuous integration
system like Jenkins to automate builds. I've had a Jenkins instance
running locally this week, with new builds triggered via fedmsg signals
generated by our commits. This part works smoothly, with the exception
of a fedwatch bug that I've crudely worked around, but triggers using
python-fedmsg really wouldn't be too difficult. The infra folks are
also working on a Jenkins setup, so there's potential to share
experience and buildslaves. Turning that into a browseable frontend is
more immediately viable than you might think;
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jenkinscat/ is designed just for that
and can be customized for our needs. Jenkins plugins to cycle strings
from Zanata, or some other method, could come down the road. There's
room for other enhancements, too.
The CI idea is something I'm excited about, and motivated to work on.
I'd love to spend that time working with others, if you're interested.

Need help getting running with git on virtualization getting started
by Sandra McCann
Hi Folks -
I recently volunteered to help out with the virtualization getting started
guide. After a bit of help in chat today, I learned i needed to ssh not
https:// to clone the guide.
When I do this, I get an error that I could not read from the repository
and should check my access rights. A bit more poking and it looks like I
need to be in the doc-writers group but I'm not.
my FAS account is under mccann2. Can someone help with that, or let me
know if there's something else I should be doing?
I used the following:
git clone ssh://
mccann2(a)git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/docs/virtualization-getting-started-guide.git/
(with and without the mccann2) and got the access error both ways.
Thanks,
Sandra
