Re: Docker

[Jamie Duncan]

Using containers is nothing like using a fully virtualized kernel. It's
using cgroups, kernel namespaces, and selinux to isolate applications
within Linux and make them easier to deliver.

So you can't run a windows app natively in docker. You'd have to run Wine
in docker and execute your application that way. It's not a replacement for
virtualizaton.

 feasible -- rather than using any VM for the purpose of running such an

 How many have tried Docker?  Does it work well?  For example, will a
 legally licensed MS Win application that does not run under Wine/CrossOver
 work under Docker under SL 7 the same as it would under VirtualBox with a
 full install of say MS Win 8.1 (soon MS Win 10)?  Can one make a Docker
 application package on the target host (e.g., SL 7) or does one need first
 a full install of the (virtual) base (e.g., DLLs and OS environment
 structures of the original host of the application, e.g., MS Win) under
 which to dockerize (e.g., run MS Win under VirtualBox under SL7,
 dockerize a MS Win application, and then run the dockerized application
 under SL7 without VirtualBox or any regular VM)?

Re: RHEL 7 just hit the market place, I'm looking forward to when we can start testing SL 7

[Jamie Duncan]

I'm not worried at all if you have a license or not. I'm not your sales
rep. :)

The way the comment read didn't sit with me well. It sounded dismissive to
a lot of work that Red Hatters do for upstream communities all over that
allow RHEL, RHEL derivitaves and all other forms of Linux to happen. Not
just the kernel, but the un-sexy bits in the middle that make an OS usable.

I also can't agree with the the thought that Red Hatters won't dissent
against company decisions that they don't agree with. I'm not going to dig
through the world archives this late on a Friday but I just don't accept
that assumption. Of course I'm a fanboy and an employee. But I'm those
things because I believe in how we try to do things. We don't always get it
right (see RHEV 1.0 and other debacles). But we try to.

 Although this discussion seems interesting, I see the same points being
 reiterated.  I don't see how any of this is going to change anything
 though. RedHat and CentOS are moving forward whether we like it or not and
 the SL development team are doing what they can within those constraints.
  If one needs all that integrity and vetting of the source, go fork over
 the money for a license.


 I have a license, don't worry. I am a Red Hat customer. But of course, one
 license will not do. You need a bunch of entitlements to get access to all
 channels. And on a yearly basis too. HA, RHSCL, ...

 For only accessing the SRPMs and rebuilding it adds up quickly.

Re: Any 7 rumors?

[Jamie Duncan]

I don't know what you mean by 'commercial OS'.

Let me rewind a little and make sure I'm completely clear in the point I
was trying to make. I blame the horrid hotel room I'm in right now for any
confusion.

I mostly work in the government space these days. Certifications like
Common Criteria, FIPS, FISMA, et al include not only the bits but the build
environments/processes/etc. as well. They are time-consuming, expensive and
the RHEL certifications for these standards don't apply to
SL/CentOS/OEL/foo.

You CAN be PCI-compliant with most any Linux distribution if you work hard
enough. However, if you find yourself in a PCI violation situation due to
the bits (not human error, of course), community-based distributions can
provide support through their normal means. Where Red Hat differs with PCI
is that they are also legally on the hook in that situation because of the
TC's that customers accept at the beginning. It's a two-way street.

In those situations, having a vendor that is legally liable to assist and
provide remediation is, IMHO, a good thing.

Hope that helps.

 Don't you mean Red Hat is releasing RHEL 6.4 in a few weeks? They just
 released 5.9  It's not clear how long it will take our fearless
 leaders at Scientific Linux to update the base installation media and
 OS repository to match, but if you stay up-to-date with the 6x
 packages, you should be close enough to up-to-date that the 6.4
 release will be pretty pain free. Even withing 6.3, SL has been very
 good about keeping the kernels updated.

It's useful. It's built into the upstream vendor's basic operating
system. It's about as close to bare metal speed as you're going to get
for a reasonable price and investment in architecture. The management
tool, libvirt and virt-manager, are a direct violation of *EVERY
SINGLE ONE* of the open source GUI guidelines described by Eric
Raymond in his essay, The Luxury of Ignorance, including the

but

Head on over to
https://wikis.uit.tufts.edu/confluence/display/TUSKpub/Configure+Pair+Bonding+and+Bridges+for+KVM+Hypervisor
.
I've recently been working on that project, which is now open source.
You basically have to do it by hand because neither NetworkManager nor
system-config-network acknowledge the existenc of, nor correctly
handle, KVM bridges, pair bonding, or tagged VLAN's if your virtual
hosts may be on different VLAN's.

 can someone help me understand end 2 end what I should do to create a
 new bridge interface and make it available for KVM's?

See my notes. They were arrived at after some experimentation, some
guidance from groups like this, and the harsh discovery that *the
upstream vendor's default kernel for 6.3 does not work will bonding,
VLAN's, and KVM bridges altogether, and needs to be updated by hook
or by crook before all three can be used together. This drove me nuts,
because I'd installed some machines and moved them to the new tagged
VLAN environment, but could not for the life of me get the full
network configuration working until after I'd updated the kernel.

Re: task blocked for more than 120 seconds

[Jamie Duncan]

is there a specific bug/bugs you're referring to?

a hung task means that a process is sitting on a core waiting on a specific
bit of I/O for  120 seconds. Not the length of the entire process, mind
you, which depends on countless inputs and outputs to complete, but
something on the other side isn't answering for a very long time.  It
usually means an unhealthy system at some level.
