Launchpad bug 751253 in linux (Ubuntu) "Many interrupts and slow disk I/O on Lucid xen guest" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/751253
<smb> thinks really that sounds a bit like maybe xen version or actually a lot of traffic as that machine had 500GB going out in 5 days

- Not present
- SpampS suggested to select someone else to drive the team.
RoAkSoAx suggested to remote the item from the Agenda until replacement is found.

Let's move on then [17:06] <RoAkSoAx> [TOPIC] Natty Development [17:06] <MootBot> New Topic: Natty Development [17:06] <RoAkSoAx> robbiew: ^^ [17:07] <robbiew> so...I'd like to propose Daviey take this section over ;) [17:07] <SpamapS> http://people.canonical.com/~platform/workitems/natty/canonical-server.html [17:07] <MootBot> LINK received: http://people.canonical.com/~platform/workitems/natty/canonical-server.html [17:07] <SpamapS> still a few items remaining [17:07] * Daviey is off the phone [17:07] <robbiew> I can cut and paste links...as above ;) [17:07] <RoAkSoAx> Daviey: go for it :) [17:07] <robbiew> in terms of development...I'm more interested in Bugs now anyway [17:08] <Daviey> Sorry, somewhat unprepared. [17:08] <robbiew> any remaining work items should be universe related or non-code [17:08] <robbiew> Daviey: no worries...I'm always that way :P [17:08] <Daviey> I think mainly, people need to make sure the blueprints are updated. [17:08] <SpamapS> Daviey: do we still have an auto-generated report from the server-n* tags ? [17:09] <Daviey> SpamapS, Yes [17:09] <Daviey> That is what i've mainly been tracking this week tbh.. it's more uselful at this stage for specific bug tracking,than WI. [17:09] <Daviey> IMO [17:09] <SpamapS> awesome. ;) [17:09] <Daviey> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.tag=server-nrs [17:09] <SpamapS> WI is almost done anyway, so yeah bugs are where its at. :) [17:10] <RoAkSoAx> awesome then [17:10] <RoAkSoAx> anyone has anything to add? [17:10] <SpamapS> Should show milestoned bugs as purple on the WI tracker. ;) [17:11] <Daviey> RoAkSoAx, ok to move on... [17:11] <RoAkSoAx> alright, I guess there's nothing else, [17:11] <RoAkSoAx> [TOPIC] Ubuntu Server Team Events [17:11] <Daviey> but make sure WI's are up to date :) [17:11] <MootBot> New Topic: Ubuntu Server Team Events [17:11] <RoAkSoAx> any event coming up? [17:11] <SpamapS> TOMORROW I'm speaking at the MySQL User's Conference about Drizzle in Natty [17:11] <RoAkSoAx> SpamapS: \o/ [17:11] <SpamapS> Santa Clara, CA .. be there, or be square. [17:12] <zul> ill be there...just not this week [17:12] <jamespage> Good luck SpamapS - is it due to be video cast? [17:12] <SpamapS> jamespage: not likely, its a massive event. [17:12] <Daviey> SpamapS, Looking forward to reading your blog post about it :) [17:12] <SpamapS> jamespage: and it will be at 3:15pm UTC -0700 .. [17:12] <RoAkSoAx> maybe would be a good thing to video tape all the events/talks on which ubuntu server member participate, to share them with the community [17:13] <Daviey> RoAkSoAx, Thanks for volunteering to be the team camera man. [17:13] <RoAkSoAx> Daviey: no worries if I can travel lol :) [17:13] <zul> you stole my soull.. [17:13] <RoAkSoAx> anyway, let's move on [17:13] <RoAkSoAx> [TOPIC] Weekly Updates & Questions for the QA Team (hggdh) [17:13] <MootBot> New Topic: Weekly Updates & Questions for the QA Team (hggdh) [17:13] <RoAkSoAx> hggdh: you are up [17:13] <Daviey> hey hggdh o/ [17:13] <hggdh> yo [17:13] * SpamapS just finished downloading the latest iso's [17:14] <hggdh> going thru euca now [17:14] <SpamapS> its ISO testing time yes? [17:14] <Daviey> SpamapS, cautionary [17:14] <hggdh> initial ISO tests via jenkins are all done, with success except for ec2 -- will discuss with jamespage [17:15] <Daviey> The current posted ISO will be deprecated later today, so not too much investment... But sniffing is useful. [17:15] <jamespage> hggdh - they have not been run yet. [17:15] <hggdh> jamespage: they _were_ running this morning (mine morning) [17:15] <Daviey> hggdh / jamespage: Is there any news on email failures of failed jenkins tests? [17:15] <hggdh> Daviey: no, yet to look at it [17:16] <Daviey> ok, thanks [17:16] <jamespage> hggdh: that was some adhoc testing to determine whether we where still getting network failures on startup - looked OK [17:16] <hggdh> I think it would be more productive to discuss jenkins usage on UDS -- where we would like it to go [17:16] <hggdh> instead of just ad-hoc additions [17:16] <hggdh> jamespage: roger, thanks [17:17] <jamespage> hggdh: agree [17:17] <RoAkSoAx> alright, I guess a session will be held at UDS [17:17] <RoAkSoAx> anything else to add?

[17:20] <smb> That has not yet a bug number [17:20] <Daviey> Are they tagged? [17:21] <smb> I will need to create one of "bring our patchset up to date with the one we were taking our patches from" [17:21] <zul> smb: may god have mercy on your soul [17:21] <Daviey> smb, sounds good to me... We appreciate this :) [17:22] <smb> I had been booting somewhere in the middle on ec2 and it surprisingly worked [17:22] <SpamapS> Have we run automated ec2 tests since bug 731878 was fixed? [17:22] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 731878 in Linux "shutdown(2) behavior changed in kernel" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/731878 [17:22] <smb> But ok, atm it does not compile again [17:23] <smb> SpamapS, Hm, I don't know [17:23] <jamespage> SpamapS: yes - I was unable to run in all regions but I did not see any instances failing to startup - http://jenkins.qa.ubuntu-uk.org/view/natty-ec2/job/natty_server_ec2_adhoc/5/ [17:24] <smb> In the spare time I only looked over bug 751253 [17:24] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 751253 in linux (Ubuntu) "Many interrupts and slow disk I/O on Lucid xen guest" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/751253 [17:25] <smb> But really that sounds a bit like maybe xen version or actually a lot of traffic as that machine had 500GB going out in 5 days [17:25] <SpamapS> jamespage: will keep fingers crossed that it was indeed this kernel bug. :) [17:25] <jamespage> SpamapS: me to! [17:26] <RoAkSoAx> alright, anything else to add? [17:26] <smb> I would not have more if there are no questions [17:26] <RoAkSoAx> anyone with questions? [17:26] <RoAkSoAx> I guess not. Moving on: [17:26] <RoAkSoAx> [TOPIC] Weekly Updates & Questions for the Documentation Team (sommer) [17:26] <MootBot> New Topic: Weekly Updates & Questions for the Documentation Team (sommer) [17:27] <RoAkSoAx> I believe it is time for us to consider removing this topic from the agenda [17:27] <SpamapS> Well [17:27] <RoAkSoAx> SpamapS: have you been in recent contact with sommer? [17:27] <SpamapS> I'd like to see the contact person changed. [17:27] <RoAkSoAx> SpamapS: sounds like you are volunteering :) [17:27] <SpamapS> RoAkSoAx: no, but I haven't tried much. Adam has moved on for now. :-/ [17:28] <SpamapS> I would love to do it, but I doubt I'd be very effective at actually getting things done. [17:28] <RoAkSoAx> I guess that for now we can remove the item from the agenda till we have a replacement to cover this topic [17:28] <RoAkSoAx> any objections? [17:29] <RoAkSoAx> I'll take that as a yes to remove it from the agenda then [17:29] <RoAkSoAx> ok, so moving on [17:30] <RoAkSoAx> [TOPIC] Weekly Updates & Questions from the Ubuntu Community [17:30] <MootBot> New Topic: Weekly Updates & Questions from the Ubuntu Community [17:30] <kim0> Howdy everyone o/ ..
