any idea how to remove a domain from a subnet via the API? setting “domains” to an empty list does not work

same with setting domain_ids to an empty list

/clear

figured it out :)

I'm trying to set a username and password on an IPMI interface thru hammer: foreman-40002-prod-chidc2:~)# hammer -u admin -p $PW host interface update --host balexx.blah.com --identifier ipmi --username root --password $IPW and I'm getting an error requesting MAC address. When I add it, I get "Mac has already been taken". Ideas?

is there some documentation how i integrate modules from puppetlabs (like puppetlabs/mysql) into foreman? can't seem to find that ...

ok, had to list the interface, delete it and then create it with the info I got from list.. seems like interface update isn't behaving as expected?

taz: we're using r10k which updates /etc/puppet/environments and then you goto PuppetClasses in FM and import from your foreman puppet proxy, set the desired overrides, create hostgroups and/or configgroups and add the classes you need.

balexx: did you create it again with or without the MAC?

Dominic: with

jvandewege: will look into that... :)

yeah, ought not to cause that taken error, can't think why it would. Perhaps file a bug for it

Dominic: frankly, all I want to do is set the username/password for IPMI... is there a way to feed this for a mass of hosts through API?

taz: if you got questions just let me/channel know.

not in bulk, it ought to be that interface update

k, will be this afternoon at the earliest ;)

I'll try through API and see if it works, so I can report if it's a hammer or API issue

thanks :-)

taz: np

morning

are there issues with proxy on centos 7 ?

ruby part

it seems there are ruby issues that smart-proxy doens't use the right binary, but it does it seems as -V shows the me the same version as /usr/bin/ruby

jvandewege: what is nice about r10k ? I never got it

YamakasY: you get to define exactly what puppet classes make up an environment, using katello will get you that and more but is more complicated.

jvandewege: but doesn't foreman show me that also ?

jvandewege: yeah I'm not sure if I'm going to use Katello... don't see any usage here for it

jvandewege: do you puppetize php5-fpm ?

I'm having issues with the noVNC console in foreman. I get three different outcomes on different vm's; timeouts, "[object Event]" in the console window instead of the console, or an actual working connection.

All of the vm's I'm trying to access are running on the same RHEV hypervisor.

ok, what can cause a proxy not starting on C7, it's the same setup as on my working 6.6's

YamakasY: r10k BUNDLES all your puppet classes for an environment and keeps them stable. See https://github.com/puppetlabs/r10k for more info

jvandewege: yes but what about the fact that you write your own :)

I wouldn't count on "3rd party settings"

YamakasY: run you're own git server and pull from there, not any different then pulling from github

jvandewege: oh yes there is, the default modules are moslty not usable in specific environments

I only the them as examples

my svn update can see a difference if needed and I'm still in control

all have issues :)

jvandewege: but did you setup your whole forman again as there is/was no possibility to add it later on

YamakasY: I'm not (yet) using katello. I'm hoping that when I want to use it that they have fixed the 'start over' bug.

jvandewege: I think it doesn't make life easier than it already was :)

jvandewege: do you run c7 proxies now ?

or still 6.6 ?

or rhel7 in your case

YamakasY: nope, still on 6.6 for most servers. Testing 7.1 for some.

jvandewege: ah nice, I'm already on 7.1 for some services, but I want to upgrade my proxies now too as C7 is much faster than 6

but starting the proxy is no fun

jvandewege: have you tried foreman on 7 ?
