If foreman builds an entire machine with an unattended install, should a finish script being run?

If i look at the interface it says it should but it doesn't and i can't find anything in the debug log

dingesX: finish only runs on a host created from an image that doesn't have user data

or debian preseed i think

if it's kickstart, the finish stuff is in %post

Ah...

LOL oh man, i see....... aaargh :)

stbenjam: thanks a lot!

so.. if we have zero ipv6 hosts (all AWS) how do we disable ipv6 support in 1.13.1? it insists on having an address, then it tries to set the records in the (ipv4-only) dns server

it isn't possible to entirely disable IPv6 support, but selecting an IPv6 subnet (& IP) should not be required

Dis: can I see a screenshot of what insists on having an address?

sure gimme a quick sec

sorry got sucked into a stand-up. gimme a couple mins. (btw failing to set ipv6 and then emptying the field worked, so I'll have to build a fresh one to get the 'field cannot be empty' screenshot)

ah I think I've seen that.. when you edit the interface the domain does not have any IPv6 subnets but it still shows an error 'ip could not be found' or something like that, right?

just asking to make sure, we should not show anything and fix that, but as you said you can ignore the error

just skip it and submit again? let me get that screenshot so we're on the same page but I can live with that as a workaround. (we still have rare cases where it does that for the finish templates, so its a bad trend but a decent workaround)

uploading now

Dis: sorry, i meant the error you see when you click on 'edit' on the interface

understood, just wanted to grab both

we're letting EC2 allocate automatically for ipv4 (so its blank)

and it still eats the AZ and security group settings when it errors out :(

after the first pass, I left it blank, reset the subnet/security groups and it came back with the same error.

what happens if you try to resubmit then?

same error. initial submit, error. fix AZ subnet and security groups, resubmit. same error. (tried that 2 times)

Dis: let me try then.. I would've thought foreman would not insist on setting that

Dis: mind to open an issue on http://projects.theforeman.org/projects/foreman... with the screenshots? it helps to keep track

me too :(

sure

I have it tagged 'high' but for our use, it is pretty critical. Huge high-viz project just dumped a load of new-host requests on us :(

hello,

dLobatog: any other info you want in the ticket?

Dis: thanks, that should be enough, if I can get a workaround I'll post it

awesome. I have to run to work but I'll get my irc proxy running again so I can watch the channel :)

When I do a chef run with foreman, it says that ForemanFacts and ForemanReporting run successfully no facts are recorded to my foreman server. Anyone know what I should be doing?

Guy: let me first ask, how did you install chef plugins?

mhulan: I ran "gem install chef_handler_foreman" and modified the client.rb file according to the chef-handler-foreman git page

Guy: you also have to install foreman_chef and smart_proxy_chef plugins to your Foreman and Smart proxy

Guy: the easiest way is to follow https://theforeman.org/plugins/foreman_chef/0.3...

I run a 3.1 katello instance with embedded foreman 1.12 release. Can I upgrade to foreman 1.13 or may I expect katello 3.2 with foreman 1.13?

mhulan: Thank you, I will try that now

Guy: I might be offline if you need some help later today, but I'll be happy to help tomorrow (I'm in CET timezone)

nblanchet: the latter, 3.2 GA is looking to be released either this week or early next week
