Project Description

The goal is to have a language model, that is able to answer technical questions on Uyuni. Uyuni documentation is too large for in-context processing, so finetuning is the way to go.

Goal for this Hackweek

Finetune a model based on llama-2-7b.

    Uyuni Health-check Grafana AI Troubleshooter by ygutierrez

    Description

    This project explores the feasibility of using the open-source Grafana LLM plugin to enhance the Uyuni Health-check tool with LLM capabilities. The idea is to integrate a chat-based "AI Troubleshooter" directly into existing dashboards, allowing users to ask natural-language questions about errors, anomalies, or performance issues.

    Goals

    • Investigate if and how the grafana-llm-app plug-in can be used within the Uyuni Health-check tool.
    • Investigate if this plug-in can be used to query LLMs for troubleshooting scenarios.
    • Evaluate support for local LLMs and external APIs through the plugin.
    • Evaluate if and how the Uyuni MCP server could be integrated as another source of information.

    "what is it" file and directory analysis via MCP and local LLM, for console and KDE by rsimai

    Description

    Users sometimes wonder what files or directories they find on their local PC are good for. If they can't determine from the filename or metadata, there should an easy way to quickly analyze the content and at least guess the meaning. An LLM could help with that, through the use of a filesystem MCP and to-text-converters for typical file types. Ideally this is integrated into the desktop environment but works as well from a console. All data is processed locally or "on premise", no artifacts remain or leave the system.

    Goals

    • The user can run a command from the console, to check on a file or directory
    • The filemanager contains the "analyze" feature within the context menu
    • The local LLM could serve for other use cases where privacy matters

    TBD

    • Find or write capable one-shot and interactive MCP client
    • Find or write simple+secure file access MCP server
    • Create local LLM service with appropriate footprint, containerized
    • Shell command with options
    • KDE integration (Dolphin)
    • Package
    • Document

    Try AI training with ROCm and LoRA by bmwiedemann

    Description

    I want to setup a Radeon RX 9600 XT 16 GB at home with ROCm on Slowroll.

    Goals

    I want to test how fast AI inference can get with the GPU and if I can use LoRA to re-train an existing free model for some task.

    • https://www.suse.com/c/lora-fine-tuning-llms-for-text-classification/

    Results

    got inference working with llama.cpp:

    export LLAMACPP_ROCM_ARCH=gfx1200
    HIPCXX="$(hipconfig -l)/clang" HIP_PATH="$(hipconfig -R)" \
    cmake -S . -B build -DGGML_HIP=ON -DAMDGPU_TARGETS=$LLAMACPP_ROCM_ARCH \
    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLLAMA_CURL=ON \
    -Dhipblas_DIR=/usr/lib64/cmake/hipblaslt/ \
    && cmake --build build --config Release -j8
    m=models/gpt-oss-20b-mxfp4.gguf
    cd $P/llama.cpp && build/bin/llama-server --model $m --threads 8 --port 8005 --host 0.0.0.0 --device ROCm0 --n-gpu-layers 999
    

    Without the --device option it faulted. Maybe because my APU also appears there?

    I updated/fixed various related packages: https://src.opensuse.org/ROCm/rocm-examples/pulls/1 https://src.opensuse.org/ROCm/hipblaslt/pulls/1 SR 1320959

    benchmark

    I benchmarked inference with llama.cpp + gpt-oss-20b-mxfp4.gguf and ROCm offloading to a Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB. I varied the number of layers that went to the GPU:

    • 0 layers 14.49 tokens/s (8 CPU cores)
    • 9 layers 17.79 tokens/s 34% VRAM
    • 15 layers 22.39 tokens/s 51% VRAM
    • 20 layers 27.49 tokens/s 64% VRAM
    • 24 layers 41.18 tokens/s 74% VRAM
    • 25+ layers 86.63 tokens/s 75% VRAM (only 200% CPU load)

    So there is a significant performance-boost if the whole model fits into the GPU's VRAM.

    Goal for this Hackweek

    • Put M2Crypto into better shape (most issues closed, all pull requests processed)
    • More fun to learn jujutsu
    • Play more with Gemini, how much it help (or not).
    • Perhaps, also (just slightly related), help to fix vis to work with LuaJIT, particularly to make vis-lspc working.


    Ansible to Salt integration by vizhestkov

    Description

    We already have initial integration of Ansible in Salt with the possibility to run playbooks from the salt-master on the salt-minion used as an Ansible Control node.

    In this project I want to check if it possible to make Ansible working on the transport of Salt. Basically run playbooks with Ansible through existing established Salt (ZeroMQ) transport and not using ssh at all.

    It could be a good solution for the end users to reuse Ansible playbooks or run Ansible modules they got used to with no effort of complex configuration with existing Salt (or Uyuni/SUSE Multi Linux Manager) infrastructure.

    Goals

    • [v] Prepare the testing environment with Salt and Ansible installed
    • [v] Discover Ansible codebase to figure out possible ways of integration
    • [v] Create Salt/Uyuni inventory module
    • [v] Make basic modules to work with no using separate ssh connection, but reusing existing Salt connection
    • [v] Test some most basic playbooks

    Set Uyuni to manage edge clusters at scale by RDiasMateus

    Description

    Prepare a Poc on how to use MLM to manage edge clusters. Those cluster are normally equal across each location, and we have a large number of them.

    The goal is to produce a set of sets/best practices/scripts to help users manage this kind of setup.

    Goals

    step 1: Manual set-up

    Goal: Have a running application in k3s and be able to update it using System Update Controler (SUC)

    • Deploy Micro 6.2 machine
    • Deploy k3s - single node

      • https://docs.k3s.io/quick-start
    • Build/find a simple web application (static page)

      • Build/find a helmchart to deploy the application
    • Deploy the application on the k3s cluster

    • Install App updates through helm update

    • Install OS updates using MLM

    step 2: Automate day 1

    Goal: Trigger the application deployment and update from MLM

    • Salt states For application (with static data)
      • Deploy the application helmchart, if not present
      • install app updates through helmchart parameters
    • Link it to GIT
      • Define how to link the state to the machines (based in some pillar data? Using configuration channels by importing the state? Naming convention?)
      • Use git update to trigger helmchart app update
    • Recurrent state applying configuration channel?

    step 3: Multi-node cluster

    Goal: Use SUC to update a multi-node cluster.

    • Create a multi-node cluster
    • Deploy application
      • call the helm update/install only on control plane?
    • Install App updates through helm update
    • Prepare a SUC for OS update (k3s also? How?)
      • https://github.com/rancher/system-upgrade-controller
      • https://documentation.suse.com/cloudnative/k3s/latest/en/upgrades/automated.html
      • Update/deploy the SUC?
      • Update/deploy the SUC CRD with the update procedure

    Testing and adding GNU/Linux distributions on Uyuni by juliogonzalezgil

    Join the Gitter channel! https://gitter.im/uyuni-project/hackweek

    Uyuni is a configuration and infrastructure management tool that saves you time and headaches when you have to manage and update tens, hundreds or even thousands of machines. It also manages configuration, can run audits, build image containers, monitor and much more!

    Currently there are a few distributions that are completely untested on Uyuni or SUSE Manager (AFAIK) or just not tested since a long time, and could be interesting knowing how hard would be working with them and, if possible, fix whatever is broken.

    For newcomers, the easiest distributions are those based on DEB or RPM packages. Distributions with other package formats are doable, but will require adapting the Python and Java code to be able to sync and analyze such packages (and if salt does not support those packages, it will need changes as well). So if you want a distribution with other packages, make sure you are comfortable handling such changes.

    No developer experience? No worries! We had non-developers contributors in the past, and we are ready to help as long as you are willing to learn. If you don't want to code at all, you can also help us preparing the documentation after someone else has the initial code ready, or you could also help with testing :-)

    The idea is testing Salt (including bootstrapping with bootstrap script) and Salt-ssh clients

    To consider that a distribution has basic support, we should cover at least (points 3-6 are to be tested for both salt minions and salt ssh minions):

    1. Reposync (this will require using spacewalk-common-channels and adding channels to the .ini file)
    2. Onboarding (salt minion from UI, salt minion from bootstrap scritp, and salt-ssh minion) (this will probably require adding OS to the bootstrap repository creator)
    3. Package management (install, remove, update...)
    4. Patching
    5. Applying any basic salt state (including a formula)
    6. Salt remote commands
    7. Bonus point: Java part for product identification, and monitoring enablement
    8. Bonus point: sumaform enablement (https://github.com/uyuni-project/sumaform)
    9. Bonus point: Documentation (https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni-docs)
    10. Bonus point: testsuite enablement (https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/tree/master/testsuite)

    If something is breaking: we can try to fix it, but the main idea is research how supported it is right now. Beyond that it's up to each project member how much to hack :-)

    • If you don't have knowledge about some of the steps: ask the team
    • If you still don't know what to do: switch to another distribution and keep testing.

    This card is for EVERYONE, not just developers. Seriously! We had people from other teams helping that were not developers, and added support for Debian and new SUSE Linux Enterprise and openSUSE Leap versions :-)

    In progress/done for Hack Week 25

    Guide

    We started writin a Guide: Adding a new client GNU Linux distribution to Uyuni at https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/wiki/Guide:-Adding-a-new-client-GNU-Linux-distribution-to-Uyuni, to make things easier for everyone, specially those not too familiar wht Uyuni or not technical.

    openSUSE Leap 16.0

    The distribution will all love!

    https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap#DRAFTScheduleforLeap16.0

    Curent Status We started last year, it's complete now for Hack Week 25! :-D

    • [W] Reposync (this will require using spacewalk-common-channels and adding channels to the .ini file) NOTE: Done, client tools for SLMicro6 are using as those for SLE16.0/openSUSE Leap 16.0 are not available yet
    • [W] Onboarding (salt minion from UI, salt minion from bootstrap scritp, and salt-ssh minion) (this will probably require adding OS to the bootstrap repository creator)
    • [W] Package management (install, remove, update...). Works, even reboot requirement detection
