Project Description

Goal is to write a salt formula for setup a uyuni proxy.

Goal for this Hackweek

  1. Learn about salt formula
  2. setup a uyuni proxy using a salt formula
  3. if there's still time, write also a salt formula for setup a containerized uyuni proxy using a salt formula

Resources

Current uyuni proxy setup procedure: https://www.uyuni-project.org/uyuni-docs/en/uyuni/installation-and-upgrade/uyuni-proxy-setup.html

Looking for hackers with the skills:

    Saline (state deployment control and monitoring tool for SUSE Manager/Uyuni) by vizhestkov

    Project Description

    Saline is an addition for salt used in SUSE Manager/Uyuni aimed to provide better control and visibility for states deploymend in the large scale environments.

    In current state the published version can be used only as a Prometheus exporter and missing some of the key features implemented in PoC (not published). Now it can provide metrics related to salt events and state apply process on the minions. But there is no control on this process implemented yet.

    Continue with implementation of the missing features and improve the existing implementation:

    • authentication (need to decide how it should be/or not related to salt auth)

    • web service providing the control of states deployment

    Goal for this Hackweek

    • Implement missing key features

    • Implement the tool for state deployment control with CLI

    Saltboot ability to deploy OEM images by oholecek

    Description

    Saltboot is a system deployment part of Uyuni. It is the mechanism behind deploying Kiwi built system images from central Uyuni server location.

    System image is when the image is only of one partition and does not contain whole disk image and deployment system has to take care of partitioning, fstab on top of integrity validation.

    However systems like Aeon, SUSE Linux Enterprise Micro and similar are distributed as disk images (also so called OEM images). Saltboot currently cannot deploy these systems.

    The main problem to saltboot is however that currently saltboot support is built into the image itself. This step is not desired when using OEM images.

    Goals

    Saltboot needs to be standalone and be able to deploy OEM images. Responsibility of saltboot would then shrink to selecting correct image, image integrity validation, deployment and boot to deployed system.

    Enable the containerized Uyuni server to run on different host OS by j_renner

    Description

    The Uyuni server is provided as a container, but we still require it to run on Leap Micro? This is not how people expect to use containerized applications, so it would be great if we tested other host OSs and enabled them by providing builds of necessary tools for (e.g. mgradm). Interesting candidates should be:

    • openSUSE Leap
    • Cent OS 7
    • Ubuntu
    • ???

    Goals

    Make it really easy for anyone to run the Uyuni containerized server on whatever OS they want (with support for containers of course).


    Edge Image Builder and mkosi for Uyuni by oholecek

    Description

    One part of Uyuni system management tool is ability to build custom images. Currently Uyuni supports only Kiwi image builder.

    Kiwi however is not the only image building system out there and with the goal to also become familiar with other systems, this projects aim to add support for Edge Image builder and systemd's mkosi systems.

    Goals

    Uyuni is able to

    • provision EIB and mkosi build hosts
    • build EIB and mkosi images and store them

    Install Uyuni on Kubernetes in cloud-native way by cbosdonnat

    Description

    For now installing Uyuni on Kubernetes requires running mgradm on a cluster node... which is not what users would do in the Kubernetes world. The idea is to implement an installation based only on helm charts and probably an operator.

    Goals

    Install Uyuni from Rancher UI.
