Daily Infrastructure Duties
[[Category:CDOT Staff]][[Category:Fedora ARM Secondary Architecture]][[Category:SOP]]
== Daily Infrastructure Duties ==
* Montior Monitor builder status** Are all All machines should be ready and checking in? Have NFS shares mount?enabled.** Are all builders that can be enabled enabled?Mount points from Hong Kong - Work Space (builder specific, and /mnt/koji).
* Back-ups - Check all automated back ups
**Ireland, New Zealand Back-ups are located on the critical management servers and iraq - /vararchive/kojiblaze-backup/***should contain backups of "/etc" and a postgresql dump, run on a daily basis at after midnight. These are cronjobs run as root for "/etc" and as koji for the postgresql dump.***Ireland should also have a full copy of "/mnt/koji"
* Check available disk space on all relevant machines - Hongkong, Ireland and New Zealand.
** /var and /mnt/koji on Hong Kong
== Repo Compose and Release ==
*Run 'mash' to create a repository
mash -o /mnt/koji/mash/beta/f13-arm-2011-05-06 f13-arm
 
==== Compose Updates ====
*Run mash against previously composed repository
mash f13-updates-arm -o /mnt/koji/mash/updates/13/ -p /mnt/koji/tree/updates/13/ -d /mnt/koji/tree/releases/13/Everything/ -f /mnt/koji/tree/releases/13/Everything/arm/os/repodata/fce31f091be8211a394d8942fcf4f6cbeffa3d40d87b61af55a97b1a88b46987-Fedora-13-comps.xml
==== Sign Packages ====
ls *.rpm | xargs rpm --addsign
* After packages are signed, you must run createrepo again to include the new metadata. Createrepo should be run from the parent directory of "Packages". Please replace the path to groups file accordingly.
createrepo -g /mnt/koji/mash/beta/f13-arm-2011-05-10/f13-arm/arm/os/comps.xml -d .* Package signing Standards of Practice [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Release_package_signing Packaging SOP]
==== Create new root filesystem ====
* Blogpost including links
* Wiki page for the release highlighting changes, notes
 
== Create Koji Builder - Create repo ==
 
* Download the ARM patched koji software from [http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/paulwhalen/ Koji Software]
yum localinstall koji-1.6.0-2.fc15.arm.noarch.rpm koji-builder-1.6.0-2.fc15.arm.noarch.rpm
* on hongkong create a certificate to be used with the new host. Certificates are created from the directory '/etc/pki/koji' by running the 'certscript'. A link to the [http://scotland/paulwhalen/certscript certscript]
./certscript <hostname>
* copy the cert (hostname.pem) and 'koji_ca_local+fedora.crt' to the new host machines '/etc/kojid/' folder.
* In order for createrepo tasks to work successfully you will need to downgrade the createrepo and yum packages that are included in F16. Download [http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/paulwhalen/createrepo-0.9.8-5.fc14.noarch.rpm createrepo-0.9.8-5.fc14.noarch.rpm ] and [http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/paulwhalen/yum-3.2.29-10.fc15.noarch.rpm yum-3.2.29-10.fc15.noarch.rpm]
rpm -Uvh --oldpackage createrepo-0.9.8-5.fc14.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh --oldpackage yum-3.2.29-10.fc15.noarch.rpm
* Edit the /etc/yum.conf to exclude the above packages from being updated
* edit '/etc/kojid/kojid.conf'. Example of a kojid.config can be found here [http://scotland/paulwhalen/kojid.conf kojid.conf]
* Edit the export file in the nfs server that holds mount koji, at this point which is chile and add the to-be-createrepo machine's info on that file and restart the nfs server
* Add mount koji through nfs in the to-be-createrepo machine (make the mounting directory and edit the fstab) and run mount all
 
 
== Bandwidth Throttling and Connection Limiting in Scotland ==
=== Throttling ===
* This script is based on [http://www.topwebhosts.org/tools/traffic-control.php Traffic Shaping script] and uses [http://linux.die.net/man/8/tc tc command]
* The bandwidth throttling script ''bwmon'' is available in /usr/local/bin in scotland
* Activate it by running the following
bwmon start
* Available options are
# bwmon [start|stop|restart|show]
 
* Script base is available [http://www.topwebhosts.org/tools/tc.bash.txt here]
* [http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/applying-download-speed-limit-iptables-842906/ External link] on bandwidth throttling.
 
=== Connection Limiting ===
* Connection will be limited 2 per host every 60 sec
* Custom netfilter tables are available in /usr/local/bin directory
 
* To enable connection limiting run the following
 
iptables-restore < /usr/local/bin/connlim.iptab
iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables
 
* To disable connection limiting run the following
iptables-restore < /usr/local/bin/regular.iptab
iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables
* More info available at [http://www.topwebhosts.org/tools/traffic-control.php Cybercity]

* The rsync server is running at default rsync port (TCP 873)
 
* Associated files are
daemon file = /etc/rsyncd.conf
motd file = /etc/rsyncd.motd
log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid
lock file = /var/run/rsync.lock
* The Firewall was adjusted to accommodate the rsyncd service. Please see [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Fedora_ARM_Secondary_Architecture/Standard_Operating_Procedures#Connection_Limiting already implemented firewall rules]
* Available modules are test and raspberrypi
* Sample invocation method as follows
rsync -aprvz scotland.proximity.on.ca::raspberrypi /path/to/destination/directory
* Script base is available at [http://everythinglinux.org/rsync/ Everything Linux]
* Additional tutorials available at [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/OPS335_Lab_10 Seneca Wiki]
=== Feature possibilities for the rsync server ===
* Service Command compatibility [http://www.fredshack.com/docs/rsync.html script from Fredshack] can be added
* Systemd compatibility [https://gist.github.com/1401352 script from Github] can be implemented
