[katello] State of 2.2 release

All,

As must of you know the Foreman 1.8 release is out and our intent from the
beginning with 2.2 has been to release in lockstep. I have decided to delay
the release by ~1 week in order to address an upgrade issue with gutterball
and to allow time to test and review updates to how Capsule interactions
are handled that we feel the final 2.2 release should include.

The target date for release will be Tuesday 5/5.

Hi Eric, thanks for the update - can you maybe check the below as well…

1.) I could not find a ticket for the Katello-Agent (goferd/qpid-proton)
CPU Issue, it seems that I´m not the only one facing this item and this
would maybe become for a lot of people a problem…(see the 2 links below)
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/foreman-users/u538_xZ7cTo
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/foreman-users/Z26nidkgALA

2.) Another recommendation from my side would be that in the Upgrade Doc it
will be mentioned that all clients needs to be upgraded with the new
Katello-Agent as well (see Issue1 from below link)
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/foreman-users/katello-agent/foreman-users/_7syhWel0GQ/TuDNEuctY1MJ

3.) and my last issue (minor) with a Package Upload Problem via GUI
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/foreman-users/phuI9bscfew

PS: For myself its not a big problem, because I wrote some private puppet
modules to overcome item1 & 2 with a workaround, and item3 is not a blocker
for me…

thx,
Christian

I grabbed newer versions of qpid-proton and qpid-dispatch and add them to
our 2.2 staging repositories. The qpid-dispatch should fix 100% CPU time
for qdrouterd. As for gofer, since I have not found a reliable reproducer,
I am upgrading the package in hopes that it addresses the issue. The
qpid-proton version will be 0.9.2 which I realize is not the exact version
you tested against but is the highest "blessed" version I have access to
currently. I will keep an eye out for an official 0.9.3 version.

Great idea. I will add this.

Sorry I missed this – would you mind filling a Redmine issue for this so
we can properly track it?

Thanks,
Eric

Hi,

Think I saw some build problems with Katello the other day. Are you still
working on the release, or did I miss the announcement?

Cheers,

D

The release will be out today or tomorrow.
