[OpenStack-DefCore] Fw: WP theme for interop demo

RED ALERT!
Dear interop challengers, I am forwarding this email to you to let
everybody know that there was a proposal to use the OpenStack foundation
superuser award wordpress web site content for our demo. Jimmy who is on
copy of this email did all the hard work to make this happen, my thanks go
to Jimmy on this nice effort.
Here is what I found when I tried:
1. Missing plugins, without missing plugins installed automatically, the
main page looks very disappointing.
2. Broken links. Even with missing plugins installed manually, links at the
top of the page are all broken. I suspect that the trimmed down exported
content missing pages and/or posts.
So, you can try this, but please maintain your good env so that you do not
mess up things while you are on stage.
Thanks

I'm certainly sympathetic to last minute changes. As a test we have just
stood up the entire thing on an ovh cloud with success. Since what we are
discussing are minor config changes, could it be something that can be
tested? Seems like the test time would be nominal for each org. If it
doesn't work, no problem. But I'd ask that you at least consider.
Thanks,
Jimmy McArthur <jimmy at openstack.org>

So I was on stage with folks when this was discussed. After looking
at the script changes, there were lots of concern from a majority of
folks demoing at trying to absorb those changes with such little
runway. Much concern about having a failure and the optics of that.
The "hey I was asked to do a death or glory change at the last
minute" excuse probably would not be accepted well by the management
of any of the folks on stage trying this demo change (and failing). I
discussed the situation with our executive management (Todd Moore)
and he was very concerned about trying to make this type of change at
this point in time.
Thanks,

OK. That's a bit of a bummer. Did you all review the
changes suggested? They're minor config changes and two
calls to grab additional plugins. We based it off the
existing code. We'd sure prefer to have Superuser up
there on the screen.
Please let us know if we can provide any info or answer
any questions about the changes.

Hi Jimmy & Jonathan-
We tested all but 2 builds today and
they all worked —yay!
I’m afraid this is coming too late to
implement this. There are too many
large code changes that 16 people would
have to implement & the risk is simply
too high at this late date. The demoers
were all in agreement.
Brad/Tong can address the technical
details but basically changing this now
will put the entire demo at risk.
Thanks-

Tong,
The details of the WP theme are in this
github pull request:
https://github.com/openstack/osops-tools-contrib/pull/2/files
Manuel doesn't work on openstack, so
didn't realize you wouldn't be able to
merge with github. However, you can
grab the zips and the additional yml
changes fro that.
Will you be able to test this evening?
Thank you,
Jimmy

Please be at the rehearsal tomorrow
(Tuesday) 3:00pm to make sure that your
laptop can connect and show correctly.
Thanks.

We're working on limiting the # of

time. Meanwhile, can you confirm that
this basic workflow will work?

There
are 600 posts in prod, and we had trimmed it down to 60 posts for this demo.
But we can probably further trim it down to 15-20. The "load more posts"
button
at the bottom won't show up, but I don't think that matters.
OK
on
the
"hello
world" post.
Will
update the zips with those fixes tomorrow.
Please
let me know when you've had a chance to test the ansible buildouts.
Also
note I only updated the zip URLs in the OSIC yaml.

Is
there
anyway to trim the posts down so that it will take less time? 5 minutes
will
basically double the set up time for a lot of these clouds and result in
us
not
being
able to show the superuser side. How many posts are included currently? We
really
only need enough to make the homepage look good so maybe 5-10?
Also,
is there any way to remove that autogenerated first post on WordPress?
It
looks
really good so I'd like to be able to use it, but 5 minutes will end up
taking
so long the segment will already be over.

Just
posted this:
https://github.com/openstack/osops-tools-contrib/pull/2
I
don't
usually contribute to OpenStack, so I had no idea about the Gerrit flow :(
Since
we're so short of time, please review and patch manually as needed.
Here's
what you should see after it's setup:
http://dev9.tipit.net/tipit/superuser-test/
Importing
the posts and regenerating image thumbnails will take the most time.
The
whole
thing takes me about 5 min with a 5Mbps connection.
Please
let me know how it goes!
Note:
I'm at GMT-3, so it's -5 hours from Barcelona.

Tong, I'll be submitting a pull request to osops-tools-contrib later today,
including the theme & dump URLs. Then you could either merge it, or run
the
demo
directly off my fork, if you find that my tweaks are overly specific.

We
should
have internet connection for all the machines. If not, we are totally screwed.
When can you have the themes and dump ready? I am flying out Sunday (in
few
hours).
We can only test this. Even if the patch download the tar locally, it won't
work because the script install many things from ubuntu repository.
Thanks.

Re:

Tong,
Good
day! Manuel will send along the details when we have the pieces ready. We're
still in testing mode.
We
did
have
a question about this commit though:
https://github.com/openstack/osops-tools-contrib/commit/d856841a87611af43196249bd76316a2134b4
In
the
past,
we've always had readily available internet at the summit, and our solution
relies on internet connectivity, primarily because of the post images and
avatar
images.
What
are we thinking in terms of connectivity?
Cheers,
Jimmy

Hi
Tong,
I know
I fell
behind
on
getting
back to you with this, but our team has worked on a WP theme and posts
dump
that
can
deploy
a
SuperUser
instance through the interop demo. I’m copying in Jimmy and Manuel who can
help
you
get
connected
with the files. I really want to add this in because I think it will have
a much
better
impact
to
show
at the
end
than
the
mocked
up WP
theme.
Thanks!
