Jimmy, not a problem at all. I used the pull requests earlier. It did not
work well.  Then I used the superuser branch from mrazzar repository which
worked well. I will bring it to the community and see if everyone wants to
use it. I can run either.

Thanks.

Thanks, Tong for follow up!

Ultimately, I leave it up to you all on whether to move forward with
this :) I completely understand if it's deemed too risky. But I really,
really appreciate you testing!!!

Cheers,
Jimmy

         Updates on the runs after using the patch from superuser branch
         not the pull request.

         I have downloaded from mrazzari's superuser branch and tested the
         run few times, each time the script finished successfully with
         right content and plugins installed. If you like to try it, here
         is the command to clone the code.

         git clone https://github.com/mrazzari/osops-tools-contrib -b
         superuser

         after you clone it, you run the command exactly same as you run
         the master. This script run a bit longer though. I think due to
         new installed software, plugins and more posts.

         Thanks.

         Hi all

         Just a heads up that there are a couple of config issues that Tong
         might have missed in his test.

         Please review this diff between my branch and master and make sure
         all changes were applied on your end:
         https://github.com/openstack/osops-tools-contrib/compare/master...mrazzari:superuser

         The changes there take care of plugins, fixing the link issue you
         found, etc.

         We spun up an OVH instance yesterday and tested the entire deploy
         and it worked. For those of you not running ansible, it may not
         make sense. Though again, it should work.

         Thanks for giving it a go!

                     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,

               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,

               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.

Thanks 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.

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!

         Jonathan

               Tong,

               We're working on limiting the # of posts, which should
               decrease the load time. Meanwhile, can you confirm that this
               basic workflow will work?

               Thank you,

               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.

         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,

      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,

   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.
