Support for Nefos' OpenStack cloud

Open keesm-nefos opened this issue 10 months ago • 3 comments

It would be great if we could support Flatcar from our OpenStack public cloud at Nefos.

Initial testing using Flatcar Container Linux 3815.2.1 with kOps (sorry, do not remember the version any more) seemed very promising.

Ideally we could follow the release cadence of Flatcar given a CI/CD principle.

Thanks @keesm-nefos for the issue. I successfully ran the test suite on Nefos:

Would you be interested to join the next public Flatcar office hours next week (https://github.com/flatcar/Flatcar/discussions/1646) to present Nefos and why not run a Flatcar demo on it (just spawn an instance basically or your kops deployment if you have it prepared)? We can discuss the next steps in this meeting. :)

Nice, good to see it is working out!

Yes I would be interested to introduce Nefos (and a running version of Flatcar) for a bit, but I'm afraid the time slot interferes with my calendar, even on a recurring basis. Another time slot could work maybe; not sure how big the audience would be?

Hi @keesm-nefos,

No worries - on top of office hours we have "developer sync" meeting. Next one is 26th of March (Wed.) would it be complicated for you to join this one as well: https://github.com/flatcar/Flatcar/discussions/1671?

In terms of attendance, both meetings are open to folks interested in Flatcar development. While office hours share the latest news, demos, etc. the developer sync meeting is more about the on-going development (next release, development updates, new provider, etc.) so it would make sense to discuss Nefos next steps here as well. :)
