Description

Hi,

FreeBSD 11.1 is about to reach EOL and our plugin infrastructure is still on 11.1

WARNING: FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE is approaching its End-of-Life date.
It is strongly recommended that you upgrade to a newer
release within the next 2 months.
src component not installed, skipped

I'd suggest we do the switch to 11.2 before the next BETA or RC but there is a some work involved,

- Switch jenkins build to to FreeBSD 11.2
- Rebuild all packages
- Switch iocage-ix-plugins complete to 11.2
- Test all plugins if they still work as expected.

I'd like to hear your opinion what the best time would be to do the switch, and if I could get someone to help me testing the plugins after the switch.

I agree, the soonest the better in my opinion.

#3 Updated by Joe Maloney about 2 years ago

I would prefer we switch to 11.2-RELEASE if possible before next 11.2 BETA2 or sometime just after if we can for sure. Do we know how much work this will entail? Does the work happen in iocage, or do we just bump the OS we build the plugins with in a jail somewhere? Will we need a separate ticket for standard iocage jails to make 11.2-RELEASE jails as well?

It's just a one character change in the json manifests.

I think max 1 1/2 to 2 days including testing the plugins.

Building the packages against 11.2 might take the most time. Switching iocage plugins goes quick (as kris pointed out), testing the plugins will take the most time depending on network/hardware.

Steps would be:
- Switch jenkins iocage build to use FreeBSD 11.2
- Start a clean package build against 11.2
- Switch all plugins in one step to FreeBSD 11.2
- Start testing.

First two parts are done,

https://github.com/freenas/iocage-ix-plugins/pull/34
https://github.com/iXsystems/ixbuild/pull/41

once someone had a look and approve I can start building the packages and start testing the plugins

If you're going to do any plugin work, bear in mind these 2 jobs while you're dabbling.

https://redmine.ixsystems.com/issues/32442
https://redmine.ixsystems.com/issues/34495

May not have any impact (if so, sorry!) but be aware of their existence.
Thanks all.

Seems a lot of plugins are being worked on at the moment.
