#devopslife — Public Fediverse posts

My OpenClaw wasn’t available this morning via Signal. I always got the error: this account is not registered anymore 😧

It took me an hour this morning to find out that Signal had unregistered all registrations that had not used SPQR (https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/issues/1993).
After updating to the latest signal-cli version and re-registering, my bot is back.

Things you don’t want on a Saturday morning.

Microsoft has decided our company email IP isn't nice and temporarily rate limited it for a full day now. We're talking to mailgun support, but according to Microsofts own SNDS thing nothing is wrong with our IP. As far as we can tell nothing has changed about the volume of outgoing emails from our side...

Gotta love the black box that is email IP reputation

Working with #Terraform over the past three days now! does it really make things easier? Sigh! #DevOpsLife #DevOps

They say coffee gives you a Monday morning boost.

But a bug in the nginx ingress controller that breaks redirects on a production site is a real kick.

I found myself using emoji images to make the steps in Gitlab CI more clear. It works for us.

You know you're in DevOps if these shirts feel... personal.

From “CI/CD or Die Trying” to “No Deploy Fridays,” it’s painfully accurate.

Ich:
Mir ist übrigens aufgefallen, dass wir das Bus-Problem in unserem 3-köpfigen Team völlig unterschätzen.
Für ordentliche Redundanz und somit Resilienz müssen wir nach 2n+1 vorgehen, wie wir es bei unserer Infrastruktur auch vorgeben:

2 x 1 Teamleiter + 1 = 3 Teamleiter

2 x 2 Teammitglieder + 1 = 5 Teammitglieder

Wir müssen handeln!

Mein TL:
Du machst mich heute fertig.

Nur heute?

I just finished two days of training where I needed to run 40 computers for 8 hours - nothing big - 2 CPUs and 8 GB RAM.

I remember AWS used to be said to be expensive, so I tried running DigitalOcean and Scaleway, which had a reputation for being cheaper cloud providers.

The invoice for a day and a half of training in AWS was 32 USD, on Scaleway it was 50 EUR. DigitalOcean wouldn't even let me run 40 computers.

I'm surprised that the invoice from AWS is cheaper.

Good: Gitlab runner image can start jobs as docker containers without docker cli.

Bad: To use credential store, one have to build own image and inclide docker CLI.

Good: It is described in Gitlab's documentation.

Bad: I've found it after two hours of experimenting.

Result: I can use private images during CI jobs now.

TIL: There is an easy way in ArgoCD UI how to create #Kubernets Job from Cronjob.

This is an easy way how to restart failed CronJobs.

#Today I was doing some tests on supposed-to-be isolated environments. It turned out this interacted indirectly with production environment. I realized this at that moment I was going to finish work for today. It was 4 PM, right?
Had to upgrade production environment in emergency mode (because it made itself half-upgraded anyway) in the evening, with unfinished configuration and suddenly received big wave of error notifications. It was so quick I almost didn't have time to be really scared. I am not sure what miracle let me fix that.
I didn't even plan to touch production today!

Schön zu sehen wie sich Renovate durch zahllose Releases frisst und Jenkins sowie BitBucket auf Trab hält. Dependency Management hat seinen Reiz, aber es nimmt zu viel Zeit ein. Solange alle Tests grün sind und das Monitoring still bleibt, darf Renovate fleißig weitermachen. Und ich schau gemütlich dabei zu 🙂 #AutomateAllTheThings in #DevOpsLife
