Zenoss ZenTech Community

Given the age of the information on community.zenoss.org, I am looking to delete it sometime during the next 30 days. If there is information you need, please archive it locally, or copy it over to the wiki.

THIS WOULD BE A REALLY BAD IDEA.

Just because some of it is old does not make most of it irrelevant. Much of it is extremely valuable.

We cannot archive this stuff in the next 30 days as we are away for most of them.

Repo: https://github.com/monitoringartist/community.zenoss.org
GH pages: http://monitoringartist.github.io/community.zenoss.org/

It's a static archive of community.zenoss.org - don't expect full functionality, but it archives all messages (6.7k) and docs.
+ full text search (Github Elastic search) is there as well.

Fell free to create pull request.

Jan,

I can give you access to the whole filesystem if it will help.

I'm with Jane on this, I still find myself searching for things that pop up in these old threads.

I had trouble searching through Jan's repo. Having this history is very helpful, it would be a real shame if it were to disappear.

So the old site is going to disappear. Please, everyone, work with Jan to make sure that his archive has what you need.

If you absolutely can't lose it, please copy it to the wiki.

Public 2 GB Docker image (not supported, not documented) https://hub.docker.com/r/monitoringartist/community-zenoss-org/

All files of current community.zenoss.org (static snapshot) are there. Anyone can download and use it. Nginx server is available there as well, so you can publish port 80:

docker run -d -p 80:80 monitoringartist/community-zenoss-org:raw

Absolute links are used => you will need to add host record of community.zenoss.org into your hosts file.

Now we can kill old community.zenoss.org (+ Internet Explorer 6, SHA 1 certificates, ....).
Valuable content is still available for the community. Presentation layer can be still improved (relatives links, removing of needless js, custom search, ...).

Stats:

root@40b6fe1ef04c:/usr/share/nginx/html# find . -type f | wc -l
125957 files (9.9GB)

root@40b6fe1ef04c:/usr/share/nginx/html# find ./message/ -type f | wc -l

root@40b6fe1ef04c:/usr/share/nginx/html# find ./docs/ -type f | wc -l

This is missing the point! Now instead of googling a question, I have to search two places! One being a ridiculous setup of where I run a webserver internally. And for anyone who doesn't have this repo downloaded and running won't have access to years of community discussion.

All,

I have been announcing that this day would come for over 2 years now. I've mentioned it on IRC during meetings, and mentioned it here. The reality is that that day is here. The site has our old logo, VERY old and outdated assets and information, and it is being crawled by google. There is a viable and valid solution if you still need access to the data thanks to Jan.

Just today I'd like to view a resource that's linking to the old wiki, it's on this page (http://wiki.zenoss.org/ZenPack:UPS-MIB_based_UPSs), there are links to http://community.zenoss.org/docs/DOC-11952

I can't find the zipped attachements even in Jan's mirror. Anyone can find a copy or point me to it

If you need more (search, ...), then please make it instead of complaining.

It seems to me that the zip files where unavailable before jan downloaded the site, because the path "servlet/JiveServlet/download/11952-2-5552/ZenPacks.community.upsCS1x1-2.0-py2.6.EGG.zip" doesn't exist (there is no download folder in the repo) and the zip file can't be found.

I'll have to create the zenpack from scratch I guess

Jan has access to all the data we were able to scrape from the old site. Unfortunately that is somewhat limited because of the proprietary nature of our old site. Two years ago I used wget to retrieve as much data as I could.
