Join us at the Booz Allen Hamilton offices in Herndon, VA for the first ManageIQ meetup. Learn about the latest features under development in Botvinnik as well as how Booz Allen extended ManageIQ with the Jellyfish cloud broker project.

This is recording of the Sprint 16 report from Wednesday, Dec 3. To see the newest features from this sprint, download the latest bleeding edge Botvinnik image.

It’s that time again - today at 10:30am EST is the latest sprint report. If you’re interested in hearing what’s on the roadmap, you’ll want to join us on a web conference.

Here is a lab I put together for a recent event, it was well received and I think it is very valuable to the ManageIQ and CloudForms user bases. In the lab you will GET and POST RESTapi actions. Its a basic look at some common use cases such as, Query a VM’s hardware inventory. Read the rest

Here is the list of GEMs and their info that are included in the CLOUDFORMS 5.3.0 appliance. I thought it would be useful to post, I need this recently for some work I am doing.

The ManageIQ Depot will be where community members can collaborate, share and download extensions and other software developed for the ManageIQ hybrid cloud management platform. I made a quick video showing how to grab the latest depot code from GitHub, add your extension, and then test it locally before issuing a pull request to add it to the git repository.

Earlier this week, we mentioned moving to ruby 2 on our github repository and in travis-ci for testing. Ruby 2 nightly build appliances based on sprint 15 are available here.

With the recent announcement of Amazon’s AWS Config service, there is a Pull Request to integrate with it. The integration will allow ManageIQ to use the AWS Config service as an event source to our Amazon Provider. These events can be used to drive many things inside ManageIQ, including inventory refreshes, policies and automate workflows. Once this Pull Request is merged, our appliance (which is built nightly) will have that functionality incorporated. Until then, if you want to play with the proposed integration, take the code changes from the pull request and integrate them into your appliance or development environment.

We are happy to announce that we are moving forward with the ManageIQ Extensions Depot! The Extensions Depot is a place for the ManageIQ Community to share policies, dialogs, state machines and other items of interest to the greater community.
