 das_j | does anyone here know what the altnr of a jobsetevalinput is? | 19:51:00 |
| das_j | Got it btw. This is used as when you have an input with the same name multiple times and it's part of the primary key. It's set to 0 normally | 22:38:58 |

| das_j | Perfect, something seems to set my umask to 18 in the evaluator… although there is no umask() call in the codebase :/ | 14:51:41 |
| das_j | grahamc (he/him): Btw, Hydra won't survive y2038 because timestamp has type integer (4 bytes) | 14:56:01 |
 @ulrikstrid:matrix.org | What is the correct way of building a nixosConfiguration? | 17:44:38 |

What is the correct way of building a nixosConfiguration? What do you mean exactly? A NixOS configuration with a hydra service? Your question sounds like it's about the flake output type. | 19:18:01 |

kenran_: is KVM enabled on your Hydra instance? It's in system-features, but that's probably not what you mean!? The machine is a VM in the cloud; I'll check tomorrow, but given that it takes 5 minutes to run this test I don't think it is :) | 19:19:24 |

 lewo | kenran_: having kvm in system-features is not enough to ensure Nix have enough permissions on /dev/kvm (if nested KVM is provided by your cloud provider) | 19:36:15 |

Is the building part just adding a hydraJobs.my-host.${system} = self.nixosConfigurations.my-host? | 19:36:28 |

kenran_: having kvm in system-features is not enough to ensure Nix have enough permissions on /dev/kvm (if nested KVM is provided by your cloud provider) Adding kvm to the system features is already wrong. Nix autodetects kvm and adds the feature | 19:36:46 |
| lewo | kenran_: and if KVM is not available, it can be pretty hard to get NixOS test working. | 19:37:08 |
