Symmetriawow08:58
Symmetrianever in my life 08:58
Symmetriahave I ever seen a sleeping tablet as strong as the stuff the doc told me to take last night08:58
Symmetriaholy fuck08:58
Symmetriawithin 30 minutes of taking that stuff, I couldnt walk, passed out, woke up 14 hours later08:58
froztbyteI'd be tempted to check that out, but it still wouldn't fix my sleeping issues :(08:59
Owkkuriheh, anti-histamines do that to me 08:59
Owkkuri*nom*, pass out09:00
inetproSymmetria: sounds like you needed it09:17
Cantide'<09:58
superflyOwkkuri: have you tried a loratadine based anti-histamine?10:00
OwkkuriI should get something that doesn't knock me out10:00
Owkkurifirst time I've ever had to take them.10:00
Owkkurigetting hayfever from my cat :<10:00
superflyOwkkuri: stuff like allergex knocks me out, but loratadine seems to work and not put me to sleep10:01
Owkkurithanks superfly10:03
Owkkuriaye it's allergex that hits me for a six10:03

sakhiis there a way to enable application monitoring with snmp?10:23
froztbyte"yes"10:24
froztbyteyou already have a process tree available10:24
froztbytesearch for prTable with your mib browser of choice10:24
sakhiat the moment I can see memory, network, CPU, disk...10:25
sakhicool let me do that.10:25
froztbyte"see"?10:25
froztbytedo you mean cacti?10:25
sakhiZenOSS and another Proof Of Concept application (commercial) Eye of the storm.10:26
froztbytegive zenoss an ssh key, it'll map out processes automatically10:26
froztbyteif you want to add anything, go to /Classes/Processes and define one there, then remodel your device10:27
froztbyteactually now that you mention it, I can't remember whether the process list tracks prTable as well10:29
froztbytehttp://community.zenoss.org/docs/DOC-4810#d0e418010:34
sakhiClasses gives more options. (applications and devices) 10:34
* sakhi takes a look.10:34
froztbytelooks like it uses prTable, so just make sure your snmpd config includes HOST-RESOURCES10:36
froztbytehttp://www.skills-1st.co.uk/papers/jane/process_monitoring.pdf is another good link10:38
froztbytewhy are you looking at other things than zabbix? I thought you liked it?10:39
sakhi:) I do like it. There is a POC which has the same look and feel as ZenOSS and the vendor is running it on Windows. I'm not sure how it works yet their guy wants to monitor applications and prove that its the best thing since cheese cake.10:42
froztbytezabbix is a piece of shit10:43
froztbytebut we've done this before, so *shrug*10:44
* sakhi leans towards ZenOSS instead of eye of the tiger10:45
* sakhi *leans towards ZenOSS instead of eye of the storm10:45
Symmetriahrm10:54
Symmetriasomeone gimme an awk print string that allows me to display a ' literal character in the output10:54
Symmetriaso like |awk '{print("'blah'")}'10:55
Symmetriawhich doesnt work cause it doesnt like ' 10:55
Symmetriaand escaping it doesnt seem to work10:55
linuxboyawk '{print("\x27" "blah" "\x27")}c'10:57
Symmetriaaahh thanks :)11:00
Symmetriathat helps11:00
linuxboynext time LBGTFY11:03
Symmetria:P if I had the time and inclination I would try and figure out what the fuck that acronym meant11:03
linuxboyLet Bing Google That For You11:04
linuxboy(also, you should have googled that)11:04
drubinlinuxboy: You can't say the word Bing in this channel ;)11:06
linuxboydrubin: its an alias for google11:07
drubinSince when..11:07
drubinjust because they steal results doesn't mean we can replace the word Google with Bing11:07
nuvolaribing rhymes with sting, sling, fling, ring, teeing. Sounds way worse than "google" :P12:10
maiatodaybing reminds me of the sound sensored radio makes when a swear word is said, or maybe that is beep12:13
* nlsthzn cannot fathom the reason behind a name like bing either (then again, neither can I figure out a name like Google)13:45
Owkkurinlsthzn: I think a google is 1 with 100 zeroes13:49
Owkkuri1e10013:49
superflyOwkkuri: actually a "googol" is a 1 with 100 zeroes13:49
superfly"google" is a play on "googol"13:49
Owkkuriah yes superfly13:49
Owkkuri:P13:49
nlsthznah, thx :)13:49
* Symmetria bounces around13:58
SymmetriaExtending tenet's network to amsterdam :) YAY!13:58
sakhiamsterdam thats good news14:27
tumbleweedsuperfly, drubin: BTW I moved the ubuntu-za cronjob around half an hour (it was running at the same time as CLUG Park), and set MaxRequestsPerChild 10, and everything seems fine now15:51
drubintumbleweed: woohoo15:53
tumbleweedthat max requests will obvious take a toll, but who cares about performance :P15:54
tumbleweedobviously15:54
tumbleweeddrubin: I'd still like to see http://ubuntu-za.org/admin/reports/updates whittled down15:55
