=== Jonny51 is now known as Jonny5 [00:09] zul: is the sru tracker working? [00:18] what is phy0 on ubuntu server? [00:20] wireless card [00:21] ah ok === Jonny51 is now known as Jonny5 === Jonny51 is now known as Jonny5 [00:55] good morning folks. I have previously installed ubuntu server 10.04 on a flash drive. However, the drive failed on me yesterday with mainly mount errors on /root and other directories. I have tried to use fdisk, fsck, e2fsck, and mke2fs to fix the superblocks with no luck. What else can I do? I am able to see the files on the flash drive when I plug it into another ubuntu desktop. [00:58] SpamapS: i think its in the processing of being moved ill look at it in a bit [00:59] I have a strange problem... ESXi reports that the server is useing more than its provisoned storage, but when I go into ubuntu, it reports useing less than 10% [01:13] SpamapS: give it half an hour its resyncing the database === ogra is now known as Guest2736 === Guest2736 is now known as ogra_ [01:59] SpamapS: ok its updated [02:18] Just created a new kvm guest. Tried to do a virsh shutdown 'vm1' but no response. Infact the guest doesn't seem to react to any command. Any ideas anyone? [02:19] host is a ubuntu server 10.10 and guest 10.04 [02:21] rnigam: start or destroy don't do anything? [02:24] pmatulis: Start and destroy work. Just checked. Wonder why shutdown doesn't [02:24] rnigam: I believe I have the same problem...I usually just do shutdown -h now inside the virtual machine. [02:34] thesheff17: someone at virt tells me it might be because acpid is not supported/cconfigured for the guest. No power control support enabled at the start up ! Wonder if we could do it in the xml config file ! [02:35] Also I now have a different prob... I tried to login to the console after following the thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1159220 and the guest froze on the "connected to domain vm1" screen now [02:35] nothing works! [02:35] rnigam: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/220938 [02:35] Launchpad bug 220938 in libvirt "unable to shutdown a guest domain " [Undecided,Invalid] [02:35] rnigam: yea I just confirmed it [02:35] rnigam: with 10.04 on 10.04 [02:36] there is also a bug where I have to change raw to qcow2 everytime...I'm sure there is another bug for that :-/ [02:37] ah let me try this acpid package...and see if it works. [02:42] rnigam: ah never mind I was just impatient..it works fine on 10.04 w/ 10.04 I'm using vmbuilder to build the instance and it does have that stuff in the xml file and acpid installed by default. [02:44] I pass it packages 'wget cron vim ntp ntpdate ssh xvfb build-essential linux-headers-virtual locate vpnc acpid clamav chkrootkit rkhunter puppet' during install...it has been a long time since I looked at my custom script. [02:48] how can I tell if a fs is ext2/3/4? [02:49] patdk-lap: /etc/fstab if it is mounted [02:49] heh? [02:50] fstab has nothing to do with if it's mounted [02:50] fstab only contains what you tell it [02:50] patdk-lap: well right :) [02:50] so completely useless [02:51] looks like ext3 [02:51] hi guys... i have an ubuntu 6.10 server.... I have some crons running on it(data backups)... how can i determine if these cron jobs completed successfully [02:51] logs in /var/log/syslog doesn't say if the cron completed [02:52] thesheff17: Did you try changing the setting in the guest xml config for getting the acpid running? is it working smoothly now? [02:53] rnigam: yea make sure you have acpid installed and that part of the xml file about [02:53] guys.. i need cron logs inorder to send out emails once backup cron jobs have completed [02:57] patdk-lap: file -s /dev/sdc1 should tell you :) [02:57] what is the easiest way to send cmd line emails using ubuntu?

How do I install it using virsh.? [03:00] is it possible? [03:00] rnigam: you have to get inside the vm...then apt-get install acpid or do it when you build the vm. [03:01] thesheff17:I am not getting the console also to the guest ? any suggestions on what all I can try out? [03:01] rnigam: I actually have never used the console..I have either used ssh or virt-manager. I'm looking to see if I can get in my mv through the console command. [03:01] rnigam: I have used virsh...just not the console command. [03:04] thesheff17: I am running a server edition of ubuntu that doesnt have GUI display [03:05] virt-manager or virt-viewer would not work I believe ! [03:05] rnigam: true..I have a ton of ubuntu desktops laying around. [03:08] thesheff17: Anyway we can specify the ipaddress for the guest while creating it? [03:08] rnigam: yea of course [03:08] i used vmbuilder ! [03:08] while creating it [03:10] rnigam: http://paste.ubuntu.com/577294/ here is my very long command I use a script to build all the params.

[03:11] ahh i see ! [03:12] rnigam: http://paste.ubuntu.com/577295/ my boot.sh with my key removed. [03:13] rnigam: I'm still looking at the console stuff...I would like to get that to work...one day I may not have a GUI :) [03:13] thesheff17: that's one ugly way of creating vm's. We need to quickly work on writing config scripts that can do it ! [03:14] to work around the paramters easily ! [03:14] rnigam: I build my virtual machines through a python script. [03:14] that generate that huge long command [03:14] ya i was writing a shell script now [03:18] rnigam: I'm also starting to look into http://www.eucalyptus.com/ I have done a ton of work with boto on the EC2 cloud...and the boto EC2 library is great. I have used virsh and vmbuilder for years now though with great success. [03:21] thesheff17: interesting. I would love to experiment some stuff over the ec2 cloud. [03:22] for now I have to go. Thanks for all your help. See you around. [03:22] hello. I'm currently trying to reduce the size of my ubuntu-server. It's a VM and unfortunately the size has been allocated so I can't reduce it. Is there a way to backup an entire image of the server using something like dd backup that would create a backup image smaller than the actual server HD size? (only used space) [03:22] rnigam: see ya [03:26] cn1209: are you using virsh? [03:27] thesheff17: No. I'm using VMWare ESXi [03:28] cn1209: haven't used vmware ESXi...though there should be a tool to do it build into vmware. I used to use vmware 1.x free version and there was a command to shrink the virtual machine when it was off....not to many people here actually use vmware anymore. [03:30] twister004: I use this perl script to call sendmail from the command line: http://paste.ubuntu.com/577300/ [03:31] thesheff17: Unfortunately the image has been set to a certain size. So I believe the only way would be to shrink it within ubuntu. With that said, I wonder if I make a backup image within ubuntu; is the backup image going to be only the size of the used space and not the entire physical drive size? [03:33] thesheff17: sendmail is not running on the machine.... I have an exchange server in the same subnet(windows)... can I use some mail client to relay messages through this server?> [03:33] twister004: yea sendmail support a relayhost param...can you not run sendmail? [03:33] thesheff17: whenever I use cmd line to send mail.. I get the following message when I execute 'mailq' [03:34] il paste the error === c0nv1ct_ is now known as c0nv1ct [03:34] cn1209: I would just backup the valuable data and re-create the vm with the drive size you want...that would be the safest option. [03:35] thesheff17: http://pastebin.com/QPH4caNV [03:36] thesheff17: That'll work. Was just trying to skip that process :). But that will get the job done. thanks [03:36] thesheff17: any idea what's going on?? [03:37] cn1209: look at the vmware ESXi shrink command [03:37] cn1209: what I would do inside the vm is wipe the rest of the drive with 1's using dd then try to use shrink. [03:39] hggdh, i'm sorry.. i was wrong about karmic. karmic don't have a kernel inside the images so the quick trick I tried (just putting a /boot/grub/menu.lst in the image) is not sufficient [03:39] twister004: I would watch the /var/log/mail.log I bet the relayhost isn't working correctly [03:41] thesheff17: its the same error on the logs [03:42] twister004: have you configured sendmail? I would also try postfix if you are not familiar with sendmail. [03:43] thesheff17: how can i use postfix to send mail via cmd line? [03:43] :D [03:43] i dont know much about postfix [03:44] twister004: postfix I believe still uses sendmail..to send yea...I don't know a ton about this...just enough to send emails using that perl script. [03:46] twister004: so try apt-get install postfix and add relayhost = xxx.xx.xx.xx /etc/postfix/main.cf restart postfix and try that perl script and see what the logs say. === robbiew1 is now known as robbiew === MTecknology is now known as MT-TakinBreak [05:23] hi guys, playing with ubuntu on ec2 for the first time... wondering if there was a trick to the IP setup. i've given it an elastic IP, but getting this error on "service apache start" [05:23] (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 [06:06] kunal_: are you running as root or sudo? === twister004_ is now known as twister004 [08:47] Congratulations Daviey! [08:50] Hi all, a small question: I noticed that ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS has quite old libvirt versions (libvir 0.7.5) which lacks many functions, like managedsave or snapshotting. What's the recommended way to get the latest versions there? [08:51] ((ubuntu 10.10 has libir 0.8.3 which incorporates snapshotting etc)) [08:52] jdepi: first look into backports to see if the version you want is there [08:52] I'm a little concerned to run critical VMs on a non-LTS version... What is your opinion about this? [08:53] jdepi: if it is not, then you have 3 choices: 1-upgrade to 10.10, 2-wait until next LTS(12.04), 3-Mess around with packages [08:53] jdepi: I would have the same concerns as you [08:53] thanks :-) but not very comforting [08:54] jdepi: but only if I know I won't be upgrading that machine in the next 12month [08:54] nijaba: i don't quite understand what you want to say? [08:54] jdepi: non LTS versions are as stable as LTS ones, they just have a shorter life cycle [08:54] aha [08:54] ok, sorry, of course [08:55] nijaba: it's 'just' a VM host, which will run our business's mail server (W2003-DOMINO) as a KVM [08:57] jdepi: I see... try to discuss whith hallyn when he is around, as he has been doing most of the KVM/qemu maintenance since 10.04 [08:57] grr, I'm not seeing 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN after running ehlo mail.mydomain.com on telenet [08:58] all settings are done according to https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/postfix.html [08:59] I get only this: http://pastebin.com/XUAwnaPA [09:00] nijaba: thanks, i'll try [09:02] Tried checking the logs ClaudiuT? [09:10] nijaba: backports doesn't offer me an upgrade for libvirt :-( so i'll upgrade to 10.10 === erichammond1 is now known as erichammond [09:34] http://karlsbakk.net/nfs-debug/ <-- anyone here that knows what may be the problem with the andy-urd-debug.pcap? server 'andy', running linux, is losing contact with the nfs server, which is running OI 148. I can't figure out who to blame - client or server. A correct mount is shown in door-urd-debug.pcap [09:41] hi there [09:42] hwo can i force aptitude to remove mysql-server including config and databases? [09:42] i want to restore the state wher it was out of the box before i touched mysql package [09:45] memoryleak: `aptitude purge` should do the trick [09:46] but it doesn't [09:46] still have /var/lib/mysql/* and /etc/mysql/* [09:46] and after reinstall it doesn't ask for a new root password [09:47] if i remove theme manually, mysql doesn't start after reinstall because of missing configuration (it doesn't create a new config) [09:48] so is there a way to fix this? [09:49] sounds like a bug to me [09:49] have you checked the launchpad bugtracker for the mysql-server package? [09:49] if there's no bugreport for this, you might want to create one [09:51] it seems that other ppl have this issue too [10:07] hi, how would i go about dns and international chars in domain names? for example where do i park a domain : čubuntu.si for example? [10:15] brontosaurusrex, can you clarify what you want to do? [10:16] brontosaurusrex, You want to do something with a nameserver, or a parking provider? [10:17] Daviey: well, it appears i have to park it to some dns provider, and it appears that i have to use punycode encoding , would that sound right? [10:17] Daviey: this squid problem seems to be mostly due to restart being a really, really awful command in upstart. :-/ [10:21] brontosaurusrex, yes... and example of this http://☃.daviey.com which is really xn--n3h.daviey.com [10:21] SpamapS, urg [10:22] SpamapS, We haven't had as many hits as 12.1... Does this mean that it doesn't hit everyone? [10:23] Daviey: the problem is that the 'restart' command that is used doesn't actually reload the new squid.conf [10:23] Daviey: so its a problem, I think, thats been ticking away like a time bomb waiting for an SRU.. [10:23] Daviey: once people have installed 12.1 *and* stopped/started the service, all is well. [10:23] SpamapS, so does this need an upstart SRU to do that, or do we need to work around it? [10:24] There's no fix for upstart. [10:24] Daviey: right, any weirdness i can expect with apache and virtual hosts? [10:24] brontosaurusrex, no [10:24] Daviey: no we need to fix the squid maintainer scripts to call stop/start instead of restart [10:24] Daviey: cool, thanks [10:24] brontosaurusrex, the browser sends the normal domain, not wacky chars :) [10:24] SpamapS, ah [10:25] Daviey: i should define the host as whacky or as 'normal' in apache? [10:25] Daviey: bug 726348 was opened a bit ago to address that... but it hasn't been triaged yet. [10:25] Launchpad bug 726348 in squid "squid's maintainer scripts call start/stop directly instead of using invoke-rc.d" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/726348 [10:25] brontosaurusrex, 'normal' :) [10:25] ok, ty :) [10:25] Daviey: I think I'll go ahead and submit a fix for that. [10:25] brontosaurusrex, not that i have tried putting punycode there... it /might/ work.. [10:26] SpamapS, Rockstar! [10:26] Daviey: unfortunately I think we've cocked up a few peoples' servers quite nicely with this circus. :-/ [10:28] SpamapS, Yeah, kinda embarrassing.. :)... but to be fair, i found it quite hard to reproduce the behaviour myself [10:28] and 12.2 worked fine for me :/ [10:28] and... seems to have worked for lots of others, otherwise they would have reported it again [10:28] AIUI the bug reports are for those going from 12->12.2 ... [10:29] Right, I've even tried loading up a squid proxy with 5 big downloads.. the restart seems to work. The only confusing thing is that it doesn't run squid w/ -N .. so the bug is still present even after upgrade [10:29] SpamapS, Those that upgraded from 12.1 would have already restarted squid, hence got the new upstart conf :) [10:29] Daviey: well, not restarted... they'd have had to do a stop/start [10:29] Hey all! [10:30] Daviey: keybuk explained that restart is used to do basically a forced respawn. [10:30] Could someone please help me with setting up postfix & dovecot? [10:30] Daviey: its not supposed to start a new job file (which is really, really weird and totally different from sysvinit scripts) [10:30] SpamapS, oh yeah [10:30] SpamapS, ho hum [10:32] SpamapS, you should surely be asleep? TZ fun? [10:32] Daviey: still chasing the jetlag dragon [10:32] SpamapS, living the dream, clearly. [10:33] * SpamapS hums Mighty Wingman [10:48] Hrm.. so I'm basically reverting squid v 2.7.STABLE7-1ubuntu12 at this point.. I wonder if that will reintroduce bug 552360 [10:48] Launchpad bug 552360 in squid "package squid 2.7.STABLE7-1ubuntu11 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/552360 [10:49] argh.. which has zero explanation of the analysis [10:56] SpamapS, Awesome.

There will be 3 people accessing the machines. What is the best way to manage user accounts / passwords to keep in sync between all six machines? [12:38] hi folks! Not sure this is really the right channel, but I guess there's a few RAID gurus in here. I'm having two OCZ Vertex 2 120GB SSD disks in RAID0 (striping!) as my only system disk. But sometimes (randomly afaict) it can't assemble them corrently at boot. Ubuntu asks me if I'd like to start the system degraded, how that's possible on striping.. :) [12:39] According to dmesg, both sda1 and sdb1 (which becomes my md0) is found, but still it doesn't assemble them on boot. [12:40] Running mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 manually from busybox have no trouble assembling them. [12:40] Any ideas? [12:42] speakman: are they both partition type FD? [12:53] SpamapS: yepp, linux raid autodetect [12:53] It does work too, but it's fails randomly. About two out of three times I have to reboot and try again. [12:55] Sometimes I think it might need a tiny delay somewhere in the boot process. But I'm not really sure where to put it. And how. [12:55] weird [12:55] yes, very [12:56] the kernel should be handling that IIRC.. i wonder if we do something silly w/ mdadm to foil that [12:57] Running "mdadm --assemble /dev/md0" from the busybox prompt which shows up if boot fail, it has no problem assembling my raid setup. [12:57] dmesg also tells me both disks (and partitions) are present [12:58] yeah so i wonder if we are doing something odd like storing a stale config in the initrd [12:59] it's a fresh install of ubuntu maverick. Every setup has been made during installation. [12:59] not sure what you refer to as stale config? [13:13] hm.. isn't configfs built into ubuntu kernel? [13:18] speakman: yes, but you could have a conflicting mdadm.conf [13:18] speakman: you may want to report this as a bug [13:18] * SpamapS notes that mdadm has a *lot* of bug noise and needs some serious triage love.. :-P [13:19] :( [13:19] SpamapS: but how could mdadm.conf be conflicting? I can find only one entry in there. [13:19] wanna see it? [13:20] smoser, it was worth a try [13:20] ? [13:20] me? [13:21] hggdh, yeah, sorry i didn't realize that. [13:21] speakman: no I'm just speculating [13:21] i think we should just live with karmic as is for 3 months [13:21] i will build a -proposed for karmic for you hggdh (should have done that yesterday) [13:21] smoser, thank you, and no worries [13:23] it took just over 6 hours yesterday and i just started "right now" [13:39] smoser: can you run the meeting today?

[16:09] ivoks: it has been more than half an hour now.. [16:09] I can ping it, but cannot ssh [16:09] progre55: then something went wrong with booting [16:09] progre55: no open ports? [16:10] ivoks: The following NEW packages will be installed because they are better than vim: [16:10] emacs [16:10] * SpamapS would like to let the record show that he is a vim user ;) [16:10] ivoks: nope =( [16:10] progre55: then something went wrong with booting [16:10] * progre55 is a vim user, too [16:10] ivoks: sux =( I'll never try upgrading production servers again.. ever1 [16:11] ! [16:11] prodcution servers have ipmi [16:11] ipmi? [16:11] ipmi is good [16:11] yes, serial over lan [16:11] or some other lights out management [16:11] lets you easily fix anything [16:12] ipmi/ilo/drac/.... [16:12] hmm.. I'll try asking our service provider if they have ipmi [16:12] but if you haven't heard of that, then it probably isn't configured :) [16:12] oh, no it's not ) [16:13] maybe your service provider knows better [16:14] if it's in datacenter, you might just get lucky :) [16:14] even if it's not enabled, your should be able to tell in lshw if it's installed [16:14] yeah it is in a datacenter.. and one of the datacenter admins promised to physically drive there and try restarting it.. [16:15] restarting probably won't help [16:16] you need someone that understands 'white text on blank screen' [16:16] black [16:16] patdk-wk: I dont see anything related to the keywords "ipmi" running lshw =) [16:16] ivoks: yeah the guy does.. and hope he's kind enough to try fixing it =) [16:16] progre55: what server is that? dell, sun, hp? [16:17] me neither, let me check what it's called [16:17] home made? [16:17] honestly, dont know.. I just have remote access to it [16:17] ivoks: not home-made though, it's a hosting by cybercom [16:17] hosted by* [16:18] hmm, lshw doesn't show it, how strange [16:18] ipmi-locate :) [16:19] let me try that.. [16:19] or.. are you just kidding? =) [16:19] no [16:19] IPMI Version: 1.5 [16:19] IPMI locate driver: DEFAULT [16:19] IPMI interface: KCS [16:19] seems I have 4 interfaces to ipmi in this system [16:19] oh.. well, I dont even have that command, so I'm guessing, no ipmi for me then =) [16:20] well, you have to install the ipmi package [16:20] it's in freeipmi-tools [16:21] openipmi-tools [16:21] I had issues with openipmi on this system [16:21] ups [16:21] i don't use it at all [16:22] I mainly use it to monitor fan/temp/volts [16:23] ah, here is a way without installing anything: dmidecode --type 38 [16:24] so, if it says "FAILED" on all the points, does it mean ipmi is not installed? ) [16:24] most likely [16:24] ipmi is a device; you can't really install it [16:24] you need to buy it :) [16:24] well I mean, attached [16:24] or, set up [16:24] ivoks, depends [16:24] motherboard must have support [16:25] some motherboards the ipmi stuff comes as an extra addon, but most times it's built in if it's supported [16:26] on supermicro, it can be installed later [16:26] EOD :) [16:27] well, thanks guys, appreciate [16:27] I'll go convince the management to buy ipmi =) [16:28] hello there [16:28] ilo2 if you want to be really lazy :) [16:28] i can't ssh to my server [16:29] this is the error what i got : ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host [16:29] during the authentification session [16:41] I have a new volume mapped to a certain location... how do I get all the specific details to add it to fstab? [16:42] just emulate whats aleady in fstab [16:43] you know the /dev/x and the filesystem, etc? [16:45] compdoc: I know it is /dev/sdb1 and is ext3 [16:45] a lot of ppl use the UUID instead, because the /dev/x can change when you add drives, etc [16:46] I guess I'm also curious about what options to flag in fstab for this new volume. [16:46] hell, mine change each reboot (damned usb flash card reader) [16:46] patdk-wk: this is for that iSCSI volume I connected to yesterday. [16:46] blkid [16:46] copy uuid into fstab [16:46] everything else you should probably know [16:47] actually I don't know what the options should be. [16:47] options? [16:47] well, what options did you use when you manually mounted it? [16:47] mount -o xxxxxx [16:47] I didn't use any options [16:47] then just say, defaults [16:48] do you need fstab for iscsi volumes? been a while since I used iscsi [16:48] compdoc, have to mount them somehow [16:48] and all filesystems should be in fstab, as far as I care [16:49] last time was when I accidently connected to an iscsi that was already connected to another server - screwed up the volume [16:49] compdoc, fix your iscsi target permissions then :) [16:50] Hi [16:50] or use a filesystem that is made for that :) [16:50] naw, I dont really need iscsi, as it turns out [16:50] too dangerous [16:51] I am not even sure if this is the best IRC-channel for my questions. Where should I post questions on Ubuntu and ISPconfig 3? [16:52] Magnus: I'd probably aim for the ISPconfig forums or mailing list. [16:52] I can't find ispconfig in ubuntu [16:54] It's something I found in How-to forge. http://www.howtoforge.com [16:54] hmm, ispconfigs idea of a perfect server and mine conflict [16:55] I guessed that much: that ISPconfig isn't the good system for everyone [16:56] I was aiming for a simple webmin system, but since it have been abandoned, I have to find a new. [16:56] New bug: #731437 in dhcp3 (universe) "DHCP Client does not read search domain list" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/731437 [16:57] I have found that ISPconfig doesn't update well. [16:59] Does anyone of You know of SysCP? [17:00] Magnus: if you are looking for a hosting control panel, you might want to take a look at http://froxlor.org [17:01] patdk-wk: any tips on auto-connecting the iSCSI mount? [17:01] apparently adding to fstab doesn't help if the drive doesn't mount... oops! [17:01] Thanks! Any advice is helpful. The only thing I really need is a good manual of all operations. I hate making a manual myself for anyone else working on the system. [17:02] zul: ping [17:03] oneseventeen, hmm, in my cases, it always auto-connected on boot [17:03] I thought the iscsi software automatically conencted to volumes at boot [17:07] patdk-wk: I'm connecting via iscsiadm -m node --targetname {targetname} --portal {portal IP} -l [17:07] do I need to do anything other than that? [17:07] noob question: how do I mount based on fstab? [17:08] bye [17:09] mount -a [17:09] it was on my screen, just had to read it.. [17:21] ouch!!!! [17:22] I set iscsiadm to autoconnect and it attempting autoconnecting to ALL volumes! [17:42] kirkland: people.canonical.com/~serge/qemu-kvm-0.14.0+noroms-package.tgz is what i'm thinking of uploading [17:43] hallyn: congrads on the shiny new upload privs :-) [17:45] kirkland: last i checked they were not yet in effect :( [17:45] but thanks :) [17:48] hallyn: i can't look at it this moment, but i will, if you like, before uploading [17:49] kirkland: thanks. I assume I need to file an FFE in any case? [17:57] hi [17:57] is ubuntu also free for black ppl ? [18:01] * RoAkSoAx off to lunch === MT-TakinBreak is now known as MTecknology [18:20] * hallyn out for lunch [18:22] RoAkSoAx: http://robhirschfeld.com/2011/03/08/unboxing-openstack-clouds/ is what I was talking about previously [18:23] no reason it has to do OpenStack, it's a framework for bare-metal to bios to provisioned operating system [18:23] uses PXE [18:44] mray: let's see... [18:50] mray: interesting indeed [18:50] I believe next month is when it finally goes open source (apache2) at the OpenStack Design Summit [18:51] cool zul will be there === shennyg_ is now known as shennyg [19:02] <_ruben> holy crap .. find -exec rm {} \; sure doesn't seem to be a very fast solution .. 7.5 hrs and still going .. all it needs to do is delete 3 milion files totalling 17G [19:12] New bug: #731528 in squid (main) "package squid 2.7.STABLE7-1ubuntu12.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/731528 === shennyg_ is now known as shennyg [19:33] _ruben: sometimes mkfs is faster :) [19:35] <_ruben> hallyn: haha, i'll be sure to try that next time ;) [19:41] s/sometimes/most of the time/ [19:47] <_ruben> SpamapS: it kinda depends on "certain overheads" to achieve a given goal i guess [19:49] _ruben: right, I'd say its at a few hundred files/directories, or a few hundred MB of data where mkfs becomes faster. [19:49] <_ruben> bugger .. the recovery option on the server cd only offers a busybox shell .. no apt/ssh/whatever [19:50] _ruben: you can mount your filesystems and get most of that. [19:50] <_ruben> SpamapS: not when it's vm with empty disks .. the contents of the disks i'll be transfering off another box [19:51] <_ruben> (migrating old legacy system from phys to virt) [19:52] SpamapS: hey [19:52] <_ruben> i really oughta setup a pxe/nfs environment for stuff like this [19:52]
