Maaz | Bitteschön | 09:26 |
charl | been busy playing with docker yesterday | 09:29 |
charl | am very impressed | 09:30 |
theblzhe | charl, great! | 09:30 |
charl | i see great potential in automating operations | 09:30 |
theblzhe | From what I can tell docker is for more permenant "VMs" than vagrant, and uses containers, correct? | 09:30 |
charl | great for software developers, deployments become a dream | 09:30 |
charl | theblzhe: i think it's a mistake to try and compare docker to VMs, that's often made | 09:31 |
charl | docker is a real container system and simply encaptulates an applicatoin and all its dependencies in a sandbox | 09:31 |
charl | *application | 09:32 |
theblzhe | Well it's for application containerisation, right? | 09:32 |
charl | yes | 09:32 |
theblzhe | yeah | 09:32 |
charl | so from a developer standpoint it has major benefits | 09:32 |
theblzhe | yeah | 09:32 |
charl | from an operations perspective too because you can simply move containers around between servers as needed | 09:34 |
charl | and even service discovery is taken care of | 09:34 |
charl | i don't know how flexible it really is yet, i think it's too new | 09:34 |
charl | but i like where this is going | 09:34 |
theblzhe | no downtime? like vMotion? | 09:34 |
theblzhe | heard of what CoreOS released yesterday IIRC? | 09:34 |
charl | yes rocket | 09:34 |
charl | i was just looking at it | 09:35 |
theblzhe | worth me having a look at? | 09:35 |
charl | well worth everyone who developers applications or runs servers looking at imho | 09:35 |
charl | docker is new, rocket is still *very* new | 09:35 |
charl | docker has a lot of traction and VMware is now also busy with it | 09:36 |
charl | it might have limitations but those will get solved in coming years | 09:36 |
charl | especially if heavyweights like vmware are throwing themselves into it | 09:36 |
charl | rocket is unlikely to get that much traction anytime soon but hey | 09:36 |
charl | it's impossible to know the future :) | 09:37 |
theblzhe | ooh, hopefully we get some vmware integration. Set up ESXi yesterday | 09:40 |
theblzhe | yeah | 09:40 |
charl | vsphere? | 09:40 |
theblzhe | yeah | 09:40 |
theblzhe | 60 day trial FTW | 09:40 |
charl | vsphere is ok but have you taken a look at the new xen stuff | 09:40 |
theblzhe | nah? | 09:41 |
theblzhe | Thought that was all CLI based? | 09:41 |
charl | open source xen, not that citrix crap | 09:41 |
theblzhe | http://www.xenserver.org/ ? | 09:41 |
charl | yes it has a very nice gui console too | 09:42 |
theblzhe | windows only management from what I can tell? | 09:42 |
charl | that's the problem :( | 09:43 |
charl | that's an old xen legacy that i don't like | 09:43 |
theblzhe | yeah, with VMware with vSphere server, you get web console | 09:43 |
charl | vmware has been very good in that regard | 09:44 |
theblzhe | Just hope their web interface is better than Proxmox VE.. | 09:44 |
charl | i haven't tried their new web interface yet, only the desktop app (also windows) | 09:45 |
theblzhe | alright | 09:45 |
charl | vsphere client does run on gnu/linux too though | 09:45 |
theblzhe | vSphere server download almost done here | 09:45 |
theblzhe | it does?! | 09:46 |
theblzhe | https://www.google.co.za/search?q=vshhere+client+linux&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=nts&gfe_rd=cr&ei=6Nt-VPnPJ8eDUMPxgpAF#rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=nts&q=vsphere+client+linux&spell=1 wine? | 09:46 |
charl | that's strange, i saw some screenshots of it running on gnu/linux | 09:47 |
charl | one sec | 09:47 |
theblzhe | maybe vEMan? | 09:48 |
charl | sorry my bad, turns out it was a wine job | 09:48 |
charl | that's sad :( | 09:48 |
theblzhe | ah, alright | 09:48 |
charl | yeah then it isn't a clear advantage over xen unless you can run a web interface | 09:49 |
charl | wb blazehen | 09:49 |
blazehen | I think hexchat just crashed... | 09:49 |
blazehen | ty | 09:49 |
charl | have you tried xen orchestra ? | 09:51 |
charl | pity that's a commercial product | 09:51 |
blazehen | nope.. | 09:51 |
charl | there was another good interface i saw the other day.. let me try and find it | 09:51 |
charl | ah yes, ovirt | 09:52 |
blazehen | ah, wanted to try that.. | 09:52 |
blazehen | VM machine at home has a buggy bios however.. | 09:52 |
charl | doesn't look as polished as vsphere web client though :( | 09:52 |
blazehen | ah | 09:52 |
blazehen | Might be defficult to get it to boot | 09:53 |
blazehen | Also needs support for VMs on NFS.. | 09:53 |
charl | i'm reading this blog post about rocket now and don't get a feel they have a strong case for throwing docker out | 09:58 |
charl | their real complaint seems to be that docker is getting too complex but that's ridiculous | 09:59 |
charl | security is a valid concern though | 09:59 |
Squirm | We're moving towards docker afaik | 11:14 |
Squirm | still new at all of this | 11:14 |
magespawn | bbl cheers | 11:38 |
charl | Squirm: same here :) | 11:57 |
Squirm | sat in on an online course on ansible last night | 12:01 |
Squirm | was quite cool | 12:01 |
Squirm | was just a live presentation | 12:02 |
jrgns | I think I sat through the same one a couple of months back | 12:03 |
jrgns | it's quite kewl, much simpler than puppet / chef | 12:04 |
Kilos | hmm... | 14:58 |
* blazehen looks at lack of jobs available without experience.. /me looks at strength of thing where light goes out of roof.. /me looks back at job list... | 15:40 | |
blazehen | FML | 15:40 |
Kilos | lol | 15:41 |
blazehen | not really :( | 15:42 |
Kilos | its hard to get into places from the bottom up | 15:50 |
Kilos | speak to graeme tomorrow, maybe hetzner give jobs that include training | 15:50 |
Kilos | oi | 15:50 |
charl | good evening | 18:04 |
charl | hi Kilos | 18:04 |
Kilos | hi charl | 18:05 |
Kilos | blazehen: you looking for work for when | 18:05 |
Kilos | ? | 18:05 |
Kilos | in a years time? | 18:05 |
blazehen | Kilos, yeah | 18:06 |
blazehen | sorry, was eating | 18:06 |
blazehen | hi charl | 18:06 |
Kilos | sjoe | 18:07 |
Kilos | check if places like hetzner take peeps from bottom up | 18:07 |
Kilos | then you get paid while learning | 18:07 |
blazehen | yeah, I'll look into that :) thanks | 18:08 |
blazehen | Just been looking at the job sites now | 18:08 |
Kilos | Squirm: advice | 18:08 |
Kilos | blazehen: you not studying forther first? | 18:09 |
Kilos | further | 18:09 |
Kilos | studying further is rather expensive these days methinks | 18:10 |
blazehen | Kilos, I'll see. I can do comp.sci, but marks not good enough for comp.eng :( | 18:11 |
Kilos | oh my | 18:11 |
blazehen | yeah.. 3% on 1 subject! | 18:11 |
Kilos | ouch what happened | 18:11 |
Kilos | you forgot study study study | 18:12 |
blazehen | I did study :( | 18:12 |
Kilos | the wrong stuff looks like | 18:13 |
Kilos | 3%? | 18:13 |
Kilos | you get that much for putting your name down' | 18:13 |
blazehen | yeah.. | 18:13 |
Kilos | what happened | 18:13 |
blazehen | actually 2% | 18:13 |
Kilos | sjoe | 18:14 |
blazehen | Dunno. Final mark for that subject was 81%, but "promotion" mark 78%.. | 18:14 |
blazehen | Dunno what that is | 18:14 |
Kilos | oh you didnt only get 3% | 18:14 |
Kilos | sjoe | 18:14 |
blazehen | ah, no, lol.. | 18:15 |
Kilos | well, imo you should study further if you can | 18:16 |
blazehen | yeah. Still doesn't get me any experience however. | 18:17 |
blazehen | Wonder if having a basic homelab counts at all? | 18:17 |
Kilos | ask graeme tomorrow | 18:17 |
blazehen | yeah | 18:18 |
blazehen | He away somewhere? | 18:18 |
Kilos | he doesnt come on at night normally. | 18:18 |
blazehen | hmm, charl what you think? | 18:19 |
blazehen | ah, kk | 18:19 |
Kilos | 3g is expensive | 18:19 |
blazehen | yeah | 18:19 |
Kilos | inetpro: did you find your leak? | 18:19 |
Kilos | oh blaze study for the lpi exam | 18:20 |
Kilos | you should breeze through that | 18:20 |
Kilos | and its recognized world wide | 18:21 |
* blazehen is thinking RHCSA maybe,, | 18:21 | |
Kilos | that too ya | 18:22 |
Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 18:31 |
charl | hi blazehen | 18:33 |
blazehen | looks like I disconnected.. Did I miss anything? | 18:34 |
charl | nope | 18:35 |
blazehen | ty | 18:35 |
charl | yeah i don't really know what to tell you | 18:35 |
charl | you always hear of the shortage in the job market | 18:35 |
charl | but then you get people who can hardly find work in ict | 18:35 |
charl | i don't always get how that works | 18:35 |
charl | my first job was a personal contact of my mom's | 18:35 |
charl | after that it just went flying | 18:36 |
charl | first jobs are the worst to find | 18:36 |
charl | this is a common experience though | 18:36 |
blazehen | hmm, ok :( | 18:36 |
charl | a large part of it is not technical or if you know how to do things | 18:36 |
blazehen | yeah | 18:37 |
charl | a large part of what companies are looking for in an individual is to see if they can fit in | 18:37 |
charl | to work in a team etc | 18:37 |
blazehen | Think I should start and go to LUG meets and stuff maybe? | 18:37 |
blazehen | yeah | 18:37 |
charl | you never know but that isn't guaranteed to deliver anything | 18:37 |
blazehen | kk | 18:37 |
charl | unless you happen to just meet the right person, which can always happen | 18:37 |
blazehen | yeah | 18:37 |
blazehen | At least I'll have some hope then.. lol | 18:38 |
charl | i don't think you should discount yourself too quickly | 18:38 |
charl | look at internships, even companies like google has an internship programme | 18:38 |
blazehen | hmm, yeah | 18:38 |
charl | work for 6 months at crappy pay but after that either get a real job at the same company | 18:38 |
charl | or simply go work somewhere else | 18:38 |
blazehen | yeah | 18:38 |
charl | remember also not to get put off by job postings | 18:39 |
charl | they want very detailed and specific knowlege | 18:39 |
charl | but when it comes down to it, if you only meet some of the requirements that's good enough | 18:39 |
blazehen | alright, ty | 18:39 |
charl | most of the job postings look a lot worse than they really are, especially for general jobs | 18:39 |
charl | like general sysadmin or developer gigs are reasonably flexible | 18:39 |
charl | it's just when you need in-depth competency in very specific products that you should skip past | 18:40 |
charl | but nobody knows everything the minute they walk in, even very experienced developers | 18:40 |
charl | there is simply too much out there | 18:40 |
blazehen | alright, ty | 18:40 |
blazehen | http://telekom.jobs/telekom_html_redesign/S_82491_EN.html this looks simple enough.. Just need to get rid of money :( | 18:40 |
charl | ah t mobile | 18:42 |
blazehen | Good or bad thing? | 18:42 |
charl | dunno, they're a big mobile company but i have never been a customer | 18:43 |
charl | in NL there were a lot of complaints of them at some point but i don't know if they are really that bad | 18:43 |
blazehen | ah, alright | 18:43 |
blazehen | Thought you had like a "oh.. THAT" reaction | 18:44 |
charl | no just that they're a VERY big international company :) | 18:44 |
charl | i did actually use them in america now that i think of it | 18:44 |
charl | in the usa they had a really positive reputation from the poeple i have spoken to | 18:45 |
blazehen | ah kk | 18:45 |
