What Are You Doing Right Now

So I did some testing. No internet access on that network, so I did some very scientific write tests of dd'ing /dev/urandom and /dev/zero to a file. Was pretty slow, but I'm pretty sure that's because of all of the software emulation going on. However, the main thing I was interested in was the replication.
I made a couple new files in the VM. Shut it down on the first node, and booted it on the second. Everything was there. Didn't try to configure any auto-failover. But This was 100 times easier to set up than manually setting up DRBD.

Oh yes, Gluster is way easier than DRBD.

I think it makes more sense if you're just using image files for your VMs. If you're using LVM for a backing store then I guess DRBD would make sense (like with XS) but Gluster makes more sense in my mind for image files.

I equate Gluster being more of a replicated SAN than I do DRBD... Although I know they both accomplish the same thing, just in different ways.

I think Ceph would be more of a replicated SAN and Gluster would be more of a replicated NAS.
By default that is. You can use Gluster for block storage. You can use CephFS but from what I've seen its not really ready to be used (haven't tried it).

Just wrapped up D&D night.
-
Trying to not freak out that I've been up since 4AM yesterday (1:20AM currently here) and I have to be at work in 40 minutes...and work til 8AM...to which I will come home and crash HARD!
-
Good morning everyone!
-
I must be catching up on sleep. Just slept for nearly ten hours.
Last night did some introducing of my kids to Full House. The five year old is okay watching it but doesn't really care. But the seven year old absolutely loves it.

Thinking do I read up on trouble shooting SQL performance or leave it to the "experts" and keep waiting lol
-
Or hire a better expert

Happy Star Wars Day

This is pretty interesting. http://app.raw.densitydesign.org/
It's a simple vector graphics for spreadsheets generator.

that is definitely pretty cool. Why don't spreadsheets have that stuff built in?!?!

This topic is just annoying.
And when I reported that user as a non IT pro, they left the account as is. But obviously that's an experienced pro asking that question....

No, I knew if I made a comment that david would put me in the moderation timeout corner (like he loves to do).
