Projects to work on
-
I would say ignore XOA and use XO.
Xen Orchestra Applicance, verses Xen Orchestra (from the sources)
But yeah those are good starting points.
-
Monitoring is a good one that is a bit more involved than a typical setup. Zabbix, Zenoss, Nagios, etc. And Grafana is very nice as a portfolio project.
-
Since the company that I interviewed with is running Zabbix, maybe I should try that.
Thanks everybody for these fantastic ideas!

kind of sad the built in parser cannot handle spaces.

If you copy and paste right from the URL, it works.

Something like ELK, Splunk or Greylog would be good experiences.

Hello! That's a snazzy bow tie!!
Sorry to hear about the job, opportunity sounds pretty good though.
-
Wow, NodeBB makes ugly links
http://mangolassi.it/tags/how%20toIt would be much better to replace spaces with "-" like wordpress does:

@MattSpeller Thanks for the kind words! Yeah at my last job, I used to wear a bowtie every Wednesday (bowtie wednesday) to spice things up in the dep't. This next opportunity should be killer!

You need to make that your avatar.

Other ideas... IRC server inside the lab and a StatusNET system.
-
An OpenFire 4.x server would be good, too.
-
@antonit Having some Python/BASH scripting examples for basic tasks might not be a bad idea. You could chuck them out on github and pull them down for demo/explanation in realtime. Might earn some brownie points...
I don't know much about the environment, but knowing your way around a couple of popular version control systems might be helpful as well. You could build your own Subversion and Git servers for hosting repositories.
You might also look at implementing an instance of Redmine for project management.

He is building out a MariaDB server right now.
-
What about something such as a satellite server?
-
Thank you all for your suggestions! Very helpful..... I've actually started working on a Zabbix server with the database sitting on a second server.
-
@RamblingBiped Sounds like a great idea! I may do that on the side, just to have it in my arsenal of "stuff that I've done"
