| 10:13.22 | yaMatt | looks like my contact at google has either changed his name in the last 2 weeks or left the company |
| 10:13.33 | yaMatt | which is a good sign :( |
| 11:27.50 | ChoHag | What the ever-living fuck? |
| 11:28.00 | yaMatt | what's up ChoHag? |
| 11:28.04 | ChoHag | Windows 7 has filled the 10GB partition I gave it with fuck all. |
| 11:28.18 | yaMatt | with fuck all? |
| 11:28.39 | ChoHag | The only thing I have done apart from install is run windows update. |
| 11:28.54 | ChoHag | And that didn't even finish updating itself. |
| 11:29.12 | ChoHag | 9.9GB used. |
| 11:29.40 | yaMatt | heheh, sounds about right |
| 11:29.48 | yaMatt | Win7 is a bit of a beast |
| 11:30.01 | yaMatt | I've got a few Win7 machines with the OS that takes up 20GB |
| 11:30.26 | ChoHag | Hmm it's decided I need a 1.5GB hibernation file on a system I never have and never will hibernate. |
| 11:30.41 | yaMatt | you can switch that off somehow |

| 13:01.29 | AndyMillar | zeroXten: you around? |
| 13:01.50 | yaMatt | oh brilliant, contact at mozilla has an inactive e-mail address too |
| 13:01.52 | yaMatt | ffs |
| 13:02.46 | AndyMillar | erm, not zeroXten |
| 13:02.54 | AndyMillar | z00dax: you about? |
| 13:02.55 | yaMatt | I guess it's back to Google Campus |
| 13:10.03 | z00dax | AndyMillar: sup |
| 13:10.29 | z00dax | yaMatt: btw, is this you looking for a new venue ? |
| 13:10.35 | yaMatt | yup |
| 13:10.41 | yaMatt | unsuccessfully so far |
| 13:11.58 | AndyMillar | z00dax: I don't suppose you've got a Centos 3.6 or later kernel build lieing around do you? |
| 13:12.03 | *** join/#gllug simondavies049 (~androirc@dab-ell2-h-28-1.dab.02.net) |
| 13:12.26 | z00dax | 3.6 ? |
| 13:12.31 | z00dax | there is a 3.4 ... |
| 13:12.42 | AndyMillar | erm, Centos 6.3 or later 3.6 kernel |
| 13:12.49 | AndyMillar | should be more specific |
| 13:12.51 | z00dax | and there is a 3.8 as well ( but really, its not 'supported' ) |
| 13:13.09 | AndyMillar | 3.6.6 or later apparently has all the good stuff I need |
| 13:13.17 | z00dax | oh, what are you looking for ? |
| 13:13.20 | zeroXten | AndyMillar: o/ |
| 13:13.23 | AndyMillar | Ceph and btrfx |
| 13:13.26 | AndyMillar | zeroXten: you get around ;) |
| 13:13.39 | zeroXten | so they say |
| 13:13.43 | AndyMillar | btrfs*, the filesystem not the porn series |
| 13:15.30 | z00dax | there is a btrfs in the stock centos-6.3 kernels |
| 13:16.01 | z00dax | i belive ceph is only blocked on a qemu issue, not so much kernel side anymore |
| 13:18.37 | z00dax | /lib/modules/2.6.32-358.2.1.el6.x86_64/kernel/fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko |
| 13:18.54 | AndyMillar | the stock 6.3 gives an old version of btrfs, apparently you want the newer kernels for it to be "stable" |
| 13:19.31 | z00dax | humm ok |
| 13:20.24 | AndyMillar | I can mash up something myself, but if you've got something easier lieing around <3 |
| 13:23.29 | z00dax | there is a 3.7.x and a 3.8.x being uploaded as we speak |
| 13:23.38 | z00dax | stand by, be ready for violence |
| 13:24.58 | AndyMillar | :D |
| 13:26.22 | AndyMillar | I've got 100 or so disks to make into a ceph cluster :) |
| 13:26.41 | z00dax | drop me an email |
| 13:28.03 | AndyMillar | which address? |
| 13:28.20 | z00dax | kbsingh centos |
| 13:28.49 | AndyMillar | ,3 |
| 13:28.59 | AndyMillar | <3 and all thart |
| 13:34.19 | z00dax | you should have email, hopefully of some use |
| 13:35.22 | AndyMillar | ty :) |
| 13:37.11 | z00dax | they are very keen to get there before glusterfs does |
| 13:37.21 | AndyMillar | we tried gluster |
| 13:38.04 | z00dax | in the mean time http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/kernel/6/x86_64/RPMS/ |
| 13:40.29 | z00dax | so what was the gluster pain ? |
| 13:43.41 | AndyMillar | z00dax: if this works I'm hoping to have a couple of ceph clusters; one for our backups (~100-120 spindles), and another of about the same size but with ssd accelerated cards |
| 13:43.55 | AndyMillar | gluster was slow and a real PITA when things went wrong |
| 13:47.21 | AndyMillar | wonders how ceph will run like that |
| 13:59.04 | AndyMillar | hmm, I should probably not be trying to test this ceph stuff on a load of rackspace 256mb instances |
| 14:16.30 | morsing | Beer |
| 14:22.52 | z00dax | AndyMillar: not sure how they feel about the kernel not being their own one ( are they even letting you boot your own ? ) |
| 14:23.44 | AndyMillar | z00dax: yeah, I'm booting that 3.7.9 now |
| 14:36.49 | AndyMillar | right, now lets go btrfs and see how it plays nice |
| 14:41.11 | AndyMillar | the fun will be if I can do the ext4->btrfs migration without losing any of my oh so important data |
| 14:59.14 | z00dax | lots of backups |
| 14:59.48 | AndyMillar | nah, the "important" data is actually a 1gb dd into /disk losetupped to /dev/loop0 ;) |
