And it looks like they, through the Illumos community, will end up forking OpenSolaris (incl. ZFS and other solaris goodies) by default if Oracle doesn't start actively participating. LLNL, who are working on the zfsonlinux port, are also involved in the Illumos-centred ZFS development.

[luv-main] list-id issue -- we have a change in list naming?

by Andrew McGlashan

Hi, I had anew message from the list (James Harper), but it didn't get to the right folders via my rules in my .forward -- this seems to be due to the List-Id head being different, possibly running over two lines? List-Id: "Main LUV community and support mailing list." <luv-main.lists.luv.asn.au> This from my .forward $h_List-Id: matches "luv-main.luv.asn.au" Hmm, okay it might not be multi-line issue, but still a change? luv-main.luv.asn.au luv-main.lists.luv.asn.au Are other lists changing this way? Was this an error? -- Kind Regards AndrewM Andrew McGlashan

Can you guys stop these excess LUV emails.. ? I was on the LUV list and got about 3-4 emails per week... OK.. Now its suddenly about 40 per day... Seems like something has gone astray with the email system... thanks Peter ----------------- > On Thu, 15 Sep 2011, Erik Christiansen <dvalin(a)internode.on.net> wrote: > > As craig suggested, it'd be very nifty, though, if we could lose the > > "[luv-main]" pollution in the Subject header.

[luv-main] email issues

by Andrew Greig

I have received 47 messages from luv-main in my main account address - no problem. But I have received the same messages in my secondary address as well - problem. This is new behaviour. Not grumpy, just informative. I am grateful for all of the work that goes into keeping us informed. Andrew Greig

I see your point. At the moment I go for plan B first (backup/failover) instead of praying that magic helps me if it goes pear-shaped. In that sense it may be a waste of time to write a fsck. However, I can imagine that it helps you to improve the original code. If you write fsck you have to think about "what can go wrong" - and then you are half-way through to fix it (and not relying on fsck). I always avoid software that needs "repair tools" in production. E.g. I hated to work with MySQL 3 and having to fix MyISAM tables and indexes if something went wrong. It took me a while until I wanted to touch MySQL again.. These days I do not even remember what the repair tools look like, and I hope I never have to google for it. Regards Peter

Now here: https://github.com/chrissamuel/Scripts I've now stopped using ZFS/FUSE and moved to the "ZFS on Linux" DKMS version instead as it seems to be progressing well, so I've modified the zsnapshot script to just use zfs mount/umount. cheers, Chris -- Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC This email may come with a PGP signature as a file.

[luv-main] Digest mode broken ?

by Andrew Mather

Hi, Up until a few minutes ago, I was getting both LUV Main and LUV Talk in digest mode only. In the last few minutes, I have started to receive unbundled messages to LUV Main and on logging into the mailman page, saw that Digest mode was turned off. I have since enabled Digest again. Has something happened with the listserver, or was it just me ?

Some good points there. Personally, it's never been a big issue for me either way, and even less so now that I've finally got around to filtering on the right header :) 73 de VK3JED / VK3IRL http://vkradio.com

[luv-main] pacemaker, iscsi, multipath, and filesystem

by James Harper

I'm testing multipath with iscsi now, and having the multipath infrastructure present means that the actual iscsi device is unusable, you have to go through the multipath device node. This makes perfect sense exact that pacemaker wants to mount the filesystem before multipath has created the device node. I notice there is a Delay agent, but that seems like a bit of a hack - how much of a delay is enough, without waiting unnecessarily long? Any suggestions? This is a followup to my nfs or ocfs2 question... it turns out that nfs failover doesn't work that smoothly due to hanging tcp connections and holding the block device open so I've gone with ocfs2. Thanks James
