As you may have gathered from yesterday's entries I wasn't having a great day. I had
gone to bed thinking the Server From
Hell was okay and I could concentrate on other things, but alas, I was
waken up early to a dead server that needed to be up now and can we
please move all the sites over to the backup server now and trying
to fix things on a keyboard that is
less than perfect (perfection in keyboards thy name is IBM PS/2) and the sheer idiocy of RedHat and all this
before I even had caffeine set the tone for the rest of the day.
Eventually I was able to straighten
out the UID mess, get all the
services from the Server From Hell onto the backup server and switch
everything over (this about 1:30 am or so). And everything seems
to be running fine (once I figured out how to increase the number of open
file descriptors on the backup server to accomodate the large number of open
files).
Hopefully now I'll have the peace and quiet to concentrate on other
things.
Ohm.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
