About 2 months ago, I’ve been contacted to join an a team of 5 persons, on making (once again) a solution to find love. So many solutions already exists today, but this one is a little bit different in my opinion, that’s why I accepted to take part of the adventure. This solution is interesting because you’re anonymous. This can help you a lot if you’re shy. This kind of Phone application would help me a lot in the past if it was existing !

If like me, you were using the Ansible Galaxy website to find and download your playbook for your favorite apps, you may missed a feature. It happened to me when I had to manage several playbook roles. I first wanted to use Git submodules to do it. However I preferred to search another way to do like like Puppet can do with R10K because I am working on a project with some unfamiliar Git users.

Following the deployment blog post I made on ES/Kibana/Fluentd, I released new version of Fluentd and Kibana playbooks to support the latests versions of themselves and ElasticSearch. ElasticSearch 1.4 version is ,out which doesn’t changed anything for the deployment. However Kibana requires to enable an ElasticSearch configuration option now, to work properly. I updated the Kibana playbook for it. On its side, Fluentd has the major release 2.0 out and I updated Ansible playbook for the best integration with Debian Wheezy.

I recently had the case, where I lost connexion of my NFS client connexion because NFS server crashed. The problem I had is simple, some of clients couldn’t recover their connexion because the old one was still shown as already connected.

Thanks for all voters. I expected more participants (compared to the number of followers) but it gives me here a good indication on what you want me to focus on. You may already seen that this week I made less blog posts as I didn’t have any quite big subjects to talk about or time to prepare. Thanks to follow me, I’ll try to make better posts new but a little bit less.

First of all I will only talk about open sources solutions. I don’t want to take part of any commercial one. In addition, I will focus on only 4 solutions which seem to me the most used at this time. I will also talk about my history, my level on each one and why I recommend or not that solution. Puppet is in my opinion the most known solution. Because of the marketing they were/are doing, because it was a good alternative compared to the old cfengine.

Dear readers, It’s starting to be harder and harder to write good articles every 2 days. Some of you tell me that I should make less blog posts with better quality. However others tell me that they don’t care about quality because they’ve learned something anyway. I’m not going to make this choice by my own and prefer let this to you. That’s why I’ll be happy if you could answer to this poll:
