I recently added RAID 1 on my mac mini under Debian. I used mdadm and remembered how easy it is.
I’ve added some updates to my documentation to create a RAID without waiting a full sync.
Puppetlabs recently made a book con Continuous Delivery and offer that book. Continuous delivery allows you to get new features and capabilities to market quickly and reliably. But what is this methodology, really, and what’s required to get started? This new, introductory ebook will share:
What continuous delivery is and isn’t Why continuous delivery is important to your business How to get started with the cultural technological changes required to practice continuous delivery You can download it there
I’ve finally finished my documentation on LXC for Debian Wheezy. I think I’ve added the most interesting features.
I’m now going to migrate my servers from KVM to LXC as I only POC it for now. I’ll keep you up to date when everything will be migrated.
LXC is a really good container solution to replace older container solutions like OpenVZ or Vserver for instance. Libvirt is a wonderful tool to manage different hypervisors and containers solutions. Anyway Libvirt is unfortunately not able to fully manage LXC (create, delete…) today.
That’s why it’s not necessary to get it running and installed on a server, but it could be useful if you have KVM and LXC working on the same machine to get the same tool to handle start/stop containers/VMs.
If you’re not aware that the next kernel version will replace iptables by nftables, it’s time to learn on how it works, what are the features, why the change and how to use it.
If like me, you love PF, you’ll be pleased to find a similar syntax on NFtables ! To have a good introduction on it, look at those slides :
I’ve recently updated some of my tutorials :
Stress : CPU test usage
Firefox Sync Server : upgrade procedure updated
AutoFS : adding FTP (curlfs)
Kernel compilation : updated with the latest compression format
PuppetDB : updated to work with the latest PuppetDB version
SSH : how to change your ssh key passphrase
So this is my first update to get a full working MacBook Pro under Debian. For now, as already talked in a last post, I’m trying to make every things working.
The remaining nonworking things/problems were and the resolutions I’ve found :
The iSight Camera : still not working (didn’t had time to search solution neither) The Speaker : should work with the latest kernel and patch (RedHat bugzilla) but didn’t have the time to test it yet (3.
