| 10:24.22 | rhowe | XFS can do online growage too (but not shrinkage - a method for doing it has been posted to the list, but nobody's written it) |
| 10:24.36 | rhowe | I've used xfs_growfs and it works a total treat |
| 10:24.46 | antiphase | xfs is also generally cool |
| 10:25.02 | rhowe | Cool, but not without limitations and annoyances |
| 10:27.04 | rhowe | Lack of data journalling means that it can be a while before your data hits the disk, which allows for pretty good performance (lets things get better allocated and fewer, larger, I/O ops) but also means that your apps need to use fdatasync et al properly and that your storage system needs to be robust |
| 10:27.36 | rhowe | Of course, apps should use fdatasync properly anyway, and storage systems should be robust, but ext3 (for example) with data journalling hides a multitude of sins |
| 10:27.54 | rhowe | Plus, XFS hasn't been without the odd bug |
| 10:28.15 | murb | it is also good at triggering bugs / features in other things like lvm. |
| 10:28.28 | rhowe | The nice one recently was with 2.6.17 - 2.6.17.9ish whereby mounting your filesystem would corrupt it in ways you'd only notice later when the kernel crashed hard |
| 10:28.34 | murb | and it won't let you mount 2 volumes with the same uuid |
| 10:28.45 | rhowe | murb: It will, but you need to pass an extra mount option |
| 10:28.50 | murb | which makes lv snapshots less useful. |
| 10:28.55 | antiphase | I can't say I've ever had a problem with it |
| 10:29.15 | murb | rhowe: ahah, well, it also used causes oopses before it got that far anyway :p |
| 10:29.26 | antiphase | Using experimental features is usually a way to find problems though ;) |
| 10:29.33 | murb | i don't have any systems in production with xfs anymore. |
| 10:29.40 | murb | or resierfs |
| 10:29.41 | rhowe | murb: But yeah, it's shown up a fair few problems with storage drivers and other kernel bits (it's quite memory and pagecache intensive, IIRC) |
| 10:29.42 | cpufreak | murb: you can. |
| 10:30.04 | cpufreak | mount -o nouuid /dev/dstore/test /mnt/ |
| 10:30.21 | cpufreak | ahh, rhowe alreadys aid that. |
| 10:30.24 | morsing | Nice |
| 10:30.35 | rhowe | murb: What I do like about XFS is the support, although whether it's as good now that a chunk of developers have jumped ship, I dunno |
| 10:30.53 | rhowe | murb: The mailing list is generally very good, and the IRC channel is usually watched by a few developers |
| 10:31.15 | rhowe | murb: The SGI folks have the ability to test most scenarios and reproduce bugs etc. |
| 10:31.26 | murb | rhowe: i ghoutht the sgi ship was sinking? |
| 10:31.36 | rhowe | Then again, you get the impression that XFS has been debugged to the point of working, rather than well crafted :) |
| 10:31.56 | rhowe | murb: It is, but so far, the support for XFS is still decent. Patches are still being produced in a timely fashion, etc |
| 10:31.57 | Leeds | murb: it was... it's now a dinghy, and more stable, I think :-) |
| 10:32.35 | murb | zfs for linux though would be neat. |
| 10:32.54 | murb | the userland stuff tools have been ported iirc. |
| 10:32.55 | Leeds | there are constant rumours to that effect |
| 10:33.10 | murb | Leeds: http://zfs-on-fuse.blogspot.com/ no recent updates though. |

| 16:39.24 | Leeds | morning all |
| 16:39.55 | boudiccas | Leeds; morning to you :) |
| 16:41.16 | Leeds | had an interesting email while I was out... |
| 16:41.44 | Leeds | from someone who I don't (think I) know, but who appears to exist, in Hong Kong, according to google... |
| 16:42.16 | boudiccas | ah, netwroking paying some dividends then? |
| 16:42.24 | Leeds | subject: TRavel system Development - content, just says "Call me", a number, and a name to ask for - the same name as on the from line |
| 16:43.04 | boudiccas | give him a bell, it might be useful to you |
| 16:43.48 | Leeds | now, it was sent through a webmail system, I think - by, I *think*, 100% co-incidence, a webmail system run by the company I spoke to yesterday about work, which confused me mightily when I first looked at the mail headers to see where the mail had come from |
| 16:44.14 | Leeds | it was sent to the email address I publish on my blog... |
| 16:44.48 | boudiccas | so they'd obviously read your blog |
| 16:45.01 | Leeds | oh, I'll give him a call in the morning, absolutely - could be nothing, could be something - could be... maybe... that my desperate cry for help on my blog helped :-) |
| 16:45.23 | boudiccas | go for it! :) |
| 16:45.37 | Leeds | can't hurt to call him, of course |
| 16:46.16 | Leeds | would be pretty... well, interesting... if after applying to public ads and doing more f2f networking than I've ever done... I get something from my blog :-) |
| 16:46.49 | boudiccas | but the networking does work and hekp too |
| 16:46.49 | Leeds | the name seems slightly familiar, but I really don't think I know him |
| 16:47.11 | Leeds | strings to the bow, irons in the fire, etc. |
| 16:47.47 | z00dax | all forms of networking are good :) even irc sorts... |
| 16:47.53 | Leeds | z00dax: absolutely! |
| 16:48.35 | Leeds | as I say, it would be interesting - definitely a sign that the 21st century is here - if I get something from my blog in the end |
| 16:52.19 | *** part/#gllug Marios_ (n=koumides@171.192.0.10) |
| 16:53.03 | Leeds | found a website or two of his... |
| 16:53.24 | Leeds | it's amazing what google can do with just a name and an email address :-) |
| 16:53.54 | Leeds | z00dax: outblaze is still far and away the best response I've had, and I do owe you major beerage whenever I'm in London |
| 16:57.31 | Leeds | okay, anyone else see a totally fucked-up page at http://www.activ8.com/index.html ? |
| 17:02.38 | antiphase | It looks like a web page, albeit a shite one |
| 17:04.57 | Leeds | argh, I found his myspace page |
| 17:05.34 | Leeds | hmm... the text is all overrunning other text on my browser... whatever |

| 17:06.44 | Dick_Turpin | Leeds, Hi Ya |
| 17:07.00 | Dick_Turpin | did you all miss me? |
| 17:07.25 | Leeds | anyway, have done enough research to show that no, this is not spam, and yes, this guy does work for a web-ish company in Hong Kong, and I should therefore take his interest seriously |
| 17:08.10 | Dick_Turpin | Leeds, One mans spam is another mans advertising :-) |
| 17:09.07 | Leeds | Dick_Turpin: nah, it's terse, but it's a personal mail to me |
| 17:09.34 | Dick_Turpin | Oh thought you was discussing spam |
| 17:10.38 | Leeds | nope... to summarise, at the weekend, I posted a plea out on my blog (which makes its way to a couple of planets sites) for someone to hire me... tonight, I've got a very short mail, out of nowhere, sent to my blog-published email address, subjest "TRavel system Development" and a name and number to call |
| 17:11.12 | Dick_Turpin | Leeds, Good money? |
| 17:12.00 | Leeds | not a clue... literally - I have a name, a number, and the phrase "TRavel system Development" |
| 17:12.36 | boudiccas | and the url to a shite website! |
| 17:13.05 | Leeds | nope, found that via google on the name and email address |
| 17:15.30 | Dick_Turpin | Leeds, You might end up earning loads of money |
| 17:15.56 | Leeds | might do... |
