| 00:06 | <internat85> | caker: u need to put the linode matrix back that showedd everything in a linode |
| 00:08 | <@caker> | what's missing that's important? It was mostly marketing fluff/bs |

| 00:09 | <internat85> | i know |
| 00:09 | <internat85> | it looked good though :) |
| 00:10 | <@caker> | heh |
| 00:13 | <internat85> | hey while your account, can u have a look at my account "internat" and see if im abusing the cpu usage on the host? |
| 00:14 | -!- | atourino [~Antonio@201.218.81.244] has quit [Quit: Leaving.] |
| 00:19 | <internat85> | cause its showing something like 30-40% cpu usage for the last few hrs |
| 00:20 | <purrdeta> | `/w 26 |
| 00:21 | <@caker> | internat85: avg is 9.9% .. seems fine |
| 00:22 | <internat85> | my graphs normally arent that bad, just slightly worrying |
| 00:22 | <internat85> | might be time to get another linode ;) |

| 02:01 | <Aero187> | just wondering, how much (if any) downtime is there for making the switch to xen? |
| 02:05 | <internat85> | i think its 20mins a gig? |
| 02:05 | <internat85> | as ur image migrates from one host to the new one |
| 02:06 | <Aero187> | 20m/GB?! |
| 02:06 | <Aero187> | ok, thanks =] |
| 02:06 | <internat85> | dont hold me to that, but it may be quicker |
| 02:07 | <Aero187> | alright |
| 02:07 | <Aero187> | no probs |
| 02:07 | <internat85> | but it does take a while why u migrate to a diff host :) |
| 02:07 | <Aero187> | anyone here that can/wants to talk me into/out-of switching? |
| 02:07 | <internat85> | my only comment would be that xen is apparently still in beta.. |
| 02:08 | <Aero187> | yeah, that's one of my fears for it |
| 02:08 | <@caker> | it's 2-3min per GB if within the same datacenter to migrate from one host to another (xen or otherwise) |
| 02:08 | <Aero187> | ok, cool |
| 02:08 | <Aero187> | thanks |
| 02:08 | <internat85> | hahah oops |
| 02:08 | <internat85> | sorry my bad |
| 02:08 | <@caker> | ~20min per gig if moving across datacenters |
| 02:09 | <Aero187> | i don't plan on switching DC's |
| 02:09 | <Aero187> | caker: do have any words on xen/uml? |
| 02:10 | <@caker> | I do .. xen is less overhead compared to UML, plus it supports SMP |
| 02:10 | <Aero187> | smp? |
| 02:10 | <@caker> | we'll eventually be moving to it over this next quarter or two |
| 02:10 | <Aero187> | ooo |
| 02:10 | <Aero187> | nice |
| 02:10 | <@caker> | smp means multi processors |
| 02:10 | <Aero187> | ahhh |
| 02:10 | <Aero187> | very nice |
| 02:10 | <internat85> | when u say moving to it, do u mean moving all uml hosts to it/ |
| 02:10 | <@caker> | internat85: that's the plan at this point, yes |
| 02:10 | <internat85> | nice |
| 02:12 | <internat85> | so xen is definatly running faster now then uml? |
| 02:12 | <@caker> | ok .. must sleep .. nite! |
| 02:12 | <internat85> | nite :) |
| 02:12 | <Aero187> | caker: do you have to hit the 'go' button on the xen switch? |
| 02:13 | <Aero187> | bah, i think i missed him.. |

| 09:29 | <brough> | I know you don't support distros, and that xen is in beta, but linode should try booting and upgrading arch on xen and checking if it blows up or not. |
| 09:31 | <brough> | and then advising if there's a fix. |

| 09:48 | <brough> | iirc I was on dallas59 prior to the move so I assume those kernel upgrades are for non-xen hosts. |
| 09:49 | <Bdragon> | I think the problem was a couple hosts got deployed with the wrong host kernel. |
| 09:54 | <brough> | ah, so it's not that *all* xen hosts are stuck on .18? |
| 09:56 | <guinea-pig> | brough: there's a huge difference between the host kernel and the client kernel |
| 09:56 | <guinea-pig> | the client is holding at .18 because of a nasty IO hang |
| 09:57 | <brough> | I can't seem to update the client kernel. I'm talking about upgrading the default image out of the box - it dies. |
| 09:58 | <guinea-pig> | you can't upgrade the kernel if one isn't provided for you :P |
| 10:00 | <brough> | I assumed xen ran on a shared kernel, now I don't know. I wouldjust like to know if arch is meant to blow up on xen. |
| 10:00 | -!- | l0uis [~l0uis@madmax.fitnr.com] has joined #linode |
| 10:00 | <guinea-pig> | shared kernel? |
| 10:01 | <guinea-pig> | gah, i need to leave for work. and shovel my way out |
| 10:01 | <brough> | should my distro be able to update it's kernel on a xen host? pacman -Su kernel26 downloads and compiles, but unname -r shows 2.6.18 |
| 10:02 | <brough> | ok, I'll resort to a ticket. |
| 10:02 | <guinea-pig> | you cannot replace the linode-provided kernel, no |
| 10:02 | -!- | CyberMonk [hacker@2001:5c0:84dc:1:2::39] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds] |
| 10:03 | <guinea-pig> | and on xen, you wouldn't want to use anything newer than 2.6.18 because then you'd suffer from IO hangs and be rebooting every hour or so |
| 10:03 | <guinea-pig> | (depending on your disk usage) |
| 10:04 | <l0uis> | Hey all, does anyone know what powers the linode job queue system? I'd like to tinker with something similiar. |
| 10:05 | <guinea-pig> | l0uis: i think it's all custom-written |
| 10:05 | <l0uis> | guinea-pig: ah, that would make sense I suppose |
| 10:05 | <guinea-pig> | you'd have to ask caker for more details, though |
| 10:07 | <l0uis> | guinea-pig: rgr, thanks for the info |
| 10:08 | <guinea-pig> | brough: anyway, you might need to recompile glibc, and edit the SUPPORTED_KERNEL_VERSION variable in the glibc config (or whatever the variable is), to use it on xen. |
| 10:09 | <guinea-pig> | many distros have taken to setting that to a reasonable value such that older kernels no longer can run current glibc |
| 10:09 | <brough> | thanks, I'll look into that. |
| 10:09 | <guinea-pig> | although, i'm not sure if 2.6.18 should be considered old enough. maybe Arch is being (stupid|strict) |
| 10:10 | <guinea-pig> | i'm *guessing* that's what the prbolem is, anyway |
| 10:10 | <brough> | seems likely, I noticed it failing on glibc. |
| 10:10 | <guinea-pig> | as a note for anyone compiling their own glibc, though |
| 10:11 | <guinea-pig> | set that variable to the oldest kernel you'd possibly run... and glibc will be that much smaller and faster. none of the older compatability code :) |
| 10:11 | <guinea-pig> | i go now |
| 10:11 | <guinea-pig> | bye! |
| 10:12 | <brough> | thanks. :) |

| 16:10 | <ondrej> | I wasn't able to find it |
| 16:10 | <iggy> | you get billed |
| 16:10 | <@tasaro> | boom |

| 16:10 | <pknetworks> | k what is the TTL set or can you set that your self through the DNS Manager. :) |
| 16:11 | <@caker> | ondrej: nothing happens to your Linode -- it's a softlimit |
| 16:11 | <@caker> | pknetworks: ttls for *everything* are configurable through the dns manager |
| 16:11 | <@tasaro> | ondrej: we'll open a ticket with you if it's unreasonable |
| 16:11 | <mwalling> | caker: is it still chuggging on that file? |
| 16:11 | <@tasaro> | you can also set an alert under the Utilities tab |
| 16:11 | <@caker> | mwalling: no, it actually finished quite quickly |
| 16:12 | <pknetworks> | Good deal, I am thinking of using this as a solutions instead of using bind on the server, and then it suddenly going down. |

| 16:12 | <mwalling> | caker: heh |
| 16:12 | <@caker> | and, even though I've generated the stats db or whatever it's called, the cgi script says I need to generate the stats db ... |

| 16:13 | <ondrej> | tasaro, caker - if I exceed, simply cut off the net, that's fine with me, until I upgrade. but I don't won't to get billed without agreeing first. is that possible? |

| 19:05 | <kafey> | caker: I'm actually interested in rebates for I live in a poor country :( |
| 19:06 | <@caker> | kafey: we have a 7 day money back guarantee |

| 19:07 | <@caker> | We only accept visa/mc and american express (and soon Discover) credit cards, and check if you're paying annually |

| 23:26 | <Hobbsee> | guinea-pig: yeah, don't ask. |
| 23:27 | <Hobbsee> | guinea-pig: i'll be moving it, but for the moment, i want to point it to a current site |
| 23:27 | * | Hobbsee can set www.foobar.com fine |
| 23:30 | <@caker> | Hobbsee: are you trying to do that in a cname? cname's can't be blank |
| 23:30 | <Hobbsee> | caker: it wasn't blank. it had foobar.com |
| 23:30 | <@caker> | same thing |
| 23:30 | <Hobbsee> | ah right |
| 23:30 | <Hobbsee> | caker: thanks. i'll repoint that to my site in the meantime, then. |
| 23:39 | <warewolf> | so what happened a few days ago here on oftc where half the network got klined |
| 23:39 | <warewolf> | anyone know? |
| 23:39 | <@caker> | yup |
| 23:40 | <@caker> | bug in services interpreted a kline syntax error as *@* |
| 23:40 | <warewolf> | oh wow. |
| 23:40 | <warewolf> | that wouldn't be half the network then. |
| 23:40 | <@caker> | apparently, the code that checks for stuff like that wasn't in the path that services->servers communications take .. or something |
| 23:41 | <warewolf> | ouch. Mistakes hapen, unfortunately. |

| 23:44 | <warewolf> | haha |
| 23:44 | <warewolf> | congrats. |
| 23:48 | * | warewolf returns to shopping for apartments |
| 23:48 | <@caker> | warewolf: whatever happened with your employment saga? |
| 23:48 | <warewolf> | 4oh |
| 23:48 | <warewolf> | went back to working for my old employer that kicked serious ass, and now I'm shaping the groth of a new CERT. |
| 23:49 | <warewolf> | and because the average skillset there is abysmal, I am a god amongst mice. |
| 23:49 | <warewolf> | I'm going to do good things there. If I can work through the political bull@#$. |
| 23:50 | <warewolf> | and now I have a security clearance, to boot. |
| 23:54 | <guinea-pig> | warewolf: where you moving? |
| 23:55 | <warewolf> | somewhere not too far from where I live now, hopefully. I *hate* moving. |
| 23:55 | <guinea-pig> | hahah |
| 23:55 | <warewolf> | but I need to get a place of my own, and I think I finally make enough money to do so. |
