Rubbish most users do *NOT* delete large numbers of files on a regular basis. I have file systems with in excess of 20 million files on them. If I look at the number of files that are expired in the TSM logs (and some of these are renames), I might see 20,000 files in a day tops.
I would add that it is the only free Linux file system with directory quota's. They call them project quota's and they can have more than one directory tree in them, but they do work.
Clearly you do not value your data. Perhaps six years might be a better idea. In the mean time there are at least two well supported extent based file systems for Linux that have a proven history of over six years that support file systems larger than 8TB. Namely XFS and JFS, pick one and go with it.
I believe the law actually says that you shall not mount a pavement while riding a bike.
I will leave it as an exercise to the reader as how you can drive a cart through the loop holes in that.
It is my understanding that law enforcement don't actually understand what the law actually says. It is a classic example of a poorly drafted piece of legislation.
Well the only contemporary report on the status of roads in Roman Britain, is that they where bloody awful.
It was found on a wooden tablet at the fort of Vindolanda, and is from Octavius to Candidus, and included the statement that he would not send his mules down to Catterick to collect a wagon load of leather hides, because the roads were so bad.
Same goes for a fridge. In the UK if you where to replace a 20 year old fridge with a new one, you would save the cost of the fridge within two years on reduced energy bills, and probably inside one year.
Old fridges and freezers suck badly in terms of performance. So your repair man is talking out of his ass.
That is a tiny 3.0 litres per 100 kilometres or a whopping 94 mpg Imperial or 78 mpg-US
I would add that a Jaguar XF Diesel, that is a three litre V6 that does 0-60mph in 5.9s gets 42.0mpg Imperial or 6.8l per 100km, and is is still 2009. Getting to 50mpg in the next seven years hardly seems like a challenging target.
Neither do you because it is Her Majesty Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom, Canada and Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith, etc.
The *ONLY* person who can fire the government is the reigning Monarch, who does so through the Governor-General of Canada
No it is held by the Crown, which at this point in time is Her Majesty Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom, Canada and Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith, etc.
That is not the same as the government, as of course the government is *her* government.
I would add it has worked longer than the United States of America has been a nation. I would also point out that the French are onto their fifth republic in 217 years, so clearly that is working out well for them.
Please tell me where this cheap fibre channel is!!!
Even a second hand Brocade 4900 (that's 64 4Gbps ports) is eye watering expensive compared to ethernet. The cheapest I can see on eBay is 35,000 USD and only has 32 ports activated. You are looking at another 18,000 USD to get the rest of the ports activated, and your ISL trunking licenses will be more on top of that.
Also where are the cheap fibre channel storage arrays as well. The cheapest IBM DS4500 I can see on eBay (and that is doggy ancient tech) is 3000USD for just the controller. That is no shelves, and no disks. You are looking at around 2000 USD for an empty EXP710
Fibre channel is good don't get me wrong, however describing it as cheap is silly.
Do you want to explain how that applies to bankers?
They seem to have done worse than sit on their backsides, made shed loads of cash and are still getting payed bonuses on the facetious argument that if they don't they will go elsewhere. In the current economic climate I would like to know where they are going to go mind you.
Nope, they get worse. My five year old niece at Christmas after spending five minutes colouring the background in TuxPaint pink (she had not found the fill tool) promptly printed it out. A sheet of pink paper would have been cheaper.
When asked her reply was "but I like it"...
Despite having a little sister I never truly understood the depth of the "pink thing" in little girls.
Problem is that like most backup software Bacula does file system backups. Which when you are used to file level backups ala Tivoli Storage Manager then it all looks a bit crap.
The MP the letter was sent to. She by her own admission sent a copy to the minister.
Under Bern convention copyright rules (which apply in France), the letter was automatically copyright of the author. There is and never has been any notion of registering copyrights.
To make a copy of the letter, permission to do so is required from the copyright holder. As she did not get that permission she broke copyright law by sending the copy of the letter to the minister. At this point the copyright holder can sue for breach of copyright.
It's a tricky thing copyright law. If you start getting draconian about it, you quickly find that it is almost impossible to operate without breaking it.
Don't they also use "controlled explosions"? In the U.K. and in particular Northern Ireland this involves setting off an explosive charge at the end of a long steel pipe. This produces a supersonic blast of air the shock wave of which cause the explosive device to disintegrate and/or be blown apart.
This has numerous advantages, one of which is preserving evidence. It is somewhat easier to lift a finger print or DNA from something that has not been consumed in a fireball.
Yes she did, she made an unauthorized copy of a piece of copyright material. With out authorization from the copyright owner, which she did not have to forward a copy to the minister she broke the law, and is banged to rights.
I would personally start by suing her for copyright infringement. It's an open and shut case and she will loose.
Not in the U.K. they don't. Due to our constitution, Parliament is sovereign and can pass a law *AT ANY TIME* that over rides any piece of E.U. legislation. This is different from all other member states of the E.U.
That the government has since 1973 chosen not to do so is a different matter.
Nice catch, there is no probably about it. They have made an unauthorized copy of a piece of copyright material. The can be banged to rights on that count too. Damages from the unauthorized distribution would be an interesting argument to be made.
Even more ironically they probably used the Internet to distribute the email, and so fell foul of the law they want to introduce...
Data Protection and Employment law are largely standardized across the E.U. That is there is a minimum standard that all countries must reach. This does not necessarily prohibit countries from having higher standards though.
It's not clear whether proper dismissal procedures where followed, but it does not look like it. Also as his conduct has no bearing on his performance in the job (it is a entirely private and proper matter, and provided he has the minimum one year of service in the job, and was performing adequately in the job then the employer is banged to rights.
Then there is the whole data protection angle, someone in government passed on his private details to a third party without permission. They are banged to rights as well.
Finally there is a whole bunch of Human Rights issues involved, though I would point out that a private company *cannot* ever infringe those. Only the state can (at least under U.K. and I believe E.U. law) infringe your Human Rights.
As for jurisdiction of courts, if he pursues it as an employment law case then it is a case for the European Court at the highest level, they adjudicate on E.U. based law, and the French must meet minimum E.U. standards.
If he pursues a case of Human Rights violation against the goverment, then it is the European Court of Human Rights, and entirely different court.
Wrong OCFS was a cluster filesystem that did just enough to run Oracle DB clusters. OCFS2 aims to be a fully fledged cluster filesystem with full Posix schematics.
Because XFS seems to get more attention from developers. JFS seems to be almost abandonware. For example the DMAPI stuff no longer works, and even IBM don't support that feature of the FS anymore.
Also you can turn XFS into a clustered filesystem if you pay the right money to SGI/Rackable. JFS can't do that.

Try four countries and six languages. You are forgetting Cornish and Scots. Admittedly they are not recognised, but they are native languages.

So you can forget the roads if you ask me :-)
