EMC fully suppors Linux for connectivity. they have thoier multipath stuf for linux.. Least this was the status as of 2 or 3 years ago when i was evaling emc clarion/symetrix for use in our datacenters.
why o why are these not implicit?
don't you agree that having to turn them off explicitly would be a better practice for the perl comunity ? How many replies to questions at The Monastary are use strict.. enamble warnings.....
You are comparing a distro and kernel that is verry old.
RH 5.2 shipped 2.0.16 ?.. damn I cant remember.
we are 2 major releases above that now, and redhat is on version 7.0..
I don't think any examples that old really make a point other than. In 2 years Linux has come a LONG way.

Linux Failover?

Because having an operating systems allows for custom tweeking. I have written numerous perl scripts to do VIP IP accounting and uptime statistics outside of the BigIP interfaces. Having a device like this adds FLexablility. As for the Local Director or ServerIron these platforms tie you to their interfaces to access data without the option to customize.
If you don't know what that means... The perl Interpreter reads line by line and compiles the code on the fly (remember BASIC?) this is much slower and much more CPU intensive than a pre compiled binary app.
A compiled app has already ben reduced to machine code and needs not be "compiled' during execution. This is why C/C++ would be the choice for anyone with performance on thier mind, and if they had the time.
This is what I would lkike to know. When can we expect out of the box High Availability in linux servers. I know turbolinux has their cluster product, but I want heartbeat failover through serial connection ala F5/PIX.
When do you expect SMP to scale to 32 + processors.
Is there any plans to make Loadbalancing software for linux (ala F5)
how about some of the middleware vendors..
what about Comercial apps like Veritas, checkpoint, etc.. Will we see these kind of things getting with the program in the next year?
These questions need to be answered so I can Make the PHB's Happy
I think we are seing les focus in the area where Linux really Kicks ass. This is where we need to improve and surpass.
On that note. What kind of innovations can we expect to see in the next 2 years. I would think that Linux community should be the trend setter in the server and desktop markets in the next year or so. What is being done as far as R&D spending and or communty support.
granted I love seeing more apps on the desktop.. I love playing games in linux at home, but I wouldn't have all the time to enjoy theses things if my servers wern't runnin smooth..
I'm not a whizz at crypto.. (I barly got my own private public keys figured out) It seams like we have a good understanding of how to distribute DNS over the internet.. I wonder if that model could be applied to keyservers ?
Just a thought, but doesnt't most censorship from government happen to corporate organizations?.. where the government has certian poweres to make that org uncomfortable if they do not follow the rules?... my whole point is If there is no single entity for the government to censor, there there is no way to enforce (not practically or economicaly). It seems that enfoceing regulation of free info would be like enforceing regulation of everyday speach between people... impractical and unconstitutional.. this post is a perfect example of my "speakingh" to other people and therefore should not be regulated... hmmm. so is moderation on/. going against my freedom to speak ? or is it Ok for a company (/. in this case) to edit it's clients views because the "speach" is in its ballroom ?...
Why don't we have our own Org supporting these fredoms lobying in DC (and other Contries where aplicable) that is completely based off of the/. community ? I'm sure there is a lot we could do without having to have a lot of $$ our numbers would make a difference. We could use the ever growing popularity of politicians online to our advantage. They are starting to play our game. Why not make sure it stays that way ?
hmm I run IpMasq for our network and have a separate/28 for world routeable saervers at the office. We are a development and network consulting firm, and I get no complaints about latancy or flakyness. The Mission Critical servers are centrally located at a MAjor Colo Facility (only 2 blocks from the office) so if anything happens to the local net the puplic side isn't affected. Modularity is a good thing.
Linux does more with less. It's that simple. For the ammount of money they spent on the High end test we could build a Beowulf cluster. I'd like to see NT do what Avalon did for $150,000. Linux Scales. From the Itsy to Alta Clusters. NT only works well on Quad Xeons with 2gigs of ram. I can spend 3,000 and get a Kickass webserver with linux (dual p2400 RAID5 3x4gig UWSCSI Ethernet 1/2GB RAM) or 4,000 and get an ok webserver(same HW) with NT (or 40,000 and get a Sun E250 with External RAID)
Argh.. I am doing nothing to help the situation by venting, but I feel better.
Of course now I cannot remember where The link was, but it explained NTFS in good detail. It so happens that NTFS only does partial journaling. Can't remember details right now... ugghh (just woke up)
Don't do Exodus. I work for a consulting firm, and have worked with Exodus through our clients. thier service isn't to par and thier facilities are lacking. Try www.level3.net, They are about a year old. They have 17 locations in the US and London. Level3 will be at 25 (or so) Gateways by year end. They are laying 532 strands of fiber for thier backbone with conduit space to multiply that by a factor of 10. (for those that don't know 4 fibre strands = OC192 = 192 T3's = 5376 T1's = 8,064 Mb/s) times this by 133 (532 strands/4) and you get 1,072,512 Mb/s or one Terabit/second backbone.. this will span all of the Major US Cities. When you colo there you get 2 100Mb ethernet jacks that you can do what you want with. (Exodus gives you 1 10Mb)The Facilities themselves are the Best I have ever seen Clean and well thought out. 16" raised floors with AC running through the floor and all wiring is handled by a double decker wire ladder 1 for power 1 for data.. You get 2 15amp power strips on separate breakers. 1 Full Rack (23" racks X 7' tall) and 1Mb of bwidth (average monthly you can burst to the full potential of 100Mb/s) runs about $1,500/mo and I think aditional meg is like $800. The company was started by the people who started MFS (Mae West/East before MCI bought them)
sorry for the rant, but we have 5 Racks there and it's been the best Datacenter Ive ever worked with.

Quite possibly the best website for perl programers.
perlmonks.org
Ctags and tab completion in VI as well as vsplit and CVS from VI
having a good bashrc/vimrc/muttrc will save you soo damned much time and typing.
ssh keys and ssh-agent
Screen which has been mentioned is also somthing i cannot live without.
also perl from the command line.
one i use a lot:
perl -i.bak -lpe 's///g;'
replace whatever in your regex in whatever files
backing up original files to file.bak
while addin a new disk ( was migrating data )..
/usr/lib /tmp
mv
no command worked after that cause everythign was dynamically linked.

Umm....
Perl is interpreted and C/C++ is compiled.
If you don't know what that means... The perl Interpreter reads line by line and compiles the code on the fly (remember BASIC?) this is much slower and much more CPU intensive than a pre compiled binary app.
A compiled app has already ben reduced to machine code and needs not be "compiled' during execution.
This is why C/C++ would be the choice for anyone with performance on thier mind, and if they had the time.
What about the mid to high end server market.
This is what I would lkike to know. When can we expect out of the box High Availability in linux servers. I know turbolinux has their cluster product, but I want heartbeat failover through serial connection ala F5/PIX.
When do you expect SMP to scale to 32 + processors.

are 2 layer4 switches
mandrake 6.0 also has this feature. Infact rpmfind kan do this for you I belive
