hello YOSPOS, just wanted to give a lil update re: my high availability storage project

I like glusterFS, a lot, I think it's the best solution. unfortunately citrix doesn't think the same so xenserver doesn't support it for what I need. the industry is using DRBD as a backing store for most purposes anyway, and it's directly supported by corosync, so i started barking up that tree again

short version: gently caress centos

longer version: centos seems to work just fine with DRBD. at first. you can make a virtual disk manually and test it out and everything works fine. then you set up corosync and make an iscsi target and it works fine. then ou try shutting down one of the machines and it fails over just fine. then you start the machine back up and it can't access the partition you set up for DRBD anymore. wtf!!! a lot of searching and apparently it's some kind of race condition in the startup scripts, but nobody's offering any tips to fix.

so, after trying out a lot of different configuration crap & following guides I basically figured out how to customize the configuration on my own and got it all working on debian. not only does it work right but debian vastly outperforms centos when syncing the data over the network. so yeah. there's a bit of a peculiarity with debian not having a startup script for tgtd, but you can just add it to rc.local and bob's your uncle.

holy poo poo it took me a while to figure out. might actually work better in centos 7 but I couldn't find all the requisite parts for drbd/corosync because EPEL/elrepo havne't caught up yet. idk. I try to use centos because it's the "enterprise" thing to do but debian just works??

hjalp me i have been having problems with my cable modem for a few days. i have 50/10 service from comcast but lately i have been getting more like 1.5/10. so i logged into the modem config (a motorola sb6141) and noticed i am having problems on 2 channels:


(upstream is oddly completely fine)

and i also noticed this in the logs:


(repeated over and over)

so i called comcast and had to speak to like 8 different people until i finally got one that understood what the issue was. they sent a tech out today and he rewired basically everything outside my house

aaannndd that fixed the problem until literally like 15 minutes after he left when the loving problem came back.

help me yospos i need internet with lots of bits quickly

oh also i went out and bought a completely new sb6141 to see if it was maybe a problem with my modem. nope! same loving problem and now i gotta drive all the way back to costco

lol our "dba" doesn't want to run oracle node manager as a service and instead wants us to start it as a scheduled task nevermind that the oracle documentation explicitly says to not do this and we in fact already tried this once due to a lovely contractor and it turns out that scheduled tasks have a low processor/memory/io priority which makes your massive database run like dogshit because inactive pages are constantly getting paged out good job idiot really earning your money this week

so do you have to run over 9000 virtual machines serving the same content to get apache to maybe work as well as nginx for certain types of site?
