Well, it has been a struggle, yet it is all over, almost. For a few days now the FIRST FEDORA MIRROR IN CHINA has been online. Proudly sponsored by CANDIS and urged on by the Beijing Linux Users Group. There are still some tweaks to happen and more data sets to be added over time, [...]
Excellent Results! CPU System load was DOWN. This is due to much better disk IO (reduced wait times) and as such, user processes get to breath and send stuff back to clients in a speedy fashion.
I knew the config files were different between 7.4 and 8.1 and that some items merely changed names and some were deprecated. I used this excellent resource before. Even the very rudimentary tweaks I did, and with a RAID array that is in a 90% rebuild rate, background initialisation, this 8.1 version is FAST! I [...]
Well, the PostgreSQL upgrade was a snap, sorta. I needed to do a full dump and restore as this was a major version change – no surprises there. What pissed me off though, is that when using the binary data type for dump files when using pg_dump (“-T c”) the resulting backup file is of [...]
Well this week was fun. For some reason one of our main clusters that runs client ASP software for general office, file, email, collaboration, etc… went crazy. First I noticed that the usual night time “Vacuum’s” that are needed to keep the PostgreSQL planar at it’s most efficient and indexes clean, was running right into [...]
Software Freedom Day is a global, grassroots effort to educate the public about the importance of software freedom and the virtues and availability of Free and Open Source Software. Local teams from all over the world organise events on the third Saturday in September. The most recent event involved over 200 teams from all over [...]
Well, it seems only appropriate that with Linux World China being next week and all, that Red Hat are going to get some LTO2 tapes shipped. I didn’t even check on my status today, but I was hovering around ~77GB. 540 odd GB to go! I would like to pull from Japan, but they use [...]
Well, I lost track of time. However long it has been, I am now at 44GB! Only a couple hundred left to go. Why Red Hat? Why are your core mirrors so piss weak in China compared to other distros?
Well, something around 96 hours and we have ~24 GB. As Colonel Slade would quip; “Hoo ha!” </Sarcasm>
Well, it has been about 56 hours and we have ~18GB…….as long as China doesn’t run out of electricity, or myself of years on this planet. Then it will eventually complete…….eventually.
CANDIS has been running out of their own pocket a CentOS mirror for almost a year now. The first in Beijing and second in China. We have been trying to get the FIRST fedora mirror in China up and it is nigh to impossible. Everyone in China complains of how hard it is to get [...]
