at least the KVM/QEMU ones
(old Xen boxes not shown)
heh
they look like old servers lol
are those ibm's
up_the_irons: which datacenter are those in?
visinin: Wilshire Annex (Los Angeles)
guessing somewhere in los angeles
;)
jeev: do those really look like IBMs to you?  ;)
i dunno
guess you've never seen IBMs :)
yea, the old school ones
maybe these are supermicor's
i duno
ah, cool :)
so hey
ahh
i mixed up the blue and red
jeev: they are supermicro's
cool
have you ever stopped by the nickel diner downtown?
i had the best luck with those
ever stopped at chu's kitchen?
i used to love the place
visinin: no, i haven't
chu's is on 9th
up_the_irons: it's at 5th and main, just a little north of that intersection
across new moon
they have amazing food and pastries
i have or have managed several tons of supermicro's.  they have been very reliable :)
visinin: ah cool
i've spent the entire day trying to figure out how to build a xen kernel that's not 2.6.18
i think i finally got it
i'm gonna use xen on these wasting old boxes at the datacenters.. no virtualization ;/
benchmark score.. FINAL SCORE 47.4
lol
nasty but it's better than virtualbox's 10
qemu's 9
up_the_irons: be sure to grab a maple bacon donut from there sometime
i miss the nickel diner so much, goddamn
visinin: maple bacon?  sounds... interesting
jeev: Xen is good use for old boxes
it sounds a bit weird at first but oh man is it ever good
haha
i'm going to come back to LA just for the nickel diner, i swear
haha
Holy mother.. Never heard of maple bacon before, yet I've just gotten the cravings for it.. Thank you visinin
not a problem!
haha
bacon has too much fat, it's like eating a booger .. and i dont like doing those voluntarily
perhaps you just like bacon a bit crispier
i like legitimate meat
not fat, i can't stand looking or touching.. feeling it
nasty
Mmm.. Bacon..
i hate fat as well; but lean bacon cooked right can be quite good
Traditional danish dish (yes, it's bacon - not smoked though): http://www.23hq.com/oschlag/photo/3195583/large

too fatty
Nah, just fry it till it's crisp and put it on a paper towel to drain off excess fat :)
re
any ppl from support side?
up_the_irons
if you need support email support@ especially since nobody has responded yet ;-)
done it already :)
oh heh
thx anyway
actually posted on forum they have
posting on forum != sending email
toddf how does it comes you hang around here?
toddf work for arpnet?
Everyone except up_the_irons is a customer in here.
If you have more general questions feel free to ask them and we can make up pretty accurate answers. For immediate and 100% correct answers: if up_the_irons is actively talking in here, ask here; otherwise, email support@.
k
what he said ;-)
<-- customer
well, he done it for you ;)
somebody got them? D:
_mxb_: yo
nice, jeev :D
[11:32:36]        _mxb_ | toddf how does it comes you hang around here?
apparently toddf is famous
:)
 lists@obsd :)
haha
toddf been in sweden last time with the rest of openbsd.org?
mbx: I came to arpnetworks cuz they're the only place with the low cost vm solutions I've found to date that even remotely makes sense for me; the runner up was a vmware host with no console access and nat'ed dedicated ip for me to my vm session
yes, I was at n2k9
k
enjoyed?
I think my wife enjoyed it more, I was tired tramping all over instead of riding in a car like I'm used to; I kept insisting it was the heavy backpack I had on with our waters and snacks and layers of clothes incase it got cold etc .. plus my laptop of course .. but she liked to poke fun anyway
=)
well, this is the job we have to take sometimes :)
arn't we :)
been in sweden before?
visinin: i'm just kidding, wanted to make you jealous
:)
:( :( :( :( :(
i do not like you very much
hahah
i want to go to downtown though
yang chow and chu's kitchen
shekarchi restaurant is good too
mxb: that was both of our first trip to europe
toddf: someone in ipv6-ops had suggested that the router side of a link local address could be set simply to fe80::1/64, on a customer VLAN.  It simplifies the config a bit, and also makes the IP not change if the NIC MAC changes.  What do you think about this?
anyone ever insurance claim through fedex?
up_the_irons: I do this myself, actually .. so I like the idea
one thing to note since you're considering this and I happen to know you're using OpenBSD for IPv6 routing
put this for the first line in whatever hostname.* file for the IPv6 router:
inet6 fe80::1
any other 'inet6' should be 'inet6 alias address' but if the first line in the conf file is that and it is a link local address you can skip the 'alias' bit
corrilary is that this becomes difficult with vlan interfaces, it manages to assign the eui-64 link local prior to the 1st line being parsed somehow
it is indicative of the fact that I (or someone) needs to figure out how to fix this that I have this in a host's hostname.if file:
down vlandev gem0
inet6 fe80::6a
!ifconfig \$if inet6 delete fe80::230:65ff:fe75:24d4
up
