jeev: up_the_irons
so can you compare 8.0 to 7.2 with unixbench ?
d^_^b: anyone know how we get our vps upgraded?
toddf: email support@ and state your demands
likely they'll reply with demands of funds, and both should be met
d^_^b: if it was easy to upgrade I would probably go that route.
toddf: presuming you mean upgrading the cpu/mem/disk resources of your vps
d^_^b: toddf: oh no os upgraded
openbsd 4.5 -> 4.6
toddf: it requires some downtime obviously but it's practically a faq, yes upgrades happen, just expect to pay the new ratescale ;-)
you just get to do that yourself
people like me charge for that service if you want my fingers in your vps I'd be glad to send you a bill, otherwise I'll just say that you should have the ssh console setup and boot bsd.rd from 4.6 and read the www.openbsd.org/faq/ about upgrading and you should be golden
if you've sent a ssh rsa pubkey to support@ formerly you have ssh console access
also be aware 'config -ef /bsd' and 'disable mpbios' is required for your vps to not hang when it touches the serial port(s) after boot
d^_^b: toddf: yeah up_the_irons sent me his blog post about that.
toddf: such a long blathering article to cover the basic concept of 'disable mpbios' ;-)
but such is the nature of journalism, nomatter what the form, I guess ;-)
d^_^b: toddf: the only reason I want to upgrade is so the user that is setup by arpnet is still present.

dbgi: up_the_irons, you still get an ipv6 block with the 20$ vps and what 1 ipv4 ip?
nvm i found the info
up_the_irons: dbgi: yeah
dbgi: thanks
up_the_irons: dbgi: but if you're an existing customer, you won't get another /48 IPv6, that would be excessive.
dbgi: you'd just share your existing /48
dbgi: thats not a big deal when you can make thousands of ipv6 ips from that
up_the_irons: yup
dbgi: this thats cool with me :)
up_the_irons: dbgi: how many IPv4 IPs do u have now?
dbgi: 13
up_the_irons: do you have some to spare?
dbgi: yea
up_the_irons: ok cool
wouldn't want to assign a 2nd single /30 to the existing subnet if u already have IPs
dbgi: yea thats cool
we can use one of my 13 for the new vps, thats not a problem
up_the_irons: great

jeev: ipv6 is crazy
ballen: craaaazy
jeev: coffee blows without coffee mate
ballen: jesus
jeev: what
ballen: coffee mate is lame
jeev: no way
ballen: yes way
jeev: it makes coffee drinkable
ballen: coffee is already plenty drinkable
jeev: nasty
ballen: I need to buy a fucking mattress
jeev: get the W hotels heavenly mattress
you can find like 40-50% off
ballen: want a foam one
and I don't like that mattress
jeev: ahh
ballen: W == Westin ?

up_the_irons: jeev: ballen: coffee mate sucks
jeev: take that back
up_the_irons: jeev: and yeah, ipv6 is quite complex
jeev: i'll personall pull the redundant power supply out of your servers!
personally!
hey when you have redundant power
up_the_irons: LOL
jeev: does the system use twice the amperage?
up_the_irons: no
jeev: or one stays idle
up_the_irons: it divides it
jeev: oh
i was thinking more of a failover
up_the_irons: it simply divides it; i've done the measurements, never saw a redundant PS that didn't do that
jeev: crazy
i dont trust redundancy..
just kidding, anyway
coffee without coffee mate or creamer is nasty
up_the_irons: for one circuit to take all the load and fail over when it fails is more of like an ATS scenario
ATS's do that, and is more for when you have only single power supply boxes
