[00:52] *** LT has joined #arpnetworks [01:40] up_the_irons: for what it's worth, the thing I don't like is when a whole DC goes down multiple times in a short period, and the company that are using them for their services, don't ask the hard questions or provide actual information to customers [01:41] from what I can tell, Wednesday's issue was a 10-20 minute network blip, and if I cared about anything in particular, I'd have a warm/cold backup in another datacentre [05:09] *** Olipro has quit IRC (Quit: ZNC, Courtesy of OpenWRT) [05:09] *** Olipro has joined #arpnetworks [05:47] *** tigerpaw- has joined #arpnetworks [05:49] *** tigerpaw has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [06:12] *** heavysixer has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [06:40] overselling != overcommiting. their definition of overselling may be "we don't sell more than you ask for." and have *nothing* to do with the resources.

I'm almost out of space and would like to buy some more [10:59] that's a faq in the arp wiki [11:02] missed it on the first go around.. [11:05] does anyone know if growfs is included in the openbsd bsd.rd? I can check when I get home - no worries [11:09] ha, all the google searches point back to chats here :) [11:10] heh [11:10] that's cuz the smart folks hang out here [11:12] baza: growfs can be copied to the ramdisk and/or run from the root filesystem presuming you're not using 1 big filesystem still [11:14] todd@t41/pd ~¦8827$ grep growfs /usr/src/distrib/ramdisk/list /usr/src/distrib/amd64/common/list [11:14] todd@t41/pd ~¦8828$ [11:14] I'd vote that a solid 'no' on being on the ramdisk by default [11:15] i do have one big partition currently [11:15] growfs sounds a bit scary too [11:16] its worked every time I've used it [11:17] but you really should have a backup of your arp vps anyway, so it should be much less scary [11:18] don't listen to him, man. Live dangerously. [11:18] yeah - not that scary - i do have a backup, but time wasted is the scary part [11:18] so - i can boot bsd.rd, mount my one large partition, copy growfs(need to check if it uses any dynamic libs) unmount then grow.. sounds like a dream [11:19] /sbin/growfs .. /bin and /sbin are statically linked [11:19] growfs doesn't adjust mbr nor disklabel for you, you'll need to do that prior to using growfs [11:19] but other than that, yeah, it'll be that simple [11:21] ah - but what about swap [11:21] nix it, grow a - space for swap, add swap back [11:21] it's at the end of the disk, i'd have to move that as well [11:21] yeah [11:21] no data to move, so no biggie [11:22] cool - i'll give it a try on a test system this weekend [11:23] tonight I'm growing two ZFS systems in-place too [11:23] must be a "get bigger" weekend :) [11:23] doesnt zfs have a flag to automatically grow [11:24] I have to gpart resize too [11:24] requires a few minutes of downtime [11:25] shutdown -p; boot from dvd; fixit shell; gpart recover ad0; gpart resize ...; reboot [11:25] and zfs will be magically bigger [11:27] freebsd needs to learn about bsd.rd [11:28] *** wallshot has joined #arpnetworks [11:36] *** bharatak has joined #arpnetworks [11:39] one more thought - after my drive gets the new space, will disklabel automatically see the new space and put it in partition c? [11:47] in order you'll need to do the following: [11:47] - run fdisk to extend mbr partition [11:47] - run disklabel [11:47] - use 'b' to extend disk size from disklabel's perspective [11:48] - if the c slice is not resized, use 'm c' to extend it [11:48] - 'd b' [11:48] - 'm a' [11:48] - 'a b' [11:48] - 'w' 'q' [11:48] - growfs /dev/rwd0a [11:50] cool, thanks! [11:51] *** tigerpaw- is now known as tigerpaw [11:51] *** tigerpaw has quit IRC (Changing host) [11:51] *** tigerpaw has joined #arpnetworks [11:53] note that until you run growfs, you can continue to mount and boot the existing filesystem as per the old size. [11:58] ok - hope to find time to test it in vmware this weekend.. then i'll order up more space, thanks for the great support [12:01] hopefully the next person finds this discussion in a search .. us fellow customers aren't always jonny on the spot, you just got lucky today ;-) [12:02] put it in a FAQ [12:02] toddf: I think that info is in a FAQ though [12:02] and i'll play the lottery [12:02] i didnt find the 'how to ' stuff - just how the new space can be presented [12:02] jpalmer: need a faqbot or something here *grin* [12:02] hehe [12:03] i can write up my notes.. [12:03] actually, an infobot that only answers when addressed might not be a bad plan. with just links to the approriate FAQ. [12:04] I'd go a step further. so many questions are so commonly asked there should be a list of regexes that if seen would respond with the FAQ entry [12:04] s/the FAQ/the corresponding FAQ/ [12:21] ' [12:21] *** bharatak has quit IRC (Quit: leaving) [12:22] Heh.

[22:08] ok, thanks for the help [22:21] *** Joah has quit IRC (Quit: night) [22:34] Whats the difference between getting slashdotted and getting DDOSed? [22:39] a slashdotting won't hammer your port like a DDoS [22:54] *** tigerpaw has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [23:01] Oh you mean specifically 22. [23:01] Or behavioural pattern?
