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 ***: Olipro has quit IRC (Quit: ZNC, Courtesy of OpenWRT)

oooh
new pf logging
this sounds sweet ***: nomadlogic has joined #arpnetworks RandalSchwartz: if a log falls in a forest, and no one is there to read it, does it still use up bytes? ***: Wraithan has left "WeeChat 0.3.6-dev"

HighJinx has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) baza: greetings - does anyone know how additional diskspace will be presented? I'm almost out of space and would like to buy some more RandalSchwartz: that's a faq in the arp wiki baza: missed it on the first go around..
does anyone know if growfs is included in the openbsd bsd.rd? I can check when I get home - no worries
ha, all the google searches point back to chats here :) RandalSchwartz: heh
that's cuz the smart folks hang out here toddf: baza: growfs can be copied to the ramdisk and/or run from the root filesystem presuming you're not using 1 big filesystem still
todd@t41/pd ~¦8827$ grep growfs /usr/src/distrib/ramdisk/list /usr/src/distrib/amd64/common/list
todd@t41/pd ~¦8828$
I'd vote that a solid 'no' on being on the ramdisk by default baza: i do have one big partition currently
growfs sounds a bit scary too toddf: its worked every time I've used it
but you really should have a backup of your arp vps anyway, so it should be much less scary jdoe: don't listen to him, man. Live dangerously. baza: yeah - not that scary - i do have a backup, but time wasted is the scary part
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 toddf: /sbin/growfs .. /bin and /sbin are statically linked
growfs doesn't adjust mbr nor disklabel for you, you'll need to do that prior to using growfs
but other than that, yeah, it'll be that simple baza: ah - but what about swap toddf: nix it, grow a - space for swap, add swap back baza: it's at the end of the disk, i'd have to move that as well
yeah toddf: no data to move, so no biggie baza: cool - i'll give it a try on a test system this weekend RandalSchwartz: tonight I'm growing two ZFS systems in-place too
must be a "get bigger" weekend :) baza: doesnt zfs have a flag to automatically grow RandalSchwartz: I have to gpart resize too
requires a few minutes of downtime
shutdown -p; boot from dvd; fixit shell; gpart recover ad0; gpart resize ...; reboot
and zfs will be magically bigger toddf: freebsd needs to learn about bsd.rd ***: wallshot has joined #arpnetworks
bharatak has joined #arpnetworks baza: one more thought - after my drive gets the new space, will disklabel automatically see the new space and put it in partition c? toddf: in order you'll need to do the following:
- run fdisk to extend mbr partition
- run disklabel
- use 'b' to extend disk size from disklabel's perspective
- if the c slice is not resized, use 'm c' to extend it
- 'd b'
- 'm a'
- 'a b'
- 'w' 'q'
- growfs /dev/rwd0a baza: cool, thanks! ***: tigerpaw- is now known as tigerpaw

tigerpaw has joined #arpnetworks toddf: note that until you run growfs, you can continue to mount and boot the existing filesystem as per the old size. baza: ok - hope to find time to test it in vmware this weekend.. then i'll order up more space, thanks for the great support toddf: 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 ;-) baza: put it in a FAQ jpalmer: toddf: I think that info is in a FAQ though baza: and i'll play the lottery
i didnt find the 'how to ' stuff - just how the new space can be presented toddf: jpalmer: need a faqbot or something here *grin* jpalmer: hehe baza: i can write up my notes.. jpalmer: actually, an infobot that only answers when addressed might not be a bad plan. with just links to the approriate FAQ. toddf: 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

Joah has joined #arpnetworks Joah: hi, i was looking into arpnetworks for a VPS and i am wondering if any type of (D)DoS protection is included with your VPSes toddf: the only thing ARP does to your packets is to limit the connection rate to port 22. you should not expect to keep your vps if you intend to be the target of (D)DoS attacks. Joah: ok, thanks for the help ***: Joah has quit IRC (Quit: night) DDevine: Whats the difference between getting slashdotted and getting DDOSed? Olipro: a slashdotting won't hammer your port like a DDoS ***: tigerpaw has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) DDevine: Oh you mean specifically 22.
Or behavioural pattern? ***: tigerpaw has joined #arpnetworks
