jpalmer: just experimenting with more fluid communication between hosts in our cluster. the end goal being automated vps provisioning (e.g., click a button in the Portal, get a new VM), which is like my holy grail project it may also make automated ISO changes easier (although i have most of that done w/o zeromq) it was just pretty cool with, like, a 5 line ruby script on the Portal server and a couple VM hosts, they were all able to send messages around up_the_irons: are you around for a bit to try out the link status on switches for the dedicated server mnathani: yes, in fact i'm at the data center too; i could physically unplug stuff ;) cool I am pinging the ARP gateway from one of the VMs and also pinging the public IP of one of the VMs should I be monitoring anything else? that should do it i'll unplug a nic ok done first NIC is unplugged I got one request time out then back to ping nice NICE let me plug it back in ok, i plugged it back in and unplugged the other one again a single timeout then back to ping Awesome Packets: Sent = 518, Received = 516, Lost = 2 (0% loss), bad ass so yeah, your settings are golden being able to push traffic through two completely separate switches is great, and that it fails over / back automatically It really is Thanks for trying it out so we know it really works :-) I noticed your ISO library page has the VMware image listed on it now. Cool! mnathani: yeah, i'm a fan of, "it doesn't work until you test that it works!" so, now we know for sure and yeah, i update that page whenever a new ISO goes up up_the_irons: is the NTT link in yet? mercutio: no ahh cool better than finding my route doesn't go over it :) hah mnathani: are you doing simple bonding, or LACP or what? up_the_irons: did you add functionality to mount our own ISO's now, and I just didn't realize it? jpalmer: it's not up yet, but i'm about 50% done with it in a branch locally jpalmer: Its NIC teaming options under VMware ESXi 5.1 mnathani: oh, gotcha. jpalmer: mnathani provided docs and nice screenshots; it will go into a KB article *nod* I just wasn't sure if you were doing it at the switch or NIC level yeah, nothing in the switch; the switches should be agnostic as possible mnathani: its bond'ing under proxmox.com ;-) http://www.circleid.com/posts/north_korea_suffers_internet_outage_us_blamed/ happy Friday sup up_the_irons sup staticsafe just working on some tickets here... fun apple fritter ice latte hello friday lol I don't remember where I picked that up I think someone goes around flooding EFNet with that on Fridays sounds a bit familiar north korea has internet? via hongkong or china can't remember which China, and now Intelsat now=last year They have a whopping ONE connection essentially yeh but they don't have many users
