Alas you're still on an ancient version of Weechat :p up_the_irons: yup this vm didn't get upgraded, only the host :) brycec: is "apt-get upgrade" "/upgrade" that hard? -: brycec <3 weechat's /upgrade mercutio: heh
yeh the /upgrade is cool
although it stays in the process list up_the_irons: i never even knew of that mercutio: neither did i until i used it :)
it keeps all of your open windows etc up
live on the wild side, upgrade carbon to trusty :) up_the_irons: i am doing so now, in fact mercutio: sweet brycec: w00t
Yeah even keeps the connections open.
All thanks to some fancy /proc footwork. mercutio: oh i didn't realise that
that's amazing :)
i want to understand how that works more now BryceBot: That's what she said!! mercutio: it'd be cool if tmux upgrades could behave the same :/
i upgraded tmux on ubuntu once, and had to downgrade it to resume my tmux session.. brycec: LOL
Put very simply, /upgrade overwrites the executable in-memory (/proc/$pid/exe), sets a flag in memory, and restarts the program
That way all open fd's remain open, etc ***: up_the_irons has quit IRC (Quit: WeeChat 0.4.3)

<.< up_the_irons: worked :) brycec: Word. mike-burns: I'm about to upgrade FreeBSD 9.3 to OpenBSD 5.7 on my VPS. According to ls -ltr in /etc, this VPS is from 1 May 2009.
Just bragging about how old the VPS is. brycec: I'm currently working to upgrade: drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Aug 12 2008 disklabels
aka OpenBSD 4.4 mike-burns: Oh snap. brycec: yep, fun times
The OpenBSD upgrade itself was straightforward as always, kudos to OpenBSD. it's the packages and website on top
(was, and will be. first in testing, then I'll get to do it all again for production) mike-burns: That's what I would expect.
Does OpenBSD still face mpbios issues on the VPS? up_the_irons: good question brycec: Hasn't cropped up lately. Think it was fixed in recent OpenBSD's mercutio: it doesn't on recent kvm versions brycec: and/or recent KVM's mercutio: or recent openbsd
haha
i'm not sure which now :) brycec: I know I had no issues with it mercutio: are you on a recent machine mike? mike-burns: kvr02. Recent enough right? mercutio: haha it's numbered low :) mike-burns: But it's not 1! brycec: But up_the_irons may have upgraded it recently anyhow mercutio: i think it's not recent... mike-burns: Yeah I think it is not upgraded. up_the_irons: kvr02 is still old mercutio: it's got high uptime probably :) up_the_irons: only 778 days mike-burns: Hahahha.
So I'll let you all know whether mpbios is fixed thanks to a recent OpenBSD or thanks to a recent kvm. mercutio: heh up_the_irons: lol mercutio: are you using smp?
if not you should be able to disable it regardless. up_the_irons: mike-burns: there's another issue though... you might not want to reboot :/ mike-burns: Oh fair enough; I don't actively make use of it. mercutio: yeh mike you should just get an extra vps :) up_the_irons: it hangs somewhere else... i've had to migrate VMs to different hosts because of it mike-burns: Interesting. up_the_irons: recent OpenBSD and old kvm don't play nice
we're going to upgrade kvr02 next week mike-burns: I can wait. up_the_irons: cool mike-burns: Thank you for the heads-up. up_the_irons: np! mercutio: is there a kvr01? up_the_irons: nope mercutio: heh up_the_irons: or is there? mercutio: well that's how mike got a @ i suppose :)
looooong time user. up_the_irons: ;)
mike was one of the first... mercutio: well i can ping it.. BryceBot: That's what she said!! up_the_irons: LOL mercutio: kvr01 is internal? up_the_irons: you can ping kvr01??! mercutio: yes up_the_irons: there is no kvr01... mercutio: PING kvr01.arpnetworks.com (208.79.88.66) 56(84) bytes of data.
reverse lookup says mercury though up_the_irons: oh i guess i just aliased it
that's mercury.arpnetworks.com
mercury was the first box
so you can consider it kvr01 mercutio: was it kvm? mike-burns: Nice naming scheme. up_the_irons: yes and still is
it has a couple handful VMs on it mercutio: what does kvr stand for? up_the_irons: Kvm ViRtual machine mercutio: ahh
it wsa bugging me what r could stand for :) up_the_irons: haha mercutio: i kept thinking router
which of course made no sense. up_the_irons: right mike-burns: I could only picture "rachine", which makes no sense. mercutio: haha
rack
that could work
kvm virtual rack up_the_irons: "rachine" sounds cool ***: mnathani_ has quit IRC ()

jcv has joined #arpnetworks dne: which acpi event is sent to VMs when taking down hosts for maintenance? mine apparently didn't shut down cleanly (kvr30)... up_the_irons: power down i believe dne: ok, sounds reasonable grody: heh windows hyper-v happy runs FreeBSD .. but dang does linux hate it
it works, boots etc. but it's laggy to hell mercutio: curious
windows hyperv should work fine with linux dne: yeah, seems to work ok for me grody: might try a custom 4.x kernel before ruling it out dne: debian >= wheezy and *EL 5 & 6 grody: using debian 8.1.0
it appears to be using LIS - i mean, it must be dne: only tried wheezy, tbh mercutio: is it video that's laggy or network?
because i've found esxi laggy for video too grody: IO as a whole - using it headless mercutio: ahh grody: using the [Gentoo] (generation 2) layout, it wont even boot dne: grody: is it using the paravirtualised disk/net drivers? grody: i know i had to assign it the legacy network adapter for it to even work
using an identical layout (just ram/disk sizes differ) to the FreeBSD
ah.. spotted why
right.. network fixed - disk IO is a blunder
im using dynamic VHDX and the default block size isn't helping
better.. this windows box has 8 cores and is bloody fast, i just need some more power to build AOSP 5.1 (my poor laptop alone took 5.0.2 11 hours last time) mercutio: how long does the 8 core box do it in? grody: no idea.. it's a clean install of windows 10 with absolutely no development tools
not my box either.. but he says i can use 4 cores for a day or two
i7-5960X
lappy is a AMD-N830

d'oh! anisfarhana: !!!!
Does "Garry Dolley" is here?
Probably not :D acf__: that would be up_the_irons :P anisfarhana: Ohhhh
Ha ha ha
acf__: No kidding? acf__: yep anisfarhana: Thanks for the info. I wanna pm him now :D acf__: what other VPS provider has an official IRC channel.. :D anisfarhana: And what other VPS provider less concern about money even they need $$ to operate the biz :D
Hoorah arpnetworks! twobithacker: oh wow, I haven't been to the website in a while brycec: It's poor etiquette to PM a stranger on IRC. Just like you wouldn't walk up to a stranger on the street and pull them into an alley.
(or maybe you would, and that's why your face is on a "Wanted" poster) m0unds: i only pm to send inappropriate pictures
just ask gizmoguy_ staticsafe: heh brycec: heh
I guess that would be equivalent to simply flashing someone in public.
(flashing them a photo, of course) m0unds: just have to be sure the target is outside US jurisdiction is all
it was nice to be able to do yard work today and not feel like i'm going to combust
i'm not suited for living in >100F temps gizmoguy_: yeah i have got some hot ones m0unds: `;->~ ***: grody has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
grody has joined #arpnetworks mercutio: i'm not sure i'm convinced that it's poor etiquitte to pm strangers on irc. m0unds: is that an invitation? mercutio: well is it any better if someone asks if they can pm you? m0unds: for the most part, i only get pms from bots mercutio: i would say it's more akin to walking up to a stranger at a party brycec: Except that the IRC channel is that party. -: mercutio checks pm's which he never shuts mercutio: brycec: you never talk to people 1 on 1 at a party? m0unds: would it be like following someone to the bathroom? brycec: mercutio: Any time I have to change windows, that's akin to going to a separate room at a party mercutio: i just had to change windows becuase you said my name
i was checking my pm's damnit :)
anyone, yeh, sure, pm me people if you have something specific to say to me :)
m0unds: what i've wondered is why so many parties end up in the kitchen.. m0unds: food mercutio: usually food isn't in kitchen
at least parties i go to :) m0unds: my downstairs is just the living room, kitchen and dining room
all open, no walls mike-burns: There are two kinds of PMs, from what I've seen: things that anyone could answer but you got singled out, and a friend gossiping with you specifically. I abhor the former and enjoy the latter. mercutio: mike: that's why i said specific to me. hah. yeah, sometimes especially in random channels you say something semi-helpful and someone will pm you mike-burns: Yeah srsly. BryceBot: srsly mike-burns: Thanks, BryceBot . m0unds: whadda guy
/bot mike-burns: In general, if I haven't met you IRL, you probably shouldn't be PMing me. -: mercutio pm's mike :) mercutio: i suppose it's like real life, some people care much more than others.
but it's harder to read people. -: mercutio has never had cause to pm mike mike-burns: But if you ever have some great gossip, just let me know! mercutio: m0unds: that actually sounds good for a party :)
party at m0unds's place! m0unds: haha, byob brycec: mike-burns++ Exactly! That's really what it boils down to - people you know vs strangers randomly singling you out, and I abhor the latter as well.
"it's harder to read people" Technically, all you can do is /read/ me :p
(unless you've watched an interview of me)
Agreed, prime party layout @ m0unds mercutio: brycec: i was thinking read in the moment, it does tend to make conversations a lot easier ***: kellytk has joined #arpnetworks
