T4
T4 works now, at least, I get the .CSV and zipped HTML files with chart sent by email), and as far as I can see, it looks good on first glance. The graphs are just the IO and interrupt stack usage, there must no doubt be more, that will just be a matter of defining the right stuff in the collector script. Second, there must be another way to publish the charts, but I’ll have to look for a way to incorporate these in the operator web. It requires, no doubt, some enhancements to t4collect.com.
Another thing to add is the weblog-to-t4 translator I created during the bootcamp. That’s still be retrieved from the laptop….
Suse
Novell’s SUSE desktop has been installed on my old Compaq laptop, it did connect to the network and got it’s address by DHCP (at least, that’s my idea) but the performance is very, very bad. The machine has 512 Mg internal memory – and video takles some of that, the current requirements stated that 256 could do but 512 is highly recommended.
Anyway, DHCP doesn’t work anymore. That is, the address is not within the range where it should be. However, Diana showed an address for this machine (iona) so I made fixed this address to the NIC.
Next version of OpenSUSE is 10.2, I downloaded the single DVD-image on Iona but I couldn’t get it off the disk: I tried using Samba connection to Aphrodite but that broke at about 30%. FTP to Diana faled at about 35%….Nor could I get it by FTP: connection refused – so no access at all. The configyration doesn’t show an FTP daemon – it might not be present…
Now I put Diana to work – I downloaded bot the Enterprise server and desktop via the VMS box, FTP’d the to Aphrodite and burned a DVD there – which can than be used to update Iona.
It might, or might not be the right solution. See if I can get some memory for Iona.
MySQL crash
but a different this time:
070723 22:39:20 InnoDB: Error: the OS said file flush did not succeed
070723 22:39:20 InnoDB: Operating system error number 12 in a file operation.
InnoDB: Error number 12 means 'not enough core'.
InnoDB: Some operating system error numbers are described at
InnoDB: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Operating_System_error_codes.html
InnoDB: File operation call: 'flush'.
InnoDB: Cannot continue operation.
Might be pgflquota fro the MySQL_SERVER process? There is sufficient page file available (I hope!). Just restarted it.
