- 20:39 < axk4545> at least we have a chanserv
- 20:40 < repkam09> Ooo yep
- 20:40 < axk4545> ##ritcs2018 lost theirs.
- 20:41 < axk4545> it literally left a few minutes after I joined
- 20:42 < repkam09> Nate, do you know who papertigers is IRL?
- 20:43 < thenaterhood> no idea
- 20:43 < thenaterhood> i think we had this search at one point before
- 20:43 < repkam09> Yeah...
- 20:43 < repkam09> Looks like its Michael Zeller
- 20:43 < thenaterhood> ahhhh, okay
- 20:44 < thenaterhood> damn, i talked to him in person a few months ago too
- 20:44 < thenaterhood> surprised he's not on, actually
- 20:44 < repkam09> mailto:mike@mikezeller.net according to his npm profile
- 20:44 < axk4545> he the faculty sponsor?
- 20:44 < thenaterhood> no he's an rit grad
- 20:44 < repkam09> No, just an alum
- 20:44 < repkam09> Also https://twitter.com/papertigerss
- 20:45 < repkam09> Seems to be active on Twitter :p
- 20:45 < thenaterhood> i'll try to catch him on twitter then. don't know his email situation since his site points to another url
- 20:45 < repkam09> Yeah
- 20:47 < thenaterhood> i think we tried to talk to him at one point but didn't get anywhere but we'll see
- 20:47 < thenaterhood> room's pretty quiet either way though
- 20:47 < repkam09> What is the ritlug-bot?
- 20:47 < repkam09> What does that even do?
- 20:47 < axk4545> well there was the poke fight?
- 20:47 < thenaterhood> not a clue. fossbox has a bot too
- 20:47 < axk4545> *.
- 20:48 < axk4545> keepspammers out?
- 20:48 < repkam09> Could be
- 20:49 < thenaterhood> looks like it's running on donatello?
- 20:49 < repkam09> Oooo
- 20:49 < thenaterhood> huh. apparently there's a slack/irc bridge
- 20:50 < axk4545> i just asked #rit-foss what theirs does. you mean donatello the CS machine or is that ritlug?
- 20:50 < thenaterhood> that's ours
- 20:50 < repkam09> Irssi is running on donatello
- 20:50 < repkam09> It might just be logging this chat to somewhere
- 20:51 < thenaterhood> probably the case
- 20:51 < repkam09> Started by kmg2728 who I imagine is Kevin?
- 20:51 < thenaterhood> yeah
- 20:51 < repkam09> Its in a tmux session
- 20:51 < thenaterhood> lol course it is
- 20:52 < axk4545> before this year ends we should find the physical location of ritlug servers so that the next group running it knows whenever it is
- they need to.
- 20:53 < thenaterhood> they're in the bioinformatics datacenter
- 20:53 < repkam09> Oops
- 20:53 < thenaterhood> lol i saw that
- 20:53 < repkam09> I typed in ritfoss on kevins account
- 20:53 < thenaterhood> yeeesss ya did
- 20:53 < axk4545> oh oops.
- 20:54 < axk4545> we need a map to them.
- 20:55 < thenaterhood> wouldn't really matter if you had one, you'd have to get the keys anyway
- 20:55 < repkam09> Got a response from Zeller. He said to ping him on IRC tomorrow and he will help. Hes not on a computer right now
- 20:55 < thenaterhood> oh sweet
- 20:56 < repkam09> I wonder if Kevin knows hes been logged in on donatello for.... god knows how long
- 20:56 < thenaterhood> he's usually on top of things like that so i bet not
- 20:56 < axk4545> i know. what i mean is we need to add to the stuff that get passed down to eboard info to allow them to access them if needed. who to
- contact, etc
- 20:56 < thenaterhood> yeah that's a work in progress, hence the runbook
- 20:57 < thenaterhood> feel free to open an issue on that actually if you have a thought for something that should go in it
- 20:57 < thenaterhood> unfortunately ritlug was super bad at keeping records and most things were passed down by tribal knowledge
- 20:57 < thenaterhood> tried to change that a few years ago but nobody was too into it, but since most of us eboarders graduate close together we
- actually need to do it for real
- 21:01 < axk4545> what is the github?
- 21:02 < thenaterhood> github.com/ritlug/runbook is what you're looking for
- 21:02 < repkam09> ritlug-bot seems to be Clarie, not Kevin
- 21:02 < thenaterhood> right now it has how to post announcements, generally how to manage the website, how meetings go but that's all i've had a
- chance to do. adding as i think of things.
- 21:02 < thenaterhood> yeah it does
- 21:02 < axk4545> that would make sense.
- 21:08 < repkam09> Claire confirms that its her. And ritlug-bot just is that irssi window. She suggests just reimaging them all if we can and finding
- something new to do with it
- 21:09 < thenaterhood> or you know, finding something to do with it at all :P
- 21:09 < repkam09> Well, right ;)
- 21:10 < axk4545> does that mean this channel dies? also folding.stanford.edu
- 21:10 < repkam09> Nah, this channel should live on independent of our servers I would think
- 21:10 < thenaterhood> no, we don't host the channel ourselves, it's on freenode
- 21:11 < axk4545> folding@home seems a decent use for servers
- 21:11 < repkam09> They are pretty wimpy servers.. but maybe :p
- 21:11 < axk4545> and maybe the ritlug site. I ran folding@home on my 3 year old android phone.
- 21:11 < thenaterhood> one thing i just showed repkam09 is a slack/irc bridge. i know a number of people are interested in using slack so it could be
- something to check out
- 21:12 < axk4545> yeah. then those that want slack can have it and those that want irc, irc
- 21:12 < thenaterhood> the ritlug site is github pages, which is (hopefully) more accessible for people to contribute. not that anyone does, but well.
- wouldn't be a bad idea to mirror our github stuff though
- 21:12 < repkam09> We could have a workshop meeting on Friday, reinstall the servers, set up some of this stuff?
- 21:13 < thenaterhood> lol though, you don't know just how wimpy these servers are. 3 year old android phones are probably more powerful than these
- servers
- 21:13 < repkam09> Can we install on the servers without knowing where they physically exist?
- 21:13 < axk4545> yes. kexec.
- 21:13 < thenaterhood> in theory yes but it would be...stressful
- 21:13 < repkam09> Sounds like fun :D
- 21:13 < thenaterhood> we can talk to bioinf and try to get ahold of them
- 21:13 < repkam09> Also.... no kernel updates (or software updates) in 500ish days
- 21:14 < axk4545> you can also boot the iso through grub.
- 21:14 < axk4545> I vote fedora.
- 21:14 < repkam09> Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS <3
- 21:14 < xforever1313> Gentoo ;)
- 21:14 < axk4545> actually arch given the club userbase
- 21:14 < xforever1313> OH WAIT!
- 21:14 < xforever1313> Windows Server :D
- 21:14 < xforever1313> ;)
- 21:15 < repkam09> nopls
- 21:15 < thenaterhood> i'm not sure these systems are actually capable of running that lol ;)
- 21:15 * axk4545 shakes his head
- 21:15 < thenaterhood> dual core, 2800MHz it looks like for CPUs on them
- 21:15 < axk4545> they are only 3 years old. I ran 7 on a P4 i think
- 21:15 < repkam09> If we want them to actually run things maybe someday, I would think ubuntu or debian is the way to go. But I'm biased :p
- 21:16 < thenaterhood> ubuntu server may not be a bad idea, most people are pretty comfortable with ubuntu
- 21:16 < axk4545> repkam09: you are right in terms of useability
- 21:16 < thenaterhood> 6G of mem in them
- 21:16 < axk4545> *useability
- 21:16 < axk4545> pretty good for free servers
- 21:17 < thenaterhood> they're also not even sata
- 21:17 < axk4545> how?
- 21:17 < repkam09> Donatello shows the HDD as being 9gb...
- 21:17 < axk4545> what?
- 21:17 < thenaterhood> the drives are scsi
- 21:17 < axk4545> ah.
- 21:17 < repkam09> Im actually kind of amazed the drives are still working
- 21:17 < axk4545> I still don't believe the 9GB
- 21:17 < thenaterhood> yeah
- 21:17 < repkam09> But I guess they dont have very much activity on them
- 21:18 < thenaterhood> well these servers are absolutely ancient
- 21:18 < thenaterhood> they were donated by box
- 21:18 < thenaterhood> actually while I was there i should have asked for new ones lol
- 21:18 < repkam09> They do like throwing money at things :p
- 21:18 < axk4545> we should see if we can get a full spec list with a hardware detection thing.
- 21:19 < axk4545> especially students I am guessing
- 21:19 < thenaterhood> box? not really
- 21:19 * axk4545 will be AFK for a little
- 21:19 < repkam09> Oh. It was datto that does that
- 21:19 < thenaterhood> yeah that's datto
- 21:19 < repkam09> Not box
- 21:19 < thenaterhood> i have an offer from datto though, could look into things if i take it
- 21:20 < repkam09> lshw output: http://pastebin.com/8UuyRxXj
- 21:23 < repkam09> Looks like it probably has a 500gb drive
- 21:25 < repkam09> The appears to be a gentoo sage4 Xen image. But thats it for vms
- 21:25 < thenaterhood> yeah at one point VMs were the plan. i think at this point we should dedicate a server (since we have multiple) to club
- operations and the others to...whatever else
- 21:25 < thenaterhood> upgrades would be nice though
- 21:26 < repkam09> Ive got lots of stuff I run on a personal server that I could/would move onto another host if it was available
- 21:26 < repkam09> Bunches of nodejs projects
- 21:27 < axk4545> any idea what the blue bar in hexchat means?
- 21:27 < axk4545> it id on the right.
- 21:28 < repkam09> Never used hexchat
- 21:28 < thenaterhood> we could dedicate one server to club ops and set up a vetting process for hosting member projects, have them renew every year
- and do VMs or containers
- 21:28 < repkam09> That sounds neat
- 21:28 < axk4545> awesome idea.
- 21:29 < thenaterhood> actually if we're running latest ubuntu we can do containers through systemd, it's super easy
- 21:29 < axk4545> so one is 500 gb and the other is 8?
- 21:29 < thenaterhood> we have 5 servers, probably all the same specs
- 21:30 < axk4545> ok.
- 21:30 < axk4545> so one club ops, one members and one folding@home?
- 21:33 < thenaterhood> what we'd probably do is get them all under Puppet management or something. puppet can run on the club ops one and the others
- we'd have to decide what to do with
- 21:34 < axk4545> duh. forgot about puppet
- 21:35 < axk4545> jflory7 would probably be willing to help with setup as would I as long as I know what i am doing.
- 21:36 < axk4545> he is over in #fedora most of the time
- 21:37 < thenaterhood> we'll have to look into it
- 21:37 < axk4545> of course
- 21:38 < thenaterhood> it's hard to run a club with only two eboard members :P
- 21:38 < axk4545> who is eboard anyway? all I really know is that claire was.
- 21:39 < thenaterhood> me and mark
- 21:39 < axk4545> wow i was late onthat
- 21:40 < axk4545> i imagine it makes decisions easier though
- 21:41 < thenaterhood> that's why you never hear what eboard is doing, we just chat each other
- 21:41 < axk4545> aren't there a couple more? there were others at the club fair
- 21:42 < thenaterhood> nope
- 21:42 < thenaterhood> there's a few ritluggers who don't regularly come to meetings because of their schedules
- 21:42 < axk4545> ah
- 21:43 < thenaterhood> usually there's around 5 eboard members but we got stuck the end of last year. hopefully we can get enough new people this year
- that come elections there will be an eboard for next year
- 21:44 < axk4545> yeah
- 21:44 < thenaterhood> if it keeps up we'll have to elect eboard by conscription lol
- 21:47 -!- repkbot [~nodebot@104.131.42.105] has joined #ritlug
- 21:47 < repkam09> Ayyyy it worked
- 21:47 < repkam09> !help
- 21:47 < repkbot> Commands: !hype, !rekt, !told, !help
- 21:47 < axk4545> what?!
- 21:48 < repkam09> I wrote a Twitch.tv IRC bot a few weeks ago. But it works on normal irc as well :p
- 21:48 < repkam09> !hype
- 21:48 < thenaterhood> !hype
- 21:48 < repkbot> /me HYPE THRUSTERS ACTIVATED!! (http://gfycat.com/ActualFeistyBettong)
- 21:48 < repkbot> /me HYPE THRUSTERS ACTIVATED!! (http://gfycat.com/ActualFeistyBettong)
- 21:48 < repkam09> !rekt
- 21:48 < repkbot> Forrekt Gump
- 21:48 < repkam09> !rekt
- 21:48 < repkbot> The Rekt Files
- 21:48 < axk4545> thenaterhood: we could borrow from EGS.
- 21:49 < thenaterhood> we'll see what happens. we had good turnout for a while this semester but it tapered off. everyone seems relatively happy with
- the club though
- 21:49 < thenaterhood> unfortunately we missed a club fair...couple weeks ago because i forgot it was happening
- 21:50 < axk4545> I think we have a decent core group
- 21:51 < thenaterhood> well, we seem to have a core group if nothing else lol
- 21:51 < axk4545> then again it is linux.
- 21:51 < thenaterhood> it is, but there's a number of similar clubs that do fine
- 21:51 < axk4545> repkbot: lol
- 21:52 < repkam09> repkbot has a number of phrases it randomly picks from for !rekt and !told :p
- 21:52 < repkbot> Was foretold
- 21:52 < repkbot> The Rekt King
- 21:52 < repkam09> Like that
- 21:52 < axk4545> we should take up the old M$ strategy on them: embrace, extend, extinguish
- 21:53 < repkam09> I would have to reboot donatello to get the new kernel... what if it never comes back up o_o
- 21:53 < thenaterhood> well uh
- 21:53 < thenaterhood> that's a risk
- 21:53 < axk4545> that won't happen it isn't that old. also checkout kexec
- 21:53 < thenaterhood> lol
- 21:53 < repkam09> #yolo
- 21:54 < thenaterhood> well the issue with these is that they're so old, they may not come back up for hardware reasons too
- 21:54 < axk4545> kexec can load a kernel on the fly
- 21:54 -!- ritlug-bot [~ajc2549@donatello.rit.edu] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
- 21:54 < repkam09> :D
- 21:54 < thenaterhood> lol he's doin it
- 21:54 < repkam09> Its happening
- 21:54 < axk4545> welp
- 21:54 < thenaterhood> http://media1.giphy.com/media/5mBE2MiMVFITS/200.gif
- 21:55 < repkam09> Its not like its a production critical server :p
- 21:55 < thenaterhood> nah
- 21:55 < axk4545> who is that again?
- 21:55 < thenaterhood> bill o reilly
- 21:55 < repkam09> Ron Paul
- 21:55 < axk4545> ron paul
- 21:55 < repkam09> ^
- 21:56 < thenaterhood> i don't remember how long the things take to boot, though iirc it's quite a while
- 21:56 < repkam09> *cough* The prompt is not back yet *cough*
- 21:56 < axk4545> is it... is it ... dead? :(
- 21:56 < repkam09> OH ITS UP!
- 21:56 < thenaterhood> i can ping it no
- 21:56 < thenaterhood> YEP there it is
- 21:56 < axk4545> yasssss
- 21:57 < axk4545> it lives!
- 21:57 < repkam09> The hardware gods grace us this day
- 21:57 < thenaterhood> lol
- 21:57 < axk4545> what kkernel is it?
- 21:57 < axk4545> *kernel
- 21:58 < repkam09> 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.68-1+deb7u5 x86_64 GNU/Linux
- 21:58 < thenaterhood> 3.2.0 what was it before?
- 21:58 < repkam09> Im not sure how high this version of debian even goes...
- 21:58 < axk4545> ooooolddddd
- 21:58 < repkam09> Well, yeah
- 21:58 < axk4545> debian is "atable"(slow)
- 21:58 < axk4545> *stable
- 21:59 < repkam09> Its Debian 7
- 22:00 < repkam09> Actually lsb_release -da says its 7.9 wheezy
- 22:00 < axk4545> yep 7
- 22:01 < axk4545> i think it may max at 3.2 or maybe 3.12
- 22:03 < thenaterhood> meanwhile, 4.3 was just released
- 22:03 < repkam09> Yeahhhh
- 22:03 < thenaterhood> ubuntu lags too but a little less so
- 22:03 < thenaterhood> if we could get ubuntu server on those and Landscape management that might be good
- 22:04 < thenaterhood> don't know if Landscape lets you set up templates, but i imagine it does
- 22:06 < repkam09> I... nodejs isnt available on debian in the standard repos?
- 22:06 < repkam09> Interesting
- 22:10 < axk4545> repkam09: you should probably upgrade to Debian 8 Jessie and install unattended-updates. it handles autoupdates
- 22:11 < repkam09> Adding wheezy-backports got it
- 22:11 < axk4545> I am on 4.2.3-200 kernel
- 22:11 < thenaterhood> well i guess do we want to switch them to ubuntu or just upgrade them
- 22:12 < repkam09> Can we upgrade directly to jessie?
- 22:12 < axk4545> I think so.
- 22:12 < repkam09> Looks like we can, yeah
- 22:12 < axk4545> how do you do it on ubuntu? iirc apt-get dist-upgrade
- 22:13 < thenaterhood> i tried that, didn't seem to do anything
- 22:13 < repkam09> That doesnt do it completely
- 22:13 < repkam09> You need to switch apt to point to the other repository
- 22:13 < axk4545> ah.
- 22:13 < thenaterhood> aha that would be why
- 22:13 < repkam09> With like 's/wheezy/jessie/g' and then do dist-upgrade
- 22:13 < thenaterhood> we could try using Cockpit for management, cockpit also will handle containers if we decide to go that route for things
- 22:14 < thenaterhood> available for ubuntu, not sure about debian
- 22:14 < axk4545> if we want fancy things ubuntu might be better.
- 22:14 < axk4545> debian is super FOSS
- 22:14 < repkam09> Yeah.
- 22:14 < thenaterhood> cockpit is FOSS
- 22:14 < thenaterhood> far as i'm aware
- 22:15 < repkam09> About to try and upgrade to Jessie. Because why not.
- 22:15 < thenaterhood> sure, go ahead
- 22:15 < axk4545> go go go
- 22:15 < repkam09> Worst case we wipe it back to Ubuntu
- 22:15 < thenaterhood> yeah basically
- 22:15 < axk4545> if we can
- 22:15 < repkam09> Ehhh details details
- 22:15 < thenaterhood> that's a bridge to cross if we come to it
- 22:16 < thenaterhood> ubuntu may be a good bet though honestly. most things are compatible with it because it's used so widely
- 22:16 < repkam09> Yeah, I would agree with that move
- 22:16 < thenaterhood> and then we get Landscape out of the box which could be good
- 22:17 < thenaterhood> Landscape is not FOSS, however. But Cockpit is available for ubuntu too
- 22:17 < axk4545> check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux
- 22:17 -!- repkbot [~nodebot@104.131.42.105] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
- 22:17 < repkam09> I was looking at that page a few minutes ago
- 22:17 < repkam09> Seems possible. If scary.
- 22:18 < axk4545> don't you have to pay for landscape?
- 22:18 < thenaterhood> landscape is free for up to 10 devices (5 physical, 5 virtual i think)
- 22:18 < repkam09> " It is free for up to 10 physical machines and 10 more virtual"
- 22:18 < thenaterhood> providing you self host
- 22:18 < thenaterhood> oh i'm off by 1/2
- 22:19 < repkam09> I would love to get server monitoring up on here to monitor my DO servers.
- 22:19 < repkam09> That would be actually useful
- 22:19 < thenaterhood> take a look at cockpit, it looks pretty slick
- 22:19 < axk4545> I almost got ubuntu to install w/o a cd but then it wouldn't overwrite the HDD that contained the ISO
- 22:19 < thenaterhood> actually doing an install from within linux would likely be non-trivial since i'm pretty sure these have a raid configuration
- 22:20 < repkam09> Oooo. Yeah, I think they do
- 22:20 < thenaterhood> that said, since debian is apt-based i wonder if it would be possible to just switch everything to point to the ubuntu mirrors
- and run an upgrade
- 22:21 < thenaterhood> it sounds like a horrible idea but maybe doable
- 22:21 < repkam09> I dont think so
- 22:21 < repkam09> That would be interesting to try in a VM
- 22:21 < repkam09> Brb...
- 22:21 < thenaterhood> yep
- 22:23 < repkam09> Or.... I could spin up a DO droplet which is fater than downloading the debian iso to my machine...
- 22:23 < axk4545> for ubuntu?
- 22:23 < repkam09> To try an /apt/sources.list conversion from debian to ubuntu
- 22:24 < repkam09> I suspect you cant do that. But it might be entertaining
- 22:24 < thenaterhood> a quick google search says it's not trivial
- 22:24 < axk4545> donnatello still down?
- 22:24 < thenaterhood> donatello is up
- 22:24 < repkam09> Its up. Its just currently installing a LOT of packages
- 22:24 < axk4545> what happened to bot?
- 22:24 < thenaterhood> never restarted it
- 22:24 < repkam09> ritlug-bot? Its not really a bot, it was running in irssi on donatello
- 22:24 < repkam09> Someone would have to restart it
- 22:25 < repkam09> I could write a real bot for it :)
- 22:25 < thenaterhood> if cockpit is available for debian then switching to ubuntu may not really be that important since we can still do management.
- saves us the trouble if upgrading debian isn't bad
- 22:25 < repkam09> That pushes the chat to a website or something.
- 22:27 < axk4545> I meant repkbot
- 22:27 < thenaterhood> it just occurred to me that the blog post i'm writing, about taking time off from engineering, may not be the best thing to post
- while i'm applying to jobs
- 22:27 < axk4545> thenaterhood: I like that.
- 22:27 < repkam09> Haha
- 22:27 < repkam09> Ooh. Repkbot. I was just messing around with that
- 22:28 < axk4545> probably not.
- 22:28 < repkam09> Normall he lives on Twitch tv
- 22:28 < repkam09> Upgrade Progress: Scary bit. SSL update restarts sshd...
- 22:28 < thenaterhood> speaking of repka-built things, repcast kept crashing on me today
- 22:28 < thenaterhood> oh that should be okay, it's usually quick enough that it doesn't interrupt the session
- 22:28 < thenaterhood> if it doesn't. well.
- 22:28 < repkam09> Oh really? Whats it... doing or not doing?
- 22:28 < thenaterhood> lol
- 22:28 < repkam09> It worked fine, sshd. Thankfully
- 22:29 < thenaterhood> i tried to cast something and it worked, and i went back and it crashed
- 22:29 < axk4545> was he watching twitchinstallsarch
- 22:29 < thenaterhood> so i opened it and it crashed
- 22:29 < repkam09> Huh. Neat.
- 22:29 < repkam09> I did restart lighttpd earlier on that server...
- 22:29 < repkam09> If you happened to be on at the time that might have done it
- 22:29 < thenaterhood> oh maybe that was it, could have just been super bad timing
- 22:29 < axk4545> what is repcast?
- 22:29 < repkam09> An app my brother and I wrote for Chromecasting stuff from my server to a chromecast
- 22:30 < thenaterhood> i wanted to build a command line utility to do that and put it in the AUR but someone beat me to it
- 22:30 < repkam09> Ahh yeah
- 22:30 * axk4545 wants to know stuff and have skills
- 22:30 < repkam09> Just get a co-op and learn all the things, and then use them for personal use :p
- 22:30 < axk4545> but I guess that comes with time.
- 22:30 < repkam09> Thats how I did it lol
- 22:31 < thenaterhood> yeah you learn a lot on co-op
- 22:31 < axk4545> and experience
- 22:31 < repkam09> Oooo.
- 22:31 < repkam09> Uhhhh.
- 22:31 < axk4545> hmm?
- 22:31 < thenaterhood> yeah?
- 22:31 < repkam09> Xen.
- 22:31 < thenaterhood> oh, yeah that's a thing
- 22:31 < repkam09> Changes the grub config. Like a lot.
- 22:31 < axk4545> how?
- 22:31 < thenaterhood> i don't remember why Xen is even on these servers
- 22:32 < repkam09> I should be okay if I ignore it and overwrite with the package version...
- 22:32 < repkam09> It just wont have the xen kernel
- 22:32 < thenaterhood> in theory yeah
- 22:32 < axk4545> or remove xen
- 22:32 < repkam09> I think it will boot okay
- 22:32 < axk4545> it is a hypervisor AFAIK.
- 22:32 < repkam09> We'll see shortly
- 22:32 < repkam09> Yeah, it is
- 22:33 < repkam09> I'll check the grub config before it reboots
- 22:33 < axk4545> can you try removing it before the big risk?
- 22:33 < repkam09> Yeah
- 22:33 < axk4545> it would suck if you killed it.
- 22:33 < repkam09> Ive gotten so far. It would be sad
- 22:34 < axk4545> it is the ritlug baby.
- 22:34 < axk4545> :P
- 22:35 < thenaterhood> lol would just mean two of the servers are down
- 22:37 < axk4545> two?
- 22:37 < repkam09> Yeah. Splinter is already down. :(
- 22:37 < repkam09> Without anyone touching it...
- 22:37 < axk4545> jow?
- 22:38 < axk4545> *how?
- 22:38 < thenaterhood> it may have just crashed
- 22:38 < axk4545> another reason to go down there.
- 22:39 < thenaterhood> we really should move the servers anyway, where they are has some weird politics that we were trying to get away from at one point
- 22:39 < repkam09> Removing Xen... here goes nothing...
- 22:39 < axk4545> they should be in golisano
- 22:40 < repkam09> I dont think they are
- 22:40 < repkam09> Its somewhere weird
- 22:40 < thenaterhood> they're not
- 22:40 < axk4545> repkam09: good luck.
- 22:40 < thenaterhood> we're in the bioinformatics datacenter which is under either the college of business or the biomed building, i don't remember
- 22:40 < xforever1313> Aren't they in the biomedical building or someplace like that?
- 22:40 < xforever1313> Institute Hall?
- 22:40 < axk4545> what I mean is we should move them to gccis
- 22:40 < thenaterhood> no we shouldn't
- 22:40 < thenaterhood> gccis doesn't have datacenter space
- 22:41 < axk4545> no?
- 22:41 < axk4545> ah
- 22:41 < thenaterhood> bioinformatics is a gccis major, btw
- 22:41 < thenaterhood> their dc is not in gccis
- 22:41 < xforever1313> Unless we want to steal space in the black hole simulator room ;)
- 22:41 < thenaterhood> i don't think that would fly :P
- 22:41 < xforever1313> :P
- 22:41 < thenaterhood> research computing has other...things going on
- 22:41 < axk4545> so where should they go then
- 22:41 < thenaterhood> no we were talking about moving them to the institute hall datacenter
- 22:41 < thenaterhood> brand new datacenter
- 22:42 < repkam09> "No your machines are old and gross"

- 22:42 < thenaterhood> er, year before last
- 22:43 < thenaterhood> we talked about making arrangements to move them there but i don't think it actually happened
- 22:43 < axk4545> repkam09: we can bribe them maybe
- 22:43 < thenaterhood> lol the servers are the bribes
- 22:44 < thenaterhood> at the time the dc was empty and they were asking people for servers to put in it so they had things running there
- 22:44 < axk4545> isn't biomed institute hall
- 22:44 < thenaterhood> bioinformatics != biomed
- 22:44 < axk4545> oh
- 22:44 < axk4545> what do I know I hardly leave gccis
- 22:45 < thenaterhood> gotta get out more lol
- 22:45 < repkam09> But there are people out there...
- 22:46 < axk4545> scary people...
- 22:46 < thenaterhood> i know, like me

- 22:53 < thenaterhood> he died so young :'(
- 22:53 < axk4545> OMG
- 22:53 * xforever1313 becomes a ghost
- 22:54 * xforever1313 rests in peace
