17:56 -!- Irssi: Starting query in Freenode with iggi_ 17:56 www.ericknific.com/Tripplite_Fence 17:56 didn't see your PM 17:56 ah, there it is 17:57 yeah the example in the header is not correct 17:58 when you said STDIN as the input I didn't quite know what you wanted me to do I assume you mean taking in a stream of characters then parsing it into the variables used 17:58 12 seconds to confirm 17:59 no worries, I can do all that stuff 17:59 yeah I'm getting between 10 and 20 seconds 18:00 ok, leave this with me, let me merge it into the existing fence agent I have and I'll get a new version out to you for testing asap. 18:01 were you able to confirm it switches the port fast though? 18:01 ya, like you said, it cut it quickly, but the delay in the confirmation is odd. 18:02 however, I may be able to use this to go back to Tripp Lite 18:02 the understanding I had from them in the past was that they had the delay to avoid excessive in-rush current (which is BS, but set that aside). 18:02 I thinking the SNMP Web Card uses a SQLlite DB to serve the SNMP queries and so it probably updates it on a cron 18:02 so now with the port flipping quickly and the delay being on confirmation... that's a new one they will need to defend 18:03 could well be 18:03 if I had more time, I'd try to get into the firmware itself 18:03 regardless though, it's not really excusable. 18:11 yeah 18:11 their web interface is appalling 18:11 hehe 18:12 The only two things keeping me with them is the price and the next day advanced replacement I get from them 18:13 APC or TrippLite? 18:13 now, there is an option in SNMP to do a SNMP set with action 3 to avoid the script checking and it will switch off then on the port 18:13 Tripplite 18:14 ya, not skipping confirmation 18:14 delay is a lesser evil 18:14 lol 18:14 * digimer creates fence_tripplit_snmp and starts to merge 18:15 If you look tripplite PDU's are <200 for a 24 port vertical and with advance replacement and web management, you can't beat it lol 18:16 for most operations 18:20 ya, except they suck as a fence device. lol 18:20 Well that is a small part of my business lol 18:20 true, but it's the part I care about. heh 18:20 There's not really a budget for me to go elsewhere 18:21 well, I'll get this working... if worse comes to worse, it'll work but recovery will be slow. 18:21 Well recovery is already slow lol, my SAN's have super slow read speeds 18:21 a drbd sync from 0-100% is 48 hours 18:22 ouch... how many tb? 18:24 6TB 18:24 They're economy SATA drives, so it's expected 18:26 ah 18:29 Alright, I'll stop bothering you for now, let me know if you need help 18:33 can you give me you send me an email saying that the agent is released under GPL v2+ 18:33 assuming you are okay with that. :) 18:34 Oh so you can change it and sell it!? Nah, I don't care it's all fine with me 18:34 It's a Red Hat requirement for anything committed to their git repo. 18:34 any monkey who knows BASH could write it 18:34 What email? 18:35 true, but because I want this to ultimately be pushed into RHEL (via Fedora), I want to keep everything done right. :) 18:35 for the fencing_agents package? 18:35 ya 18:35 won't happen overnight, obviously 18:36 but once it's done, you can start using it right away. 18:36 Yeah, there's a push to port it to Ubuntu 18:36 yup 18:36 I like working in the Red Hat world because, at least for clustering, it's the source for the other distros. 18:36 Get something cluster related into their and you're done, it'll flow down to the other distros. 18:36 I've pretty much moved to Ubuntu for most things mainly because of some connections to their team 18:37 Ubuntu is a great distro 18:37 I was all Debian/Ubuntu for many years 18:37 (from having been a former RH user exclusively) 18:37 That and my dependency hell I currently have on a CentOS web server :/ 18:37 I moved back only when I got into clustering in a big way, for the reasons I mentioned. 18:37 oh? 18:38 Yeah I have a webserver managed by cPanel, but included the rpmforge repo to grab a package, I guess I forgot to disable the repo, then cPanel ran a nightly yum update and just destroyed the OS 18:38 oooouch 18:39 It still runs, but has about 8 month old packages and I'm working on moving it now 18:39 but it's a pain 18:39 ya, I don't use *anything* outside the core repos when I use RHEL or CentOS in production 18:39 Right, I would still use RHEL as a cluster OS for customers purely for the support contract 18:40 though Canonical has support contracts too, so its a wash 18:40 I just see that Ubuntu has progressed extremely fast in the past couple years 18:40 two or three years ago I would never have recommended it from enterprise stuff. 18:41 brb ordering chineese for the house 18:42 k 18:42 ya, I still couldn't bring myself to use Ubuntu as a production server distro. 18:43 I know they've put a lot of work into their LTS releases though 18:43 but if I was to use anything other than EL6, it'd be Debian proper 18:45 There's not too much difference 18:45 but for desktop, hands down Ubuntu guy 18:46 crap, laundry time 18:47 haha, alright I have to go get the Chinese, be back in 20 min. 18:48 kk 19:36 ok, I'm officially too tird to work on this. heh. I'll work on it during the week. 19:36 yay jetlag 19:40 No worries, I just want to use it in the next week or so 21:11 -!- iggi_ [~iggi@c-68-61-168-20.hsd1.mi.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds] Day changed to 03 Oct 2011 01:12 -!- iggi_ [~iggi@c-68-61-168-20.hsd1.mi.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds] 12:35 -!- iggi_ [~iggi@c-68-61-168-20.hsd1.mi.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds] 14:43 Do you need a email from me for legal reasons still? 14:49 yes please 14:49 mkelly@alteeve.com is best 14:49 include as an attachment the script as well. 17:13 You just want me to send you a email telling you it's licensed uner GPL v2 or later? 17:46 -!- iggi_ [~iggi@c-68-61-168-20.hsd1.mi.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds] Day changed to 04 Oct 2011 01:18 ping
