多得《基地》系列，上一年很多經典科幻作品也重出江湖，我本身不是好讀小說的人，但也因此而看了不少。其中 Arthur C. Clarke 的「太空漫遊」系列更是一次過四本再出：《2001》、《2010》、《2061》和《3001》
What I currently know about Fibrechannel versus iSCSI versus AoE
We're planning a significant capacity increase for our local SANstorage pool, which means that we've been trying to figure out whichSAN technology we want to go with. We don't have high performance IOneeds, so we're going for bulk storage: large SATA disks in RAID 5 insome sort of SAN RAID controller. We plan to use Solaris 10 on x86for our NFS servers that will use the SAN, with DiskSuite forfailover. DiskSuite has to own full disks

Why we do NFS fileserving with a SAN
Our storage infrastructure here has a number of NFS servers sittingin front of a pool of SAN RAID storage boxes using commodity SATAdisks. This is a somewhat unusual setup for a comparatively smallenvironment like ours; a far more common setup is to have the disksdirectly attached to the fileservers.
We have a SAN setup for a simple reason: failover between the NFSserver machines . We consider the server machines to be the things mostlikely to suffer failures, either hardware or software, or just to needdowntime. With

Programming fun
Programming fun is spending a couple of hours writing, revising, andtuning a DWiki feature that I'm not sure I'm actually going to like wellenough to keep.
I'm serious, not being sarcastic; I like programming, but not all ideasfor improving a program pan out. An idea that seems great in my mind canbe less attractive once I've made it concrete and explored all of thebits that I could gloss over when it was just thought-stuff. So I can
QOTD: There are three types of authentication
There are three types of authentication :
They are:
- Something you've lost,
- Something you've forgotten, and
- Something you used to be.

I hate hardware (Dell 2950 edition)
The Dell 2950 is a decent 2U server that has recently started beingpopular around here; like most recent servers, it has dispensed withPS/2 connectors and only has USB for the keyboard and mouse. It has fourUSB connectors, two on the front and two on the back.
If you plug your keyboard into the back USB connectors, the Ubuntu6.06.1 x86_64 server kernel hangs with ' BUG: soft lockup detectedon CPU#0!
你找錯人了
個多月沒有在Hei Hei出現過，
真的。
因為這兩月差不多逢四五六，
