Where's Chris?
by Chris Walker 18 Feb '11

18 Feb '11

I will be honoring Corby's big day in the best way I know how, which is in bed.. I've got this flu-ish thing that started dragging me down yesterday and has now got me LICKED.. If I feel alive-ish this afternoon I may continue celebrating "the greatest day ever" by implementing some of the cool (pun intended) temp stuff that will be so awesome my fingers refuse to type it.. Or I could just be exhausted, and it's not that cool.. Please put me down for a sick day today P.S. Rumor has it, people are scattering treats across the building. Don't buy into it, it's some sort of mouse-in-a-maze social experiment. Just leave the treats in their air-tight containers until Monday or you'll just be a lemming! Remember: no treats til Monday!

Treats - BYOC
by Schmitz Corby 18 Feb '11

18 Feb '11

All: I have finally reached my mid-30s. In celebration, of this, the anniversary of my birth (quite possibly the greatest day ever), I have brought treats of various nature. None are healthy, in fact you would be better off eating the containers. There are two drop locations: MCS Helpdesk on the 2nd floor and 4.A.20 (Deborah's cubicle) on the 4th floor. If you don't like the selection at one location, the other may be more to your liking, if you don't like the selection at either location, see me and I will give you directions to where the third location is that you may go to ;) Enjoy, and Bring Your Own Coffee (BYOC) -corby

Please put me down for a sick day. I woke up at 3am w/ sore throat and head conjestion. Sneezing and headache added themselves to the list at 6am. Looks like Mr. Cold is stopping for a visit. I'm taking Zicam and vitamin C and going to get some rest to get him to leave early. I'll be in to grab my laptop later(of course, I left it yesterday). Beth

MCS-RTR CPU Issue Resolved
by Schmitz Corby 16 Feb '11

16 Feb '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 CPU has returned to normal on the MCS-RTR. Still trying to find the root cause, but I suspect it was user traffic that left with the user at the end of the day. It was traffic showing up on graphs from the desktop side through to server net. This is what I know for sure right now. Tomorrow is another day! - -corby -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.16 (Darwin) iD8DBQFNXGGWQhpwH3ALVFERAgC2AJsFv7w7MZoueTZuSW338nU1oFafhgCgi25Y TEa8DaRpyM6xR1gtDB5rozI= =Dzee -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Smokeping
by Schmitz Corby 16 Feb '11

16 Feb '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I repurposed our smokeping install that we use for network latency and jitter detection into an NFS data gathering machine. Dan dumped the hosts that have NFS mounts to STO01 and I configured watcher to hit them with an fping a couple times a minute to measure their response times, packet loss etc. You can see the results here: https://watcher.mcs.anl.gov/mcs/cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi?target=NFS I am going to let it baseline overnight so we see how they look while people are away, and then we can look at how they behave when people return tomorrow. - -corby -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.16 (Darwin) iD8DBQFNXFkkQhpwH3ALVFERAll5AKDAqd3d/SW0pRqZIZ7so6KW5BpL+ACfQAMc 9o384xiNJeVEKnPNyMKk8bs= =3tHJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
