Software RAID1: how to change disks?
  • I've recently done this on one of my machines, these were the steps I as far as i remember:

    • backup!
    • add the new disks to the machine
    • partition them like the smaller disks
    • add the new disks to the array(s) (as members, not just spares)
    • take care of bootloader things while the raid is syncing
    • your raid should have 4 devices in sync now
    • fail and remove the smaller disks from the raid one by one
    • resize the partitions on the bigger disks to maximum
    • grow the MD raid to the new size

    If you use luks and/or lvm some additional steps will be needed to grow them as well.

    If your system can hotplug disks there's a chance to pull this off with little to no downtime. :)

  • Best solution for a distributed filesystem?
  • I can't really tell you what to use, but from my personal experience - stay away from glusterfs and drbd. both have caused me serious trouble when trying to run them in a production setup. ceph seems to be pretty solid, though.

  • Distros bad
  • This needs a coffee siphon as well, might even fit gentoo better than the espresso maker. harder to set up, takes longer but it's different from what everyone else is using ;) great coffee, too

    Best practice for docker compose passwords?
  • regarding docker secrets: what @[email protected] said, examples for doing this are here: https://docs.docker.com/compose/use-secrets/

    regarding passwords: maybe you don't "have to", but if i'd argue it's important to build a habit of never using weak passwords anywhere. using strong passwords shouldn't be/feel like an extra step but part of the normal workflow.

    Why does Nvidia hate linux?
  • nvidia has always been hostile to open source, as far back as i can remember.

    back when nvidia bought 3dfx they took down the source code for the open 3dfx drivers within days, if not on the same day. i remember because i had just gotten myself a sweet voodoo 5 some weeks before that, and the great linux support was the reason i chose it... of course the driver code survived elsewhere, but it told me all i needed to know about that company.

    also: linus' rant wasn't just a fun stunt, it was necessary to get nvidia to properly cooperate with the open source community if they want to keep making money running linux on their hardware.
