@verius The easiest way to my mind is something like TELOPT negotiation. But I'd be open to other ideas. -

@verius Not very since we already have mechanisms for getting remote notices, which we could leverage, but we'd have to create a means to get specific notices outside of a hubsub. This is probably doable if we use the API though, but then we also run into the same compatability problems. That said, it's probably better postActiv deal with these sorts of things tha… -

@verius That's more or less what I was getting at doing. Have a core set of stuff we NEED to work for basic functionality, then have anything else be extra and based upon what we end up needing for extended features. -

@verius That seems likely, but it seems to react poorly to me trying to change settings for it, or did when I was fiddling when I first set it up anyways. -

@verius Okay it should be back up in a moment. Takes like 5s to resize it and then just usual linux restart times. -

@verius Are you using the gitlab now? Thinking of pulling it down very momentarialy to change those settings around wrt the VM if not. -

@verius If we can easily load in just the libraries for the functions we need, this would greatly reduce resource footprints in all but install size (and mustard is a small install as is). -

@verius Memory definitely seems the thing versus processor speed. I might scale down proc a bit and feed it more RAM. IO ops also are, somewhat. It's on a SSD so there's not many gains to be had there though. -

@verius You're more familiar with the codebase than I am so rather than make suggestions that seem silly, I'll ask: How easy or difficult would it be to make the codebase load in feature modules dynamically? Because if this is relatively easy, what we could add as part of the API discovery methods, is a feature-detection methodology that can determine what software … -

@verius Yeah it seems to. I gave the VM a 2GB dedicated allocation that can balloon to 3GB and it still hits OOM errors occasionally. -

Also, promotion of this also helps since the first phase of testing of this would be putting it under some decent use of different users from different environments and geographic locations and seeing how well it holds up. -

@mcnalu @kevie I try to be a dutiful sysop, as much as my health allows! :) -

The immediate goal of that was already fulfilled: I wanted to run my own DNS for this server and not have to rely on external DNS. I still use the DC DNS servers as secondaries, but the primary is that server, so the DNS1 is in active use.
My second goal is to make it work in a DNS cluster with strong caching so that recursive queries are minimized, and to also cluster the firewalls on networked nodes. -

So for those wondering what my idea I mentioned going way overboard with was last night/morning, it was/is this: http://status.hackerposse.com/url/13280 Still surprised I got that domain. Basically I wrote some simple scripts to make a centos 6 box into an instant OpenNIC/New Nations/ICANN all-in-one public DNS box. I don't think the script is ready for prime-tim… -

@verius Yep it seems to be working fine albeit a bit slowly at times. Probably going to feed it some more RAM - Ruby is a huge memory hog. Suspect it's probably leaking. -

@verius (For instance I can't just pull a list thats "here's all the router endpoints related to the API" - you have to hunt down every single router addition line that contains the addition of an API endpoint.) -

@verius This is kind of already doable with creating new endpoints on the router, I just want to add some stuff to make the abstraction of this easier and the organization more obvious. Right now the router is for everything and has no namespacing at all so trying to visualize it is a nightmare. -

@verius What I want to do regarding APIs in postActiv, is have them be modular so we can pull them in and out easily. If we do this, we could easily have an endpoint just for custard, that's tailor made to feed it data in the way we desire of it. -

@verius Well the VM migration process is MOSTLY automatic.
What isn't automatic is the networking apparently, because ESXi doesn't think to clone the MAC etc of the old adapter, so of course linux networking was choking on it being a different network card because we decided udev was better even though it's forebear automatically handled these things. -

"The Rise of College E-Sports" You never ever get to complain about being oppressed or underprivileged again if your kid is making money playing video games at a professional level. The amount of money it takes to get a high end computer system on a solid and reliable connection which is also fast is a huge economic impediment. In fact, I wouldn't have the rig I …
