missing September meeting
by Larry Platzek 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

Dick Verna just called me and his wife is sick and needs to be care for her. That means the projector will not be at meeting. A speaker had said would be at meeting but the ball was dropped so not certain if will be at meeting. I could pickup the projector but that will not help much as I will not be driving to meeting, Dick provides my transportation to meeting. I have the time just not the transportation. Dick live in Milpitas & I cupertino. Hope the meeting is good! Larry Platzek larryp(a)inow.com

BALUG 2005-06-21 6:30 PM keysigning; 7:00 PM Moshe Bar - CTO of XenSource, Open Source vereran and openMosix Project leader
by Michael Paoli 18 Jun '05

18 Jun '05

Tuesday, June 21st, 2005, starting at 6:30 P.M. PST8PDT One evening, so much BALUG excitement at one location :-) 6:30 P.M. PGP/GPG keysigning begins (details further below) 7:00 P.M. dinner and featured speaker Moshe Bar, CTO of XenSource, Open Source vereran and openMosix Project leader At 7:00 P.M., we move to our assemblage for dinner ($10.00 per person for dinner, dinner starts promptly at 7:10 P.M.), and will have as our featured speaker Moshe Bar, CTO of XenSource, Open Source vereran and openMosix Project leader. Prior to XenSource, Bar co-founded Qlusters, Inc., where he served as CTO, leading the company's technology and product strategy. Previously, Moshe was VP, ERP implementations, at Baan Europe. He is the author of three books on Linux internals and Open Source development tools. Abstract: Virtualization is a new and hot item to the world of Linux and Windows. There have been, however, virtualization technologies for over 40 years starting with the IBM emulators for mainframes and later with CP67 and VM virtualizing operating systems. Preceding that, starting at 6:30 P.M. BALUG will have a PGP/GPG keysigning event. As keysigning won't be possible during most of the later part of the BALUG meeting (as we have speaker/presentation), please try to make it as close to 6:30 P.M. as possible if you're interested in the keysigning. If you're interested in having your key signed, bring government issued photo ID (e.g. drivers license or passport, etc.) and for your key(s), key ID and key fingerprint (preferably on little slips of paper). For signing other folks keys, you'll probably want to make some notes (e.g. bring a writing implement). Placing your key(s) on the biglumber event keyring for this event: https://www.biglumber.com/x/web?ev=77348 (preferably at least several hours ahead of time if possible) can also help facilitate ease of keysigning and key exchange. Even if you're not interested the keysigning itself, as always, you're welcome to join us starting as early as 6:30 P.M. Location, directions, other details, etc., are available on the BALUG web site. references: http://www.balug.org/ http://www.xensource.com/ https://www.biglumber.com/x/web?ev=77348 http://zer0.org/pipermail/ba-keysign/2005-June/date.html http://zer0.org/mailman/listinfo/ba-keysign

BALUG May 17th presentation: LVM (Logical Volume Manager)
by Michael Paoli 01 May '05

01 May '05

For the BALUG May 17th meeting, we will feature a presentation on Logical Volume Manager (LVM) on LINUX by Michael Paoli. BALUG and meeting general information (location, time, dinner cost, etc.) can be found on the BALUG web site: http://www.balug.org/ About Logical Volume Manager (LVM) and the presentation: LVM allows for rather powerful and flexible management of hard drive space. Rather than mostly having to deal with physical disks and partitions, with LVM, one creates logical volumes, which can then be used to contain filesystems or other data. With logical volumes, one can relocate and resize logical volumes while the data they contain is in use, and in general, without regard to partition boundaries or disk sizes - as logical volumes can also span multiple disks. This can make LVM a very power tool, for example allowing one to: * grow a filesystem while it's in use (if the filesystem type supports growing it on-line) * relocate in-use data (filesystem or whatever) to different physical device or type of storage (for example, take a filesystem that is in use and move it between different types of storage (e.g. among non-RAID, RAID-5, RAID-1 or RAID-0+1 devices)) * more efficiently manage multiple filesystems on systems from those with large numbers of disk storage arrays through those with as little as a single hard drive The presentation also promises to include a live demonstration of use of LVM on LINUX, and also a bit of information about volume management software in general on LINUX and UNIX platforms. About Michael Paoli, our presenter for this event: Michael Paoli has been doing UNIX systems administration for well over a decade, has been using volume management software for about 9 years, has been using doing LINUX systems administration for almost 7 years, and has been using LVM on LINUX for about 2 years.
