Linux Users' Group of Davis, Nov. 21: "Snapper - filesystem snapshot tool"
by nbs 17 Nov '16

17 Nov '16

The Linux Users' Group of Davis (LUGOD) will be holding the following meeting: Monday November 21, 2016 7:00pm - 9:00pm Presentation: "Snapper" Presented by: Will Marshall Description: Snapper (http://www.snapper.io/) is a tool for Linux filesystem snapshot management. Apart from the obvious creation and deletion of snapshots, it can compare snapshots and revert differences between snapshots. In simple terms, this allows root and non-root users to view older versions of files and revert changes. The demo will be focused on the command-line, though the graphical tool "snapper-gui" will also be covered. While Snapper prefers "btrfs" filesystems, it also works on "ext4", which will also be demonstrated. Use of "cron" to time regular snapshots (a la Apple's "Time Machine") will be discussed, as will use of Snapper to boot from, and revert to, a previous snapshot. This meeting will be held at: Explorit Nature Center 3141 Fifth Street Davis, CA 95618 For more details on this meeting, visit: http://www.lugod.org/meeting/upcoming/ For maps, directions, public transportation schedules, etc., visit: http://www.lugod.org/meeting/explorit/ ------------ About LUGOD: ------------ The Linux Users' Group of Davis is a 501(c)7 non-profit organization dedicated to the Linux computer operating system and other Open Source and Free Software.

Permanent job in Tokyo, Japan
by James Tobin 17 Nov '16

Hello, I’m working with an employer that is looking to hire someone to fulfil a permanent DevOps-type position at their office in Tokyo. Japanese language is not required; only English. Consequently I had hoped that some members of this LUG may like to discuss further; off-list. I can be reached using "JamesBTobin (at) Gmail (dot) Com". Kind regards, James
