Charter Telephone reviews, boylston?
by John Stoffel
Hi,
Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently
got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky
all the time, esp when it rains.
So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter.
I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild
about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet
another set top box to have to deal with...
So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service?
Thanks,
John

Lustre solves the problem by getting out of the way. The metadata server
simply tells the client on which of the nodes the pieces of the file
resides. Reading the documentation, when it comes to Lustre, split brain
can't happen because the moment any of the meta controllers go offline, the
whole thing stops.
Definitely with ZFS if you don't start with a plan you're going to have a
bad day.
The current design for a node is a 1U HP DL360G7 server with ~144 or 288GB
of ram.
Internal storage is handled by the smart array controller. The next one I
build I think I'm going to buy a 9200-8i and route the cables so that all
the internal and external storage is JBOD.
My current HBA card dejour for external storage is the LSI 9200-8e.
As for external JBOD enclosures, there are LOTS of choices. Generally I've
stuck with the promise J610s. It's essentially the "expansion" cabinet for
a "smart" promise array. It's beauty is in it's abject stupidity.
As for drives, currently all my stuff is running 4TB Seagate SAS drives.
For "mainline" nodes, I configure them as raid10 pools. This gets me ~29TB
of storage per pool
For "backup" nodes, I configure them as raidz2 pools. All my backup nodes
are 32 disk boxes so the pools are 116TB.
Obviously this design is a balance between cost and performance.
If I need more slots I'll use a 380 instead of 360 and I'll stick in an
Intel X540-T2 10GigE card.
It's fun to imagine if you scaled up the disks and the interconnects what a
filesystem would look like.

That would be safer for sure. I can just see a network problem taking

So I used to like ZFS and think it was "da bomb" but after using it
for several years, and esp after using the ZFS appliances from
Sun/Oracle, I'm not really enamored of the entire design any more.
I think they have some great ideas in terms of checksumming all the
files and metadata. But the layering (or lack of) disks/devices
inside zpools just drives me nuts. It's just really inflexible and

This is the key/kicker for all these systems.
I'm waiting for someone to come up with an opensource sharding system
where you use erasure codes for low-level block storage so that you
have alot of the RAID6 advantages, but even more reliability AND
speed. But it's also a hard hard problem space to get right.
Thanks for sharing!

Re: [Wlug] (no subject)

My first experiment was simply setting up a distributed volume that needs
to have each of the "bricks" as they refer to them as being reliable
members.
However you can configure it to mirror and strip across the "bricks" so
they don't have to be. In fact you can setup stripped mirrors, etc.
I've now got a number of these storage nodes as I call them. It generally
consists of a 1U box, stuffed full of ram, connected to a JBOD chassis full
of disks. I then use ZFS to create storage pools.
The problem with this is that your scale is limited to the size of a single
"node" and while you can play games with autofs it's not a cohesive
filesystem.
This solves that problem. My only complaint is that it's fuse based.
Lustre is a kernel loaded filesystem that'll do the same thing as gluster.
However, it doesn't have any of the redunancy stuff, it simply assumes your
underlying storage is reliable.

Sounds neat. Does glusterfs support RAID5/6 or does it depend on the

I've been messing around with "glusterfs" and it's pretty cool.
I build 3 machine running RHEL7.2 each with an extra 250GB disk.
I then setup a filesystem that stripes across all three machines.
So it looks like a single 750GB filesystem. Over gigE I'm seeing okay
performance ~50MB/s.
Cool stuff. Next on my list of filesystems to play with it Lustre.

Re: [Wlug] awk help
by Mike Peckar
Nathan’s solution worked, thanks to all for the replies. I do feel better this was not a solution that could fit into a tweet. Theo’s is elegant, but there are spaces in the data, and John’s would have work, but I can’t use perl in the environment I’m working in.
Mike
awk -F, '{linecount[$3]++;tmp=dup[$3];if(length(tmp)==0){dup[$3]=$0}else{dup[$3]=dup[$3]"\n"$0}} END {for (count in linecount){if(linecount[count]>1){print dup[count]}}}'
Hopefully this is not a homework problem.
