Next Meeting Feb. 11th 2016: Topic: ELK Location: Atwater-Kent Room 232

by Tim Keller

Hey Gang, Here's the details for our next meeting! Please NOTE THE LOCATION CHANGE! Date & Time: Feb. 11th 2016 @ 7pm Location: Atwater-Kent Room 232 Topic: ELK Presenter: Tim Keller ELK is an acronym that stands for "Elastisearch Logstash Kibana". It's platform that lets you gather data, search it and then create dashboards to display it. A good example might be having a single place that you can graph out the trends of disk usage across all the machines in your data center. I'm going to talk about setting up an elastic node, deploying logstasher and creating dashboards using kibana (and possibly grafana) Refreshments and snacks will be supplied and we'll have pizza at Tech afterwards to continue the conversation. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Sadly, I will not. The location is a bit harder for me than the Worcester one was.

WLUG Meeting TONIGHT! Feb. 16th 2017 Rm 331 (Hagglund) iscsi / gfs2 / filesystems / etc!

by Tim Keller

Hey Gang, Our rescheduled meeting is tonight! Feb 16th @ 7pm. The location is changed a bit, we're going to be in the Hagglund Rm (rm 301) in the student center. Go to the top of the stairs and go to the right instead of left. I'm going to be speaking about storage protocols, ending up on iscsi. I'm then going to talk about gfs2 in particular and then show gfs2 working across two nodes. We're also going to talk in general about filesystems, LVM, partitioning, etc. I expect that latter topic is going to be come a general group topic. There will be snacks and refreshments (coke only) and afterwards we'll head down to Tech Pizza! Later, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
