You'd be surprised at some of the advancements that containerization has made through the years. Not to say that every new feature was met with rave reviews, of course *coughploopcough*. Second to that, OpenVZ is, more often than not, treated as an out-of-box moneymaker, when in fact each node...

I do appreciate this. I don't want stray off topic too long, or go into a GVH-inspired diatribe about wanting to be a part of this industry the day I got my first I.T. job... while that may be true, I tend to demonstrate it this in ... better ... ways. Really over there I'm not allowed to...

Good point.  I'll try and get it in before my UK people start their day.  And another thing, why do all of my simfs converted Ploop devices report 4gb less diskspace than when they were spooled with SimFS?  Is that more wasted space somewhere? Also, dumpe2fs isn't going to fire up unless I...

Oops -- I left out that mine are all dual 5650s and dual 5520s. While admittedly used by less intensive containers, I run MATE on the L5520s and haven't had any bottlenecks. Also, ignore the part about Ubuntu and inittab. That's a CentOS thing. Finally, I'd shy away from an E3  for these...

@HalfEatenPie I bet we could have some interesting and fun discussions sometime. I know we've really just favorited one another's tweets on occasion but I'm drawing a blank on where you're located.  Are you within beer-drinking distance of Oregon or Washington?  I want to say Seattle... guess I...

I've spent a lot of time making Remote Desktops function with OpenVZ containers and can get just about anything to run on it.  The screenshots were too big so I uploaded a couple examples. http://johnedel.me/2014/10/14/remote-desktop-on-openvz-container/ So far, I've run these: - Ubuntu 14.04...

The vuln was just disclosed. http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/this-poodle-bites-exploiting-ssl-30.html

Set the diskspace about 35% less as the initial test, it trimmed, then I set it back. I hadn't thought to reset to the same value. I haven't done much with Ploop this summer either.  Frankly, using it takes away from the density and scalability that containers are known for.

Precisely.

Well, wouldja look at that... Sooo.... now what?  Another thing to add to the already long list of concerns?  Like you, I have some beefy arrays where it would likely go unnoticed for some time, but still, that feeling of knowing you have wasted space on a production node?  I don't think I like...

Nothing that changed the issue with CT 1230 in dev.  I thought I saw something a while back on the *vz forum that mounting in discard wasn't an option.     I'm going to shrink container 2222 and see if I can grab any of that 18gb wasted space.  Just saw that the testing kernel was updated to...

The Register published this about 45 mins ago....?  No other mention of it so far...not sure if I should hold my breath on this one... don't know much about The Reg... http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/10/14/nasty_ssl_30_vulnerability_to_drop_tomorrow/
