In the ZFS Best Practises Guide here: http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Best_Practices_Guide It says: ``Currently, pool performance can degrade when a pool is very full and file systems are updated frequently, such as on a busy mail server. Under these circumstances, keep pool space under...

Hello, Just a quick question on best practise. I am converting quite a bit of legacy C code into R packages and have the following situation: (1) Legacy object with a double* array in, all over code so don't want to change any more than I have to. (2) Do something like: SEXP arrayToPassToR; PROTECT( arrayToPassToR = allocVector( REALSXP, n ) ); for(i=0; i < n; i++) {

Hello Folks We have Windows, Mac, and Linux labs all accessing the same shares: - NFS: Linux - CIFS: Mac and Windows We are finding that Mac client access to the ‘homes’ section is causing load problems on the file server due to access errors. I’ve read that ‘vfs_fruit’ could solve this problem. What is the best practice in the smb.conf configurations for the ‘homes’ section so that all

Hi, I want some of my models to inherit from a custom ActiveRecord::Base class. Where is the best place to put this custom subclass? Actually, I just wanted to translate the default validate message so maybe there was a better thing to do than subclassing ActiveRecord::Base. Thanks Oscar --------------------------------- How low will we go? Check out Yahoo! Messenger?s low PC-to-Phone

In a chroot Bind installation, named.conf is located in /var/named/chroot/etc/. In that file, references to files for includes and other zones can be made as "filename" without a path. What is the expected location when no path is used, simply up one dir under chroot/? While moving a DNS from one machine to another, I noticed all ref's are "/etc/filename" and they are in

As I mentioned in another thread I set up these 2 namespaces for a couple of users: namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / type = private } namespace { location = maildir:/home/vmail/oeffentlich:INDEXPVT=/home/vmail/public/index/%d/%u/index prefix = Oeffentlich/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = public } It is planned that they all will use

Hi Just trying to spec a Rails model that defaults a valid_until date to this time tomorrow. I''ve done something similar involving Dates, and you can stub the :today method to return something fixed. But when I tried this with Time, I found that RSpec calls Time.now four times per spec. So there''s no way to spec code like 1.days.from_now . The best I can come up

Hi folks I have here a CentOS box where i need to setup cronjob (with session to remote Oracle instance). On the remote DB i have no access, expect limited user. How to avoid putting passwords in shell scripts? The solution doesn't need to be perfect, only better than plain text passwords in scripts. Mostly remote host only support password authentication (no certificates and so on).

Hi All, I'm about to setup an Asterisk install to take over an old legacy PBX system. At present, the legacy system has modules in it which provides 4 * data ISDN links to the video conferencing unit (Tandberg 3000 MXP) on site, these use the ISDN30 (uk) that the normal voice calls go over. Is it possible to emulate this in asterisk? I've seen zapras but I'm not sure if that's

Dear All, I have a question regarding best practise in setting up a XML parser within R. Because I have files with more than 100 MB and I'm only interested in some values I think a SAX-like parser using xmlEventParse() will be the best solution. Unfortunately the values I'm looking for, to construct some higher "mass spectrum", are distributed over different lines: as

Hi all. I have the following scenario. http://myapp/site1 is using <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''myapp_standard'' %> to define the stylesheet for layout, I have myapp_standard.css in /public/stylesheets and it works fine. However, in the stylesheet I define a image to use for my site background. eg: html, body{ background-image: url(mysite_background.jpg); padding-top:

hello! Can someone point me to some best practices in building high-available scalable mail system or! share your own success stories. I've read article in LJ "Building a Scalable High-Availability E-Mail System with Active Directory and More" but it seemed to be outdated and there's a single point of failure (Master node). What I want to achieve: high-available,

I am putting a rails stack on a debian linux box. Ezra did a great job with his tutorial <http://brainspl.at/rails_stack.html> What I am in doubt is what is recommended / common practise to install stuff which is not availble yet with apt-get (eg. ruby 1.8.4, postgresql 8.1, lighttpd). the options I played with (=> and the conclusion): compiling from source (get source straight from

Hi, I''m a new puppet user (thanks !) and I''m just looking at moving my homegrown manifest structure into something resembling the best practise guide at : http://www.reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/PuppetBestPractice. It seems as if the structure here doesn''t map to the default puppet layout (and thus doesn''t work with the standard puppet config

Hi, im looking to build a page similar to a shopping cart page. When you change the ''price'' or ''quantity'' fields, the total is calculated and displayed. There are other fields in the form which have no relation to this action. So i guess observe_form is not required. Can someone tell me what the best practise is for this?
