USB thermometer - perl script - problem
Hopefully someone here could help. I need to debug, but I don't know
much about perl.
I bought a cheap USB thermometer:

We run all used disks through a shredder before surplusing any systems,
and we are just a manufacturing company dealing with internal corporate
IT stuff. the shredder is a truck from a 'data destruction'

CentOS 6.9, shredding a RAID
I've got an old RAID that I attached to a box. LSI card, and the RAID has
12 drives, for a total RAID size of 9.1TB, I think. I started shred
/dev/sda the Friday before last... and it's still running. Is this
reasonable for it to be taking this long...?

Cannot boot CentOS 7 VM after updating Host CentOS 7 Kernel

Nothing obvious. I checked /var/log/messages, /var/log/libvirt/qemu,
/var/log/libvirt/lxc & /var/log/qemu-ga. The /var/log/libvirt/lxc &
/var/log/qemu-ga were empty. The /var/log/libvirt/qemu directory had a
log file of interest Outgoing-CentOS-7-VM.log but nothing in it that
tells me anything obvious.

I''ve installed xen 3.0.3 from packages (xen-linux-system) on a debian

way (netdev=eth0, bridge=xenbr0, etc...) which is ok for me.
the problem I have:
I cannot ping any outer machine from dom0 (nor any outer machine can
ping me). It gives me a "Destination Host Unreachable" message that

file shred
Hi,
if we were to use shred to delete a file on a gluster volume, will the
correct blocks be overwritten on the bricks?
(still using Gluster 3.6.3 as have been too cautious to upgrade a
mission critical live system).
Cheers,
Kingsley.

Anyone have any clues about how to sanitize a dead SSD? We haven't had it
yet, but we're sure it's coming. Esp. since I'm a federal contractor, a
dead disk gets deGaussed, but what the hell do you do with a SSD?
