Just a reminder that this is on in just over a week and a day.
I'd really like to get a good crowd this month - as we actually have a
reasonable program! ;)
Please let me know if you are coming so I can get Pizza and Drinks
organised. :)
Cheers,
Nathan.

Hi folks!
We are on for August!
Important note first up: With thanks to the kind folks @ NTT, we are
still meeting in the NTT office in the World Trade Centre (Address Below)
So - for this month... Richard Spindler is going to talk about some
of the build automation work he has been doing across multiple
platforms and OS's. He and I had a quick chat about it, and it was
pretty damn interesting. Also interested to hear how he solved some of
the issues he was coming across.
I'm going rock your world with whatever is publicly available about
Sonoma - the upcoming low cost SPARC platform. You want M7 type
goodness without the M7 type pricetag?
I'm also looking to chat a little about a performance issue I have
been chasing relating to iSCSI - there will be some dtrace and some
general perf discussion (yes... I'm using iSCSI... :\) and zvols. I'm
part way through some dTrace for looking at zvol activities, though
it's taking more time than I remember. ;)
Finally - I'm going to see if Boyd or perhaps Gavin might add
something... (Gavin?? VM2? ;) Oh - and If you would like to present
something - let me know. There is still space on the bill.
So - come along, talk, listen, eat pizza and drink beer (and maybe
even eat Pal.). I dare you.
(Yes Gavin - I'm *still* looking (As one other observer noted: Now
using my 'Gorgon Stare Mk VII'(tm) *http://tinyurl.com/jo4sxtb *) at
you and the vm2 subsystem one of these days!! heh heh.) :).
Hope to see you all there, and if you would like to present on
anything in S11.3 that you have already played with, let me know, and
I'll make space for you in the program!
For reference - On the list of what folks wanted to see - we
collectively decided we'd like to talk about the following in the
coming months:
DTrace stuff (including a re-intro/primer as we have a bunch of new
folks in the group), Solaris 11 (going deep into the new stuff), (eg:
ipadm, dladm, tuned versus vanilla, etc), OEL/OL (Oracle Linux)...
Anyone who wants to volunteer would be most welcome. :)
See below for topics/speakers.
If you want to get someone else subscribed to this list - send them here:
http://mexico.purplecow.org/m/listinfo/msosug
Please respond in the positive OR negative ASAP so Pizza and Drinks
can be planned.
Where?
The NTT office,
Level 7, Tower 4, World Trade Centre
18-22 Siddeley Street, Melbourne.
Walk in the front of the building, and head to the
lifts to the left past the security desk, go to level 7.
There is parking available close by, though I can't
speak to the price. I believe it's cheap
off-peak parking though...
When?
***Wednesday*** August the 17th at 18:00 for general
discussion and merriment.
Speakers start at 18:30 sharp, with Pizza arriving somewhere around
20:00ish.
I'm looking for Topics/Speakers for *next* month as well.
Soft drink, coffee/tea and Pizza will be available. (YES - FOOD.)
**If you plan to attend, please reply NOW to
[email protected] so that we
can plan for seating / pizza / drinks!**
To anyone who meets with or talks to folks interested in Solaris: Please
let everyone know about the meeting, the time and the date. We would
love to continue to continue to grow the group.
A note on access: The Lifts in the building and entrance to Level 5
automatically lock early in the evening, so access will be provided by
Oracle folks on-site. A sign will also be placed close to the ground
floor lifts with a contact number, should you arrive after the start of
the meeting.
If you are interested in Solaris, doing interesting things with, or on
Solaris, we want YOU!
Cheers!
