Hi all, I'm happy to announce the 15th Irish OpenSolaris User Group meeting:
Topic Daily DTrace Date Thursday October 25th Time 7:00pm onwards Location DIT, Lower Kevin Street, Room KE 3-008 This month, John Rice and Sean McGrath are going to give a demo to show how DTrace can improve your daily life. I'm going to give a small presentation at the beginning to introduce the basic concepts of DTrace before they start to show the magic of DTrace. DTrace is a dynamic tracing tool that allows you to instrument your whole operating environment and understand when and where is something happening within your software stack without modifying it and without any downtime. It is originally developed for Solaris 10, however it's been currently ported for other systems like FreeBSD and Mac OS X. Most people find difficult to understand what can DTrace do for them, what kind of problems they can solve with it and how to use it to solve them. The demos are targeted to the broader audience, they're going to show different DTrace strategies to solve familiar problems for any kind of user: system administration, networking and software development in both low and high level languages (C, perl, JavaScript). This should be a really interesting talk, and I'd definitely encourage you to come along ? please feel free to pass this message around and spread the word. As always, we'll also try to give a quick run down of OpenSolaris news over the past month, and will be recording the talk and adding it to our podcast feed as well as posting the slides here, in case you can't make it to the meeting. Once again, many thanks to the nice folks at DIT for offering to host our meeting!
