Can anyone tell me what the latest level of freetype2 for SLES10 is? I think
the original that came with SLES10 is 2.1 but have there been updates for
subsequent Service Packs?

Eric, could you expand on your idea here a bit more? What's a Linux NOC?
Thanks.

This is a really insanely cool idea, and one I've never considered.
Also network and union mounting /sys may be worthwhile ...
Thanks Erik. I'm definitely going to look into this more closely.

If you really want performance, the LVM should be stripped across RAID Arrays.
And make sure you use multiple controllers.
(i.e. in the DS6800 there are two controllers, each has half the cache. If you
do LVM across both controllers, you have the potential of using all the cache,

I didn't use the actual version of QEMU but 0.9.1 under Debian 4.0r3. The

I see that you've gotten some excellent replies already.
In our shop, we originally avoided striping on the Linux side (that
is, within LVM) because we wanted to avoid a plaid or cross-hatch when
the data hit the physical media. Some of us now believe that #1

I went out to sorgeforge to find out more about this and my first concern
that the last update for v9fs was 1/2006. It does state that The v9fs
kernel code was merged into Linux's 2.6.14 development tree marking a
fairly major transition for the v9fs project .

Has anyone looked at a comparison of :
LVM striping vs SW RAID0 vs dm-multipath and PAV
I would suspect that LVM Striping and SW RAID0 will have similar
performance characteristics since they are mostly using device mapper
under the covers nowadays. LVM is more flexible, but is the code

YUM itself is unsupported. You can use YUM repositories via rug and zypper

In this case NOC stands for Network Operations Center, and calling it

amount of control you could exert over the network from this single

I said you can't exert any control over the network using this
technique. In so much as there are files in /proc that can be written
to (to change certain kernel parameters) you will be able to write to

Hello Kevin,
I recommend that you stop using EVMS and start using LVM2. The direction with
SLE11 and going forward is to use LVM2 as the logical volume manager and cLVM2
as the clustered filesystem aware volume manager. You will not need to
reinstall SLES10, LVM will be able to see the LVM
