Hi folks,
OK - It's on like Donkey Kong!
This month, Andrew Foote will be talking all about Solaris 11 in the
real world, including support, SRU's, dealing with packages and
alternate repos, getting support contracts and all the other stuff folks
that want to use Solaris will need to know.
Boyd and I will be doing some DTracing (though I suspect Boyd will do
most of it, given just how rusty I'm getting!)
I'm also going to have a quick chat about Solaris 11.1 and what's new
(of consequence.).
Again - 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
Cluster 4.0, 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), Pillar storage,
OEL/OL (Oracle Linux)... Anyone who wants to volunteer would be most
welcome. :)
See below for topics/speakers.
Please respond in the positive OR negative ASAP so Pizza and Drinks can
be planned.
Where?
Level 5, 417 St Kilda Road, Melbourne, VIC 3004.
*** NOTE THAT THIS ADDRESS IS THE ORACLE BUILDING ***
When?
Wednesday November the 21st at 18:00 for general
discussion and merriment.
Speakers start at 18:30 sharp, with Pizza arriving somewhere around
20:00ish.
Speakers / Topics will mostly be (Expect this to be revised with more
stuff as more people volunteer):
- Andrew Foote - Solaris 11 from the support perspective
- Boyd with peanut gallery comments from Nathan on Dtrace.
- Nathan - Solaris 11.1: whats new that really matters?
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
nathan.kroen...@optusnet.com.au 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!
