Today is someone's birthday and I can't remember who it is.� Happy Birthday whomever you are.
- More problems with LDAP in portal dev, but they should be fixed at this point.� The problem only appears on RHEL3/u9 boxes that use Winbind for SAMBA mounts _and_ authentication for users against LDAP/AD.� Turned out to be userID numbers.� Hoops wrote it up and dropped it onto the wally share.
- Back and forth on the date format issue again.� Explained to everyone my understanding of the LC_TIME flag in locale.
locale -c LC_TIME shows how the LC_TIME settings were compiled using localedef for the specific locale. (In my case en_US)�
If you set a variable LC_TIME in /etc/profile, you set it to something like LC_TIME='dutch' or LC_TIME='en_US', or LC_TIME='en_UK',
then whatever program is calling the LC_TIME variable to find out how to format something, it goes out to /usr/lib/locale/en_US/LC_TIME and reads the formatting orders.� But that affects the entire system.
12:00 - Talked with a couple of friends and organized a jailbreak for Saturday.� We're going to go north of Flagstaff and hike a few miles around some extinct volcanos.
- Mon-Chi-Chi still has 'turnstone' on a list someplace even though it was decomm months ago.� Informed him as such.
- back and forth with Pooh over Delphi phys and Oracle.� Looks like my simplest solution is to rebuild the machine and then P-to-V it.
000 - Maintenance window tonight
-- Some MOTHERFUCKER shut down VDI while I was in the middle of working on giant,titan,pine.� Editing sd.conf and lpfc.conf to set up the new dmx3.� I almost fucking came _unglued_.� Called and talked with DC, he says there was a change ticket open and that's the proper notification.� Fine.� My solution?� I'M NOT FUCKING USING VDI ANYMORE.� If they can't send a shutdown warning prior to ripping the systems down, I'm done with it.
-- The same assclowns who took down VDI took down Dilbert too.� you BASTARDS.
-- Issues with the disk grow on the cluster.� More to the point, issues with the cluster.� All notes marked private.� After portal came back up, Pooh tells me the DB isn't open and I have to recycle it.� So I hagrp -offline the group and then bring it online again, everything worked fine.� Didn't even interrupt WAS, but probably because nobody was using it at the time.� Biker Babe was happy.
- DMX cutover was a fucking nightmare.� Mac and Margie worked on it while Chops kept interrupting and making everyone nuts.� I just tried to listen and learn.�
- Talked with Cartman and finally got him to admit that Grandpa Simpson is fucking incompetent.
- Talked with Slick ~midnight.� He'd gotten a few calls from The Thug.� Incredible.
