Noon: I can start updating again. Someday I'll write about why I had to stop for so long.
- Dirty Girl & I will be moving into a new house this week. Two move events, Friday-Sun, and then Monday the movers come to get the big/heavy stuff
*********
8AM - Must finish SuperSearch systems Edison & Tesla by Friday 8/28.
9AM - WAS Upgrade meating with Peter & the rest of the upgrade team. They need both NWIE VM images set up by Friday also.
Since 10am this morning I've been working on ITP project, ME2:
- ITP ME2 servers are moved to Columbus
- Cuervo and I are re-ip'ing them and trying to get them to start up normally in the new network space. Stuffer was being a total pain in the arse for a while but I think I have him on-board with the action items.
- must edit /etc/ldap.conf & /etc/openldap.conf to add line:
nns_initgroups_ignoreusers root,ldap,named,avahi,haldaemon,dbus,satellite
- edit /etc/modules.conf & remove reference to pcnet32
- edit /etc/fstab and remove 3 lines added by vmware
- After demter & hestia are done, the rest of the boxes should come up without issue
- Forgot to change /etc/resolv.conf. Hestia can't resolve anyone so she's not letting us in. but that shouldn't happen with the nss line. hmm.
- chkconfig off rhnsd & osad?
4:40PM - every one of these servers are fucked. none of them can get on the network to talk with their LDAP host, so none of them will let anyone log in. What a fucking nightmare. I have to break into every one of these machines and fix the configurations.
All of them get host name changes
IP addresses changed
Resolvers/Search
LDAP hosts
VMWare Tools
Loghosts
NTP host
Mail Relays
Backup Clients
This has to happen or it won't come online. If it won't come online, you can't log in. :)
9:10PM
- Mr. T said that the firewall rules were just finished and the network is shut off on these servers until the IPs are changed etc. No wonder we couldn't even ping gateway. It would have been nice to be informed of that bit of trivia.
- fuckers -
- We're going to call it a day and sleep a bit if we can.
- AM - must talk to Cole and get my access level bumped up so I can initiate tool installs without hand holding.
- Have to get nets turned on and test accesses.
- Get Cuervo the info that he needs to carry this on without me, or with Stuffer.
- Dirty Girl & I are going to meet Nikita to give her the $$ and get the $K.
- I'll meet Grandpa Simpson and trade my Mercedes for his Suburban for the weekend. Dirty Girl takes Scooby to work, I bring Suburban back here and finish Oracle server build for WAS Project, and get UID's created on Edison & Tesla for Country Boy, Becky, and Kipper.

Calling it a night, logging out of work. Going to start tearing down the other computers and prepping them for the move.
