i am banned for this chan again?
greycat 2017-01-31 07:51:37
Obviously you are not. Because you keep speaking.
unborn 2017-01-31 07:52:32
greycat: ah - you mine terminal fella - thanks for your reply

So, I've inherited a server that is till running squeeze.
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:00:59
If I go the standard upgrade path, should I upgrade to wheezy, then to jessie, or can I skip wheezy and go straight to jessie?
jelly 2017-01-31 08:01:13
Dyrcona: no skipping allowed or supported
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:01:27
jelly: thanks. that is what I thought.
jelly 2017-01-31 08:01:57
there's code in place that only does its special release-upgrade thing going from N to N+1, and gets removed before N+2
jelly 2017-01-31 08:02:45
so you get to read both wheezy release notes and then jessie release notes
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:02:57
Yeap. That's what I thought.
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:04:41
There are two third-party repositories included: hwraid.le-vert.net and postgresql.org. Should I disable those source before beginning?
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:04:58
It has been a while since I last upgraded a debian system.
jelly 2017-01-31 08:05:37
Dyrcona: disabling weird repos is commented on in release notes as well, I think :-)
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:05:50
OK, then. :)
jelly 2017-01-31 08:06:16
postgresql.org's stuff is usually decent so you're probably going to want to replace it with appropriate wheezy then jessie repos afterwards
jelly 2017-01-31 08:06:25
no clue what that first thing is
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:06:48
It's for hardware RAID drivers. They have wheezy and jessie packages.
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:07:09
This is the first time I've come across it, though.
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:10:00
jelly: Thanks.
jelly 2017-01-31 08:10:05
which hw raid controllers?
jelly 2017-01-31 08:10:58
hp has their own repo for proliants with tools for their smartarray series
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:12:03
did you gain anything out of that?
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:12:13
read speed or eh?
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:12:22
total heat dissipated by the usb chip
missmbob 2017-01-31 08:12:25
really? *shrug* never needed special drivers for dell
velix 2017-01-31 08:12:37
arha_: nah, config and log data for my home automation was on there.
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:12:49
ah neato
jelly 2017-01-31 08:13:01
missmbob: it's about config, mgt and monitoring tools more than making it work
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:13:05
what do you use for home automation? diy/serial stuff? or anything more standardized? mqtt or the like?
missmbob 2017-01-31 08:13:16
jelly: i see
jelly 2017-01-31 08:14:10
sometimes you want to add a disk to an array or reshape or change cache r/w ratio or patch up disk firmware
velix 2017-01-31 08:14:30
arha_: Right now: openHAB ... but I'm playing around with others
velix 2017-01-31 08:14:50
arha_: FHEM is ery good (written in Perl)
jelly 2017-01-31 08:15:09
open sauce tools usually don't go much further than "battery is ok or not" and "disks are ok or not"
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:16:50
velix: neat. i read on openhab, i'm mostly a fan of mqtt stuff - and a bit of esp8266
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:16:59
what do you have around the house?
velix 2017-01-31 08:17:50
arha_: 433 switches mainly.
velix 2017-01-31 08:17:57
arha_: I don't try esp8266 ;)
velix 2017-01-31 08:18:16
arha_: you've got to limit it to intranet ;)
velix 2017-01-31 08:18:41
arha_: ARGH!! I don't TRUST esp8266 ;)
velix 2017-01-31 08:18:51
I've tried of course.
velix 2017-01-31 08:19:06
arha_: brb, Pizza is ready.
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:20:35
velix: ha, enjoy.
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:21:15
arha_: my idea of domotics always includes that 'last bit' being a multi-drop bus, something like RS485 or the like, centrally controller over whatever protocol. and or maybe a few 433/866 links, or something in the infrared
arha_ 2017-01-31 08:21:52
but yeah, for all the fun 8266 is - i see why it would be inecure
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:21:55
jelly: Looks like LSI and the things installed from that repo are tools to read the status, etc. Not drivers, apparently.
Dyrcona 2017-01-31 08:22:29
And, I've two versions of postgresql installed. This is gonna be fun!
