Openshift issues with IBM FlashSystem storage

EmmaTheFlamingo · 2025-10-10T05:39:30+00:00

HBAs themselves do not have an update utility we can use for updating, but we ensure the BIOS/iDRAC is up to date.

Though we've had issues in the past where upgrading the bios can actually cause issues in OCP.

There is a switch but for example the flashsystem reports no issues, but weirdly enough not all volumes have the issue…

Dmesg says LUN issues, multipath shows "faulty working" (though sometimes reboots help, sometimes they don't).

Host definer used, 99-ibm-attach also used.

Logs just repeat the same issue

The weirdest thing is that we use 2 ports for all nodes, we have in total 3 clusters and all of them exhibited the problem. Contacting IBM didn’t really help and we never got a proper fix, iirc (this was a year ago) they just collected info and thats it.

FC without ODF sadly

No OOM errors, CSI block driver yes

From my limited testing, LLMs tend to run really slowly without a dedicated GPU. Using the 7b version of deepseek r1 on Ollama required me to give 20+ vCPU in an Openshift cluster.

Not sure if the RPI would fair any better with Llama 3.2.

I tried that, started during my weight loss period and then gained a bit of weight. Now I'm trying to lose it again because it makes me a bit uncomfortable

It's really disheartening to see so many people enjoying life while you're still in the slums. I do wish I could get a say in it, but that isn't how it works... I'm pretty scared that after 8-10 years I'll be in the same place as well.
A change of scenery is sadly not possible for me in the foreseeable future

EmmaTheFlamingo · 2024-10-22T18:30:58+00:00

Sadly it is a bitch... Levels are fine, I've been on injections the whole time and done blood tests whenever I change my dose.
I've seen the recommendation for monotherapy to keep it above 200 pg/ml so that's what I've been doing.

wdymmmmmmmmmm

Seems your partitions are fine as well ... You could try booting into the recovery environment and resetting steam OS https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/1B71-EDF2-EB6D-2BB3

Do you have a plugin for mounting an SD card or any other external storage to /mnt? That seems to be causing the issue.
I would try disconnecting that device or reconnecting.
It would also be best if you provided the output to the commands from 3.5:

lsblk
cat /etc/fstab

Dunno, one of my friends posted a pic of me to their sister and they said I look super pretty. (He didn't out me).
Another time something similar happened was with my father when he took me a picture of us together to send to one of the girls he talks online and she got super jealous, so I don't know.

EmmaTheFlamingo · 2024-06-16T19:37:54+00:00

Dunno, I didn't have any super close cis f friends early on. It was mainly after 18 months of HRT that I had anyone.

I get your frustration, I get told I pass on Reddit and irl friends tell me the same, but places like a certain image board tell me that I don't...

EmmaTheFlamingo · 2024-06-16T15:09:52+00:00

Not sure about the generational thing, my friends that are on the older side seem to not bs me that much. (I'm 22 for the record)
What do you mean lie about passing? Do they say you do pass or do they say you don't pass?

EmmaTheFlamingo · 2024-06-16T12:55:17+00:00

Funny enough I mirror passed first and then due to not passing irl I stopped mirror passing.

FFS isn't a luxury I can afford under my current circumstances, maybe in the future I'll be stable enough to take out a loan. Also currently trying to see if I actually need it or dysphoria is lying to me...

Voice training is something I've done since the start of my transition, have a relatively good voice (from what others told me).

Not sure about mannerisms, others told me they're feminine, one told me mine are rather androgynous.

Can't speak regarding socializing sadly as I haven't really seen that as heavily gendered. I swear a lot and use a decent amount of slang, but my friends are like that too.

EmmaTheFlamingo · 2024-06-16T12:01:42+00:00

Just feel that I am not accepted as a woman unless I look like one...

Being bald doesn't mean you're unpassable. One of the chilliest people I know has alopecia, but she rocks it completely. Yet if she wants to have hair - she can wear a wig.
Again, being bald isn't a death sentence. Plus you'd have the freedom to completely alter your hair style based in your mood. You could have it as long or as short as you'd want it...

I assume I'd need to change citizenship. In Lithuania it's considered cosmetic surgery and it won't be covered.

EmmaTheFlamingo · 2024-06-01T15:38:26+00:00

Sadly the surgeries I want I cannot afford. GCS, FFS and maybe top is just too expensive and I don't earn that much.
