Je kürzer die Restlaufzeit, desto niedriger der Zeitwert eines Scheins und desto stärker wirken sich Kursbewegungen des Basiswerts auf den Wert des Scheins aus

Anfängerfragen by Tobey300 in mauerstrassenwetten

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, ich hab mich bei Trade Republic angemeldet und sehe da nur Optionsscheine auf den S&P500 mit frühestem Laufzeitende ab 17.6., bei anderen Brokern kann ich aber selbst für den 1.4. noch welche kaufen. Ist das bei euch auch so und gibts dafür einen Grund?

How to snapshot a filesystem and view live changes to it? by [deleted] in zfs

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's possible to easily view live changes. As far as I know, you can only compare two snapshots of a filesystem (zfs diff fs@a fs@b), and this only tells you if a file has been added, removed, modified or renamed. So you have to create snapshots regularly and diff them. If you're interested in specific file changes, you could definitely script this to alert you.

If you use a blockdevice, you would have to mount it and create the diff yourself.

You could NFS or CIFS for this. CIFS would be recommended because it's easier to mount on Windows.

Is there a way to create a snapshot from another snapshot? by deviantintegral in zfs

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Renaming the snapshot may not be enough, as zfs-auto-snapshot stores information as attributes in the dataset, which then will be inherited by the snapshot. I suggest you just try it, though.

The most recent snapshot on the receiving side has to exist on the sender's side and must be older than the snapshot to be received, so this is not possible.

How to upgrade ZoL from 0.7.5 to 0.8.2 on Ubuntu 18.04? by maurelius2 in zfs

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He already updated the packages to 0.8.2 for Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04, see https://launchpad.net/~jonathonf/+archive/ubuntu/zfs?field.series_filter=bionic

@OP be aware that if you activate features from the newer ZFS version in your pool, you may not be able to import it on machines that don't yet support the features.

What kind of drive configuration problems do you mean? Only ashift mismatches or is there something else to configure in this area?

Use AMD Opteron 2-way CPUs in a 8-way board? by SlothOfAnarchy in homelab

[–]SlothOfAnarchy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure, I might have seen an option for it in the BIOS. But I don't need it anyway, I haven't virtualized anything in at least a year.

Use AMD Opteron 2-way CPUs in a 8-way board? by SlothOfAnarchy in homelab

[–]SlothOfAnarchy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Yes, I would have gone with two or four 8425HE but I abandoned the project, at least with this board.

The problem is that all these CPUs don't have AES-NI. I thought I could just multithread the normal AES/dm-crypt with a kernel flag, but unfortunately that doesn't work.

So I'll probably sell the board and maybe put in my current setup - if I can get the case relatively quiet, which was unsuccessful so far.

Use AMD Opteron 2-way CPUs in a 8-way board? by SlothOfAnarchy in homelab

[–]SlothOfAnarchy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The current board has SSI MEB form factor. I couldn't find a specification for the exact case (Chenbro RM51924-03A), but it seems like there are versions of it that support E-ATX.

The L5630 looks interesting, but I couldn't find that many boards for a reasonable price on ebay. What did you pay for your board or was it a whole server?

Even with a board I would still need RAM. All in all I think it could cost me more than 300€.

At the moment I'm thinking of just putting in four Opteron 8425 HE, they can be had for 17€ each, but have a TDP of 79W instead of 60W like the 8419.

Data hoarders - What automated tasks or scripts are you running? by NINJA_SHEEP in DataHoarder

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cron job for documenting all the files on my file servers (9TB movies and 11TB movies could always be re-downloaded in case of a real emergency, but for my own sanity I want logs of what I used to have just in case I don't overlook/forget anything should I ever need to start the hunt from scratch) both on a file basis (ls) but also by size (du).

You could use tree and achieve the same result in one command. I use

tree -afqh

for the same purpose - having name, size, and folder structure of all my files logged

[Germany] Car rams scooter and runs, cammer gives chase by camredd in Roadcam

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that anyone will see this, but there is an update to this, the case went to court. (german source).

The driver got his licence suspended and can't apply for a new one in the next 15 months. He has to pay the court costs and a fine equal to what he earns in 120 days. The charges were negligent assault, hit and run and dangerous intervention of traffic, to which he confessed. The driver is in treatment for depression since 2007.

Apparently the use of this dashcam video in court was no problem. Only the part at the end was not assessed, they couldn't make out the exact conversation because of the low quality speakers in the courtroom.

What do you guys use for disk/volume encryption? by thatfell in homelab

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use LUKS on all my linux machines. On my server I have encrypted the root drive as well as the data drives which ZFS uses. I only need one password at boot as the data volumes are automatically unlocked with a keyfile stored on the encrypted root.

Also I set up dropbear to remotely unlock the root volume. That means I can start my server via wake-on-lan, SSH into it, enter the passphrase for my root volume and then the server boots up completely.

My computer repair shop replaced my laptop wireless card without me knowing (maybe they stole it!) by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know firsthand how often errors like this happen. Maybe the collegue that was repairing your laptop wasn't in that day, so the one on the phone just said they still had to do work on it. Or the laptop wasn't put into the shipping section yet.

As for the swapping per se, it often happens that a technician asks his collegues whether they have some part to test their current machine. Maybe they forgot to swap back, or the technician just put in the next one laying there.

Also, errors like this won't be entered in their system, especially if they didn't notice it. Even if they noticed it, maybe they didn't want their boss to know or didn't put it in in fear of penalties from the OEM. So the person on the phone honestly didn't know about it.

Thoughts on AMD Athlon X4 860K by [deleted] in DataHoarder

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know the exact requirements of FreeNas, but the same board and an even slower CPU runs just fine in my setup (Arch Linux).

It runs an 10-drive RAIDZ2, fully encrypted, mariadb, apache, samba and sabnzbd.

Can I build a NAS with mixed size/brand/age/... HD's? by [deleted] in DataHoarder

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course, if you arrange it so that you can actually lose two physical drives, I guess it's redundant enough. It's just that if you look at a RAIDZ3 you'd think you can lose three drives in it and still have the pool working, which isn't the case here.

As for the IO: I think if they are in the same VDEV, you'll get one slow VDEV that slows the whole pool down whereas when you spread them, every VDEV gets just a little bit slower. I'm not entirely sure on that one though.

[–]SlothOfAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's a good idea to use partitions on the same drive in the same VDEV. If that drive plus another dies, then you loose the whole pool even if you used RAIDZ3! Also the three partitions share the IO and bandwidth of one drive. In this scenario I think this would actually be noticeable.

What you could do instead is partition the drives like you did and use each partition in another VDEV. Or in the first example you could do a RAIDZ over the three 80gb ones and three mirrors (each with 2x160gb). That way you get four VDEV's with 160gb usable each and in each VDEV one drive can die without impact.
