I can do some part-time help. Keeping brutus out of the todo list of the infrastructure team is a "good thing".

Anybody here got sufficient Apache mojo to be trustworthy of root on Brutus? Sam isn't able to be our sole admin, and I don't think infrastructure want to take on our issues (if we -- i.e. Stefano/Leo/Stefan?) will take it on.

Folks,
Some questions regarding Brutus:
1) Do (sufficient) infrastructure folk have root password on Brutus now?
In
short, can I post change requests here (not to [EMAIL PROTECTED] & hope Sam is looking?)
2) Do infrastructure folk have any performance metrics/monitoring
software?
The gump instance on Brutus used to take an hour or so, and now it takes a few, however I'm not "in touch w/ the machine's performance" sufficiently
to
be able to determine if this is a performance problem, or this is just the projects that Gump is now running & the work they do.
If there was a slow down (and I can't be sure) it is likely Gump code, but events like extra memory, new OS, extra CPU haven't made me 'feel' it is faster.
BTW: I run 'top' and see (typically) two things running -- top and
something
in Gump (python, cvs, java, etc.) I wonder if I ought raise Gump priority above other things, or if this is just rude? Ought I by running Gump niced lower, since it is so resource intensive?
3) Is there a way (other than cron) to run something semi-continuously (as
a
daemon/service), have it restarted if/when it exits, and such? Am I describing some init.d related thing? Could anybody provide me with OS appropriate pointers? [TIA]
4) If infrastructure do have root (see 1), would you be willing to (1) install tomcat as a service (not user level) (2) alter ProxyPass configuration in the Apache HTTPD. I could write up what I'd like to see, and submit it via JIRA, for review/comment/queuing.
