we had problems with the nfs-service and had build up a temporary solution for 
the time the root sleeps. FYI.

Sincerely,
DaB.

Hey,

thanks a lot.

I think I found the culprit:

| /dev/mapper/yarrow0-var
|   915712  915712   0  100% /var
| timl@yarrow:~$





With my privileges, I can't find out what's causing this.
What I would look at first if I could would be
/var/log/iptraf and /var/spool/postfix/*.



What filled it up was /var/log/sudo-io. It creates 5 files for every time sudo 
is used.
I once had a loop running including a sudo command - this might have caused the 
problem since nightshade is far away from this usage of inodes.


Tried to log into syslog which works but the directory itself stays there and 
is used so I dont currently have any idea how to turn this off.



After fixing this, we need Nagios alerts for /var as well.



Done :).




P. S.: Toolserver Office Hour + 10 days = today.



What do you mean with this?


Cheers

Merlissimo had filed
https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-1649 earlier.  Now
someone or something has freed about 96 % of inodes on /var,
but left no note, so I don't know if the queues on yarrow
can be enabled again.

[Toolserver-l] Amsterdam hackathon workshops

2013-05-10 Thread Finne Boonen
For all Amsterdam hackathon attendees

We've made a first draft of the programme for the Amsterdam Hackathon. We
have room for 6 workshops which will be run twice over the course of the
Hackathon.

Which topics should we cover in them? Based on your motivations, we've made
a list of the top 8 topics that seem to be of interest. Please take a look
at the page and let us know which topics you'd be most interested in:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Amsterdam_Hackathon_2013/Topics

For some of these workshops we're still looking for presenters. Are you
interested? Let us know! (hackat...@wikimedia.nl)

Think you could fill a 1h (interactive) workshop for one of these topics,
but you're not sure?  I'll help you create a workshop and help you practice
beforehand.

Finne (henna)
On behalf of the programme committee
