Subject: [ug-msosug] Melbourne Solaris / OpenSolaris Users Group - Call
to Meeting - 18:00, Wednesday November the 19th.
Greetings all -
We are *very* rapidly approaching the next meeting, which, as we usually
aim for, falls on the 3rd Wednesday of the month! (This coming
Wednesday!)
Well - Last month saw the most feedback we have seen for some time - The
Mark Davies talk on OpenSource in the Business World... dang - If you
don't get the whole 'open' thing after that, you never will. Thanks,
Mark!
Boyd also beat us up with some Cluster, showing just how simple and
flexible cluster is these days. Cheers!
NOW - It's time to get Hairy Chested. :)
Arya Abdian, one of our newest MSOSUGGERS has volunteered (at gunpoint!)
to do a chat on Solaris / Active Directory integration the $0 way. (well
- $0 in that it only takes time, which may or may not cost $0... :) and
Nathan will be chatting about M3000 and T5440 Hardware and maybe even
some storage stuff if time permits. (See below for full details)
Please respond in the positive OR negative ASAP so Pizza and Drinks can
be planned. :)
Where?
Level 7, 476 St Kilda Road, Melbourne,
When?
Wednesday November the 19th, 2008 at 18:00 for general
discussion.
Speakers start at 18:30 sharp, with Pizza arriving somewhere around
20:00ish.
Speakers / Topics will be:
- Arya Abdian
Hairy Chested Solaris and Active Directory Integration.
Watch in amazement as Arya takes a Solaris box and
configures and compiles his was to Active Directory
integration without having to pay vendors a cent!
- Nathan Kroenert
With all the new stuff recently announced, we'll look
at hardware architecture of the newest servers in the
Sun fleet - The M3000 and the T5440.
And - if there happens to be time, a quick demo of the
brand spanking new FISHworks storage appliance.
Crikey! That's a lot of stuff!
Soft drink, coffee/tea and Pizza will be available. (YES - FOOD.)
**If you plan to attend, please reply NOW to nathan at sun.com so that we
can plan for seating / pizza / drinks!**
To anyone who meets with or talks to folks interested in Solaris: Please
let everyone know about the meeting, the time and the date. We had a
great first meeting, and would love to continue to grow the group.
A note on access: The Lifts in the building and entrance to Level 7
automatically lock early in the evening, so access will be provided by
Sun folks on-site. A sign will also be placed close to the ground floor
lifts with a contact number, should you arrive after the start of the
meeting.
If you are interested in Solaris, doing interesting things with, or on
Solaris, we want YOU!
