Meeting with Kim Lewell
Posted by gregster on 24 Nov 2006 in Activity log
I had a meeting with Kim Lewall and Ryan Enge regarding TAPoR servers yesterday.
Things we discussed, conclusions we reached:
- Samba will be installed on a TAPoR host (probably spinach) by Christmas and will provide home directory access for TAPoR users.
- PHP 5.2 has been installed on lettuce. We need to test it before it becomes the default php interpreter on lettuce. I sent an email to Martin, David and Stewart outlining the process.
- SUPHP will be edited to accommodate scripts that have a group writable flag set. This will help when there is more than one person editing php files. The switch will take place on the 28th of November sometime in the morning. Ryan will call beforehand.
- MySQL on chard is currently v4.0.x. It will be upgraded to 4.1 at 0730 on the 5th of December. There is a plan in place to ensure minimal downtime and maximum recovery in case of a problem, but Ryan is fairly confident that there will be no issues.
- MySQL 5 will be installed on cress early in the new year, hopefully by the end of January.
- Kim encouraged me to set up TSM clients on our workstations, including Linux. This will need to be a task for me.
