[tech] Notes from downtime this weekend

[James Andrewartha]

Hi all,

mussel is now running on maraena with a 2.6.30 backport kernel, as lenny's 
2.6.26 isn't recognised as a valid kernel by pygrub. You need to run
"echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" when installing kernels and using 
pygrub thanks to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466681 I've 
moved mussel:/space to martello:/space/mussel for space reasons.

mylah is now the Windows domain controller and login server. We should 
probably review the use of "admin users" in smb.conf and fix all the wheel 
users whose NTUSER.DAT is owned by root. The various filesystems on 
musundo are still there, but have canmount set to noauto. I'll nuke them 
and reinstall it with OpenSolaris 2010.03 when it's released.
