High performance string concatenation in Python
Posted on November 1st, 2011 by lausser
During evaluation of the migration of a customer’s Nagios installation to the Shinken monitoring system, i encountered a strange problem. Reading the configuration from a few files (hosts.cfg, services.cfg, etc) took a reasonable amount of time. But as soon as i divided the configuration into lots of smaller files (one directory for each host with several services files within), it took nearly an hour. What happened?

Speicher löst sich nicht mehr in Luft auf dank check_hpasm
Posted on October 14th, 2011 by lausser
Während des Bootens von Proliant-Servern wird eine umfangreiche Prüfung der verbauten Speichermodule durchgeführt. Entdeckt das Bios dabei Ungereimtheiten oder schadhafte DIMMs, so werden diese auskonfiguriert und der Bootvorgang fortgesetzt. Ob dies bei einem Server vorgekommen ist, zeigt ein Blick ins Integrated Management Log. Dort erscheint dann folgende Meldung:
Event: 26 Added: 03/08/2011 21:01 CAUTION: POST Messages - POST Error: 207-Memory initialization error on Processor 1 DIMM 6. The operating system may not have access to all of the memory installed in the system..

Jolokia 0.95 is here
Posted on August 21st, 2011 by roland
The summer break is over and Jolokia is one step closer to 1.0. Germans might reasonably argue, ‘ehm, what summer do you talk about ?’ but at least 0.95 is now a fact and introduces two new features. Very cool features, IMO.

check_oracle_health kann EZCONNECT
Posted on August 11th, 2011 by lausser
Üblicherweise ruft man check_oracle_health mit den Kommandozeilenparametern
check_oracle_health --username <user> --password <pass> --connect <sid> </sid></pass></user>
auf. Voraussetzung dafür ist natürlich, dass die SID in einem Verzeichnisdienst oder in einer Datei tnsnames.ora vorhanden sein muss.
