Circular dependency issue

I use beegfs at work for the redundancy and clustering aspect. 1.8PB of storage with 100% redundancy.

While it supports a lot and CAN be quite involved, a very basic setup is in fact pretty simple:

A filesystem on a machine is a storage target.
A machine with storage targets is a storage node. (beegfs-storage)
A management server (beegfs-mgmtd) connects these together into a filesystem.
Any machine runs beegfs-client to mount this filesystem.
One machine needs to run beegfs_meta for the Metadata. It doesn’t require a lot.

Both dhcpd and bind support failover.

If you want to have failover storage you might want to look into beegfs, as storage targets can be mirrored across hosts.

Well it’s not fucking blank anymore then, is it??

But but I was promised that if I voted Jill Stein, I’d be teaching DNC a lesson!

I’ve been resolving them since the late 90s, no worries.

0. Because I’m old, crusty, and prefer software deployments in a similar manner.

I want to be buried with my treasure, and as a data hoarder I will have to leave instructions for writing it all to tape.

It’s mostly automated exploit finders looking for low hanging fruit. fail2ban and up to date software is your friend.

Fortran. At least it was comprehensible to a human brain once upon a time. And probably efficiently written.
