NetWare to Open Enterprise Server 2 Migration – Lessons Learned

Over the past couple of months, I have been involved with migrating remote NetWare servers to Open Enterprise Server 2 (OES2) Linux. During this time, there are some lessons that have been learned that hopefully this article will be able to help you, the reader, perform your own migrations more smoothly and avoid some of the pitfalls we encountered.

LJDT: Taking Advantage of Screen

Last week I was asked if there was a way to start an application at the command line and later come back to it from somewhere else. Normally in Linux/Unix (*nix) it is possible to 'background' a process and then return to it later on but that's only if you are still in the same session where the process was sent to the background. This is useful to have something run while you do other things but reconnecting to this session cannot be done with just the shell. Thankfully 'screen' is on Linux systems by default (all of them I've used anyway) and as a result, Linux Just Does That.

LJDT: iSCSI for Shared Storage

Every day it seems I find something new that Linux Just Does. Last week I finally decided I needed to learn about "shared storage" and started asking the resident experts here, who all pointed me to YaST. Much to my surprise iSCSI is built into YaST and works out of the box with SLES without much more than ten minutes and an understanding of the technology. For the quickest understanding of shared storage I can muster this article is now being created. Hopefully it will be as enlightening to others as this topic was to me.

General Troubleshooting Techniques

Working at Novell in the Support organization I work with some of the best troubleshooters in and throughout the world. Many of the steps used in troubleshooting are common sense and laughed about commonly online ("Is it plugged in") and while these specifics are not that useful most of the time there are general practices that I have learned and feel need to be shared. The purpose of this article is to group everything that may help troubleshooting generally (and in some cases, specifically) for the benefit of those who may not have been in a support organization for several years. This is by no means the end-all, be-all of troubleshooting and I am by no means the best, but working in Novell's Support Forums some of these skills could speed up resolution times for those seeking help or even prevent the need for outside help altogether if applied.

Monitoring the IDM 3.6.1 JVM with JMX/jconsole

The purpose for this article is to present a way of enabling JMX on IDM 3.6.1 JVM on SLES 11, allowing remote monitoring of the JVM itself. The remote monitoring will expose Java memory and Heap usage, Thread usage, loaded classes, CPU usage, among other options.

It will cover how to monitor a system without any level of security (useful only in Dev/QA environment) and also how to enable security on the JMX connections, both through authentication and SSL.
