I’m celebrating the 100,000 views mark on my “Logical Volume Management on #Linux” piece on +developerworks http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lvm2/index.html
Actually, it’s almost at the 200,000 views mark if we consider both Russian and Japanese translations.
And it’s a 7 year article so it’s time for an update or a new article altogether. What would you like to see on the #LVM or #PowerLinux theme? Tweet or send comments!
Volume management is not new in the -ix world (UNIX, AIX, and so forth). And logical volume management (LVM) has been around since Linux kernel 2.4v1 and 2.6.9v2. This article reveals the most useful features of LVM2–a relatively new userspace toolset that provides logical volume management facilities–and suggests several ways to simplify your system administration tasks. Based on reader feedback, the author has updated Listings 10, 14, 15, and…

Wanna know what DOVE, CNA, East/West communication, EVB, SDE, FFDC and other terms means in a #PureSystem context?
As a guess blogger to expertintegratedsystemsblog.com, I just posted a brief "glossary or terms" entry that may help in understanding some of the terms that surround, but are not exclusive to, Expert Integrated Systems such as PureSystems and PureFlex systems.
Your comments are welcome as always!
As someone who came from engineering (and is still a proud open source geek), I often find myself wanting to have a dictionary of terms. Just like a level-setting introduction, my favorite programm…

It also summarized the latest announcements made around Power Systems (Solarflare, Platform Symphony, Hadoop among others), as well as some of the challenges – which by the way we welcome as opportunities to tackle them head-on with game-changing initiatives such as bringing open virtualization to our hardware.
IBM also said at the Red Hat Summit that it would open Power Systems Linux Centers in Austin, Texas, and New York City to help developers port Linux code to Power7+ machinery. IBM opened the first such center in Beijing a month ago. New York, of course, is a financial services center, …

IBM will support leading NoSQL MongoDB API through DB2
IBM will support leading NoSQL MongoDB API through DB2
Excellent news that IBM is working to support the MongoDB API through DB2, a very important move to converge and support the NoSQL paradigm, which a lot of emerging OpenSource and web applications are starting to adopt.
IBM developers can now write apps using MongoDB’s query language to interact with data stored in DB2 and WebSphere, and vice versa, giving IBM’s tech greater use and relevance in an age dominated by cheap or free solutions. IBM will preview support of MongoDB’s JSON-oriented query method in DB2 …
