04:25 πŸ”— ivan w0rmhole: afaik there's no raid, just object duplication
04:26 πŸ”— ivan the OS you can guess from Server: nginx/1.4.6 (Ubuntu)
04:26 πŸ”— ivan Ubuntu 14.04
04:28 πŸ”— ivan hah in 2004 they were using reiserfs https://archive.org/post/19584/filesystem
04:29 πŸ”— ivan I bet the filesystem on the machine doesn't matter very much to them
04:31 πŸ”— ivan w0rmhole: there is a catalogd interface for looking at what happens to your items as you change them, it's basically a rube goldberg machine made out of rsync and php
04:32 πŸ”— ivan afaik an item has a primary and a backup server and it gets rsync'ed over
04:58 πŸ”— w0rmhole thanks for the info ivan, i've always wanted to know how they had it all set up over there
05:00 πŸ”— w0rmhole i thought maybe they'd use zfs because of its gigantic volume size capabilities, but then again, what if several disks fail, i.e. enough to take down the entire array? i have only heard about reiserfs, never used it, so maybe that has protection against something like this
05:00 πŸ”— w0rmhole and yes, i know they have mirrors in several different places
05:01 πŸ”— w0rmhole so its not like a few disks will take down their entire collection, thankfully

22:25 πŸ”— Flashfire I must ask what do a lot of you do as a job to afford the archivist lifestyle
22:35 πŸ”— Igloo has joined #archiveteam-ot
22:35 πŸ”— Igloo I thought I was in here.
22:35 πŸ”— Igloo Maybe I left.
22:35 πŸ”— Flashfire Lol nope
22:35 πŸ”— ivan what if it's all NEETs
22:35 πŸ”— Igloo Anyway, I juse use Hive.Os
22:35 πŸ”— Igloo For a couple of them
22:36 πŸ”— Flashfire but I reccom me monero for the mining. BOINC on at least one machine
22:36 πŸ”— Igloo I run BOINC at home
22:36 πŸ”— Flashfire Which projects?
22:36 πŸ”— Flashfire I’m running seti and enigma. And universe I think
22:37 πŸ”— Igloo Climate prediction
22:37 πŸ”— Igloo As it is partially GPU enabled
22:37 πŸ”— Igloo And I like the spinny earth screen saver
22:37 πŸ”— Flashfire But monero is valuable one at the moment for crypto. That’s the one people are hijacking CPU power for
22:37 πŸ”— Igloo It's always been the case tbh
22:38 πŸ”— Igloo Monero I run on my servers to offset a bit of the cost
22:38 πŸ”— Igloo (Not much right now!)
22:38 πŸ”— Flashfire I might look into climate prediction. But my desktop is only connected to the internet when I am at home. Which is why I had to stop running Yoyo because it kept wanting to check back with the server
22:39 πŸ”— Flashfire My desktop is an old one a friend had he gave it to me for free when he upgraded
22:40 πŸ”— Flashfire Intel core i7 and GTX460. I was just happy to have something other than my MacBook pro
22:40 πŸ”— Igloo Not a bad one tbh
22:40 πŸ”— Flashfire Apple got to the Australian education system before windows and so most schools run iPad and MacBook programs
22:41 πŸ”— Flashfire It was that or a chrome book and I wouldn’t be seen dead with one of them
22:42 πŸ”— Flashfire Never liked the chromebook
22:42 πŸ”— Flashfire Would almost rather have a eeepc
22:43 πŸ”— Flashfire Which was my laptop before the MacBook
22:43 πŸ”— Igloo Yeah, I have a MacBook
22:44 πŸ”— Igloo But the battery has shat itself, Need to spend Β£100 on a new one
22:44 πŸ”— Flashfire My battery is on its way out it’s said service battery for the last 3 months
22:44 πŸ”— Igloo Mine now won't run properly
22:44 πŸ”— Igloo and will just blink the battery LED
22:45 πŸ”— Flashfire Mine is just plugged in most of the time. Eventually it will try but I have backups
22:45 πŸ”— Flashfire i think they are recent
22:45 πŸ”— Flashfire I should check that
22:46 πŸ”— Flashfire Also I don’t think I have cleaned the fans since I got it
22:51 πŸ”— Igloo You're in archiveteam
22:51 πŸ”— Igloo Go fix your backups
22:51 πŸ”— Igloo :P
22:58 πŸ”— Flashfire Yes boss
22:59 πŸ”— JAA You shouldn't really care about backing up your data. You should care about being able to restore your data after a disaster. Test your backups. :-)
