"Group-buying" supercomputers. |
| posted by Julian Firminger on Nov. 18, 2014, 5:50 a.m. |
| Oak Ridge, Lawrence Livermore and Argonne are bulk-buying their new super computers. (Yes, you read that right.) Which got me thinking, could the same logic apply to M&E?
Not sure many of the execs of some of the businesses represented on SSA would necessarily go for it from a political standpoint. However, a regular topic that is coming up more and more frequently is the lower and lower margins with increasing (or never decreasing) data-center technology costs. I wonder what we collectively could do if 10 studios put a bid to the same vendor for compute nodes or storage.
It's clear that there is great diversity in operations across the member base but not all of that is out of choice. Often end choices are made because one vendor / manufacturer has hit it's targets and will push for market share and you're on the right chair when the music stops. Even outside of that, surely we'd get a lot more attention if we collectively placed an order for 500 x3550's instead of 50, or 20PB of storage instead of 2...
It is, of course, never that simple. let the yelling begin! Snr. Systems Administrator, United Broadcast Facilities Amsterdam, The Netherlands

| Hi,
I was curious if anyone has run into the annoyance that connecting to an
Aspera server requires that you also have access to Amazon cloudfront ?
If yes, do you have any clever workarounds. In this day and age filled
with security woes, I am trying to create way where certain users can be
only given access to a specific Aspera server to upload and download
content. Having to give them access to Cloudfront is not going to be
acceptable.
Here is some info that we have dug up from the interwebs.
https://support.asperasoft.com/entries/100990566-Enabling-Javascript-execution-from-cloudfront-net
"Cloudfront.net is currently (As of 9/2014) used to host some javascript
used by the Aspera Connect web browser plug-in.
If this is not permitted, the result is that various elements of Aspera
Web transfer applications do not render in the
browser and users may be unable to transfer files:"
For a list of IPs that you would need to access
https://forums.aws.amazon.com/ann.jspa?annID=2051
Thanks in advance

launchd and umask in Yosemite 10.10 |
| posted by Rory Falloon on Nov. 21, 2014, 8:15 a.m. |
| So, from what I have read:
launchctl no longer has an interactive mode, nor does it accept commands from stdin. The /etc/launchd.conf file is no longer consulted for subcommands to run during early boot time; this func- tionality was removed for security considerations. While it was documented that $HOME/.launchd.conf would be consulted prior to setting up a user's session, this functionality was never implemented. !
It seems now you have to set a custom umask on an application level.
Anyone else ran into this yet?

| G'day!
What do people do for unattended software deployment on Macs? I'm not
talking about OS installation, I'm talking about application installation.
$WORK develops some software that our customers install on their
machines. Currently for Macs we have a fancy GUI installer that asks the
user various installation specific questions and then installs the
software and creates various config files based on the answers the user
gave. We have a similar installer for Windows but we also offer the
chance to provide the installation data on the command line so it can be
pushed out through Group Policy. For Linux we have a deb package that
can be pre-seeded with the answers to the installation questions.
I'd like to find out what you guys are using to deploy software to Macs
so that we can ensure our software works nicely with those sorts of tools.
Thanks!
Shane.

Display Bandwidth on thunderbolt buses? |
| posted by Rob LaRose on Nov. 21, 2014, 12:25 p.m. |
|
Does anyone know how much bandwidth is used by Apples Cinema display and Thunderbolt display?
Im trying to optimize my usage of the various buses, and the more I read, the less I know.
I *thought* each thunderbolt BUS could do 20Gbps full duplex, but lots of places seem to say each port (2 per bus) can do 20Gbps, for a total of 40Gbps per bus. They use phrases like according to Apple, but I cant find anything with Apples name on it that says that.
Separate from that, Id like to know how display data for a Displayport LED display and/or a thunderbolt display chip into that on a particular bus. How much of my 20 (or is it 40?) is left after driving the display?
I welcome LMGTFY responses that actually return official data.

OSX Server Samba Share // Posix permissions always
700 ? |
| posted by Mathieu Arseneault on Nov. 26, 2014, 9:45 a.m. |
| Hi,
Anyone has experience with OSX Server Samba Shares ? When file/folder is being created through SMB (windows), the posix perms are always 700, which is problematic.
I tried OS X Server 10.6, 10.8, 10.10.
Any insight ?
Thanks Mathieu | |

| Mathieu,
1. What OS specifically are your clients running?
Are your clients Mac or Windows or Linux?
2. Do you use a directory (OD, LDAP, AD)?
Are you using local user accounts?

| Hi Mat, It's on OSX 10.8 ( also tried 10.9 10.10).
The problem is when a Windows 7 client wrote through samba, it writes as 700 (+acls).
We use AD. Thanks !

Samba Tunning with OSX |
| posted by Richard Barnes on Dec. 4, 2014, 4:57 a.m. |
| Hi, Been working on a small project with centos 6.5 on a server (Dell R720) for back ups. I've bonded the NIC's and running a samba share. I have had great success with transferring large files, but when transferring folders with a large number of files and folders (thousands for testing) the speed is dramatically reduced. I created a test case, one 10gig file (FolderA) transfers in around 3 mins, but 10Gig created with thousands of files (FolderB) takes about 8mins. Now you may say that is about right due to acknowledgments, number of files, but I did try with an off the shelf product and even though the folderA took longer (5min), folderB took only 6mins. I found a great site to help with samba tuning, but most of my efforts have resulted in slowing down the transfer rather than speeding it up. https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/speed.html http://www.oreilly.com/openbook/samba/book/appb_02.html There are also references to changing the delayed_ack and sysclt.conf on both the server and the client, though I would prefer to leave the clients as they are. Also tried NFS and FolderB took even longer around 10mins. Any thoughts or person experiences would be greatly received. Kind regards Richard | |

fiber connector question - extending HD signals in a
theatre |
| posted by Matt Daly on Dec. 4, 2014, 11:25 a.m. |
|
I am speccing a project that needs to send HDMI over fiber in a
building. The GC is insisting on terminating the multimode with LC
connectors. I am looking at using a Gefen or Blackbox extenders,
they require multimode with SC connectors. I see that there are
available patch cables that go from LC to SC, does anyone know if
there is any gotcha when using these mixed connector patch cables?
Also - Does anyone have a favorite extender? I am not sold on any
that I have seen. I see a number of cat6 based ones too, also there
is now HDbaseT. I assume latency is a tradeoff, but is it really an
issue?
