A cautionary tale:
So, at @show we have two #45Drives servers... one is a storinator, running our main video production disk set, with about 700 TiB of drives. The second is a much older (pre-storinator) storage pod, with severely limited I/O but about 400 TiB for the urgent "DO NOT DELETE" stuff on it.
The first is called "Kennedy". It has shares on it named after the Shuttles.
The second is called "Baikonur" it has one share - Buran. It's used for backups.
-----
Before the thanksgiving break, I left both Kennedy and Baikonur up for an extended period, because I was 1) tweaking backups from Kennedy to Baikonur, and 2) I was doing some scrubs.
Turned it off on Friday. Didn't think much about it - other than about three weeks ago, I'd told the server"Sudo Yum Update"
You can see where this is going.
Kennedy runs Rocky, which of course is RHEL-based.
RHEL doesn't have ZFS natively, so you end up using open-ZFS.
I told Kennedy to update. It did. Silently, building its kernel, without ZFS support.OH BUT DEAR READER IT GETS BETTER.
Booting the machine, Samba goes "OK, I have THESE SHARES. It is THE LAW that I must MAKE THESE SHARES AVAILABLE". And Samba, being the pit of plague filled pestilence that it is, goes "I MUST SHARE THESE" and then goes "HUH, I CAN'T READ THESE SO LA LA LA LA I WILL MAKE THEM ANYWAY"
So, I logged in to the server, expecting files, and saw nothing. None of the 700TiB of files were there . NONE. No data, nothing. The share was there, it just wansn't mapped.sigh
After ten minutes, I realized that the new RHEL kernel doesn't have ZFS modules yet that work with it, so... I rolled back 😉
And what have we learned children?
ALWAYS READ RELEASE NOTES and ALWAYS CHECK COMPATIBILITY before doing SERVER UPGRADES.

Nachdem ich in unregelmäßigen Abständen immer wieder darüber nachgedacht habe, habe ich mir vor kurzem nun doch eine #Actioncam gekauft.
Aufgrund einiger Tests wurde es dann nicht das aktuelle Modell des Platzhirsches #Gopro Hero 13 black, sondern die #DJI Osmo Action 5 pro.
Ja ich weiß, für #unplugTrump dann #Chinaware 🤣
Die DJI ist jedenfalls super, klare Empfehlung, was Bedienung, #Bildqualität und #Bildstabilisierung angeht.
Die bisher entstandenen Videos mit der DJI (alle aus 09/2025) findet ihr auf meinem #Peertube #Videoserver:
https://peertube.crazy-to-bike.de/a/crazy2bike
Weniger schön - aber für mich nicht überraschend - ist, dass der Zugriff auf die #Kamera über die #App #DJIMimo (via #Wifi) nur geht, wenn man der App Zugriff auf den Standort gibt und #GPS auch aktiviert ist 🤮
Aber man (ich) weiß sich ja zu helfen, um dem völlig unnötigen #Tracking ein Schnippchen zu schlagen:
#FakeGPS App und in den #Entwickleroptionen von #Android diese App für die #Standortinformation angeben.
DJI bekommt von mir nun wechselnde Standorte von allover the world - z.B. irgendwo in der Sahelzone oder der Antarktis 😁

I am ripping Horse Feathers and Duck Soup from DVD to my home video server. I am happy that I am able to use the latest digital technology to preserve the artistry of the Marx Brothers.
