[opensuse-project] talk at or visit Linux Open Administration Days
Hi all, April 16-17 in Antwerp, Belgium, the Linux Open Administration Days will take place. This free event offers a chance for LPI certification as well as meeting and talking to linux sysadmins. There is a call for presentations here: http://www.loadays.org/content/call-presentations If you want to go and give a talk there about openSUSE tech - that's be awesome. If you can't afford to go there due to travel or hotel costs, let me know, we might be able to work something out ;-) cheers, Jos

If you want to go and give a talk there about openSUSE tech - that's be awesome. If you can't afford to go there due to travel or hotel costs, let me know, we might be able to work something out ;-) I was there this year as syslog-ng guy, and it was really great. It's focused on system administrators as its name also says, and it is an area where openSUSE needs some marketing (at least I don't know many

I run it on 4 servers here and about a dozen processing systems (not really servers, they dual boot to windows based on the work that needs to be done.). 1 server is fedora. 1 server is centos. (ie. 6 linux servers total, a couple windows servers also exist.)

Yes, I'm aware, that there are some people running openSUSE on servers, I'm one of them :) On the other hand, most people I know are using SLES, CentOS or Debian when it comes to servers, even if using openSUSE on the desktop. So we definitely need to break out from the "desktop OS" stamp. A presentation at Loadays by someone doing it at a larger scale than I (a stand alone home and university server) could help in this. And of course anywhere else, as the next Loadays is still far and away. Bye, CzP

I'm running openSUSE on many servers (ok, as many as a hobby allows) and I couldn't agree more. But let me point out (again) that it won't work as long as we have 18 months of official support only. Actually that's one of the reasons why I started off Evergreen (mainly for my own needs) but it's not too successful contribution wise yet. I hope we can do a lot better and with more contribution starting with Evergreen/11.4. I still have two 11.1 servers exposed to the internet but Evergreen/11.1 is basically dead and I'm really thinking about replacing one with Debian now. I really don't want but the workload/software stack on that machine does support Debian much better than openSUSE and I don't need to think about full upgrades that often :-( Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

We're probably going somewhat OT here, but I guess we do have a bit of a "desktop OS" image. However, if we want to break away from that, we need more than marketing. We could do with some more work in optimizing for deployment on servers - minimum selection pattern, snmp, iscsi, systemd, syslog, etc.

Most of my systems are running oS 11.0 or 11.1. I think I may even have an elderly 10.3 somewhere. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
