Kernel Upgrades 4/16 11PM PST


I am planning another kernel upgrade this Friday April 16th starting at 11pm. If all goes well it should be concluded by 11:30pm. If it does not, it may be as late as 12:30pm.

These upgrades will affect virtually all of our services including friendica.eskimo.com/ and hubzilla.eskimo.com/ Fediverse social media sites.

There is some issue with the current grub that is sometimes causing the update after installing a new kernel to fail requiring manual intervention.

Unfortunately, the climate and latitude of Canada makes the sun kind of tricky. We just had 6-8 months of winter where your skin has turned white from no sun and wearing clothes. Now you want to be outside so much that it causes a sunburn pretty easily. Going from 0-100 is not fun for your body.

I think a blend would be helpful. Maybe 30 minutes of nude/semi-nude sunbathing and then lather up the sunscreen after that. I never had much of a problem with sunburns when I lived in Texas on my face and other areas. Now that I'm up near Canada, I'm having a lot of problems with sunburns.

Kernel Upgrades Completed


It was not a clean upgrade. Grub got corrupted on one machine, one server didn't properly export the exports until I manually restarted the nfs server. There were quite a few broken NFS mounts. So, some things were back up at 11:16, and the broken systems were gradually restored with restoration completed at 12:07.

friendica.eskimo.com/ and hubzilla.eskimo.com/ are back up and operational. Actually this was one of the things operational at 11:16.

Kernel Upgrades


I plan to upgrade kernels on all the servers tonight starting at 11PM Pacific Daylight Time. Upgrades should be concluded by midnight. This will result in outages lasting 10-20 minutes for each physical server and perhaps another ten minutes for virtual machines on that server depending upon whether NFS and NIS properly bind after reboots or not.

This will affect friendica.eskimo.com/ and hubzilla.eskimo.com/

Mint 20.1 Synaptic Fuxored


Mint has at least for the past decade disabled the Mark Updates function of synaptic package manager but until 20.x it was easy to re-enable by removing one of Mint's conf files. Now that file no longer exists and I have not been able to find out how to re-enable this functionality. Can anyone tell me? Yes I realize Mint is trying to force me to use their update function, I prefer to not do so.
