Mon Apr 6 09:14:59 EDT 2015 Slept pretty well. Leftover Easter ham with my eggs this morning. Goals: Work: - Set up grub jobs on mizzen and zol Done. - Set up network bridges on mizzen and zol No, tomorrow. - Set up job to check mdadm status (and other statuses?) Unnecessary. With mail to root going to an appropriate place, we should get alerted. (`/etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf` specifies MAILADDR for alerts as root by default, so `/etc/aliases` makes the right thing happen.) `man mdadm.conf` says: MAILADDR The mailaddr line gives an E-mail address that alerts should be sent to when mdadm is running in --monitor mode (and was given the --scan option). There should only be one MAILADDR line and it should have only one address. And indeed: # ps aux | grep mdadm root 3027 0.0 0.0 13108 756 ? Ss Mar27 0:00 /sbin/mdadm --monitor --pid-file /run/mdadm/monitor.pid --daemonise --scan --syslog - Verify *nix boxes have root mail aliased to alert mailbox. Done. - Move dhcp server to different box after hours. Done. Home: - Eat pizza - Watch Netflix
