Canberra Linux Users Group Meeting - 28th October 2010
======================================================
Date: 28th October 2010 (Fourth Thursday of the month)
Time: 19:00 - 21:00 (or when it finishes)
Speaker: Antti Roppola
Abstract: I recently repeated a process by which I conducted a
brain transplant of a running production server,
grafting it onto the brain-stem of a donor Xen guest
instance. This provides a nice, 100% faithful
testinstance of the production server that can be
relatively easily updated/snapshotted as required.
This time I bothered to keep notes. The process might be
of interest to CLUG, it's pretty easy provided you are
careful and have a passing awareness of how the boot
process is structured. No doubt some smarty pants will
alert me to some easy tool that does the job for you.
Venue: Room N101
Computer Science and Information Technology Building
North Road
The Australian National University
