LDAP/IdM:

• Updates: No issues in last night’s update.
• Accounts: No (0) errors in 96 new accounts.

Backups:

• Save Groups:
  • The gang of three repeats…
  • cdc03 – alias bug! DAMN YOU EMC
  • emsweb – lack of space for VSS
  • pespenilab – disk full error
• Clones:
  • DISK finished.
• Tapes:
  • Forty (40) tapes added to Scratch.
• Firmware:
  • Arguing with the BOMC process to get a bootable USB.
    • I lost…
  • DOH!  mkfs.vfat is not on the system
  • logs are in /var/log/IBM_Support
    • Which clearly says mkfs.vfat is missing
    • Why couldn’t the error message have included that?
    • yum install dosfstools
  • to convert USB to one that WILL work:
    • mkdosfs -I -F 32 (like /dev/sdb)
    • Well, that didn’t work either.. had to use fdisk and create a single partition (partition #4, type b) on /dev/sdb so the bomc could format /dev/sdb4 (sigh)
