Setting Up An iSCSI Environment On Linux | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

by camel & 1 other
Setting Up An iSCSI Environment On Linux Nowadays, the iSCSI technology is quite popular in the storage world. This article shows an iSCSI demo environment which consists of one Debian Linux host and one Netapp Filer.We try to show the most important features of this protocol. 1. What is iSCSI? It is a network storage protocol above TCP/IP. This protocol encapsulates SCSI data into TCP packets. iSCSI allows us to connect a host to a storage array via a simple Ethernet connection (tape drive). This solution is cheaper than the Fibre Channel SAN (Fibre channel HBAs and switches are expensive). From the host view the user sees the storage array LUNs like a local disks. iSCSI devices should not be confused with the NAS devices (for example NFS). The most important difference is that NFS volumes can be accessed by multiple hosts, but one iSCSI volume can by accessed by one host. It is similar to SCSIi protocol: usually only one host has access to one SCSI disk (the difference is the cluster enviroment). The iSCSI protocol is defined in the RFC3720 document by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force).

google blackle

by jl2k5
Saviez-vous qu'une recherche sur Google consommait autant d'énergie qu'une lampe de 11 Watts allumée pendant 1 heure ? Nous venons d'apprendre que Google a réagi suite à cette prise de conscience; en mettant le fond d'écran de Google en noir (au lieu de blanc), on s'est aperçu que l'on pouvait économiser 750 mega Watt/Heure par an ! Ainsi Google a décidé de mettre en place cette version "noire" : www.blackle.com, avec exactement les mêmes fonctions que la version "blanche", mais bien sûr une consommation d'énergie moindre. Aidez-nous à répandre cette information et utilisez dès maintenant cette version. De plus, enregistrez cette page en tant que page d'accueil et vous économiserez encore de l'énergie !

Blackle - Energy Saving Search

by sbrothier & 11 others (via)
Powered by Google, Blackle was created on the premise that a black, as opposed to a white, computer screen saves a significant amount of energy. Multiply that by the number of searches conducted a day and we're on to something. We know that not everyone is crazy about the look of a black screen, but part of this sustainable design gig is about examining our perceptions of beauty. Maybe if the bevel and embossed logotype were tweaked just a bit.

Bordeaux: Juppé tombe de sa selle | Rue89

by sbrothier
Juché sur son vélo, Juppé avait commencé à habiter sa fonction: ministre de l'Ecologie et du Développement durable, numéro deux du gouvernement Fillon. Mais tous ces coups de pédale n'auront servi à rien. Alain Juppé, qui a perdu les élections (avec 49,07% des voix contre 50,93 à la socialiste Michèle Delaunay), doit maintenant démissionner. Car comme l'avait décrété le Premier ministre François Fillon, "les ministres qui ne seront pas élus ou réélus seront remerciés".

Jamie Wieck / Portfolio / Another Bloomin' Designer

by sbrothier & 2 others
For this project I set out to design a business card that a prospective client would want to keep on their table rather than in their pocket. The result was a business card that worked like a miniature house-plant, growing alfalfa or cress when dipped in water - a business card for 'another bloomin' designer'. The logo was also cut into a 'seed stencil' that allowed the logo to be grown on either earth or lawn; on uncut grass, the message would remain hidden until the area was mown.

Encyclopedia of Earth

Welcome to the Encyclopedia of Earth, a new electronic reference about the Earth, its natural environments, and their interaction with society. The Encyclopedia is a free, fully searchable collection of articles written by scholars, professionals, educators, and experts who collaborate and review each other's work. The articles are written in non-technical language and will be useful to students, educators, scholars, professionals, as well as to the general public.

Running the Numbers - An American Self-Portrait

by sbrothier & 1 other
This new series looks at contemporary American culture through the austere lens of statistics. Each image portrays a specific quantity of something: fifteen million sheets of office paper (five minutes of paper use); 106,000 aluminum cans (thirty seconds of can consumption) and so on. My hope is that images representing these quantities might have a different effect than the raw numbers alone, such as we find daily in articles and books. Statistics can feel abstract and anesthetizing, making it difficult to connect with and make meaning of 3.6 million SUV sales in one year, for example, or 2.3 million Americans in prison, or 426,000 cell phones retired every day. This project visually examines these vast and bizarre measures of our society, in large intricately detailed prints assembled from thousands of smaller photographs.
