Anyway, here are the currently remaining BUUG books: ISBN-13 ISBN-10 Title 9780132350082 0-13-235008-4 Ajax Construction Kit* 9780132354134 0-13-235413-6 The Official ubuntu Book* 9780321480798 0-321-48079-1 RailSpace 9780132242066 0-13-224206-0 Enterprise AJAX *includes CD(s) and/or DVD(s) I've also still got a few fresh LINUX and other magazines from LinuxWorld and also one last SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 DVD (based on packaging I'd guess that it was at least originally published to go with LINUX Magazine Isssue 82 Sep 2007) - I'll bring those to tomorrow's BUUG meeting. Anything that remains from the above after the 2007-09-06 BUUG meeting I'd hopefully bring to the 2007-09-20 BUUG meeting. references: http://www.weak.org/pipermail/buug/2007-August/002946.html From john at jjdev.com Fri Sep 7 00:35:13 2007 From: john at jjdev.com (John de la Garza) Date: Fri, 7 Sep 2007 00:35:13 -0700 Subject: [buug] lvm issue In-Reply-To: <4cad3e500708311435t390b7471vcf48b9f9e66bf9ce@mail.gmail.com> References: <4cad3e500708311435t390b7471vcf48b9f9e66bf9ce@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: didn't work it got IO errors On Aug 31, 2007, at 2:35 PM, Sami Juvonen wrote: > vgreduce --removemissing > > From the man page: > > Removes all missing physical volumes from the volume group and makes > the volume group consistent again. > > It's a good idea to run this option with --test first to find out > what it would remove before running it for real. > > Any logical volumes and dependent snapshots that were partly on the > missing disks get removed completely.

This one also from the Pearson Education User Group Program. For today's meeting, I'll be bringing: ISBN-13 ISBN-10 Title 9780321480798 0-321-48079-1 RailSpace I also have one issue of the July-August 2007 issue of _The Data Center Journal_ up for grabs for anyone who wants it. Secondly, I'm running a bit behind on reading/processing a fair number of e-mails (mostly from around and since LinuxWorld last month). I hope to be (at least slowly) catching up on that. There are also a few miscellaneous items I still want to get out to the list (e.g. interesting bits from the meeting earlier this month, etc.), but I'll have to catch up on that a bit later. Also, at least catching up a bit on stuff regarding the Pearson Education User Group Program, below please find several of their e-mails (e.g. newsletters, information on User Group discount program, etc.). There are a few of these e-mails - hopefully the below set gets us(/me) all caught up on those. Looks like one of the messages was unfortunately done just in HTML ... but at least it's clean enough HTML it's still quite readable even in non-rendered HTML. Anyway, those e-mails (I also notice they don't seem to have us listed at the URL they mention below - I'll contact them about that): ----- Forwarded message from "InformIT, User Groups" ----- Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2007 13:08:33 -0400 From: "InformIT, User Groups" Reply-To: "InformIT, User Groups" Subject: Welcome to the Pearson Education User Group Program!
