About Dramsey
Email: MailTo (dramsey AT fedorapro ject DOT org)
Located on the far right of this picture (in the pink shirt,) I am a Fedora 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 user currently experiencing the x86 version. I am trying to integrate useful system administration ideas for my Fedora systems.
- I am very interested in large memory model programs and multi-core computer systems. I enjoy using virtual machines (VMs) in order to develop a formidable system solution. Through the use of VMs, I am able to try out a variety of software solutions on a VM prior to installation of the software on my production system.
- I have taken RH033VT, RH131VT, RH142VT, RH253VT, and RH301VT coursework, in order to further establish my Red Hat educational foundation.
- Currently, I am enjoying 24 hour access to the Live Access Labs running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
- My next training classes will be the "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update Course" - RHUP305 and "Red Hat Enterprise System Monitoring and Performance Tuning" - RH442VT
Virtual Machine Information
FYI on Virtual Machine Information integration
- Each VM has 3072 MB of RAM as well as two CPU cores allocated for execution and evaluation purposes within an established baseline VM system.
- My latest Fedora 12 (Constantine) kernel is 2.6.32.12-115.fc12.i686.PAE. I am very interested in progress in GRUB Ext4 support, NFSv4Default and NetworkManager System Connections
- Good to see how the iBus Intelligent Input Bus "input framework method system" and Ext4 file system "checksum feature for the journal" have developed.
- Very interesting to see how the Yum Langpack Plugin and the Udisks disk management improvements are proceeding.
- When I have the VMs running with 1536 MB of RAM, I am able to enjoy using VMs for executing my Fedora 9, 10, 11, and 12 systems. With the effective use of VMs, I am able to concurrently run 9 VMs on my workstation. There are three pictures at the bottom of this page:
