As mentioned I’m working on a best practices guide for ZLM7.
I’m writing a discussion of the package universe concept; how it differs from previous versions of ZLM (ZLM 6.x and RCE) and some design recommendations.
I also wrote a nifty script to populate the package universe 🙂 I’ll share that when I’ve tested it to death – but here’s the output:
Right now I can build all of my package universe as well as SP2 updates for SLES 9 and NLD 9. It takes about 20 minutes and minimal prep work.

I started zlmirror running last night – on my live server.
It ate all my bandwidth 🙂

No sooner is BrainShare Barcelona over – then we start planning for BrainShare in Salt Lake City in March 2006!
I don’t want to reveal anything on our plans – but for the ZENworks tracks it’s going to be very interesting. Watch this space!

I’ve been flooded with requests for a more detailed ZENworks 7 Linux Management document – something like what I wrote for ZLM 6.6.1
I’m on it now. I am installing to a fresh, new SLES 9 server – and hopefully I’ll get something out soon.
Current fun – documenting the server-side dependancies. XFree86-libs? wtf? Turns out some of the eDirectory management tools have funky requirements. Do people really build servers with X and a desktop on them?

I managed to get some time out from BrainShare last week. I spent a few hours with John Mahon from Dublin at the Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia. More simply the cathedral of La Sagrada Familia.
For anyone who has ever been to Barcelona – or even heard of Barcelona – it is one of the most striking sights in the city. Totally dominating the skyline from every part of the city. Add to this the story of how this massive cathedral has been under construction for over a century; with still decades to completion.
