That's actually not too hard (data retention and confidentiality policies). I did some work on it when in the Inferno Business Unit, based on my journalfs. As far as I can tell it doesn't appear in the Vita distribution. Maybe it was lost. The design satified bank regulations.
When I left the Unit(s) and went upstairs I was confused for weeks by questions about "where is this", "where is that". /home/brucee/src I would say (IBU used Suns and god knows what else). It turned out that some pointy headed sys admin had deleted my home directory. OK then thhe backups. NO! Our home directories were never backed up! I told the VP that if that disk crashed he would lose over a $1 million of work. Things may have changed then - but I doubt it. At least two sysadmins were sacked from that unit, a rare thing at the Labs. If someone needs something like this I might be able to find some code, on a ZIP disk that probably won't work. brucee On Sun, Nov 9, 2008 at 8:12 AM, erik quanstrom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> purely virtual infrastructure for rolling out services is a good idea >> but the pieces aren't there yet. also, it assumes that the vm/vs >> service provider will be able to provide as good or better quality of >> service as you would maintaining your own infrastructure. > > one also needs to deal with data retention and confidentiality > issues more directly. neither fossil nor ken's fs were designed with > this in mind. > > - erik > >
