09:53:16 Hi, I read about SmartOS being acquired by MNX, is there something I need to do as a user of SmartOS? 10:06:43 jhertz: generally no, the tooling will mostly handle the changes to hostnames etc so for example new images will have all of the new URLs in place 10:07:20 the situations where you may need to are for example if you follow the trunk package set, in which case have a look at the mailing list archives where I posted instructions on migrating to the new package server 10:08:02 but for the most part you can continue to piadm upgrade to the latest platform versions and imgadm create new zones without any changes 10:33:34 jperkin: Ok, cool, is this the thing you are refering to if I am "follow the trunk package set", https://smartos.topicbox.com/groups/smartos-discuss/Tc0914fe1414685b5/heads-up-trunk-packages-moved-to-pkgsrc-smartos-org 10:34:33 yep that's the one 10:36:07 So lets say I am moving a Zone from and old machine to a new one, could that cause an issue since the image from the ZONE now have a diffrent uuid or URL? 10:59:10 no, all the historical uuids are the same 12:15:54 jperkin: cool, thanks! 14:36:25 jperkin: what does the mnx acquisition mean in terms of development? 14:37:07 is it just the joyent cloud stuff that's shifting direction or are all the devs poofing? 14:37:17 there are more people working on triton at mnx than there were at joyent 14:39:00 the joyent that exists today is nothing like the one that existed a few years ago in terms of what is being worked on (some of the people are the same but samsung took product focus in a completely different direction) 14:39:17 ok awesome. we are a small startup company with 0 outside capital and smartos has been a godsend for us because it works for us on our somewhat dated ebay servers :) 14:40:23 because we are only using smartos and not paying attention to the bigger world out there, this mnx acquisition is news to me as of now 14:40:46 it also explains why i haven't seen any pkg updates available for a while on some of our zones lol 14:41:30 yeh I'd strongly recommend signing up for the mailing list to keep track of things, while we try to keep breaking changes to an absolute minimum it is sometimes required and that's the best place to find out 14:42:31 signed up thanks 14:43:04 but for example in terms of package updates, there was nobody at joyent working on them full-time since I moved to SRE a few years ago (I kept a few things running when I had time), whereas now I'm back working on them full-time with a decent chunk of investment in terms of hardware etc. 14:43:28 so if there's stuff you're interested in, lemme know! 14:48:36 our use case is pretty basic. just smartos on a bunch of ebay specials spread across 3 different branch offices 14:49:20 mostly debian-11 images. postgres in zones 14:52:35 maybe i'll stop by and see y'all in a couple months when i'm in the area
