DRBD lvm replication details

	The scenario:

	Customer is setting up DRBD chef server. They have 1 TB raid array, but only use around 2 GB of that
	space for chef server. Our directions call out for setting up LVM at 80% of physical volume for bit
	level replication.

	Customer wanted to know if we can setup LVM for a much smaller chunk of the RAID so they can utilize
	the rest of it for soemthing else, for example Nexus.

	Benefits:
	* Uses standard knife subcomands
	* Out of the box
	Caveats:
	* Requires the users private keys on the jenkins machine.

	can put kanban on top of github.
	can also roll up multiple github repos.

	can do milestones based on lables or tags.

vinyar / Cookbook dependency reverse lookup.rb

Last active September 5, 2015 21:31

cookbook reverse dependency lookup

	Its a cookbook class that we use to abstract cookbooks and their
	dependencies. The key method to look at is dependency_hash which creates
	a hash based on the dependencies of the cookbook.

	We do not explicitly do a reverse dependency lookup but we can use this
	hash to infer a change in dependencies from a change in any cookbook in
	an environment. So the flow is:

	1. I change cookbook A and it gets sent to the chef server and indexed
	in berks.
