6 pin standards

The standard colors could be found here

RJ11 is a 6p2c schema (6 pin 2 conductors)
RJ14 is a 6p4c schema
RJ25 is a 6p6c schema
The table for the different RJ pin layout could be found here

RJ45

RJ45S is 8p8c schema, follow the 8 pin schema
It has two different schemas T568A and T568B

Sometimes we don't know which file exactly changed upon execution, usually it's something in the /var/log/ and may be in the tmp or even next to the application executable.

Method 1 - Size Differences

To handle such a situation, we may get the logical size (not physical size) of all the non-zero files then run the script.sh then get the new non-zero sizes and diff the outputs to get the specific files that got a change in size

TL;DR

Automated spawning of RPI images

We could use Vagrant to spawn an arm VM using this guide
The flow is like Vagrant -> Libvirt -> KVM -> QEMU -> Modified RPI image.
I remember finding an ansible book that modifies the RPI image for us, but I can't find it now ...

Mix Sound of Multi RPIs

To use a single speaker for multiple rpis, it would be tricky to search for that as Google will always redirect to multiple speakers a single rpi option.
Instead search for DAW mixer, here's a good list.
My understanding is that, the cheapest thing would be to utilize a whole SoC to mix between differen rpis and capture the sound output of this SoC. A [physical mixer](https://www.amazon.com/Rolls-MX42-Stereo-Mini-Mixer/dp/B00102ZN40/ref=sr_1_3?ots=1&slotNum=2&imprToken=bcb94584-e9de-a05d-6b7&tag=ars

Vagrant

To run a GUI (no need for X) in a virtualbox, use vb.gui = true in the virtualbox section
To run a GUI (with X Windows Server) in a virtualbox, instead of just forwarding, follow this guide

A trip into the logs of gitlab.

Structure

To understand which file to check and when, following is the structure tree of the logs

.
├── gitlab
│   ├── api_json.log
│   ├── application.log  ----------- (Headline of the performed tasks by gitlab)
│   ├── audit_json.log

Answer is here

Steps are:

sudo X -quiet -nolisten tcp -noreset :4 vt8
DISPLAY=:4 virtualbox &

then ctrl+alt+f8 I recommend using the first command on a tty that isn't 7 (may be tty6) and the same for the other command on may be tty5.

systemd Basics is a great intro to the topic.
Man pages may be your next target.
Understand systemd series.
Run before shutdown
Trigger upon log, not systemd, but could be relevant.
Configure to auto-restart after crash. We need to know how many restarts occured to track the health/stability of the service.

	## Status

	# export DISABLE_STATUS="true" # any status

	export DISABLE_STATUS="" # the specified status
