Finally, i'm able to access data via web ssh
Using Java based web ssh ...Actually this application will be using port 23 as default ...but in order to secure my data and access , i'm decided to use SSH for this connection.
Right now i'm success ...Alhamdulillah ..
p/s thanks to Aman for altering the port. hehe ..you are the man , man
Aman = System owner for machine i put the java apps

HP-UX 11i version 3 in da house - with virtualization
but need more time to understand virtualization on HP-UX ..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualization
http://www.kernelthread.com/publications/virtualization/
Why Virtualization: A List of Reasons
Following are some (possibly overlapping) representative reasons for and benefits of virtualization
Virtual machines can be used to
consolidate the workloads of several under-utilized servers to fewer
machines, perhaps a single machine (server consolidation). Related
benefits (perceived or real, but often cited by vendors) are savings
on hardware, environmental costs, management, and administration of
the server infrastructure.
The need to run legacy
applications is served well by virtual machines. A legacy
application might simply not run on newer hardware and/or operating
systems. Even if it does, if may under-utilize the server, so as
above, it makes sense to consolidate several applications. This may
be difficult without virtualization as such applications are usually
not written to co-exist within a single execution environment
(consider applications with hard-coded System V IPC keys, as a
trivial example).
Virtual machines can be used to
provide secure, isolated sandboxes for running untrusted
applications. You could even create such an execution environment
dynamically - on the fly - as you download something from the
Internet and run it. You can think of creative schemes, such as
those involving address obfuscation. Virtualization is an important
concept in building secure computing platforms.
Virtual machines can be used to
create operating systems, or execution environments with resource
limits, and given the right schedulers, resource guarantees.
Partitioning usually goes hand-in-hand with quality of service in
the creation of QoS-enabled operating systems.
Virtual machines can provide the
illusion of hardware, or hardware configuration that you do not have
(such as SCSI devices, multiple processors, ...) Virtualization can
also be used to simulate networks of independent computers.
Virtual machines can be used to
run multiple operating systems simultaneously: different versions,
or even entirely different systems, which can be on hot standby.
Some such systems may be hard or impossible to run on newer real
hardware.
Virtual machines allow for
powerful debugging and performance monitoring. You can put such
tools in the virtual machine monitor, for example. Operating systems
can be debugged without losing productivity, or setting up more
complicated debugging scenarios.
Virtual machines can isolate what
they run, so they provide fault and error containment. You can
inject faults proactively into software to study its subsequent
behavior.
Virtual machines make software
easier to migrate, thus aiding application and system mobility.
You can treat application suites
as appliances by "packaging" and running each in a virtual
machine.
Virtual machines are great tools
for research and academic experiments. Since they provide isolation,
they are safer to work with. They encapsulate the entire state of a
running system: you can save the state, examine it, modify it,
reload it, and so on. The state also provides an abstraction of the
workload being run.
Virtualization can enable existing
operating systems to run on shared memory multiprocessors.
Virtual machines can be used to
create arbitrary test scenarios, and can lead to some very
imaginative, effective quality assurance.
Virtualization can be used to
retrofit new features in existing operating systems without "too
much" work.
Virtualization can make tasks such
as system migration, backup, and recovery easier and more
manageable.
Virtualization can be an effective
means of providing binary compatibility.
Virtualization on commodity
hardware has been popular in co-located hosting. Many of the above
benefits make such hosting secure, cost-effective, and appealing in
general.
Virtualization is fun.

Sun Tech Day 2007
i have alot of work , so cant join Aman for the session on DTrace.
The session almost done , when i arrived . But i have oppportunity to talk and share some info with Alex Peng , kernel devel from China
checking some blogs from sun ppl ..damned cool ..especially Liang Chen and Nasser Nouri.
p/s concentrate on DTrace after this ...Dtrace toolkit awesome

like ihsan said = wasting my talent !
1. i want to be engineer not handling user and entertain user ..fark
2. i dont want to waste my time , wasting my energy , and also ...i dont wanna waste my talent ...period
I ask myself frequently regarding this job ...
Is this what i want ?
Is this what i chase in my career path?
Is this what i need to explore ?
I'm happy with Maxis ..though the job is so tough , i dont care ..as long as it not involving dumb user ..fark
I prefer stayback in datacenter ..rather than serving dumb farking user ..period !

What a day ...still learning the process and machines
Alot of things i had to brush up , including HP machines and console thingy
last week , i got my own laptop from HP . Model nc6400
it have 2 gig centrino duo processor and 2 gig RAM
damned great ..i can make full use on this machine ...but i love my Mac more ( if my girl saw this statement , i want she knows that i love her so much )
i will start work on Tuesday onwards.
need a break later on ...i confident that not many staff in the office , this week ..ahaks

claimed for MC and rest until 7 o'clock.
told Kevin that i'm won't coming for work last nite ..
tonite ..i dont know how i can survive :(

MacFest - a knowledge sharing about Mac
It is an opportunity for me to meet more Mac-user in this event ...some of them are already devoted to Mac...i'm just switched to Mac ...couple of months ago ..keep learning on Mac stuff
cant wait for next event ...perhaps more tips will be give away on any relevent topic ..

I'm lost in my searching ..
i try to seek Maxis building ..and the result = none
unable to find .. even Maxis van ..damned !
need to wait for fuadi for this trip ..next monday ..

checking kernel parameter in HP-UX
using some simple command to do it ===> /stand/system
lucky , Tee teach me to use command kmtune , to grab more info's on the kernel
need spend more time on HP-UX machines ...10 months not handle the machine , since i left HP .
hehehhe

First task in Maxis - insert SCSI harddisk into EVA storage
huhu..never done the task , because i'm merely for UNIX OS .,but not for SAN storage.
Good start for me , as well., though it is simple task for me .
alot of hands-on after 1-2 months . furthermore., i just got my ID login in Maxis.
later on ..need to go for certification HP-UX.

Went to Kepong Datacenter
I never been to datacenter, since i left ESS ( my first company ).
In Kepong , I saw all hi-range server , such as Sun Fire T2000, HP Integrity Superdome, IBM e-Server and many more.
damned ! I love this environment ...working with machines ..and troubleshoot it with my own hand. Huhu
Some more ., lots of storage appliance , i will handle all of it ..huhu...This is my golden opportunity to grab and learn all those .

New job at Maxis - UNIX engineer
It is a hard decision for me , to go to Maxis because i wanted to be a Shell permanent.But i found that it's too difficult to go for permanent . Need 2 years being FTC before converted to permanent
I have to moved to Maxis , because i need to upgrade my skillz in storage and handle alots of UNIX hardware such as Sun Fire T2000 and HP Integrate Superdome. Some more ..i will handle storage appliance like HP StorageWorks and EMC² . End-to-end support.
I agreed that my salary is not very high ..but experience is a must. Previously., i never done such task like deploy, install or troubleshoot in any hardware in my company . And now .. i will do that and experiencing it myself.
insya Allah, i will serve my company with all of my experience i got and being more responsible .

My new mission for 2007
- buy a new Civic - need more sacrifice especially on moo-laa
- learn more knowledge on Mac OS X
- being a permanent in my company.
- being more caring for my bebe.
- simplify things ,especially in shell scripting and solaris
- projects and research for my mini-datacenter
p.s Insya Allah .. i will try to working hard and also working smart for all the mission above.
by hook or by crook , mission need to be accomplish
