Work: 1-Jul-2008

I started imaging the window machines in Superior, as of right now it will take roughly 6 hours to complete so I will look into it tomorrow and verify that it worked.
Askel has been having a problem recently where it starts to chug after a few days. James asked me to look into it and it appears that the Apache processes are grabbing up all the available memory, if apache is restarted the problem goes away. I surmise that it is PHP that is yanking all the memory. As a stop gap, I lowered the allowed memory per process for PHP from 8M to 4M. I will be checking up on usage over the next week or so.
I was also made aware (yesterday) that the script I wrote to scrape the weeks entries from this blog and email a digest to my boss wasn’t working. The cron job I had set up to run it, was on a machine that was recently decommisioned and not on one of our servers (as it should’ve been).
