![]() As such, I had a stupid little script I wrote to create a VM, then immediately delete it. Loading up our staging environment with VM creates/deletes seemed to increase the frequency of the bug. It’s been an evasive bug that only seems to trigger after/during a bunch of activity (due to a race condition in the sync process). For the last few weeks (err, months?) at work, we’ve been banging our head against a bug in OpenStack Icehouse (something to do with the sync function in the NSX plugin for Neutron and/or our Akanda router). Since my world these days revolves around OpenStack, an obvious first target is our DreamCompute OpenStack cluster. If you really care about the internals, you can read more on this site: It has 3 major states, each that triggers an electronic signal:ĭue to the simplicity of this thing, there isn’t much need for me to go into more detail. I needed to toss my hat into this ring!įirst, a quick overview of this deceptively simple piece of hardware. Also, Hollywood has trained us to recognize the big red button as some sort of interface for something more remote (launching rockets, setting off alarms in a compound, etc.). I’ve read about some people making it a kill switch for their computer(s), but that seems kinda lame to me (there is another button that is usually less red but does the same exact thing we call it the power button…). I am, however, inspired by the simplicity and tactile interface of the Big Red Button. I honestly have not even looked at what it is supposed to do as it comes from the manufacturer (mostly because they only officially support Windows and I only run Linux). ![]() For Christmas, I got a USB Big Red Button.
