Hi List,
for those who might be interested (or were frustrated with this;), a couple
of things to note re: this post, which probably ends it; and before midnight.
DIASER now really does install on Ubuntu server 9.10 and LTS nodes without
extra Perl modules - you can throw the installer (from anything - with a few
extra Perl modules) at three distinct IP addresses. So far so good on my
Ubuntu cloud test box.
This was the original brief posted Sat, May 19, 2007:
"Protocol name:
DIAP - Distributed Internet Archive Protocol. Also see Long-Term Archive
Service Requirements RFC4810 and Long-term Archive Protocol (LTAP) I-D. I
have yet to fully study the above documents but have read some - they are
very detailed so it will take some more time to reference these and other
RFC's and I-D's I have yet to find."
Recently moved to LTASP, Long-Term Archive Storage Protocol (I think this
makes much more sense).
Abstract:
"Long-term archiving storage fundamentally begins with archive data
Accumulation, then Replication and then Management. Using A->R->M, LTASP has
been created to solve mid-range and below, long-term archiving requirements
of the small-medium enterprise. Where tape has been deployed in the past,
LTASP now offers an alternative solution designed to be more robust and
manageable in the long term than network attached storage devices or simple
disk storage alone."

I'll be switching on a SF tracker fo0r bugs this week.
Cheers Damian
