1. Copy existing interface to new interface.

cp /etc/hostname.ce0 /etc/hostname.ce0:1

2. Edit the new hosntaname file and change the old hostname to the new one.

Example: server-ce0 to server-ce0-v1

3. Use the ifconfig plumb option to create the new interface.

ifconfig ce0:1 plumb

4. Assign the IP Address to the new interface.

ifconfig ce0:1 10.35.129.134 netmask 255.255.255.128 up

5. Verify interface is up and functional.

ifconfig -a

ce0:1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2

inet 10.35.129.134 netmask ffffff80 broadcast 10.255.255.255

6. Add new IP Address to /etc/hosts

<10.35.129.134        server-ce0-v1

To delete the interface:

ifconfig ce0:1 unplumb

If you install Fedora 11 and find that your X11 display is less than ideal (as in it won’t do better than 800×600) run:

Xorg -configure :1

as root to create a new default xorg.conf.new in /root.

Run ‘X -config /root/xorg.conf.new’ to test the new config. If the display sizes properly, copy it to /etc/X11 and overwrite the existing xorg.conf. This was the only fix I needed in do in order to get a clean install of Fedora 11 going.

If moving a host to a new VMware vCenter Server produces this error:
Failed to install the VirtualCenter Agent service.
Login failed due to a bad username or password.

Do this at the host:
service mgmt-vmware restart

So, your company has been acquired. If climbing inside an escape pod and jettisoning your self into deep space is not an option, here is a list of things to expect:

• An order will be made to lower your firewalls and surrender your servers.
• You will be assimilated.  Resistance will only slow the process down.
• Assimilation is a means of adding or replacing spent drones.
• The Borg have no feeling, no emotion, no individual thought.
• Each Borg is part of a giant subspace communications network called Exchange Server.
• All communication is transmitted to the entire Collective via a process entitled Carbon Copy.
• Your present function and title is irrelevant.
• Strength is irrelevant.
• Negotiation is irrelevant.
• Freedom is irrelevant.
• Self-determination is irrelevant.
• Your life as it had been is over.
• From this time forward, you will service them.
• Your culture will adapt to service them.
• They will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to their own.
• Resistance is, and always has been, futile.
• You will become one with the Borg.
