TS7680 ProtecTIER Deduplication for the Mainframe
Visits (17065)
Continuing my drawn out coverage of IBM's big storage launch of February 9, today I'll cover the IBM System Storage TS7680 ProtecTIER data deduplication gateway for System z.
On the host side, TS7680 connects to mainframe systems running z/OS or z/VM over FICON attachment, emulating an automated tape library with 3592-J1A devices. The TS7680 includes two controllers that emulate the 3592 C06 model, with 4 FICON ports each. Each controller emulates up to 128 virtual 3592 tape drives, for a total of 256 virtual drives per TS7680 system. The mainframe sees up to 1 million virtual tape cartridges, up to 100GB raw capacity each, before compression. For z/OS, the automated library has full SMS Tape and Integrated Library Management capability that you would expect.
Inside, the two control units are both connected to a redundant pair cluster of ProtecTIER engines running the HyperFactor deduplication algorithm that is able to process the deduplication inline, as data is ingested, rather than post-process that other deduplication solutions use. These engines are similar to the TS7650 gateway machines for distributed systems.
On the back end, these ProtecTIER deduplication engines are then connected to external disk, up to 1PB. If you get 25x data deduplication ratio on your data, that would be 25PB of mainframe data stored on only 1PB of physical disk. The disk can be any disk supported by ProtecTIER over FCP protocol, not just the IBM System Storage DS8000, but also the IBM DS4000, DS5000 or IBM XIV storage system, various models of EMC and HDS, and of course the IBM SAN Volume Controller (SVC) with all of its supported disk systems.Here is the [Announcement Letter]

Cover-Up is Worse than the Original Crime
Comment (1) Visits (17000)
On my last blog post [Is this what HDS tells our mainframe clients?], I poked fun at Hu Yoshida's blog post that contained a graphic with questionable results. Suddenly, the blog post disappeared altogether. Poof! Gone!
Just so that I am not accused of taking a graph out of context, here is Hu's original post, in its entirety:
At this point, you might be wondering: "If Hu Yoshida deleted his blog post, how did Tony get a copy of it? Did Tony save a copy of the HTML source before Hu deleted it?" No. I should have, in retrospect, in case lawyers got involved. It turns out that deleting a blog post does not clear the various copies in various RSS Feed Reader caches. I was able to dig out the previous version from the vast Google repository. (Many thanks to my friends at Google!!!).
The graph itself was hosted separately has been deleted, but it was just taken from slide 10 of the HDS presentation [How to Apply the Latest Advances in Hitachi Mainframe Storage], so it was easy to recreate.
(Lesson to all bloggers: If you write a blog post, and later decide to remove it for whatever legal, ethical, moral reasons, it is better to edit the post to remove offending content, and add a comment that the post was edited, and why. Shrinking a 700-word article down to 'Sorry Folks - I decided to remove this blog post because...' would do the trick. This new edited version will then slowly propagate across to all of the RSS Feed Reader caches, eliminating most traces to the original. Of course, the original may have been saved by any number of your readers, but at least if you have an edited version, it can serve as the official or canonical version.)
Perhaps there was a reason why HDS did not want to make public the FUD its sales team use in private meetings with IBM mainframe clients. Whatever it was, this appears to be another case where the cover-up is worse than the original crime!

New Laptop - File Transfer on Day 2
Visits (16992)
Continuing my saga regarding my [New Laptop], I managed on [Wednesday afternoon] to prepare my machine with separate partitions for programs and data. I was hoping to wrap things up on day 2 (Thursday), but nothing went smoothly.
Just before leaving late Wednesday evening, I thought I would try running the "Migration Assistant" overnight by connecting the two laptops with a REGULAR Ethernet cable. The instructions indicated that in "most" cases, two laptops can be connected using a regular "patch cord" cable. These are the kind everyone has, the connects their laptop to the wall socket for wired connection to the corporate intranet, or their personal computers to their LAN hubs at home. Unfortunately, the connection was not recognized, so I suspected that this was one of the exceptions not covered.
(There are two types of Ethernet cables. The ["patch cord"] connects computers to switches. The ["crossover" cable] connects like devices, such as computers to computers, or switches to switches. Four years ago, I used a crossover cable to transfer my files over, and assumed that I would need one this time as well.)
Thursday morning, I borrowed a crossover cable from a coworker. It was bright pink and only about 18 inches long, just enough to have the two laptops side by side. If the pink crossover cable were any shorter, the two laptops would be back to back. I kept the old workstation in the docking station, which allowed it to remain connected to my big flat screen, mouse, keyboard and use the docking stations RJ45 to connect to the corporate intranet. That left the RJ45 on the left side of the old system to connect via crossover cable to the new system. But that didn't work, of course, because the docking station overrides the side port, so we had to completely "undock" and go native laptop to laptop.
Restarting the Migration Assistant, I unplug the corporate intranet cable from the old laptop, put one end of the pink cable into each Ethernet port of each laptop. On the new system, Migration Assistant asks to setup a password and provides an IP address like 169.254.aa.bb with a netmask of 255.255.0.0 and I am supposed to type this IP address over on the old system for it to reach out and connect. It still didn't connect. We tried a different pink crossover cable, no luck. My colleague Harley brought over his favorite "red" crossover cable, that he has used successfully many times, but still didn't work. The helpful diagnostic advice was to disable all firewall programs from one or both systems.
I disabled Symantec Client Firewall on both systems. Still not working. I even tried booting both systems up in "safe" mode, using MSCONFIG to set the reboot mode as "safe with networking" as the key option. Still not working. At this point, I was afraid that I would have to use the alternate approach, which was to connect both systems to our corporate 100 Mbps system, which would be painfully slow. I only have one active LAN cable in my office, so the second computer would have to sit outside in the lobby.
Looking at the IP address on the old system, it was 9.11.xx.yy, assigned by our corporate DHCP, so not even in the same subnet of the new computer. So, I created profiles on ThinkVantage Access Connections on both systems, with 192.168.0.yy netmask 255.255.255.0 on the old system, and 192.168.0.bb on the new system. This worked, and a connection between the two systems was finally recognized.
Since I had 23GB of system files and programs on my old C: drive, and 80GB of data on my old D: drive, I didn't think I would run out of space on my new 40GB C: drive and 245GB D: drive, but it did! The Migration Assistant wanted to my D:\Documents on my new C: drive and refused to continue. I had to turn off D:\Documents from the list so that it could continue, processing only the programs and system settings on C: drive. It took 61 minutes to scan 23GB on my C: drive, identify 12,900 files to move, representing 794MB of data. Seriously? Less than 1GB of data moved!
It then scanned all of the programs I had on my old system, and decided that there were none that needed to be moved or installed on the new system. The closing instructions explained there might be a few programs that need to be manually installed, and some data that needed to be transferred manually.
Given the performance of Migration Assistant, I decided to just setup a direct Network Mapping of the new D: drive as Y: on my old system, and just drag and drop my entire folder over. Even at 1000 Mbps, this still took the rest of the day. I also backed up C:\Program Files using [System Rescue CD] to my external USB drive, and restored as D:\prog-files, just in case. In retrospect, I realize it would have been faster just to have dumped my D: drive to my USB drive, and restore it on the new system.
I'll leave the process of re-installing missing programs for Friday.

Upcoming Storage Events - Spring 2013
Comments (2) Visits (16935)
Here are some upcoming events related to IBM Storage!
If you sell IBM and/or Oracle solutions, please join me for IBM Oracle Virtual University 2013!
A few weeks ago, I recorded a session on IBM Storage: Overview, Positioning and How to Sell that will be available on demand starting tomorrow, February 26th, at the IBM Oracle Virtual University 2013.
It's one of 65 new sessions that will help IBM to surround Oracle applications with IBM infrastructure, services and industry solutions. Oracle software, after all, runs best on IBM hardware. Other highlights of Oracle Virtual University include a live executive State of the Alliance session with Q&A, Oracle keynote, updates by Oracle product managers, sessions on PureSystems, Selling IBM into an Oracle environment, Cloud, and much more.
Visit the [Orace Virtual University 2013 Registration page] to register.
(Update: For employees of IBM, Oracle and their respective business partners, the replays for this event is available until Feb 26, 2014. Visit the [Orace Virtual University 2013 Replay page])
There will be live technical teams on hand throughout launch day to answer your questions in real time, so I hope you can carve out 30 minutes or more on February 26th to take advantage of these available resources.
After helping launch the first Pulse back in 2008, I have sadly not been back since. Last year, I was invited to attend as a last-minute replacement for another speaker, but I was busy [having emergency surgery].
This year's [Pulse 2013] conference looks amazing. It will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada. Guest Speaker Payton Manning, NFL 4-time MVP football player, and Carrie Underwood, 6-time Grammy award winner, join IBM's Software Group executives and experts on how IBM Tivoli can help optimize your IT infrastructure.
Sadly, once again, I will not be there at Pulse. This time, I will be on the East Coast visiting clients instead, but my on-premise correspondent, Tom Rauchut, has informed me that he will be there. Hopefully, he will provide me something to write about.
Later in March, I will be in Brussels, Belgium for the Storage Expo. This is held March 20-21, at the Brussels-Expo venue. I will be presenting several topics each day, as well as visit clients in the area. This event comes on behalf of IBM Belgium in association with IBM Business Partner IRIS-ICT.
If you plan to participate in any of these events, let me know!

Backup Options for IBM PureData System for Analytics, powered by Netezza
Visits (16802)
March 31 is [World Backup Day]!
Recently, a client asked how to backup their IBM PureData System for Analytics devices. IBM had [acquired Netezza in November 2010], and later renamed their TwinFin devices as the IBM PureData for Analytics, powered by Netezza.
The [IBM PureData System for Analytics] is incredibly fast for performing deep, ad-hoc analytics. However, the people who use them are "data scientists", not backup experts.
Likewise, there are backup administrators who may not be familiar with the unique characteristics of this expert-integrated system to know what backup options are available.
As with the rest of the IBM PureSystems line, the IBM PureData System for Analytics (or, PDA for short) has a combination of servers, storage and switches inside.
In a full-frame PDA, there are two servers in Active/Passive mode, these coordinate activity to FPGA-based blade servers, which have parallel access to hundreds of disk drives, storing nearly 200 TB of compressed database data. A system can span up to four frames.
But what do you backup? And why? You don't need to worry about backing up the Linux operating system or NPS server code, that is considered firmware and if anything every got corrupted, IBM would help restore it for you. System-wide metadata, such as the host catalog and global users, groups, and permissions should be backed up periodically to protect against data corruption.
There are a number of reasons to backup your user databases:
The PDA has three backup formats. You can backup the entire user database in compressed format, backup individual tables in compressed format, or export to a text-format file.
Compressed format is faster, but can only be restored to the same PDA, or a PDA that has the same or higher level of NPS firmware. The text-format is slower, but can be used to restore to lower levels of NPS firmware, or to other database systems.
There are basically two methods to backup your PDA. The first is called the "Filesystem" method. Basically, you can attach an external storage device to the NPS server, and use the built-in command line interface (CLI) to store the backups onto its file system.
You may find that your databases are so large, they will exceed the limits of the filesystem on the external storage device. For SAN or NAS deployments, I recommend the IBM Storwize V7000 Unified with IBM General Parallel File System (GPFS). However, if you are using something else, you may need to use the "nz_backup" scripts provided which split up the backup images into smaller pieces that most other filesystems can handle.
The PDA comes with 10GbE Ethernet ports that you can attach a NAS storage device over a Local Area Network (LAN), or add Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) ports and connect over a Storage Area Network (SAN). To keep things simple, I will refer to whichever network you decide as the "Backup Network" in the drawings.
The second method for backup is called the "External Backup Software" method. As you have probably guessed, it involves sending the backups to a supported software product like IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (or, TSM for short).
In this case, the PDA acts as a client node, similar to a laptop, desktop, or application server with internal disk. Backup data is sent over the LAN to the designated TSM server, and the TSM server in turn writes over the SAN to its storage hierarchy of disk, virtual tape and/or physical tape resources.
Backups can be done by command "on demand", or automated on a schedule. For the /nz/data directory, direct the nzhostbackup command to send the backup copy to local disk, then use TSM's dsmc archive command to transfer this backup copy to the TSM server.
For nzbackup with the users or db parameters, you can send the data directly to the appropriate TSM server by specifying the connector and connectorArgs parameters.
To reduce traffic on the TSM Server, an intermediary "TSM Proxy Node" can be put in between. In this case, the PDA sends the backup to the Proxy Node, the Proxy Node uses a "LAN Free Storage Agent" to send the backups directly to the virtual tape and/or physical tape, and then notifies the TSM Server to updates its system catalog to record which tape holds these new backups.
Another configuration involves installing the TSM LAN Free storage agent directly on the PDA. While this will require FCP ports to be added and consume more CPU resources on the NPS server, it eliminates most of the LAN traffic, allowing the PDA to send its backups directly to virtual or physical tape.
To learn more about this, see my full presentation [Backup Options: IBM PureData System for Analytics, powered by Netezza] on the IBM Expert Network powered by SlideShare, or attend the upcoming [IBM Edge 2014] conference in Las Vegas, May 19-23. I will be there!

Well, it's Tuesday again, and you know what that means! IBM Announcements!
Today also happens to be [Election Day] in the United States, and some have questioned IBM's logic of making major storage announcements on Election Day. During the campaigns, a major theme was to help Small and Medium size businesses, because these are the engines of economic growth and improved employment.
To tie in with this Election Day theme, all of today's [storage announcements are designed for Small and Medium size business workloads]! Whether you want to [Move Forward] with new features and functions to help transform your business for the future; [Live Free] with improved flexibility and ease-of-use for your storage infrastructure; adopt a more [Green and Envi
Hopefully, you all saw today's Launch Webcast on these announcements, but in case you missed it, waiting in line at the polling station to cast your vote, or caught without electricity or Internet access from [Superstorm Sandy], it is now available [On-Demand].
Here is a quick recap:
Whether you are a midsize business looking to expand, or a large enterprise with midsize workloads, these products could be just the right solution for you! To learn more, see the [November 6th Storage Announcement Landing Page].

Laptop for Grandma - Low-RAM operating systems
Visits (16738)
Continuing my series on a [Laptop for Grandma], I thought I would pursue some of the "low-RAM" operating system choices. Grandma's Thinkpad R31 has only 384MB of RAM.
All of the ones below are based on Linux. For those who aren't familiar with installing or running the Linux operating system, here are some helpful tips:
While I am a big fan of SUSE, Red Hat, and Ubuntu, these all require more RAM than available on grandma's laptop. Here are some Low-RAM alternatives I tried:
All three of these ran on grandma's Thinkpad R31, and all three could play MP3 music. However, I was concerned that they were not as simple to use as grandma would like, and I would be concerned the amount of time and effort I might have to spend if things go wrong.

Storage Hypervisor integration with VMware
Visits (16699)
Over on the Tivoli Storage Blog, there is an exchange over the concept of a "Storage Hypervisor". This started with fellow IBMer Ron Riffe's blog post [Enabling Private IT for Storage Cloud -- Part I], with a promise to provide parts 2 and 3 in the next few weeks. Here's an excerpt:
Then another IBM blogger, Richard Vining, continued this meme with his post [VMware Data Protection with a Storage Hypervisor]. There are [different meanings for the word "protect"], but Richard's usage relates to protecting against unexpected loss. Here's an excerpt:
At this point, you might scratch your head and ask "Does this Storage Hypervisor exist, or is this just a theoretical exercise?" The answer of course is "Yes, it does exist!" Just like VMware offers vSphere and vCenter, IBM offers block-level disk virtualization through the SAN Volume Controller(SVC) and Storwize V7000 products, with a full management support from Tivoli Storage Productivity Center Standard Edition.
SVC has supported every release of VMware since the 2.5 version. IBM is the leading reseller of VMware, so it makes sense for IBM and VMware development to collaborate and make sure all the products run smoothly together. SVC presents volumes that can be formatted for VMFS file system to hold your VMDK files, accessible via FCP protocol. IBM and VMware have some key synergies:
But unlike tools that work only with VMware, IBM's storage hypervisor works with a variety of server virtualization technologies, including Microsoft Hyper-V, Xen, OracleVM, Linux KVM, PowerVM, z/VM and PR/SM. This is important, as a recent poll on the Hot Aisle blog indicates that [44 percent run 2 or more server hypervisors]!
For a set of best practices combining VMware with SVC, check out this IBM Redpaper titled [VMware Proof of Practice and Performance Guidelines on the SAN Volume Controller].
Join the conversation! The virtual dialogue on this topic will continue in a [live group chat] this Friday, September 23, 2011 from 12 noon to 1pm EDT. Join me and about 20 other top storage bloggers, key industry analysts and IBM Storage subject matter experts to discuss storage hypervisors and get questions answered about improving your private storage environment.

Hu Yoshida Does It Again
Visits (16623)
Last week, in Computer Technology Review's article [Tiering: Scale Up? Scale Out? Do Both], Mark Ferelli interviews fellow blogger Hu Yoshida, CTO of Hitachi Data Systems (HDS). Here's an excerpt:
This is not the first time I have had to correct Hu and others of misperceptions of IBM's SAN Volume Controller (SVC). This month marks my four year "blogoversary", and I seem to spend a large portion of my blogging time setting the record straight. Here are just a few of my favorite posts setting the record straight on SVC back in 2007:
Since day 1, SAN Volume Controllers has focused primarily on external storage. Initially, the early models had just battery-protected DRAM cache memory, but the most recent model of the SVC, the 2145-CF8, adds support for internal SLC NAND flash solid state drives. To fully appreciate how SVC can help improve the performance of the disks that are managed, I need to use some visual aids.
In this example, the SVC reduced the burden of the managed disk from 100,000 IOPS down to 55,000, which is 35,000 reads and 20,000 writes. Some have argued against putting one level of cache (SVC) in front of another level of cache (managed disk arrays). However, CPU processor designers have long recognized the value of hierarchical cache with L1, L2, L3 and sometimes even L4 caches. The cache-hits on SVC are faster than most disk system's cache-hits.
Of course, not all workloads are 70/30/50, and not every disk array is driven to its maximum capability, so your mileage may vary. As we slide down the left of the curve where things are flatter, the improvement in performance lowers.
Hitachi's offerings, including the HDS USP-V, USP-VM and their recently announced Virtual Storage Platform (VSP) sold also by HP under the name P9500, have similar architecture to the SVC and can offer similar benefits, but oddly the Hitachi engineers have decided to treat externally attached storage as second-class citizens instead. Hu mentions data that "ages out or becomes less active we can move it to the external storage." IBM has chosen not to impose this "caste" system onto its design of the SAN Volume Controller.
The SVC has been around since 2003, before the USP-V came to market, and has sold over 20,000 SVC nodes over the past seven years. The SVC can indeed improve performance of managed disk systems, in some cases by a substantial amount. The 0.06 msec latency on read-miss requests represents less than 1 percent of total performance in production workloads. SVC nearly always improves performance, and in the worst case, provides same performance but with added functionality and flexibility. For the most part, the performance boost comes as a delightful surprise to most people who start using the SVC.

Why Not Miles Per Hour ?
Comments (5) Visits (16590)
Perhaps I wrapped up my exploration of disk system performance one day too early. (While it is Friday here in Malaysia, it is still only Thursday back home)
Barry Burke, EMC blogger (aka The Storage Anarchist) writes:
Aren't you mixing metrics here?
This is a fair question, Barry, so I will try to address it here.
It was not a typo, I did mean MPG (miles per gallon) and not MPH (miles per hour). It is always challenging to find an analogy that everyone can relate to explain concepts in Information Technology that might be harder to grasp. I chose MPG because it was closely related to IOPS and MB/s in four ways:
It seemed that if I was going to explain why standardized benchmarks were relevant, I should find an analogy that has similar features to compare to. I thought about MPH, since it is based on time units like IOPS and MB/s, butdecided against it based on an earlier comment you made, Barry, about NASCAR:
Let's imagine that a Dodge Charger wins the overwhelming majority of NASCAR races. Would that prove that a stock Charger is the best car for driving to work, or for a cross-country trip?
Your comparison, Barry, to car-racing brings up three reasons why I felt MPH is a bad metric to use for an analogy:
You also mention, Barry, the term "efficiency" but mileage is about "fuel economy".Wikipedia is quick to point out that the fuel efficiency of petroleum engines has improved markedly in recent decades, this does not necessarily translate into fuel economy of cars. The same can be said about the performance of internal bandwidth ofthe backplane between controllers and faster HDD does not necessarily translate to external performance of the disk system as a whole. You correctly point this out in your blog about the DMX-4:
Complementing the 4Gb FC and FICON front-end support added to the DMX-3 at the end of 2006, the new 4Gb back-end allows the DMX-4 to support the latest in 4Gb FC disk drives.
This also explains why the IBM DS8000, with its clever "Adaptive Replacement Cache" algorithm, has such highSPC-1 benchmarks despite the fact that it still uses 2Gbps drives inside. Given that it doesn't matter between2Gbps and 4Gbps on the back-end, why would it matter which vendor came first, second or third, and why call it a "distant 3rd" for IBM? How soon would IBM need to announce similar back-end support for it to be a "close 3rd" in your mind?
I'll wrap up with you're excellent comment that Watts per GB is a typical "green" metric. I strongly support the whole"green initiative" and I used "Watts per GB" last month to explain about how tape is less energy-consumptive than paper.I see on your blog you have used it yourself here:
The DMX-3 requires less Watts/GB in an apples-to-apples comparison of capacity and ports against both the USP and the DS8000, using the same exact disk drives
It is not clear if "requires less" means "slightly less" or "substantially less" in this context, and have no facts from my own folks within IBM to confirm or deny it. Given that tape is orders of magnitude less energy-consumptive than anything EMC manufacturers today, the point is probably moot.
I find it refreshing, nonetheless, to have agreed-upon "energy consumption" metrics to make such apples-to-apples comparisons between products from different storage vendors. This is exactly what customers want to do with performance as well, without necessarily having to run their own benchmarks or work with specific storage vendors. Of course, Watts/GB consumption varies by workload, so to make such comparisons truly apples-to-apples, you would need to run the same workload against both systems. Why not use the SPC-1 or SPC-2 benchmarks to measure the Watts/GB consumption? That way, EMC can publish the DMX performance numbers at the same time as the energy consumption numbers, and then HDS can follow suit for its USP-V.
I'm on my way back to the USA soon, but wanted to post this now so I can relax on the plane.

Eleven Answers about Deduplication from IBM

EMC Failure Brings Down State of Virginia
Visits (16562)
I'm down here in Australia, where the government is a bit stalled for the past two weeks at the moment, known formally as being managed by the [Caretaker government]. Apparently, there is a gap between the outgoing administration and the incoming administration, and the caretaker government is doing as little as possible until the new regime takes over. They are still counting votes, including in some cases dummy ballots known as "donkey votes", the Australian version of the hanging chad. Three independent parties are also trying to decide which major party they will support to finalize the process.
While we are on the topic of a government stalled, I feel bad for the state of Virginia in the United States. Apparently, one of their supposedly high-end enterprise class EMC Symmetrix DMX storage systems, supporting 26 different state agencies in Virginia, crashed on August 25th and now more than a week later, many of those agencies are still down, including the Department of Motor Vehicles and the Department of Taxation and Revenue.
Many of the articles in the press on this event have focused on what this means for the reputation of EMC. Not surprisingly, EMC says that this failure is unprecedented, but really this is just one in a long series of failures from EMC. It reminds me of the last time EMC had a public failure with a dual-controller CLARiiON a few months ago that stopped another company from their operations. There is nothing unique in the physical equipment itself, all IT gear can break or be taken down by some outside force, such as a natural disaster. The real question, though, is why haven't EMC and the State Government been able to restore operations many days after the hardware was fixed?
In the Boston Globe, Zeus Kerravala, a data storage analyst at Yankee Group in Boston, is quoted as saying that such a high-profile breakdown could undermine EMC's credibility with large businesses and government agencies. "I think it's extremely important for them,'' said Kerravala. "When you see a failure of this magnitude, and their inability to get a customer like the state of Virginia up and running almost immediately, all companies ought to look at that and raise their eyebrows.''
Was the backup and disaster recovery solution capable of the scale and service level requirements needed by vital state agencies? Had they tested their backups to ensure they were running correctly, and had they tested their recovery plans? Were they monitoring the success of recent backup operations?
Eventually, the systems will be back up and running, fines and penalties will be paid, and perhaps the guy who chose to go with EMC might feel bad enough to give back that new set of golf clubs, or whatever ridiculously expensive gift EMC reps might offer to government officials these days to influence the purchase decision making process.
(Note: I am not accusing any government employee in particular working at the state of Virginia of any wrongdoing, and mention this only as a possibility of what might have happened. I am sure the media will dig into that possibility soon enough during their investigations, so no sense in me discussing that process any further.)
So what lessons can we learn from this?

Implementing LUKS encryption on your Linux laptop
Visits (16453)
In my last blog post [Full Disk Encryption for Your Laptop] explained my decisions relating to Full-Disk Encryption (FDE) for my laptop. Wrapping up my week's theme of Full-Disk Encryption, I thought I would explain the steps involved to make it happen.
Last April, I switched from running Windows and Linux dual-boot, to one with Linux running as the primary operating system, and Windows running as a Linux KVM guest. I have Full Disk Encryption (FDE) implemented using Linux Unified Key Setup (LUKS).
Here were the steps involved for encrypting my Thinkpad T410:

IBM Announces zEnterprise EC12 mainframe server
Visits (16327)
Well it's Tuesday again, and you know what that means! IBM Announcements!
For nearly 50 years, IBM has been leading the IT industry with its mainframe servers. Today, IBM announced its 12th generation mainframe in its [System z product family], the IBM zEnterprise EC12, or zEC12 for short. I joined IBM in 1986, and my first job was to work on DFHSM for the MVS operating system. The product is now known as DFSMShsm as part of the Data Facility Storage Management System, and the operating systems went through several name changes: MVS/ESA, OS/390, and lately z/OS. I was the lead architect for DFSMS up until 2001. I then switched to be part of the team that brought Linux to the mainframe. Both of these experiences come in handy as I deal with mainframe storage clients at the Tucson Executive Briefing Center.
Let's take a look at some recent developments over the past few years.
If you currently have a z10 or z196, then it can be upgraded to zEC12. The zEC12 can attach to up to four zBX model 003 frames that can run AIX, Microsoft Windows and Linux-x86. If you currently have zBX model 002 frames, these can be upgraded to model 003.
The key enhancements reflect the three key initiatives:

Knocking Off Eight Items from the Bucket List
Comment (1) Visits (16283)
Last year, Mo and I traveled down alongside the Mississippi river, attempting to cover [Eight States in Eight Days], but ended up covering [Seven States in Nine Days]. This time, we decided to go overseas, to knock off a few items from her [bucket list].
I would like to thank Delta Air Lines for letting Mo and I take this trip using frequent flyer miles, Hertz Rental Cars for offering a sweet deal on a tiny Hyundai i20 car, the Gran Hotel Benahavis for their hospitality, and the incredibly warm and helpful people of Atlanta. I am glad that my language skills in French, Spanish and Arabic came in quite handy!

Cottage Grove junior Madison McClung began last week with a walking boot on her foot and doubts that she could compete at the Sky-Em League district track and field meet.
�I did not think I�d be here,� McClung said after winning the district title in the 100 meters at Junction City High School last weekend. �I was hoping, but this is way more than I expected, which is really good.�
McClung�s season was in doubt after she suffered an Achilles� injury at the Springfield Invitational last month when she made a misstep during the high jump competition.
�I kind of thought she was done,� Cottage Grove coach Nathan Bridgens said. �I was planning on her not competing because she had been in a boot for three weeks, and I was not sure if she ran if it would act up again, so I did not want to risk that.�
The only workout for McClung during her recovery was some slow pedaling on a bike. When McClung finally got the boot off a week ago, she was only able to do light workouts for two days.
�We didn�t want to risk injury again, so she did some light jogging and there was not much pain, so she said she�d give it a try at districts and we were lucky enough to have her,� Bridgens said.
McClung ran the fastest 100 qualifying heat in 13.24 seconds during the first day of district Thursday, but was unable to finish her heat in the 200.
�Thursday was the first day I could sprint again in four weeks,� she said. �During the 100 it started to hurt at the very end, and then in the 200 I made it only about 50 meters and I had problems, so I had to stop.�
Bridgens admitted he was concerned she might not be able to run Saturday, but the day off from competition Friday gave McClung a necessary rest. She returned to the track the next day and helped the Lions place third in the 4x100 relay before racing to the victory in the 100 in 12.86, finishing one-hundredth of a second ahead of Marist�s Christine Hinds.
�I thought her performance was amazing,� Bridgens said. �Being in a tight race like that, having not competed for three weeks and then pull out the win at districts in that fashion. She knew how important it was for our team to place high and she stepped up.�
McClung�s victory helped the Lions win the district title, barely ahead of Marist.
McClung heads to state this weekend with the fifth-fastest 100 time in 4A.
�I�m very excited because state is the best atmosphere for any sport, but I don�t want to get too excited because sometimes that causes you to mess up,� she said.
McClung has plenty of state experience, including a role as a key reserve on Cottage Grove�s girls basketball team that reached the state final this year before losing to La Pine.
Last year at the state track meet, McClung helped the Lions win the 4x100 relay at state and placed seventh in the high jump after winning the district title in that event.
�She can do a variety of events including the 400, 200, 100 and high jump. She�s a very good track and field athlete,� Bridgens said. �I think track is her best sport. She�s very talented.�
McClung has her sights set on state and beyond.
�I�m excited for next year to see if I can get a full year healthy,� she said. �We�ll see how that goes, but for now I�m good with this.�

Big Bud feminized seeds (Seed Stockers)
Big Bud does exactly what her name suggests – produces copious amounts of large, dense flowers covered in a thick layer of resin. Her Indica-dominant genetic lineage gives her users a long-lasting relaxation which soothes the body as well as the mind. Bringing in as much as 500 g/m² after a 9-week flowering period, Big Bud truly is a winner!

Big Bud: The Strain Of Champions
Big Bud is a feminized photoperiod cannabis strain created by Seed Stockers. This high-yielding cannabis strain was designed to deliver XL yields and her Indica-dominant genetic lineage means she creates large, dense flowers which are dripping in a pine-scented resin – perfect for cannabis extracts!
Excellent For Indoor Cultivation
Growing Bid Bud can be a bit overwhelming if you aren't used to growing high-yielding cannabis strains as they can easily grow out of control. This is more of a problem for indoor growers due to limitations on vertical space, therefore, training techniques such as topping and supercropping can be used alongside less stressful techniques such as defoliation to ideally create a wide, flat canopy. Indoor yields for this strain are 450 – 500 g/m2 while outdoor yields are closer to 600 g/plant. Here is some further information to help you grow this strain:
- Medium height – Big Bud reaches a final height of 1.2 – 1.6 m indoors and up to 2 m outdoors!
- Max EC of water – 1.6 in veg, up to 2.0 in flower.
- Water pH; 5.8 – 6.0
- Recommended lighting: Veg: 315 W CMH, Flower: 600W HPS
- Recommended nutrients: Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect® Connoisseur Bloom Part A&B.
Large, Dense Flowers
Big Bud has a very typical Indica-like appearance – she remains a medium height and grows very bushy. To maximize her pungent smell and taste, grow this strain in an entirely organic setup to ensure maximum terpene production leading to dense, resinous cannabis flowers with a delicious taste!

Incidentally this astral realm also contains many impostors of divinity, many false prophets, many so called sages that are ever willing to inspire or to give information to anyone that in anyway wants to channel information. There are thousands upon thousands upon thousands of deluded messiahs on these inner realms. People that have formally taken a religious path and think they have much to give, they pose as Christs, they pose as Krishnas, they pose as Masters of Wisdom, and they are quite happy to send streams of thoughts to anyone opening themselves up to those thoughts – more than happy. Very few people that receive channelled information, I hardly know of any, even with Edgar Cayce, some of his stuff was very good when it came to healing and not so good for some of his other impressions. Very few receive pure streams of thoughts from high Enlightened Beings. It's nearly always channelled from impostors masquerading as enlightened beings, because these channelers have not been trained to distinguish one from the other. They do it unconsciously they do it automatically; they do it through their own emotional bodies, through their own astral glaze, through their own minds. Very impure substance there immediately distorts and warps what is has seen, and even if they do see something clearly, then they often get these impostors giving them whatever these impostors wish to give them: UFO information, information on the Pleiadians, it doesn't matter, God…. And some of it is of nice quality because they are religionists and they have learnt something on the physical plane, they've learnt a little bit on this astral realm as well. But high truth? No.
There are imposters out there!

E26 and E25 have been learning about warm and cool colours in their X Block art sessions.
They have a really good understanding of this, as you can see from their work!
E26 and E25 have been learning about warm and cool colours in their X Block art sessions.
They have a really good understanding of this, as you can see from their work!
PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF DATE FOR THIS EVENT (now on Tuesday 17th December, not Thursday 19th as previously stated)
E26 (Year 7) will be holding the Presentation of Learning for their current expedition 'Over the Top!' on Tuesday 17th December, 5.30-6:30pm at XP East.
Students have been working extremely hard throughout their expedition and have been working on answering the guiding question: 'Does war unite or divide?'
This will be their first formal opportunity at XP East to share their learning with parents, carers and visitors and we very much look forward to seeing you there.
All this and more will be revealed at our STEAM Presentations of Learning on 10th and 11th July (click here for further information)
Family are invited to come along and find out from our student experts, but expect to be asked about your own learning!
In our STEAM lessons this week, Year 7 have been grappling with the concept of speed, distance and time. We have been using constructivist principles of learning to develop understanding, by kicking the week off with a practical investigation outside, measuring the time and distance travelled when we walk fast or slow.
We then discussed the relationships we could see in our data and some data generated from the 'Marbleympics' 5m sprint. We noticed that when the speed changes, the time and/or distance change and there is a direct relationship between this; ultimately we deduced the equation:
In today's session Explorer were applying this by substituting our own data, with the challenge being to use the equation in unfamiliar contexts – check out Faith's attempt at four of the challenge questions on the photos below! The level of engagement in this task was excellent, and not only did I have a lot of verbal praise to give individuals, as well as the class as a whole, but we also had a spontaneous round of applause! Zak was using purple pen to remind himself of how to improve his calculations next time, and Caiden and Sami got their heads together to see where they went wrong in their calculations and correct them.
We also tried out some new more flexible seating arrangements to support us in building our confidence; as we experiment we find we have different skills and qualities to offer one another in our problem solving and all students engaged really positively in the process. I loved Marshall's quote, particularly as he had rated his confidence at the beginning of the lesson as a 1 out of 3, but at the end of the lesson he said "this is a breeze now!"
Our learning focus this week has been to keep trying to get 'unstuck', even when we are grappling with something new or a concept we can't quite get our head around; at XP East it's all about getting to the top of the next 'mountain'. That's why we have a new quote on the wall from Carl Sagan:
"When you make the finding yourself, even if you're the last person on Earth to see the light, you'll never forget it".
Yesterday during community meeting Mrs Poncia asked X25 about their highlight of the week, and I amongst other members of my crew struggled to pick! We have just six weeks left of this academic year, it is wild to think how quickly my crew's first year at high school has passed and how much we've crammed into 2018-2019.
Both staff and students are winding up to the grand finale of the STEAM and Human expeditions, where they will be working on final products and preparing to share their learning in a presentation of learning. In STEAM, they are continuing on with 'Escape Earth' and yesterday their new Human expedition was announced.
On Tuesday X25 visited the Jodrell Bank Space Observatory, which is home to the UK's largest radio telescope and the 3rd largest in Europe! Each student was immersed in workshops and classes that allowed them to discover elements of our universe, experience Newton's Laws, and watch real accounts of the astronauts that visit the Space Station. I've uploaded the video file above, check out the incredible resources and facilities that we had access to!
We will be taking the lessons we learned from the specialists back into school to help answer the expeditions guiding question:
"Should humans leave Earth?"
With growing reports of the danger that climate change poses, and the scientific advancements in the technology that could allow us to potentially re-locate our species to another planet, X25 will be concluding what they think the future for our species and our home will be. I can't wait to hear their responses.
I chose the backing track for the video from an album I really love by a band called Public Service Broadcasting, I was struck by this line that was originally part of a JFK speech from 1962:
I'm taking this particular message back to crew this week. We will be encountering difficulty over the next six weeks with deadlines. We will be setting up Student Led Conferences over the coming weeks, to reflect on and review this years work. We will be finalising products and developing our presentations of learning. It may be the last few weeks, but as per every other day we spend at XP East, I hope that each of my 12 crew members recognises that despite this work being hard, it is also extremely important, and that working hard, getting smart and being kind is fundamental if we are to achieve.
E25 (Y7) students are in the middle of their current expedition, Escape Earth, exploring the guiding question: "Should humans leave Earth?"
Over the course of three case studies, they will have studied Earth's 'postcode' and position in the universe; the impact humans are having on the Earth today and the physics behind building and launching a rocket to leave Earth. They will be ready to share their learning with you on the following dates:
7 Pioneer: Wednesday 10th July, 5:30-6:30pm.
7 Explorer: Thursday 11th July, 5:30pm-6:30pm.
We look forward to seeing you and thank you for your continued support.
E25 will be on fieldwork on Tuesday 4th June.
Please make arrangements for your child to arrive at school no later than 7:45am and be collected around 5pm.
The fieldwork arrangements are as follows:
Many thanks for your support.
During our current STEAM expedition E25 were fortunate to meet three students from Tapton School in Sheffield who have built their own satellite! Emily, Emma and Sam visited us as experts for Case Study 1 of our Escape Earth expedition, as we have been looking at the structure of the universe, galaxies and our solar system.
In addition to their A Level studies at Tapton, our experts have taken part in a six month engineering project, run under the Engineering Education Scheme (EES) run by EDT and supported by an electronics company called ARM. They were given a microprocessor and a £200 budget, which they decided to use to build and program a small satellite. They had strict parameters to fit within and had to create something which would be viable in space. This took a great deal of planning, problem solving and research, as well as using Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, using a 3D printer for 19 hours during their residential at Sheffield Hallam University and showcasing their work at a Science Fair to industry experts.
E25 are well into Case Study 1 of our new STEAM expedition Escape Earth now and we are already looking ahead to our next fieldwork activity. This will be on Tuesday 4th June.
Please make arrangements for your child to arrive at school no later than 7:45am and be collected around 5pm.
The arrangements are as follows:
Many thanks for your support.
We are just coming to the end of our immersion activities, which included:
Our first case study, Our Place in the Universe, is just the beginning. Make sure to ask one of our students what they think so far!

Discussion The respiratory system is a complex system. The upper airways must remain patient. The lower airways must interface with the vascular system. The musculoskeletal system must provide mechanical function and the central nervous system must provide overall control. Respiratory failure occurs when the overall system cannot support the body's necessarily ventilation, oxygenation or both. Children are at higher risk of respiratory failure. They have few intrinsic lung parenchyma problems, but have very small airways that increase the airflow resistance by themselves but then have to contend with problems such as...

We read the original article by Suat Zengin et al.1 with interest. The use of ultrasound can be helpful in the diagnosis and treatment of what may be potentially reversible causes of cardiorespiratory arrest (pericardial tamponade, pneumothorax, pulmonary embolism, and hypovolemia),2 as long as it does not interrupt cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).3 These reversible conditions can also cause false pulseless electrical activity (PEA). Distinguishing between false and true PEA using ultrasound can contribute positively to patient outcome.

The food was amazing and we had excellent service!
Lovely place, the lasagna was better then the carmines one. The Moscow mule they served was one of the best ones I've had drank before. Amazing food, drinks and ambiance.
We ate at Coppola's before a concert at the Beacon. Great little restaurant with excellent food and service.
I have loved Coppola's for years, but after this experience I don't think I will return. Our server took our orders and delivered our bottle of wine, and that was the last we saw him. Also, the dish I normally order was only so-so. There are too many other good restaurants in New York.
Awful service. My husband and I felt like we were at a diner. Food was rushed. Waiter was nasty. My husband had a terrible chicken dish. We complained to management on our way out and they were very defensive. What an unprofessional place. Stay away.
Food and service were exceptional, we will continue to frequent. Thanks for the great meal and great service.
Lovely neighborhood restaurant.
Consistently good food and service.
I brought my cousins from out of town and they were very pleased .
Dine here regularly with many friends.
Really liked this cozy Italian on the UWS...we went right after a show at The Beacon so it's a perfect spot for an after-show bite. It's small and cozy, food is good, ambiance is nice.
quick & very good service. delicious food.. a little pricey
Other than having to wait 15-20 minutes for our reservation, it was a good meal. Local, old-world feel. Friendly staff.
Everyone in our party enjoyed their meals. Loved my Chicken Toscana!!! We will definitely be putting Coppola's on our go to list.
Great cozy Italian restaurant. Great food and terrific service!
Uninspired food and wines. The lasagna was a pile of of molten cheese over diner-quality noodles and filling. Wines tasted like they came from jugs - or the discount section of Trader Joe's. Not going back.
Great "homey" place with delicious food, warm service.
Lovely. Simply lovely. Meatball was amazeballs would highly recommend.
Great delicious as always!
Always wonderfully delicious with the most professional staff
First visit here was very pleasant evening. Space is small and popular on weekends. The food quality is solid and offering is all the American Italian favorites: Veal Parm, Pastas, Lasagna, some pizzas. The artichoke and asparagus salad was delicious, fresh and well seasoned. Overall a neighborhood solid option.
I have been here several times ) esp when seeing a show at the Beacon) and have never been disappointed!! The food is delicious!!
Excellent service and food. They really went the extra distance and made this a special event
Fun restaurant! Food was great. Service was excellent. Very convenient to the theater.
They're definitely trying to turn tables over quickly. People trying to rush us into ordering, rush us to finish (three separate people came over to ask me if I was done when I still had food on my plate and fork in my hand). It's great food but I'll probably do takeout or delivery from now on. Wasn't worth feeling like I was in the way.
The food was delicious. I had the Bronzino with crabmeat topping. very good. I enjoyed the stuffed mushroom appetizer as well.
Food and service are consistently excellent
Wonderful neighborhood restaurant. The service was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. Really authentic Italian food. We had the stuffed mushrooms and the artichoke and asparagus salad for appetizers. We shared and they both were delicious. For the main dishes, I had the Branzino, which was amazing, and my husband had a type of Zuppe di Pesce dish, which he really enjoyed. We will definitely be going back.
We purchased a voucher on TravelZoo for the first time and will never do so again. Coppola's was awful. There were two takeout runners who passed our table about a dozen times with takeout orders. The waitress was grumpy. Our entrees were delivered before we finished our appetizers. My dish, shrimp scampi, was not shrimp scampi - just 5 tiny shrimp on a huge bed of linguine. The meatball appetizer and eggplant parm were very good. We will never return to this restaurant.
The food and service are very good and the restaurant is located right by a subway so is easy to get to.
The food was scrumptious from appetizers to entree. The wine was as delicious as the food and paired perfectly. My only complaint was I had no room left for dessert! The staff was attentive, friendly and talented.
Went to NYC to see Tedeschi Trucks Band at the Beacon Theater. Coppola's was across the street from our hotel and was a five-minute walk to the Beacon. It got great reviews and was recommended by hotel staff. The homemade pasta with bolognese sauce was fabulous and the service was excellent. Highly recommend Coppola's.
It was crazy loud they seated us in the middle "aisle" the sound bounced off of us—- I requested to be reseated but they didn't honor the request. We couldn't even hear the waiter, used a travel zoo voucher and honestly some of the terms and conditions, made no sense it looks like they raised their prices so they didn't have to offer some entrées. I'm saying this because yelp people mention that the prices were raised recently. Food was marginal at best, service was extremely erratic. Either the bus boy was trying to remove our plates every five seconds or we were sitting. Nobody asked if the food was good my fish was half cooked. After the food was served nobody followed up to even ask why at least half of my entrée was still on the plate. No, would not go back. Even with the travel zoo voucher, I don't feel like we got a good value. And then there's the 20% automatic gratuity.SO LOUD!
As always, the food was delicious. Thanks again to Coppola's wonderful staff. Our favorite Italian restaurant in the city
Very enjoyable meal. We were in a bit of a hurry- no problem. They took good care of us.
Very good food and service
Has quickly become my favorite neighborhood restaurant. Live taking out of town friends to experience a quintessential New York take on Italian food.
Every neighborhood should have a Coppola's - the great-meal-every-time mainstay you can always count on. We're partial to the veal parm, but the truth is we've never had anything on the menu that wasn't excellent. Generous pours of wine and drinks, homey vibe, nice staff, excellent value -- Coppola's checks every box, every time.
Consistently excellent. Neighborhood gem. I did notice the prices went up a lot but so did the portion size
My favorite neighborhood restaurant. I good there for the good food and ambiance.
Service was professional, food was delicious, prices very low for New York City. A total gem!
Coppola's is the perfect low-key Italian restaurant when that is exactly what you want. Reasonable prices, a small cozy downstairs room, and well-prepared traditional Italian-American comfort food. Every neighborhood needs a restaurant like this -- and we hope that Coppola's never changes!
Best red sauce and best lasagna in New York. I can't wait to go back.

Three seats in the Missouri State House flipped from anti-choice to pro-choice
ST. LOUIS, MO — Voters in Tuesday's midterm election took the opportunity to show that pro-choice candidates are a priority across the state; twenty-three candidates endorsed by NARAL Pro-Choice Missouri won their races. Last night, Missouri added three more pro-choice champions to the Missouri House: Matt Sain in HD 14, Keri Ingle in HD 35 and Paula Brown in HD 70. All three candidates flipped seats from anti-choice to pro-choice.
"We're incredibly proud of the strong message that Missourians sent with this election. Voters are tired of elected officials that are obsessed with further restricting access to abortion and want to see legislators in office who will fight for their right to bodily autonomy," said Alison Dreith, NARAL Pro-Choice Missouri Executive Director.
"Our endorsed candidates worked incredibly hard to represent their districts and kept reproductive freedom at the forefront of their platforms. We look forward to working with returning pro-choice champions and the brand-new legislators who are dedicated to making Missouri a better place for women and families."
Now that Brett Kavanaugh sits on the Supreme Court and Roe v. Wade is in greater danger than ever before, it's crucial that individual state legislatures protect a woman's right to choose. Suburban Kansas City and St. Louis made moves to protect access to reproductive health care last night by electing pro-choice fighters in place of legislators who were previously anti-choice.

Abstract: The new law was approved last year by the National Assembly winning the 91% approval. For digital commerce, other services provided by foreign operators without a stable organization in the country are subject to the obligation to deposit in Vietnam, directly or by proxy, the fiscal registration, the tax return and the payment. Analysis by D'Andrea & Partners
MILAN, Aug 12 (Class Editori) - For the first time in Vietnam, the tax law has introduced regulations for the tax administration of e-commerce activities. The reform, approved last June by the National Assembly with a majority of over 91%, states that "for e-commerce activities, digital-based activities and other services provided by foreign operators without a permanent establishment in Vietnam, there is the obligation to file in Vietnam, directly or by proxy, the fiscal registration, the tax return and the payment of the same, pursuant to the rules of the Minister of Finance." However, as an analysis of the reform carried out by the D'Andrea & Partners studio underlines, at the moment these laws are used only as principles and serve as a guideline for the Ministries and the competent agencies in view of the forthcoming issuing of detailed guidelines on e-commerce related commercial activities.
On the basis of the reform, the tax payers have the right to request the tax authorities to set the deadline for the settlement of tax refunds, non-refundable tax amounts and to communicate the legal reasons justifying their non-refundability. Another innovation concerns the application of modern technologies for tax administration. Most of the activities and relations with the tax authorities will have to take place via the Authority's online portal. An electronic platform will be available, accessible by taxpayers, to view and print all electronic documents sent via the online portal.
The law, underlines again D'Andrea & Partner, "also perfects the duties of the ministries and central agencies regarding the tax administration, the decentralization and the extension of the competences for the decisions on the remission of the fiscal debt."
Finally, the reform, which will come into force next July except for some regulations starting in 2022, explicitly details the regulations on conduct that are prohibited in tax management. This includes the collusion and the competition between taxpayers and tax administration officials for the purpose of committing tax fraud, intentionally causing difficulties for tax payers; use of tax money without authorization; the tax declaration intentionally omitted and impeding the exercise of the functions of tax officials; the use of the tax code of another person or allow others to use their tax code illegally; failure to issue invoices for the supply of goods and services or issue and use of illegal invoices.

NEW DELHI, The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is working on to develop a new technology to give a new life to the dead rockets, in a bid to make use of the last stage of the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) rockets for space examinations, ISRO chief K. Sivan has reportedly said.
In an interview with an English daily, Sivan is learnt to have claimed
that India was the only country in the world to work on this new technology.
This would largely enable space students to use these alive rockets for
conducting space experiments for free, he said.
According to a report in English daily The Times of India, the ISRO is
going to perform a technology demonstration of this new system when it
launches the PSLV C44 rocket in January.
Normally the last stage of a PSLV rocket after releasing the primary
satellite in space becomes dead and categorised as debris. Now we are working
on a new technology where we will give life to this dead last stage of PSLV
for six months, Sivan said.
Sivan further stated that this would be a costeffective way to perform
experiments by space students in space even as there would not be a need to
launch a separate rocket for the purpose.
According to the ISRO chairman, the last stage of a rocket launch usually
keeps tumbling in the same orbit without any control where it released the
satellite. To keep it stabilized we will keep additional fuel in a separate
compartment without disturbing the original configuration, Sivan added.
He further explained that the last stage of a rocket launch keeps falling
and enters the Earth's atmosphere and burns out. By inserting batteries and
a solar panel, we can increase its life span for months by making it
communicable from the ground station. It can then be used as a platform for
experiments like microgravity tests, he said.
Students don't need to launch a fullfledged satellite. They would just
need the instruments with which they want to do experiments and attach them
with the last stage. The instruments will be powered by the last stage, he
reportedly said in the interview.
