This is a collection of administration scripts. At the moment it
consists of a script to control rc.d scripts at runtime, a
script that runs common make targets on batches of ports, scripts to set
variables for make jobs (like portconf, but with more possibilities).
And scripts to check for broken packages and missing libraries.
This module is a client library for the MogileFS distributed file
system. The class method 'new' creates a client object against a
particular mogilefs tracker and domain. This object may then be used
to store and retrieve content easily from MogileFS.
Pipe Viewer (pv) is a terminal-based tool for monitoring the
progress of data through a pipeline. It can be inserted into
any normal pipeline between two processes to give a visual
indication of how quickly data is passing through, how long
it has taken, how near to completion it is, and an estimate
of how long it will be until completion.
pflogx is a simple tool to export OpenBSD's packet filter logs to XML files.
It reads a binary logfile generated by the pf logging daemon (pflogd) to
generate a human-readable and exploitable XML file.
Using an XSLT processor you can convert this XML file to any other
format (HTML, CSV, SQL, ...).
This package contains a command-line tool that displays as much detail
about itself and its environment as possible. It can be used as a test
tool, to understand the type of environment a process runs in, and for
comparing system environments.
"pstack" is a workalike for the Solaris program of the same name.
Running pstack on a process or core file produces a stack trace of
each thread in that process.
It's useful for finding out what wedged processes are up to, getting
profiles of what applications, and just satisfying one's curiosity.
filelike is a Python module for building and manipulating file-like
objects.
This module takes care of the groundwork for implementing and manipulating
objects that provide a rich file-like interface, including reading,
writing, seeking and iteration. It also provides a number of useful
classes built on top of this functionality.
Pdsh is a high-performance, parallel remote shell utility. It uses a sliding
window of threads to execute remote commands, conserving socket resources while
allowing some connections to timeout if needed. It was originally written as a
replacement for IBM's DSH on clusters at LLNL.
Capistrano is a standalone utility that can also integrate nicely with
Rails. You simply provide SwitchTower with a deployment "recipe" that
describes your various servers and their roles, and voila! You magically
have single-command deployment. It even allows you to roll a bad version
out of production and revert back to the previous release.
SCSI / firewire harddrive spindown daemon
This is a small program for handling automated spinning down of
SCSI harddrives. With SCSI devices it is not as common to spindown
for power management purposes as for ATA however it might be required
to spin down a disk contained in a firewire enclosure for instance.
