Nice, if only you could count on having it installed on your fleet, and your fleet is 100pct Linux, no AIX, no HPUX, no SOLARIS, no SUSE on IBM Power....

Been there, tried to, got a huge slap in the face.

Been there, done that. I am so glad I don’t have to deal with all that insanity anymore. In the build farm I was responsible for, I was always happy to work on the Linux and BSD boxes. AIX and HPUX made me want to throw things. At least the Itanium junk acted like a normal server, just a painfully slow one.

I will never voluntarily run a bunch of non-Linux/BSD servers again.
