LIBRARIANS GET HELP FROM UNEXPECTED QUARTERS, AS INDIAN STUDENTS WRITE USEFUL
LINUX SOFTWARE
By Frederick Noronha
fred@bytesforall.org
GOA INDIA -- Librarians could get the smile back on their faces, thanks
to the initiative of three young engineering students from Goa who have put
together a software package that takes the monotony out of managing
thousands of books that cross their counter.
Gaurav Priyolkar, Sharmad Naik and Hiren Lodhiya (all 21) of the Verna-based
Padre Conceisao College of Engineering have put together the library
management software, which they hope will soon be utilised in their own
institution.
What's more, since the package is based on the 'Open Source' Linux-based
approach to writing software, it will be freely distributed to anyone else
wanting to use it. In contrast commercially-produced software products doing
similar tasks costs lakhs of rupees.
Gaurav, Sharmad and Hiren are all final year computer engineering students,
and undertook this challenge as part of their project. "This software will
be kept in Open Source (its 'source code' will be available to anyone
wanting to implement or improve the product). It could be utilised by anyone
who needs it or finds it useful," Gaurav told this correspondent.
Unlike other available software, this still-unnamed product is capable of
handling library-member records, fines collected, invoices and even report
generation. Books and libraries being at the heart of the
information-collecting process, if found useful, it could play a useful role
in helping libraries be more professionally run.
Librarians would now perhaps not have an excuse that a suitable software is
not available for the computerisation of their operations. This software
means there are no bulky paper card-catalogues, fines don't have to be
laboriously calculated, you don't need thick books or files containing
records of all members, and you can get 'reports' of various library
operations in a matter of seconds.
Hiren -- who along with his two other colleagues first encountered the
alternate Open Source GNU-Linux operating system barely a year back -- says:
"When we started, we never thought we would reach this far."
His colleague Sharmad has been making frequent trips to the nearby Indian
software Mecca of Bangalore, to get a better grasp of Linux-related
concepts. Smiling, he says: "Some projects of other students shrunk along
the way. Ours grew vastly (and became even more ambitious)."
The trio spent two months putting together what ended up as a fairly big
project. "Any database with 20 tables is an impressive size for a project.
Our has some 84 tables," says Hiren.
Linux, an Open Source means of writing software which implies collaborative
functioning and the free sharing of knowledge by those working on such
projects, is gaining popularity among young Indian developers.
These young engineers say they gained immsense help from international
mailing-lists that proved very helpful in sorting out their difficulties,
via the Internet. "We were very happy when one day, we noticed a bug in
PHP," says Hiren, explaining how the collaborative style of writing Open
Source software helps all to gain from the shared knowledge.
"Now our hearts are into this project," says Hiren. They expect their own
Goa-based college to implement the software in its library probably. "We
want to keep the source-code open so that any future batch can continue to
work on improvements and enhance the potential of this software further,"
says Hiren. "Any other library can also get the benefit of using it."
In writing the project, they sought help from libraries at the Goa-based
National Institute of Oceanography and the Goa University.
Gaurav explains that the software allows any library-user to log-in either
as a member of the general public, a library member, or a staff-member. Each
one using the software has certain priviledges, depending on his or her
category.
Library members, for instance, can search for books or make a request that a
book be reserved for them. Library-staff, on the other hand, can look after
the issue, return or renewal of books. Some staff are entitled to add new
members or 'change their profile'.
Other staffers -- like the acquisition clerk -- can place orders for new
books, make invoices, or physically locate the books on the shelves upon
their arrival.
On the other hand, the 'administrator' gets overall charge, and can get a
number of useful statistics on pressing a button. He can find out the daily
inflow of readers, fines collected, or the members defaulting on the return
of their books.
"If a book you want is not available, you are asked if you want to reserve
it. One major problem is that some people keep renewing books and hogging it
for themselves. Under this computerised system, it will not be allowed once
there is a reservation pending," explains Gaurav. In addition, all
transactions (books borrowed, etc) will be intimated to members by an
automatically-generated e-mail message.
The young engineers who worked on this project say equivalent commercial
softwares cost between Rs 5 to 10 lakh. They were all praise for Goa
University's computer science department head Prof Gurunandan Bhat, an Open
Source and Linux enthusiast, who encouraged them to undertake this
potentially-useful project.
Its running platform is Linux, it uses a Postgres database, the webserver is
Apache, its scripting languages are PHP and Perl, and its front-end can be
any web-browser, making it easy for any end-user. (ENDS)

WORKSTATION SOLUTIONS ANNOUNCES NEW QUICK RESTORE
DATA PROTECTION SOFTWARE FOR LINUX USERS
Quick Restore Backs Up and Restores Vital Enterprise Data in Multiplatform
Environments
AMHERST, NH — May 29, 2001 —Workstation Solutions, a leader in innovative
data protection software, today announced new Linux and Windows platform
support for its Quick Restore™ backup and recovery software. This broadened
platform support extends the quick implementation, easy operation, and
comprehensive scope of Quick Restore across Microsoft Windows 2000, UNIX,
and Linux operating environments. The company also announced new Quick
Restore features to improve performance, extend firewall support, control
DLT tape format, and support newly available tape libraries from leading
vendors.
Extended Linux Support
This new version of Quick Restore extends Workstation Solutions’ early
support of Linux platforms to the newest version of SuSE Linux, Release 7.1.
The most recent release of the popular operating system includes the new 2.4
kernel. IDC has cited Linux as the fastest-growing operating system for
servers, with a 24 percent increase in sales between 1999 and 2000. SuSE
Linux offers a robust, scalable, and comprehensive platform for enterprises,
especially for e-commerce and Web server needs and Quick Restore offers high
performance backup and restore capabilities for Linux operating
environments. Workstation Solutions was the first to offer an
enterprise-ready Linux-based backup server.
Quick Restore Supports Windows 2000
Quick Restore Version 2.7.4 supports Windows 2000 platforms, which is
growing in favor as an enterprise server choice. Microsoft’s improvements to
the performance and reliability of Windows 2000 have encouraged more data
center managers to select it as an enterprise operating system environment.
As companies increasingly rely on Windows 2000 platforms for
mission-critical applications, there is a growing need for powerful and
reliable backup software, such as Quick Restore, to protect this vital data.
"IT managers face the difficult challenge of managing increasingly complex
data centers with a multitude of operating system platforms and diverse
applications, and insuring that the right data is always available,"
explained Jim Ward, president of Workstation Solutions. "Data protection
software should provide support for multiplatform environments and offer an
easy-to-implement remedy to insure the safety and availability of this vital
information. Quick Restore 2.7.4 does this across the environments of choice
in large enterprises."
Quick Restore is based on the Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP), an
open standard that enables interoperability among NAS server platforms and
backup applications. It uses NDMP for local or remote backup of NAS systems
to industry-leading tape drives and libraries.
Extended Firewall Support
Quick Restore has added the ability to backup and recover clients that exist
on the unsecured side of a firewall, allowing the software to easily adapt
to infrastructures with unsecured clients in the administrative domain.
DLT Tape Format Controls
Quick Restore now provides increased control over DLT tape format. This adds
new flexibility to adapt to an enterprise’s infrastructure by providing
another option when configuring backup solutions to meet user
specifications.
Tape Library Support Added
Workstation Solutions has added support for the latest technology in tape
libraries. These include:
a.. Breece Hill Q70, Q140, and Q210
b.. Qualstar TLS-68120
c.. StorageTek L209
Quick Restore’s support of these new devices provides companies with the
ability to select the newest and most up-to-date storage devices available
on the market today. Quick Restore also supports Exabyte Mammoth-2 8mm tape
drive, HP SureStore DLT Libraries 2/20, 4/40, 6/60, Spectra Logic Gator
series, ADIC Scalar AIT 220 and Scalar 1000 Libraries, Qualstar TLS-Series
412180, 412300, 412360, and 412600 Libraries, StorageTek 7430 Tape Library,
and Compaq SSL2000 Series.

Subject: MATTool 0.26 Released
Date: Sat, 2 Jun 2001 23:32:49 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Hi
I'm proud to announce a new release of the Monitoring and Administration
Tool (MATtool).
Visit the MATtool site at: http://www.ee.ryerosn.ca/~sblack/mat
This version has:
- - Run any command accross 1 or 1000's of hosts, just select the hosts
and command, and MATtool will take care of connecting to each host
and running it. A future release will include command replay to
deal with hosts which were initially unavailable.
- - Extended the host status scanner, so you can visually see when a
host is in trouble, and what is causing it.
- - Added faster graphing of monitored resources.
- - Converted protocol probes to TCL. You now have a graphical display
of SMTP (Email), POP3, and FTP server availability, and HTTP
server response time.
- - Added System inventory information, shutdown, and Reboot, nsswitch
support, added file sorting and lots of other changes...
See the MAT web site for a full description of all the changes:
http://www.ee.ryerson.ca/~sblack/mat
It contains screen-shots, as well as descriptions of MAT's functions.
Below is a description of this release of MAT.
Monitoring & Administration Tool (MAT)
--------------------------------------
MAT is an easy to use network enabled UNIX configuration and monitoring tool.
It provides an integrated tool for many common system administration tasks.
The GUI interface hides much of the differences between UNIX varieties in a
heterogeneous environment. The straight forward interface hides the
complexity of the underling configuration files, allowing many of the mundane
administrative tasks to be safely delegated to others. From a single MAT
console you can manage every UNIX host on your network where the MAT agent
is installed.
Tools:
MAT is a time saver. MAT provides many of the tools a System Administrator
needs during the day, including DNS, NIS, Backups, and Replication. A
powerful feature is the ability to run a command on many hosts at once.
For example a new group could be added to all machines just by doing a select
all, then adding the new group. For generic files a simple editor window is
provided, with this the configuration files for a sites web servers could be
changed, just by editing one.
MAT includes a flexable replication tool for the distribution of files from
a single machine to up to 64 other machines. Complete control of file and
directory properties is provided, as well as bandwidth saving incremental
replication, where only the changed files are replicated.
MAT includes a Backup tool for SCSI tape devices. Tape catalogs are stored
online, so file retreval is easy. Hosts are backed up in parallel, and a
graphical restore tool makes restores easy.
MAT includes a command replication tool, allowing a change on one host to
be made on all selected hosts. By selecting several hosts or groups MAT will
run the next command on all of the selected machines, so changing a password
would cause it to be changed on all hosts. Use with care!
Monitoring:
MAT provides two kinds of monitoring, namely current status, and historic
logs. Through the Status screen you can inspect the current state of the
machine. The MATd screen gives you access to historical data on the machine.
It lets see how heavily loaded you machines are, how the network interface
is performing, and many other parameters.
The MATd daemon allows you to specify alarm thresholds. It can watch your
FTP and Email server for failures. It can watch your disks from getting full.
It can watch the CPU use for thrashing, and several others. You can taylor
your response to each alarm situation, including taking corrective action.
Administration:
The administrative tasks can be delegated to other individuals. A MAT user
can be granted as much or little access as you require. Users can be given
different access rights on all your MAT hosts. Every MAT user can be managed
from a single console. A log file records all the MAT commands issued on a
host, and is viewable from the MAT console.
MAT also includes easy to use interfaces for common UNIX configuration tasks:
User administration
Hosts
Email Aliases
Mounted filesystems
Crontab entries
DNS client configuration
Login message (motd)
Services
Exported (shared) filesystems
DNS domains & records
Most NIS records
Syslogd entries
MAT allows you inspect many of the common system parameters including:
All syslog files (TK 8.0 recommended for this)
Routes
Processes
Lastlog
Diskspace
Exports
The monitoring deamon MATd runs scripts for monitoring of:
Network Connectivity (through ICMP)
Required Processes
Disk usage
CPU use
Run queue
User logins
FTP server status
SMTP server status
Network Interface Activity
SWAP, and Memory use are monitored in the Linux version.
A simple plotting tool allows you to graph the various monitored
parameters. The monitoring scripts are written in Perl, and should
be easy to customize and expand. The MAT probe has been updated to
display it's current status.
Requirements:
- -------------
For the MAT agent you need a UNIX machine running:
Linux 2.x (glibc)
Solaris 5.x
IRIX 6.x
HPUX 10.20 or 11.00
The Console requires Tcl/TK on at least one host.
Perl is optional
License:
- --------
Free for single host installations, otherwise it is shareware.
