Lingering dhclient issue
by Alfred von Campe 22 Jun '11

22 Jun '11

I recently reconfigured some CentOS 4.3 systems that were using DHCP to use static IP addresses. At the same time, the systems were moved to a new VLAN. Here is the approximate sequence of events that took place: 1. ifdown eth0 2. edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 with static IP address 3. wait for network folks to reconfigure switch 4. ifup eth0 I may have reversed steps 1 and 2 on some of the systems. The problem was that the dhclient process didn't go away, and kept renewing the old lease. Our DHCP server is configured to contact the DNS server and update the entry for each host it serves. So the DNS entries for these systems were pointing to the old address in the old VLAN. The eth0 interface itself just kept the static IP address for which it was configured. It took me a while to figure out what was going on. My question is, what could I have done to avoid this (other than killing the dhclient process)? Is there a better way to reconfigure an interface to use a static address? I am not interested in solutions that involve using a GUI (i.e., only command line solutions). Thanks, Alfred

Dell Poweredge R300
by Nicholas 07 Jun '09

Hi all, Just found out that the Poweredge R300 cant even load the CentOS 5.2 64bit installer. Had to revert to Ubuntu. Seems its a driver problem. Pity, but does this kind of case apply to many other servers? --- OSCC MAMPU MyMeeting Version 2.0 Release http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/solution-areas/application/mymeeting

I have an old RHEL3 box that I am upgrading to CentOS5. I picked up a new Dell Poweredge R200 to use for that. Is there an easy way to copy all the user accounts and existing mail from the old server to the new one? Thanks. -- -=/>Thom

ZFS on Linux
by Mag Gam 11 Jan '09

11 Jan '09

I am planning to use ZFS on my Centos 5.2 systems. The data I am storing is very large text files where each file can range from 10M to 20G. I am very interested on the compression feature of ZFS, and it seems no other native Linux FS supports it. My question are: Is ZFS stable? How does it scale for very large filesytems, ie, 2TB to 9TB? How is the performance of fuse? I plan to use it on my archive server first, so data reliability is very important Any thoughts or ideas? TIA
