Full server restore-point image
by Alain Reguera Delgado 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

Hi, After some months of configuring and testing a small server, think that would be nice to make a full server restore-point image in order to recover it if something goes wrong in the future, just restoring the image back and not making the full install and configure process all over again. The server uses Logical Volumes. I was thinking on using the CentOS LiveCD and then use dd command to clone all partitions to another storage device. But I have no experience on this. What do you suggest ? Cheers, al.

Another oddity - users get no ftp (no ftpd) on latest update from CentOS 5.0
by Mark Hull-Richter 03 Aug '07

The subject pretty much says it all. My ftp comes back with "ftp: ftp/tcp: unknown service" - unless I run it as root, in which case it works just fine. What's going on here? Did I screw up a setting of mine or something? Thanks. mhr

how to export and import VMware servers
by Rogelio Bastardo 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

I recently build a CentOS-based VMware server (the free ver) and now need to move all of the virtual machines off my old Windows-based VMware server (also the free ver) to this next CentOS-based one. I have successfully FTP'd all of the files to the new CentOS box and have even opened the server in the console Window, but cannot "start" it. I start the machine (like I always do), and nothing happens. Unfortunately, I cannot simply run "import", as I'm using a Windows-based workstation to use the Windows-program to console into the CentOS-based VMware server. I suspect that perhaps some config file or something still thinks that the machine is still running in the previous Windows host OS? Now, both my guest OS and host OS are both CentOS 4.5. Before, the host OS was Windows 2003, and my host OS is CentOS 4.5. Any ideas of where to look would be greatly appreciated. (I understand that this might not be the best place to ask such a non CentOS-related question.)

CentOS - HP
by Tom Brown 02 Aug '07

02 Aug '07

Hi Does anyone have experience of running CentOS on HP hardware, both rack mount kit and blades? How are things like hardware monitoring etc? We may be moving from Dell to HP and i get on really well with OMSA and Nagios etc so ideally would like to monitor using similar tools rather than some central 'enterprise' dashboard etc. Any real world experience? thanks

Printed just fine - text PDFs are not the problem. Also, the ps files produced when I print the graphical PDFs to a file will not print either. Thanks. mhr
