HP Autoloader
by Joseph L. Casale 19 Jan '08

19 Jan '08

Hi, I need to backup data to an HP autoloader, it needs to be *full* backups each time so using Amanda doesn't make sense. Can someone point me to what utilities to use to access the autoloader, I would rather read up on this myself as my knowledge here is very weak. I am moving this unit from a windows environment running Backup Exec. I know all of those features won't be available but I was hoping to control in some predictable manner what tapes are used in what order to effectively partition the loader. Thanks, jlc

Centos 5 File Server X-Windows problem
by J 19 Jan '08

19 Jan '08

I have a file server that runs a virtual machine that suddenly blanked its display. I can switch to <ctrl><alt><f1>, but switching back to <ctrl><alt><f7> just gives me a blank screen (no cursor). There are no entries in /var/log/messages or in /var/log/Xorg.0.log that might explain what happened. I was running IceWM, but I can't find any logs for it at all. ~/.xsession-errors shows nothing useful, either. ( And was last updated 10 days ago. ) Anyone have an idea what happened? ( Or how to figure out what happened? )

Another option is to just use the Comcast mail > server for outgoing mail, depending on your requirements. Or activate the MSA port (587) on the Postfix server. This is used specifically for submitting outgoing mail and usually requires SMTP authentication. It should be fairly easy to configure, but I'm not familiar with Postfix, so I can't help you there. -- Bowie

Recover lost data from LVM RAID1
by Alain Reguera Delgado 18 Jan '08

18 Jan '08

Guys, The other day while working on my old workstation it get frozen and after reboot I lost almost all data unexpectedly. I have a RAID1 configuration with LVM. 2 IDE HDDs. md0 .. store /boot (100MB) -------------------------- /dev/hda2 /dev/hdd1 md1 .. store / (26GB) /dev/hda3 /dev/hdd2 The only info that still rest in was that, that I restore after the fresh install. It seems that the disk were with problems and weren't syncing :(. I confessed, I didn't check that at first time but after I lost the data and check /var/log/messages I saw that. >From /var/log/messages ...

This computer is really old, Celeron 800MHz, 256MB of RAM and IDE disk too. I know that I have to suffer the consequences but if you know some way to recover some data, help me please. These days I have been reading about: mdamd, and some way to recover but no success: I tried to boot from rescue mode with CentOS 5 first CD and do an fsck to /dev/hda3 and /dev/hdd2. After this something about superblock was told to me and that use the command e2fsck -b 8123 <device> (I don't remember the number exactly) but no success either. Do you have some idea ? Thanks guys, Cheers, al.

Ques about 5 vs. 3 in CentOS-announce Digest, Vol 35, Issue 9
by William L. Maltby 18 Jan '08

18 Jan '08

I don't know if I'm brain damaged this A.M. or what, but I can't figure (recall?) why this summary says CentOS 5 in the "Today's Topics", has "el5" and "centos.3" as well in the md5sum. Gentle chides for being dense this morning are accepted. TIA -- Bill
