Re: [CentOS] Apache/Cluster issue -- Single public IP address

You can try heartbeart... :) DS ------Original Message------ From: avi(a)myphonebook.co.in Sender: centos-bounces(a)centos.org To: centos(a)centos.org ReplyTo: CentOS mailing list Subject: [CentOS] Apache/Cluster issue -- Single public IP address Sent: Jan 8, 2010 11:28 PM I want to set up a cluster that is used for web hosting (RHCS cluster). Recently, I experimented with a 2 node cluster and was able to run it successfully. However, I have started facing some issues with Apache, which I had configured as a service using the Cluster configuration tool. To do this Apache needs a floating IP address. This address is in addition to the network interface IP address. For example if my NIC IP is 192.168.1.1, then I need 192.168.1.2 as a floating IP address, and this has to be bound to apache. At least this is what I understood after several hours of experimentation. I also figured that if I configured 192.168.1.1 as a cluster resource and bound it to apache, the cluster manager failed to start apache and the NIC was put "off". ( In effect 192.168.1.1 was removed from the NIC ). However, the Apache service ran fine when bound to the ADDITIONAL IP i.e. 192.168.1.2 ( the floating IP ). The above example was just a lab setup to test the cluster. My problem is that I only have a single public IP address, to serve my web server and my question is this: Is this the end of the road, for installing apache as a service with ONE public IP address?? I am willing to give further info, if required.

How do I...
by fred smith 09 Jan '10

09 Jan '10

Only tangentially on topic, at best... Given a pile of html files, comprising chapters of a book, with a single html file that serves as a table of contents to the group, how would I turn the entire book into a single PDF? I can't think of a way to do that, all I can come up with would result in a pile of PDFs, one per html. But there's gotta be a better way. Suggestions welcome. Thanks in advance! (doing this on Linux, of course, which makes it slightly on topic.)

selinux violation does not get logged
by Nataraj 09 Jan '10

09 Jan '10

After upgrading to centos 5.4 I am getting a selinux violation, yet nothing is logged to /var/log/audit/audit.log. Other violations do get logged. The violation occurs when running the following command on the mail server: aspen> /usr/bin/Mail centos(a)centos.org Subject: test hi Cc: aspen> send-mail: warning: premature end-of-input on /usr/sbin/postdrop -r while reading input attribute name send-mail: fatal: nataraj(500): unable to execute /usr/sbin/postdrop -r: Success If I run with "setenforce 0" /usr/bin/Mail works. With "setenforce 1" it gets the error above, yet the violation does not get logged, so I can't tell how to fix it. Note: /usr/bin/Mail is the postfix version of /usr/bin/Mail. Any ideas how I can find out what the violation is so I can add rules to allow it? Nataraj

Serial port fun: CentOS 4.8 (32-bit) vs. CentOS 5.4 (64-bit)
by Robert Heller 08 Jan '10

I am in the process of migrating from running CentOS 4.8 (32-bit) to CentOS 5.4 (64-bit) on my AMD Sempron(tm) Processor LE-1300 system (it is running CentOS 4.8 32-bit because the disk images are from a previous PIII system), and things are 'interesting' WRT how the Lava Computer mfg Inc Quattro-PCI card is being handled. lspci (on CentOS 4.8 32-bit) yields: 01:0a.0 Serial controller: Lava Computer mfg Inc Quattro-PCI A 01:0a.1 Serial controller: Lava Computer mfg Inc Quattro-PCI B On the 32-bit system (2.6.9-89.0.18.EL.plus.c4 [i686]) dmesg says: Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 8 ports, IRQ sharing enabled ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:0a.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 233 ttyS4 at I/O 0xd080 (irq = 233) is a 16550A ttyS5 at I/O 0xd000 (irq = 233) is a 16550A ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:0a.1[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 233 ttyS6 at I/O 0xcc00 (irq = 233) is a 16550A ttyS7 at I/O 0xc880 (irq = 233) is a 16550A With the 64-bit kernel (2.6.18-164.el5 [x86_64]) I get: Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A serial8250: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A 00:0a: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] enabled at IRQ 19 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:0a.0[A] -> Link [LNKC] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 177 0000:01:0a.0: ttyS2 at I/O 0xd080 (irq = 177) is a 16550A 0000:01:0a.0: ttyS3 at I/O 0xd000 (irq = 177) is a 16550A ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:0a.1[A] -> Link [LNKC] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 177 Couldn't register serial port 0000:01:0a.1: -28 OK, instead of skipping ttyS2 and ttyS3 (normally old-school on-board COM3 and COM4) and allocating ttyS4 through ttyS7 for the Quattro, it is assigning ttyS2 and ttyS3 to the first pair, and then barfing (-28?) on the second pair.

Re: [CentOS] SAN help
by Per Qvindesland 08 Jan '10

Hi For sure no problems, I see this about everyday, the major reason is that the rh driver is not certified for use with Dell,HP or IBM for that matter, if we get a support request where I work and the RH driver is used for the qlogic card then customer must install the certified driver from the vendor, this has a lot to do with compabillity with the bios etc, I am not saying that the RH driver is bad it is just unsupported by most vendors.

It for sure is documented to be used at least in the NetApp host utilities guide, without any warning to prefer the driver package provided on the QLogic site. And I do not see any problem using it with CentOS / RHEL 5 device-mapper-multipath on a lot of systems.

I wanted to use RHCS for an ISCSI-SAN setup, with GFS. LVS can work with RHCS. Cannot afford F5's. Am in the process of trying out RHCS with LVS. Otherwise I will fall back on LVS with Mysql replication across nodes.
