-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Are there any repositories for CentOS 5.5 that keep the latest MySQL versions? After enabling everything I can think off (CentOS, rpmforge, epel), I'm still only seeing 5.0.77-4.el5_5.4. 5.5 came out yesterday and 5.1 has been around for a while. I don't want to manually install from the mysql site for obvious reasons.

RAID help
by Jason T. Slack-Moehrle 16 Dec '10

16 Dec '10

Hi All, I have a new system with 2 Seagate 1TB SATA Enterprise level drives in it. I want to RAID1 (mirror) these drives. This machine will be a web-server in my apartment hosting an HTML video fan site I am creating. Apache, MySQL, PHP etc. This site will easily be 300+ gigs with all the versions of each video, the MySQL won't be huge, but will grow as data for each video is added (i.e location on the server, keyframe name, etc) I am a bit confused by: http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deployment_Guide-en-US/s1-raid-config.html So if I simplify, I must: 1. Create a software raid partition on each drive 2. Create a RAID 1 out of that partition and use a mount point of /boot 3. Create other mount points I might want i.e swap, /home, etc 4. Create RAID1 out of these partitions 5. rinse and repeat this for each mount point I want A few questions: 1. This system support 16gb of RAM. I have 9gb in it, but I will max it out over the next few months as I find great deals on RAM, what should my SWAP space be? I recall a long while ago that SWAP should match physical RAM. 2. Any reason I can't just create a single mount point taking up the entire drive and RAID1 the entire thing? Can anyone recommend some ideal mount points and sizes? 3. What should I account for if my /var/www/html will be very large? Best, -Jason

Dear centos community, I was in the process of installing centos in a machine however during the install the OS is unable to see the controller "MegaRAID SAS 9280-24i4e", i noticed that LSI has some drivers for centos. Can someone guide me on how to load the drivers so the OS can see the controller as it loads. Thank you in advance. Lisandro

Replacing disk in RAID array with bigger disk?
by Kai Schaetzl 16 Dec '10

16 Dec '10

I have to replace a disk in a RAID-1 array (LSI 1068 controller in an HP DL320 G3) and I assume it shouldn't be a problem if I use a bigger one? (going from 500 MB to 1 GB) The controller should just be able to build the same 500 MB disk as it did before, right? Now, if in a next step I replace the other, still smaller disk with a 1 GB disk, too, will the controller be able to build a 1 GB disk from that? If so, will the existing LVM setup be able to utilize that extra space or will it be stuck at the original 500 MB? I've never done this before, so I have no idea if this should work or not. Thanks. Also thanks for any other comments regarding the replacement process. Kai

what is device dm-2?
by Kai Schaetzl 16 Dec '10

16 Dec '10

According to some searches and the LVM documentation on centos.org a "dmsetup ls" should give me more info. But it doesn't list devices with dm- numbers. Only like so: lv-name (major, minor) The minor numbers seem to be the same numbers that I can see as dm- numbers in an iostat. Is this by chance the dm- number, so that minor 2 would be dm-2?

BIND and latest update (max open files WARNING)
by Jorge Fábregas 15 Dec '10

15 Dec '10

Hi all, After the latest security update for bind (which came out last night), now there's a new message on syslog, (facility: daemon, severity: warning) every time you restart named: max open files (1024) is smaller than max sockets (4096) After googling for a while the solution seems to be to add this to /etc/security/limits.conf: named soft nofile 4096 ...and mofity /etc/named.conf in order to add, under the options section: files 4096; That seems to work. Of course, you may raise the 4096 but I guess that's the default in BIND and I was good with that. I'm not sure why this happend. Maybe before the update bind had a value of 1024 for max.sockets and now it was raised to 4096. -- Jorge
