partprobe command showing error
by Anumeha Prasad 18 Apr '13

18 Apr '13

Hi, I've created a new partition on /dev/sda on my CentOS machine after which fdisk -l gives output as: Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/sda2 14 3500 28009327+ 83 Linux /dev/sda3 3501 6527 24314377+ 83 Linux Now, when I run partprobe I get the following error: Error: Error informing the kernel about modifications to partition /dev/sda3 -- Device or resource busy. This means Linux won't know about any changes you made to /dev/sda3 until you reboot -- so you shouldn't mount it or use it in any way before rebooting. Warning: The kernel was unable to re-read the partition table on /dev/sda (Device or resource busy). This means Linux won't know anything about the modifications you made until you reboot. You should reboot your computer before doing anything with /dev/sda. I'm using parted rpm version "parted-1.8.1-29.el5". Is it some issue with this version or with the way I'm using this command? Thanks, Anumeha

2nd NIC troubles
by Jason T. Slack-Moehrle 18 Apr '13

18 Apr '13

Hi All, I have 2 NICS in this system. CentOS 6.4 eth0 is the virtual IP from PFSense mapping connected to the router, works fine. eth1 is a second NIC that I have assigned a private IP to and connected it to a switch on the private network. I have many other private devices, so I know this setup works. When I connect the cable to the switch and bring up eth1 the system basically stops taking requests. I can no longer SSH in, Websites stop responding, etc. If I walk over to the server and take down eth1, everything works fine. Here is eth0: DEVICE=eth0 HWADDR=00:1b:21:cd:80:bf TYPE=Ethernet UUID=68a95912-3915-4b1a-9080-eb2017330153 ONBOOT=yes NM_CONTROLLED=yes BOOTPROTO=none IPADDR=192.168.1.27 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 DNS2=8.8.4.4 GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 DNS1=8.8.8.8 IPV6INIT=no USERCTL=no Here is eth1: DEVICE=eth1 HWADDR=00:0a:cd:17:07:7e TYPE=Ethernet UUID=b3851363-ae9e-4066-8993-caed07b9945b ONBOOT=no NM_CONTROLLED=yes BOOTPROTO=none IPADDR=10.0.254.11 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 GATEWAY=10.0.254.1 DNS1=8.8.8.8 DNS2=8.8.4.4 IPV6INIT=no USERCTL=no I have never experienced this before. Also, when I check system-config-network-tui, some .bak, which I made, but deleted the files from the file system when I was trying a few things. But how do I get rid of them? I attached a screenshot Jason

Re: [CentOS] ATI video driver problems
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 18 Apr '13

Well, I'm *almost* there on my user's box with the old ATI card. Radeon driver, and I had one mistake, so now we can access both monitors. But... If I enable xinerama, I can have it work as one large screen, but xrandr is disabled (and the system->preferences->display doesn't work). And with xinerama, it still acts as though either it isn't getting 1280x1024 resolution, or the viewport (?) is bigger than the screens, and I have no viewport option. Also, when I shove the mouse off the screen, a portion, an "L" shape of maybe 25% or 30% of the screen, moves offscreen, and I can't make it come back. With xinerama disabled, xrandr is enabled, the system->preferences->display works, and I can move the mouse between monitors... but the systems sees them as separate, with their own menus at the top, and the display GUI only sees one monitor. Annoying, to say the least. Any X experts here that can suggest what I'm missing? Here's my current xorg.conf: Section "ServerFlags" Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" "true" EndSection Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules" EndSection Section "Module" Load "glx" EndSection <snip of mouse & keyboard sections> Section "Device" Identifier "mycard0" Driver "radeon" BusID "PCI:2:0:0" Screen 0 EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "mycard1" Driver "radeon" BusID "PCI:2:0:0" Screen 1 EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "mymon0" Option "Monitor-DisplayPort-0" Option "Rotate" "left" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "mymon1" Option "Monitor-DisplayPort-1" Option "Rotate" "left" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "myhead0" Device "mycard0" Monitor "mymon0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" EndSubSection EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "myhead1" Device "mycard1" Monitor "mymon1" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" EndSubSection EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "layout0" InputDevice "keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "mouse0" "CorePointer" Screen 0 "myhead0" RightOf "myhead1" Screen 1 "myhead1" Option "Xinerama" "0" EndSection mark

inittab - huh what's it good for?
by James B. Byrne 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

We run a CentOS-5 based hylafax server with external serial modems. We are transitioning to an Asterisk system using IAXmodem running on CentOS-6. On the CentOS-5 system to start the fax modems we added these lines to inittab: # Add fax lines and always ALWAYS run "telinit q" after making a change. fax1:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0 fax2:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS1 On the CentOS-6 host we did this, in accordance with the instructions provided in the various README files and man pages. # send IA00:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/iaxmodem ttyIAX0 # receive mo00:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX0 # send IA01:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/iaxmodem ttyIAX1 # receive mo01:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX1 However, when I do an init q the faxgetty instances do not start. If I run faxgetty from the command line in detached mode for each of them (faxgetty -D ttyIAX0) then they do start. The iaxmodem instances are started from an init.d script as far as I can tell. They appear and disappear with service iaxmodem start and stop in any case and they most certainly do not respawn if the service is stopped. So, my question is: Does inittab have any use on el6 systems? What is its replacement? In other words, how do I accomplish what I am told to do with respect to iaxmodem and faxgetty that formerly worked in inittab and now evidently does not? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

nfs4 and idmapd
by Peter Wood 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

I'm using CentOS5.9 and mounting a remote directory via NFSv4. The nfs server is OpenIndiana 151.a.7 (i.e. Solaris). Users bin and daemon have each others ID on the oposite system. On OpenIndiana: User: bin; ID=2 User: daemon; ID=1 On CentOS: User: bin; ID=1 User: daemon; ID=2 That means if I create a file as daemon on the client (CentOS), it gets saved on the server as owner bin and it shows back on the client as owner bin. I'm trying to use idmapd to define custom mapping but I can't get it working. ======= cat /etc/idmapd.conf [General] Verbosity = 5 Domain = local [Mapping] Nobody-User = nobody Nobody-Group = nobody [Translation] Method = static,nsswitch [Static] bin@local = daemon ======= service rpcidmapd restart In /var/log/messages: Apr 16 11:26:37 tzalt rpc.idmapd[29848]: libnfsidmap: using domain: local Apr 16 11:26:37 tzalt rpc.idmapd[29848]: libnfsidmap: processing 'Method' list Apr 16 11:26:37 tzalt rpc.idmapd[29848]: libnfsidmap: loaded plugin libnfsidmap_static.so for method static Apr 16 11:26:37 tzalt rpc.idmapd[29848]: libnfsidmap: loaded plugin libnfsidmap_nsswitch.so for method nsswitch Apr 16 11:26:37 tzalt rpc.idmapd[29849]: Expiration time is 600 seconds.

My linux keeps logging me off when I run Firefox (how to debug)?
by Rock 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

This is a strange one to me. Just recently, my Centos 6 has been "gentle crashing" where it doesn't crash, per se, but the screen goes black, and the login prompt pops up. It only happens when I run Firefox and it only started happening this morning. However, it has happened a dozen times, and always when Firefox is running. It does NOT happen when Firefox is not running. I haven't tested with Chrome yet; so that's my next test - but - the question I have is: How do I log the events that are causing Centos to log me out of user1 and to present the login screen?

New motherboard - kernel panic
by Bowie Bailey 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

I had to replace the motherboard on one of my CentOS 4 systems and am now getting a kernel panic. When I try to boot up, I get this: Volume group "VolGroup00" not found ERROR: /bin/lvm exited abnormally! (pid 448) mount: error 6 mounting ext3 mount: error 2 mounting none switchroot: mount failed: 22 umount /initrd/dev failed: 2 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! (I apologize for any typos, I don't have a way to copy/paste from that screen) I can boot up with the boot CD, go into rescue mode and browse the files, so I know the drives are ok. I found some stuff online saying that I should recreate my initrd from rescue mode if the motherboard changed. I tried this, but am still getting the same results. Suggestions? Thanks, -- Bowie
