Linux ate my RAM...
by Kwan Lowe 20 Nov '15

20 Nov '15

Hello everyone, Excuse the title. I'm trying to do something very specific that goes against some common assumptions. I am aware of how Linux uses available memory to cache. This, in almost all cases, is desirable. I've spent years explaining to users how to properly read the free output. I'm now trying to increase VM density on host systems (by host, I mean the physical system, not the underlying guest machines). VMWare can over-allocate memory as long as it's not being used. Because of caching, from VMWare's perspective, all Linux memory is being "used". I am aware of the inherent risks in over-allocation of resources on a VMWare system.This tuning is strictly for development systems where performance and stability are not as critical. The increase in vm density is an acceptable tradeoff. My questions: 1) What options are available in CentOS to limit the page cache? SuSe has vm.pagecache_limit_mb and vm.pagecache_limit_ignore_dirty which, in conjunction with swappiness tweaks, appears to do what I need. 2) Any experience with enabling /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run on non-KVM workloads? As KSM only applies to non-pagecache memory, it doesn't immediately help me here but could be incrementally useful (https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/vm/ksm.txt) 3) Is there any way to control /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches and limit it to a number of entries or age? Dropping the filesystem cache, though it unmarks those pages, has performance implications. Thanks in advance for any input or links.

Intel SSD
by Birta Levente 20 Nov '15

20 Nov '15

Hi I have a supermicro server, motherboard is with C612 chipset and beside that with LSI3108 raid controller integrated. Two Intel SSD DC S3710 200GB. OS: Centos 7.1 up to date. My problem is that the Intel SSD Data Center Tool (ISDCT) does not recognize the SSD drives when they connected to the standard S-ATA ports on the motherboard, but through the LSI raid controller is working. Does somebody know what could be the problem? I talked to the Intel support and they said the problem is that Centos is not supported OS ... only RHEL 7. But if not supported should not work on the LSI controlled neither. Thanks, -- Levi

OT: bareos
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 19 Nov '15

Hi, folks, I've got it set up, and it alleges that it's backing up Windows. However, when I try to run a restore for a Windows box, in bconsole, I say restore, then from most recent, then the client, and I want to select files. It builds its directory tree (it says), then tells me it's at c:/ (*Nix, not Win backslash)... and there's nothing there. The fileset stanza says to back up File = "c:/Users" Am I doing something wrong? Do I need a separate template stanza just for Windows? mark

Any idea how to install PDSH on CentOS 7?
by Julius Lerm 19 Nov '15

Does anyone have any idea how to install PDSH on CentOS 7? PDSH seems to be completely missing from EPEL now, for CentOS 7. Is there another repository available where we can get PDSH? Thanks, Julius

Running Fedora under CentOS via systemd-nspawn?
by Matt Garman 18 Nov '15

18 Nov '15

tl;dr - Is anybody "running" a Fedora system via systemd-nspawn under CentOS? Long version: Before CentOS 7, I used chroot to create "lightweight containers" where I could cleanly add extra repos and/or software without the risk of "polluting" my main system (and potentially ending up in dependency hell). The primary driver for this was MythTV, which has dozens of deps that span multiple repos. Without "containing" the MythTV installation within a chroot environment, I would inevitably lead to conflicts when doing a yum update. When I upgraded to CentOS 7, I found out that systemd-nspawn is "chroot on steroids". After figuring it all out, I replicated my MythTV "container", and things were great. Now I have a need for a particular piece of software: HandBrake. I found this site[1] that packages it for both Fedora and CentOS. But the CentOS version is a little older, as the latest HandBrake requires gtk3. The latest version is available for Fedora however. So I thought, what if I could "run" Fedora under systemd-nspawn. Well, I definitely *can* do it. I copied the base Fedora filesystem layout off the Live CD, then booted into it via systemd-nspawn. I was able to add repos (including the one for HandBrake), and actually install then run the HandBrake GUI. So while this does work, I'm wondering if it's safe? I'm thinking that at least some of the Fedora tools assume that they are running under a proper Fedora kernel, whereas in my scheme, they are running under a CentOS kernel. I'm sure there have been changes to the kernel API between the CentOS kernel and the Fedora kernel. Am I risking system stability by doing this? Anyone have any thoughts or experience doing something like this, i.e. running "foreign" Linux distros under CentOS via systemd-nspawn? What if I tried to do this with Debian or Arch or Gentoo?
