qemu-sparc, not to be confused with qemu-system-sparc
by John Chludzinski 17 Jul '19

17 Jul '19

I installed CentOS 7.6 then installed all things QEMU on my machine. I have a SPARC image I need to bringing up in a VM. I've been using *qemu-system-sparc *on a box on which I have Fedora-30 installed. $ qemu-system-sparc -m 256 -hda solaris_v2-qemu_v2.2.0.disk -nographic -bios ./openbios-sparc32 Can I use *qemu-sparc* to bring up my Solaris image: *solaris_v2-qemu_v2.2.0.disk* ? If so, how? It's not apparent and there's almost no info on it. BTW, *qemu-sparc* come with (on CentOS 7.6) when you: $ sudo yum install qemu* *PS> I've tried to install qemu-system-sparc on my CentOS box but ended up in a never-ending whack-a-mole game of dependencies.*

Question on screen capture from command line
by Jerry Geis 16 Jul '19

16 Jul '19

I am trying to get the screen capture to work from command line (remotely). I am getting the wrong screen shot. This is what xrandr is giving me... xrandr --query Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767 DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI2 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1600mm x 900mm 1920x1080 120.00*+ 100.00 119.88 60.00 50.00 59.94 30.00 25.00 24.00 29.97 23.98 3840x2160 30.00 25.00 24.00 29.97 23.98 1920x1080i 60.00 50.00 59.94 1280x1024 60.02 1360x768 60.02 1152x864 59.97 1280x720 60.00 50.00 59.94 1024x768 60.00 800x600 60.32 720x576 50.00 720x576i 50.00 720x480 60.00 59.94 640x480 60.00 59.94 720x400 70.08 VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) I'm thinking its giving me one of the other screens. Not the HDMI2 screen. What do I do ? It is definitely not the current screen shot. I have tried both xwd and import - same wrong result. Or - as a thought - how to I get RID of the other screens - and just have 1. The computer has an intel chipset. 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 35) Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello list. Have someone installed windows server 2019 desktop on centos 7 kvm? Any tips? I have done it but I'm not sure if everything is OK. First of all, I cant ping the virt IP, although I connect through remote! Second, I cant activate windows and I'm pretty sure I have the right code... Thank you in advance, Nikos.

Alternative to laptop
by H 14 Jul '19

14 Jul '19

I am considering buying a small, and therefore easily portable, computer as an alternative to the laptop I already have. Obviously it would not have battery, a screen, nor a keyboard etc. but more or less be an easily portable computing unit to move between offices where a keyboard and monitor(s) could then be connected. I want to run CentOS 7, later CentOS 8. The smaller, the better, however, there are certain key features I would like to have: - HDMI for 2 monitors - USB for keyboard - 2 extra USB for eg external harddisk etc. - both wifi and at least Gb Ethernet cable connector Probably at least 16 Gb of memory, capability to drive two high-resolution monitors and whatever else might be nice such as SSD of at least 256 Gb. Size wise it would be nice if it were no larger than a "book", whatever size that might be. Does anyone use something like the above, or know of a computer meeting the above criteria?

Server fails to boot
by Rob Kampen 14 Jul '19

14 Jul '19

First some history. This is an Intel MB and processor some 6 years old, initially running CentOS 6. It has 4 x 1TB sata drives set up in two mdraid 1 mirrors. It has performed really well in a rural setting with frequent power cuts which the UPS has dealt with and auto shuts down the server after a few minutes and then auto restarts when power is restored. The clients needed a Windoze server for a proprietary accounting package they use, thus I have recently installed two SSD drives (500GB each) also in a raid 1 mirror and installed CentOS 7 as the host and also VirtualBox running Windoze 10. The hard drives continue to hold their data files. This appeared to work just fine until a few days ago. After a power cut the server would not reboot. It takes a while to get in front of the machine, add a monitor, keyboard and mouse only to find: Warning: /dev/disk/by-id/md-uuid-xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx does not exist repeated three times - one for each of the /, /boot, and swap raid member sets along with a Warning: /dev/disk/by-uuid/xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx does not exist for the /dev/md125 which is the actual raid 1 / device. The system is in a root shell of some sort as it has not made the transition from initramfs to the mdraid root drive. there are some other lines of info and a txt file with hundreds of lines of boot info, ending with the above info (as I recall). I tried a reboot - same result, rebooted and tried an earlier kernel - same result, tried a reboot to the recovery kernel and all went well. System comes up, all raids sets are up and in sync - no errors. So, no apparent H/W issues, no mdraid issues apparently, but none of the regular kernels will now boot. a blkid shows all the expected mdraid devices with the uuids from the error message all in place as expected. I did a yum reinstall of the most recent kernel as I thought that may repair any /boot file system problems - particularly initramfs, but no difference, will not boot, same exact error messages. Thus I now have it running on the recovery kernel, with all the required server functions being performed, albeit on an out of date kernel. Google has one solved problem similar to mine but the solution was change the BIOS from AHCI to IDE - that does not seem correct as I have not changed BIOS, although I have not checked it at this time. Another solution talks about a race condition and the md raid not being ready when required during the boot process and thus to add delay in the kernel boot line in grub2. Although no one indicated this actually worked. Another proposed solution is to mount the failed devices from a recovery boot and rebuild initramfs. Before I do this I would like to ask those that know a little more about the boot process, what is going wrong? I can believe the most recent initramfs being a problem, but all three other kernels too?? Yet the recovery kernel works just fine. As the system is remote, I would like some understanding of what's up before I do any changes - if a reboot occurs and fails, it will mean another trip. Oh, one other thing, it seems the UPS is not working correctly, thus it may not have shut down cleanly. Working to replace batteries in the UPS. TIA for your insight.

Script to Check 7.x Hardware Compatibility?
by Tim Evans 12 Jul '19

12 Jul '19

I have a vague recollection--from several years back--there was once a script out there that could be run on a CentOS 6.x system to test its hardware compatibility for CentOS 7. (Not talking about a script to actually do any upgrade; just check a system's hardware.) Does anyone remember this? Remember the details? Thanks. -- Tim Evans |5 Chestnut Court 443-394-3864 |Owings Mills, MD 21117

Scope of classes in CFE 3.10.2 on CentOS 7
by Meikel 12 Jul '19

12 Jul '19

Hi folks, I have a question concerning scope of classes in CFEngine 3. I run CFE 3.10.2 on CentOS 7.4. # cf-agent -V CFEngine Core 3.10.2 # cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core) I'm logged in as root and located in current working dir /root. I have the following file # ll ./samples/scope_of_class.cf -rwx------. 1 root root 720 10. Jul 16:33 ./samples/scope_of_class.cf with content ----BEGIN---------------------------------- bundle agent scope_of_class() { vars: any:: "web_servers" slist => { "ws-1.example.com", "ws-2.example.com", "webserver.example.com", }; methods: any:: "scope_of_class_b1" usebundle => scope_of_class_b1( $(scope_of_class.web_servers) ); } bundle agent scope_of_class_b1( server ) { classes: any:: "is_dir" expression => isdir( "/tmp/scope_of_class/$(server)" ), scope => "bundle"; reports: is_dir:: "is_dir is SET"; !is_dir:: "is_dir is UNset"; any:: "server = $(server)"; } ----END------------------------------------ From my understanding the scope "bundle" is default for a class definition inside a bundle of type agent, but I added the scope to be sure. The definition of class is_dir should depend on directories existing inside /tmp/scope_of_class. I have two subdirectories # ls -1 /tmp/scope_of_class/ webserver.example.com ws-1.example.com but when I run CFE I do NOT get expected behaviour for the definition of class is_dir: # cf-agent -IK --file ./samples/scope_of_class.cf --bundlesequence scope_of_class info: Using command line specified bundlesequence R: is_dir is SET R: server = ws-1.example.com R: is_dir is UNset R: server = ws-2.example.com R: server = webserver.example.com When the bundle scope_of_class_b1 is processed for parameter webserver.example.com I expect is_dir to bet set, but from the report it seems not to be set. If I change the slist definition to hold "webserver.example.com" as the first entry, then the class is_dir is set correctly: # grep slist ./samples/scope_of_class.cf -A 4 "web_servers" slist => { "webserver.example.com", "ws-1.example.com", "ws-2.example.com", }; # cf-agent -IK --file ./samples/scope_of_class.cf --bundlesequence scope_of_class info: Using command line specified bundlesequence R: is_dir is SET R: server = webserver.example.com R: server = ws-1.example.com R: is_dir is UNset R: server = ws-2.example.com It also works "correct" (or as expected by me) if "ws-2.example.com" is first entry in the slist definition: # grep slist ./samples/scope_of_class.cf -A 4 "web_servers" slist => { "ws-2.example.com", "ws-1.example.com", "webserver.example.com", }; # cf-agent -IK --file ./samples/scope_of_class.cf --bundlesequence scope_of_class info: Using command line specified bundlesequence R: is_dir is UNset R: server = ws-2.example.com R: is_dir is SET R: server = ws-1.example.com R: server = webserver.example.com I do not understand why the ordering inside slist influences how the class is_dir will be defined later by CFE for each processing of scope_of_class_b1. Some background information: my aim is to create webserver vhost configuration files where I have two variants, one with SSL configuration and one without SSL configuration. Which one to configure depends if the directory with the SSL certificate exists for a given vhost or not. I'll replace the report promise type by a file promise type, which should bring the correct vhost configuration file in place, assumed that I understand how the scope of the class definition works. Thanks in advance for any help or explanation of that behaviour. Regards, Meikel

screen shot centos 7

HI All, I have some remote computers - at times I issue commands to take screen shots. I use xwd -silent -root or import -silent -window root to do so. It seems at times the screen capture is the actual current content. It might be a previous displayed item etc... Anyone ran across this or thoughts ? Jerry

CentOS 7 hibernation laptop
by H 10 Jul '19

10 Jul '19

I have a recent Dell Inspiron laptop on which I installed CentOS 7. I have, however, failed somewhere since I do not have a hibernate option when shutting down, only a suspend option. I believe I created the necessary hibernation partition large enough for the RAM the machine has, 16 Gb if I remember correctly. How do I identify where the problem lies?

32-bit CentOS
by Dave Close 10 Jul '19

10 Jul '19

It appears that CentOS 7 was the last one with a 32-bit version. I'm trying to install it on an older laptop and having some trouble. I have CentOS-7-i386-Everything-1810.iso and have verified it. Using either dd or mediawriter to put a copy on a 16 GB thumb drive seems to work. But then the laptop reports, "no boot image found". Note that the first 32 KB of the iso is all zeros, meaning that there is no MBR or partition table included. According to the 0_README.txt on the CentOS mirrors, the Everything ISO, "contains the complete set of packages for CentOS Linux 7. It can be used for installing or populating a local mirror. This image needs a 16GB USB flash drive as it is too large for DVD isos... You can burn these images to a DVD or 'dd' them to a USB flash drive. After the boot media has been prepared, boot the computer off the boot media." Does anyone know what I don't understand about this procedure? -- Dave Close, Compata, Irvine CA +1 714 434 7359 dave(a)compata.com dhclose(a)alumni.caltech.edu "Fairness is a concept that was invented so kids and idiots could participate in debates." --Dogbert

epoch rpm el8 obsolete?
by Leon Fauster 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

I am building a new workstation based on EL8 now. As someone else here mentioned, the raw EL8 distribution is unusable as a workstation. Therefore I am building lot of additional packages. Today I came across a problem with a custom package with an Epoch version, that kills the yum/dnf update process (it tries to find a "best" package etc.). My actually question; is the RPM Epoch stanza obsolete now (for EL8)? I remember that they also started to delete Groups categories ... -- LF

adding uefi to kickstart CentOS 7
by Jerry Geis 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

I am trying to add an efi partition to my working kickstart file. bootloader --driveorder=sda --append="rhgb quiet biosdevname=0 net.ifnames=0" clearpart --all --initlabel part / --ondisk=sda --fstype xfs --size=20000 --asprimary part swap --ondisk=sda --size=4000 --asprimary part /boot/efi --ondisk=sda --fstype efi --size=1000 --asprimary part /home --ondisk=sda --fstype xfs --size=1 --asprimary --grow the line with /boot/efi is the only new item other then "removing" --location=mbr from the bootloader line. The install is not working. It stops on the Installation part with selections 1-8. I see no errors on screen - but the selection for "Install source" has a "!" and "error setting up install source" is there. when I goto another console and run fdisk -l /dev/sda nothing shows so my partitions are not getting setup. What did I miss to setup efi ? Thanks, Jerry
