CentOS 8 Boot.iso image DHCP4 not working?
by Young, Gregory 24 Sep '19

24 Sep '19

I'm just wondering if anyone else is not getting a DHCPv4 address in Anaconda, using the CentOS 8 Boot.iso image? I get an IPv6 Autoconfig address, but it doesn't want to pick up a DHCPv4. This is in a Hyper-V Gen2 VM, connected to the same network all my other dev VMs are on, and picking up DHCPv4 without issue. And, congratz to the CentOS team on 2 releases in a week (or so)!

HI All - Great work on 7.7 and 8.0! Will there be a "Everything" iso coming ? perhaps just not sync'd yet on mirrors? Does 7.7 support an upgrade to 8 path ? Thanks! all great stuff. Jerry

updates repo for 8
by sberg＠mississippi.com 24 Sep '19

24 Sep '19

I've checked a couple of mirrors and centos.org itself and I don't see updates for the 8 repos yet. Is there a new location for updates now that we're seeing the 8 repos or do I just need to wait for the repos to get a chance to synchronize fully?

CO 7.7.1908 Updates not getting to mirrors?
by Phelps, Matthew 24 Sep '19

24 Sep '19

I *know* there has been a lot going on, and congratulations on getting CentOS 8 out! But(!), I don't see any updates to CO 7.7.1908 in the "updates" directory on the mirrors I typically use. All the files date from Sept. 14th. Is something broken? -- *Matt Phelps* *Information Technology Specialist, Systems Administrator* (Computation Facility, Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory) Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian 60 Garden Street | MS 39 | Cambridge, MA 02138 email: mphelps(a)cfa.harvard.edu cfa.harvard.edu | Facebook <http://cfa.harvard.edu/facebook> | Twitter <http://cfa.harvard.edu/twitter> | YouTube <http://cfa.harvard.edu/youtube> | Newsletter <http://cfa.harvard.edu/newsletter>

Interesting update problem
by isdtor 24 Sep '19

24 Sep '19

I had problems updating a 7.6 machine to 7.7, so I reinstalled it from scratch and applied all the 7.6 updates, then attempted the 7.7 upgrade again. It failed with the same errors. I'm wondering where the problem is? # yum update ... [hundreds of lines of the next line] warning: Unable to get systemd shutdown inhibition lock Error in PRETRANS scriptlet in rpm package 1:java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless-1.8.0.222.b10-1.el7_7.x86_64 Error in PRETRANS scriptlet in rpm package 1:java-11-openjdk-headless-11.0.4.11-1.el7_7.x86_64 Error in PRETRANS scriptlet in rpm package kmod-kvdo-6.1.2.41-5.el7.x86_64 mesa-libEGL-devel-18.3.4-5.el7.x86_64 was supposed to be installed but is not! Verifying : mesa-libEGL-devel-18.3.4-5.el7.x86_64 1/3285 [repeating for dozens or hundreds of other packages] ... Failed: [list of all upgrade packages] Of course mesa-libEGL-devel-18.3.4-5.el7.x86_64 is not installed, that's the new version. The installed version is mesa-libEGL-devel-18.0.5-4.el7_6.x86_64. Where did it all go wrong? I tried clearing the yum cache and rebuilding the rpm db, no joy. Another 7.6 machine upgraded fine, although from a smaller installed package set.

deprecations leading up to C8
by Fred Smith 23 Sep '19

23 Sep '19

Was reading the long list of things being deprecated in the RHEL 8 release notes t'other day, and saw my old friend sendmail on the list. I've stuck by her because I've learned how she likes to be stroked to get the best out of her, and quail at the thought of taking on a new MTA and having to learn it all all over again. But I guess I'm going to have to, soon or late, probably sooner than later. :( Can anyone point me to resources specifically for helping us ignorant folk in converting all the arcan-ity in sendmail.mc into something equivalent for Postfix? Thanks in advancce!

Hello, I'm working with an employer that is looking to hire a permanent front end architect to join their London office.

7.7.1908, interface bonding, and default route
by Carlos A. Carnero Delgado 20 Sep '19

20 Sep '19

Hi! I just upgraded a machine to 7.7.1908 and the default route is not being set on boot. This particular server has a bonded interface, and the corresponding configuration for the master is ( /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0): TYPE=Bond BOOTPROTO=none DEFROUTE=yes IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes NAME=bond0 DEVICE=bond0 ONBOOT=yes IPADDR=10.3.20.131 PREFIX=24 GATEWAY=10.3.20.1 DNS1=10.3.2.8 BONDING_MASTER=yes BONDING_OPTS="mode=802.3ad xmit_hash_policy=layer2 miimon=100" The slaves (two of them) are configured like TYPE=Ethernet BOOTPROTO=none NAME=bond0-slave0 DEVICE=em3 ONBOOT=yes MASTER=bond0 SLAVE=yes After booting, the routing table is 10.3.20.0/24 dev bond0 proto kernel scope link src 10.3.20.131 metric 300 with no default route configured (manually adding it will work, of course.) This machine worked perfectly before, and it did during previous upgrades and reboots. Has anyone ever had this problem before? Thanks, Carlos.

running init disconnects ssh session
by Stephen Berg (Code 7309) 20 Sep '19

20 Sep '19

Noticing a new behavior lately. Logged in via sshd and ssh keys as root to a remote system. When changing runlevels between multi-user or graphical the ssh session is disconnected. It's not a big deal but annoying if I have other tasks to do on that particular system. I've tried logging in as normal user, su to root and it still disconnects the ssh session upon either an "init 3" or "systemctl isolate multi-user.target" command. -- Stephen Berg, IT Specialist, Ocean Sciences Division, Code 7309 Naval Research Laboratory W: (228) 688-5738 <- (Preferred contact) DSN: (312) 823-5738 C: (228) 365-0162
