NFS problem: getattr ERROR: Request couldn't be completed in time
by Matthias Leopold 31 May '16

31 May '16

i posted this also to linux-nfs, maybe this is a more appropriate place as it's clearly a "user" problem ### hi, i'm trying to mount a NFS 4 share with "sec=sys" from a NetApp FAS3250 on a CentOS KVM guest. this doesn't work, the mount doesn't complete and hangs. mount command is: /bin/mount -v -t nfs -s -o vers=4.1,sec=sys 10.110.96.90:/home /home/cir what i'm seeing in tcpdump is: 08:36:48.875019 IP 10.110.96.112.2456702824 > 10.110.96.90.2049: 212 getattr fh 0,1/53 08:36:48.875355 IP 10.110.96.90.2049 > 10.110.96.112.2456702824: reply ok 96 getattr ERROR: Request couldn't be completed in time server: 10.110.96.90 client: 10.110.96.112 status of nfs services: nfslock: running rpcbind: running rpcidmapd: stopped this happens with a centos 6 _and_ a centos 7 client (both KVM guests). NFS 3 mount of the share doesn't work either. other kvm guests (centos 6) on the same physical host can mount the share with no problem. the netapp admin tells me there's "no problem" on his side. iptables is disabled of course. ### what could be the problem on my (client) side? could this be a kvm problem? kvm host is centos 6. network mode is "bridge". network driver is "virtio". thx for any advice matthias

Status of RPMFusion repo for CentOS 5 and 6 ?
by Nicolas Kovacs 31 May '16

31 May '16

Hi, I have to maintain (and eventually beef up) desktop clients in public libraries running CentOS 5 and 6. The hardware is still OK, though sometimes really old, so the least evil will be to keep CentOS 5 on the old machines until that version is EOL. I've been using CentOS 5 as my main system somewhere between 2007 and 2009. At the time the RPMForge was my favorite third-party repository, though I understand that project is dead. I'm looking for a clean and viable solution to replace this. Here's what I intend to do. 1. Configure the base, updates and extra repos with a priority of 1. 2. Configure EPEL with a priority of 10. 3. Configure RPMFusion with a priority of 10. Now I don't know about the status of RPMFusion. Is this third-party repo still maintained? I wonder, since their home page only gives information about RHEL/CentOS 5 and 6. From what I understand, it's healthy to mix it with an EL+EPEL base. I'm planning to add some basic (and somewhat extended) multimedia capability to those desktop clients, so packages like mplayer, ffmpeg, lame and the likes will come in handy. For eventually missing packages (like eventually an old version of VLC for reading DVDs), I'll just grab the SRPMS from the old RPMForge repo and setup my own repo after building them locally.

CENTOS 7.2.1511 Multipath and boot from SAN issue
by Fabien Ledoux 31 May '16

31 May '16

Hi all, I'm running a Centos 7.2.1511 freshly installed on a SAN device. Everything is fine on the SAN side, but I have an issue with multipath or udev or systemd, I'm not sure. I when I boot my machine with the multipathd service enabled at boot, boot fails beacause some partitions on the multipathed device are missing from /dev. >From the boot rescue shell, if I do a fdisk -l /dev/mapper/mpatha, I see 8 partitions, if I do a ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ I see only 6 devices, so two devices are missing. I have to run kpartx -a /dev/mapper/mpatha manually in order to reread the partition table and recreate the 2 missing device. Only after that I'm able to boot correctly. Any idea of te root cause of this issue ? device-mapper-multipath is 0.4.9-85.el7_2.4.x86_64 Thanks for your time.

by Sorin Srbu 31 May '16

Hi all, Just tested the new CentOS 6.8 release on a few VMs and a physical box and got a kernel panic. Is it just me, or anybody else as well? Just fishing for now, will look into the issue more thoroughly later today. -- BW, Sorin ----------------------------------------------------------- # Sorin Srbu, Sysadmin # Uppsala University # Dept of Medicinal Chemistry # Div of Org Pharm Chem # Box 574 # SE-75123 Uppsala # Sweden # # Phone: +46 (0)18-4714482 # Visit: BMC, Husargatan 3, D5:512b # Web: http://www.orgfarm.uu.se ----------------------------------------------------------- # O< ASCII ribbon campaign - Against html E-mail # http://tinyurl.com/ascii-ribbon-campaign # # This message was not sent from an iProduct! # # Please consider the environment before printing this email. # Join the campaign at http://thinkBeforePrinting.org # # MotD follows: # The best prophet of the future is the past.

CentOS 6 spontaneous reboots
by Bill Gee 30 May '16

30 May '16

Hello everyone - My CentOS 6.8 server has been rebooting itself every 2 to 4 hours for the last several days. I do not know where to look for logs that might give a clue what the problem is. There are no unusual entries in /var/log/messages. I looked over other log files in /var/log and found nothing suggestive. Where else can I look? By luck I saw the beginning of a reboot on the server console. Normally I have other systems up on the KVM switch. It appears to have dumped core. I don't know where to look for the core dump files. They are not in /root. The problem started while the server was still 6.7. It had almost 290 days of uptime when the problem started. I have tried the following, none of which made any difference. I ran the upgrade to 6.8. I tried stopping non-essential services two at a time. I ran MemTest 86+. No memory errors were found. I turned off swap. I unplugged the USB hard drive that I use to hold daily and weekly backups. It was being recognized as /dev/sda for some reason. Lm_sensors shows the processor running between 45 and 50C. Hddtemp shows the hard drives running between 35 and 40C. LM_Sensors does not produce valid data on fan speed, but a visual check shows all fans running normally and no build-up of dust. The system is behind a big UPS that runs several other systems. The UPS log file does not record any power failures and none of the other systems are rebooting at random. What else can I look at? Thanks - Bill Gee

grub (?) issue on Optiplex 780 A15, 6.8 upgrade
by Zube 30 May '16

30 May '16

Most of the upgrades to CentOS 6.8 have gone smoothly. Thanks, as always, for all the work that goes into making it so easy to upgrade. On a few machines, however, all of them curiously: Dell Inc. OptiPlex 780 /0C27VV, BIOS A15 08/06/2013 There is something wrong with their interaction with grub (?). I noticed this after adding '3' to the module line to get it to runlevel 3, but the machine came up at runlevel 5 anyway. On machines that are working correctly, the dmesg output looks like this: Command line: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 ro root=UUID=20a8bd64-5783-4007-a5e4-e41bfc07f3c8 intel_iommu=on rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rd_NO_MD SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 crashkernel=auto KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us rd_NO_DM rhgb rdblacklist=nouveau quiet if the options are on the module line or like this: Command line: ro root=UUID=7d11ff13-106f-42df-9a41-9ebf2505f6d2 rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us rhgb quiet crashkernel=auto rdblacklist=nouveau if the options are on the kernel line. But on the offending machines, it looks like this: Command line: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 ro root=UUID=2a0a0120-8155-4ef4-8048-c82567746ca9 intel_iommu=on amd_iommu=on rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rd_NO_MD SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 crashkernel=auto KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us rd_NO_DM rhgb quiet rdblacklist=nouveaulevel: RAID 0: Stripes data (performance). RAID 1: Mirrors data (redundancy). Recovery: Copies data between a master and a recovery disk. So something seems to be scribbling somewhere where it shouldn't. These machines are not RAIDed in any way and I'm confident that I didn't see this problem when I upgraded to 6.7. If I reduce the length of the module line, it just scribbles a bit further back, i.e. "rdblacklist=nouveau1(Mirror)" Any advice appreciated. Cheers, Zube
