Tar CentOS installation and transfer it to new server
by Mike 30 Jun '15

30 Jun '15

Current Installation: CentOS 7.1503 with SerNet Samba 4 ver. 4.1.17 configured as Active Directory Domain Controller. Current Installation: HP Workstation with dual Xeon quadcore cpu's and 4 x SATA hard drives NOT configured in RAID array. New Installation: CentOS 7.1503 minimal install New Installation: SuperMicro with single Xeon quadcore cpu and 4 x SATA hard drives configured in two pairs of RAID 1. The Current Install is about 3.5 GB's and has my Samba 4 setup all solid and working well. I want to know if it's possible to simply: - tar up the whole root partition - put it on a USB drive - boot the New server with a livecd - chroot into / partition - unpack the tar'ed root (/) from the USB drive into the New server root (/). Both installs used the automatic partitioning from anaconda, so /boot is on a separate partition. Each server has an initrd and kernel that works from /boot partition. Both CentOS installs are setup using the xfs filesystem on the root (/) partition. I saw someone do this successfully once but they left out certain directories like /srv , /tmp , and /var. But I'm not 100% certain which directories need to be left out of the tarball. Has anyone done this before? Do you know if it's doable? Thanks for reading.

Qemu 2.x on CentOS 7?
by Robert Fitzpatrick 30 Jun '15

30 Jun '15

Is there any way to get the latest Qemu to run on CentOS 7? I'm looking for a way to create backup snapshots, but the current install says: [root@vhost1 ~]# virsh snapshot-create-as myvm snapshot1 "snapshot1 description" error: Operation not supported: live disk snapshot not supported with this QEMU binary -- Robert

CentOS 6 gcc is a bit old
by Michael Hennebry 30 Jun '15

30 Jun '15

gcc (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-11) is a bit old. There have been major changes since then. I'd like a newer version. If I have to, I expect that I can install from source. I'd rather not. Is there a CentOS 6-compatible repository from which I can get a newer version? Does a standard CentOS 7 repository have a newer version? Does a CentOS 7-compatible repository have a newer version? It's my understanding that to compile from source, I will need to keep the gcc I have. Otherwise I would have nothing to compile the source. I expect that providing the right options will let old and new co-exist. Is ensuring that I get the right gcc when I type "gcc" just a matter of having the right search path for gcc? Will I need to do anything interesting to ensure that the resulting executables run using the right libraries? I've installed from source before, but never to replace an existing compiler. My concern is that if I louse things up, the mess could be very hard to fix. -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "SCSI is NOT magic.

Re: [CentOS] Using a CentOS 6 Machine as a gateway/router/home server

A consistent set of expectations does wonders for debugging odd-ball occurrences. Why learn the idiosyncrasies of two distros when one suffices? Just start with a minimal CentOS install on your router/gateway and add only the packages that you know that you need. Any critical omission will evidence itself in short order and can be added then; or the source of the need removed as circumstance warrants. -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** Do NOT transmit sensitive data via e-Mail James B.

Rather than doing double routing, I connect one of the WiFi's LAN connections via a switch to my Router via a switch, leaving the WiFi Router's WAN conection unused. That way, my gateway (and not the WiFi router) is the DHCP server, and can enforce whatever firewall rules I want to apply. No need to give up your guest WiFi if you stick with a Centos gateway.

Old and new package version numbers during RPM update
by Anand Buddhdev 29 Jun '15

29 Jun '15

Hi CentOS folk, In an RPM post-install script, is it possible to know the previous version number, and the new version number of a package if it's an update? I need to know this, because for a certain package, if updating from version 1.x to 2.x, I need to run a program to convert the config file of the package from version 1.x format to version 2.x format. I've looked at SPEC file documentation, but haven't found anything relevant. Regards, Anand
