Slow RAID resync
by Jeff Allison 18 Mar '14

18 Mar '14

OK todays problem. I have a HP N54L Microserver running centos 6.5. In this box I have a 3x2TB disk raid 5 array, which I am in the process of extending to a 4x2TB raid 5 array. I've added the new disk --> mdadm --add /dev/md0 /dev/sdb And grown the array --> mdadm --grow /dev/md0 --raid-devices=4 Now the problem the resync speed is v slow, it refuses to rise above 5MB, in general it sits at 4M. from looking at glances it would appear that writing to the new disk is the bottle neck, /dev/sdb is the new disk. Disk I/O In/s Out/s md0 0 0 sda1 0 0 sda2 0 1K sdb1 3.92M 0 sdc1 24.2M 54.7M sdd1 11.2M 54.7M sde1 16.3M 54.7M I partitiioned the disk with --> parted -a optimal /dev/sdb [root@nas ~]# parted -a optimal /dev/sdb GNU Parted 2.1 Using /dev/sdb Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands. (parted) p Model: ATA ST2000DM001-1E61 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdb: 2000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 2000GB 2000GB primary ntfs raid There is no ntfs filesystem on the disk, I've still not worked out how to remove that flag. I've followed the article here --> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-raid-increase-resync-rebuild-speed.html to attempt to speed it up but no joy. Any Ideas what I've done wrong? parted output [root@nas ~]# parted -l Model: ATA ST31000528AS (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 1000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 525MB 524MB primary ext4 boot 2 525MB 1000GB 1000GB primary lvm Model: ATA ST2000DM001-1E61 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdb: 2000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 2000GB 2000GB primary ntfs raid Model: ATA ST2000DM001-9YN1 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdc: 2000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 2000GB 2000GB primary raid Model: ATA WDC WD25EZRS-00J (scsi) Disk /dev/sdd: 2500GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 2000GB 2000GB primary ntfs raid Model: ATA ST2000DL001-9VT1 (scsi) Disk /dev/sde: 2000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 2000GB 2000GB primary raid

Problem with RW_MOUNT in a diskless system
by Allan Wu 18 Mar '14

18 Mar '14

Hello everyone, I have a problem with setting up a diskless system on CentOS. Currently I have successfully set up a small cluster of diskless clients following the following available HowTos: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/DisklessClients https://coda.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/CentOS6_Linux_Diskless_Setup The client system is CentOS 5.10 and the system is read-only. It has been working fine for a while (although I discard some initiation errors, but as of functionality it is working). But recently when I tried to setup autofs to mount some of the directories from NIS server, I've been having problems because /etc/mtab is not writable. I have enabled temporary state in the OS, please find below my /etc/sysconfig/readonly-root: ==================== # Set to 'yes' to mount the system filesystems read-only. READONLY=yes # Set to 'yes' to mount various temporary state as either tmpfs # or on the block device labelled RW_LABEL. Implied by READONLY TEMPORARY_STATE=yes # Place to put a tmpfs for temporary scratch writable space RW_MOUNT=/var/lib/stateless/writable #RW_MOUNT= # Label on local filesystem which can be used for temporary scratch space RW_LABEL=stateless-rw # Options to use for temporary mount RW_OPTIONS= # Label for partition with persistent data STATE_LABEL=stateless-state # Where to mount to the persistent data STATE_MOUNT=/var/lib/stateless/state # Options to use for peristent mount STATE_OPTIONS= CLIENTSTATE=10.0.0.1:/common/diskless/x86/RHEL5/snapshot Now my solution is making a symbolic link for /etc/mtab to its snapshot in /var/lib/stateless/writable. However, since by default it is mounted on tmpfs instead of NFS, every time the machine reboot, mtab is lost and there are all kinds of problem. So I created another mtab.bak and copy that to the RW_MOUNT when system start. That solves my problem, although I feel the approach is really ugly. So my questions are below: 1. How to mount my RW_MOUNT on my NFS snapshot directory by default? The instructions are not clear on this part. 2. If I can use NFS as snapshot, how do I tell the system which file I want to use the writable version in RW_MOUNT, is there a more elegant way to do that? 3. Could someone points me some direction or background on the snapshot idea? I've looked into /etc/rc.sysinit and saw the part to mount the stateless directory, but more information could be helpful. Thank you in advance!

How do graphical admin tools requiring root get authentication?
by Samuel Winchenbach 17 Mar '14

17 Mar '14

Hi All, I have created a CentOS 6.5 OpenStack image using kickstart. I have noticed that when connecting directly to the Virtual Machine's console (think connecting directly to the physical machine) all of the system-config, firewall configuration, application update and install GUI applications work fine and prompt for root login when executed. Hoever if I connect to the VM using xrdp with a tiger-vncserver backend the apps either do not work, or take several minutes to prompt for the root password. Here is a post I made in the forums that has no response: https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=45307&sid=865afae345fe83… It looks like my problem may be that when I do a ck-list-sessions the device/terminal information does not seem to be known: Session2: unix-user = '500' realname = '(null)' seat = 'Seat2' session-type = '' active = FALSE x11-display = '' x11-display-device = '' display-device = '' remote-host-name = '' is-local = TRUE on-since = '2014-03-06T17:23:07.718097Z' login-session-id = '4294967295' I have tried disabling selinux, modifying the startwm.sh script included with xrdp to launch the session with "ck-launch-session gnome-session". Neither seem to help. Does anyone have any idea what might be going, or an explanation of how authentication works when one of these apps requires root permission? Thanks! Sam

ethernet bridge setup
by Jerry Geis 17 Mar '14

17 Mar '14

I have a USB to ethernet device connected to CentOS 6.5 on my laptop. I setup ifcfg-eth0 and added BRIDGE=br0 on eth0 did service network restart, all came up. "seems" to be working. However when I plug an ethernet device into the USB port that is wanting DHCP it is not getting an address. Is there something I missed in the setup? I was expecting the device connected to the USB to be bridged to my same network and be able to get a DHCP address on the same network. Thanks, Jerry

Disk space warning ("gdu-notification-daemon" type) for remote systems
by Toralf Lund 17 Mar '14

17 Mar '14

//Hi,/ /I need to implement a system of disk space checks and warnings for a client-server setup running CentOS 6. Simply put, I just want a warning popup rather like the ones given by gdu-notification-daemon when server file system is full or nearly full, but they should appear on the client display(s) rather than locally, and must also work when nobody is logged directly in to the (server) system. What do you reckon is the best way of achieving this? I can think of ways to get what I want via scripts/custom programs/cron jobs, but perhaps there are "standard" solutions already? I'd like to avoid re-inventing the wheel... I also know that there are various advanced solutions for system resource monitoring out there - I've used Nagios in the past - but it may seem like setting up something like that will be an overkill in this case. So what's everyone's thoughts on this? - Toralf This e-mail, including any attachments and response string, may contain proprietary information which is confidential and may be legally privileged.

Can I second this please? Many corporate systems will block such messages and require the user to explicitly release them, which is at best a chore, sometimes impossible. Might I also point out that what is conversational in one country may be regarded as offensive in another, particularly by a dumb mail filter.
