crash after update please help!
by Hossein Lanjanian 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

For usinging some soft wares in my field of study (biology) I need to update centos. But there is a big problem. My laptop is vaio SB31FD. It is a dual boot system (Centoswith win7). It crashes when I reboot it after updating the CentOs kernel. There is not any new line(kernel name) in the grub page. There is only two options, CentOs and other(win7)!!! Win7 is okay, but after choosing Centos the next page is appeared and a blue line in the button of the page grows from left to right, but when its colour changes to the gray and one waits to see the login page, it crashes. There is not any message!!!! I installed, updated and encountered with this problem 4 times. Now, I am sure it related to the kernel update. I tried to solve the problem with "Rescue mode" option from CentOs DVD but I can not find any helpful command by googling. also, I did this work on my friend`s laptop(Dell vostro1510), but THere is the same problem.

6.3 installer keeps cycling in a 10 second countdown to boot
by Aleksey Tsalolikhin 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hi. I've been running CentOS 5 for ages. (Thanks!) I went to install 6.3 - I downloaded the 64-bit DVD 1 image, and put it on a USB drive. Booted into a screen that said boot will start in 10.. 9... 8.. 7.. 6.. 5.. 4.. 3.. 2.. 1.. 10.. and so on, infinite loop, the boot never starts. I tried booting in text mode, but it doesn't boot, just goes back to the menu. Is there some way to find out why the centos installer refuses to start? I used to have CentOS 5 on this system. I'd expect 6 to work. Thanks, Aleksey

Hi, I am trying to get ipv6 firewall running. I did a very simple ip6tables rules and noticed very long running yum updates. I think that happened because firewall is dropping outgoing packets to port 80. Well, I thought to mitigate the issue and changed outgoing from drop to reject. Now I try manually # strace telnet 2a02:180:ffff:1::551f:b966 80 ... connect(3, {sa_family=AF_INET6, sin6_port=htons(80), inet_pton(AF_INET6, "2a02:180:ffff:1::551f:b966", &sin6_addr), sin6_flowinfo=0, sin6_scope_id=0}, 28 3 second delay ) = -1 ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused) ... The ECONNREFUSED is quite expected of course, but what is not expected that the connect syscall lasts 3 seconds. This 3 second delay is not happening with a equivalent telnet to a IPv4 address. Why is this 3 second delay? -- Kind Regards, Markus Falb

Slow login to system without internet connection
by Ljubomir Ljubojevic 23 Nov '12

23 Nov '12

Hi. For a long time I am puzzled why, when internet connection is gone (beyond first router, outside of subnet) SSH (and telnet?) connection is drastically slowed. Same behavior, but less impacted is observed when system boots without working internet connection, and I am not sure, but I think even access to SAMBA fileshares can be/is affected. Affected systems are mostly production servers, and too spaced apart in time to be able to point a finger in something I am doing wrong. I have not had time to gather more facts, I always forget/don;t have time, so I will only focus on definite SSH issue on CentOS 6.3, although I have seen same with 5.x. 1 server in question is set in following maner: [root@chiron ~]# cat /etc/networks default 0.0.0.0 loopback 127.0.0.0 link-local 169.254.0.0 [root@chiron ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network NETWORKING=yes NTPSERVERARGS=iburst HOSTNAME=chiron.example.com [root@chiron ~]# cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 chiron.example.com chiron ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 chiron.example.com chiron Does it have anything to do with /etc/hosts file not having row with used IP address, or is problem somewhere else? Searching the net gives too much irrelevant links, and all I need it to be pointed in the right direction. -- Ljubomir Ljubojevic (Love is in the Air) PL Computers Serbia, Europe Google is the Mother, Google is the Father, and traceroute is your trusty Spiderman...

cannot install glibc.i686 on x86_64
by Kai Schaetzl 23 Nov '12

23 Nov '12

I cannot install glibc.i686 on a x86_64 system because I get Error: Missing Dependency: glibc-common = 2.5-81 is needed by package glibc-2.5-81.i686 (base) glibc-common.x86_64 is installed, but it's apparently looking for i686. There's indeed no glibc-common for i686. There's also glibc.i386 and glibc-common.i386 available, but I think I don't need them. I have other x86_64 systems that have an installed glibc.i686 and no glibc.i386 and glibc-common.i386. I don't remember how I did that, probably on first install. How do I get glibc.i686 with yum on the system? Kai

Dell Lattitude E5430 -- split screen
by Johan Vermeulen 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

Dear All, I installed CentOs on a brand new Dell Lattitude E5430. I did a minimal install, then did a "yum groupinstall Desktop" and I installed xorg-x11-drv-intel.i686. Also, I installed a i686 CentOs on a 64bit system, thinking because it has 4Gb or ram, It makes no difference. The screen is split top to bottom on the left hand side. This was quickly solved by adding "nomodeset" to the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst, however now I can't add an external monitor or beamer. Next I ran " Xorg -configure" and switched between vesa and intel driver, but the only thing that clears the spit screen so far is nomodeset. Here is some hardware info: *-display description: VGA compatible controller product: 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller vendor: Intel Corporation physical id: 2 bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0 version: 09 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: msi pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom configuration: driver=i915 latency=0 resources: irq:28 memory:f6c00000-f6ffffff memory:e0000000-efffffff(prefetchable) iopor t:f000(size=64) I googled this and found some posts ( not with Centos ) from people reporting this solved by updating BIOS and adapting all sorts of settings. Can anyone help me with this? Many thanks already. Greetings, J. -- Johan Vermeulen IT-medewerker Caw De Kempen johan.vermeulen(a)cawdekempen.be 0479.82.01.41 Opensource Software is the future.

How to prevent host boot problems with virtual client disk?
by Theo Band 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

I added one new disk to my Centos5 machine and I want to dedicate this disk to one of my virtual machines (also Centos5). After I added the (empty) disk the machine starts up fine and identified the disk as /dev/sdd It makes we wander what might happen to the host during a future (re)boot. The new disk will get a partition table and logical volumes, all which should be private to the client. The (KVM) host however will also see this disk during boot. My host volume group has a non standard name to prevent collision with the volume group name of the client (VolGroup00 for instance). I know I can even ignore the client group all together on the host. Now I am afraid that during boot time the host sees /dev/sdd as the first disk and tries to boot from it (bios update/reset for instance). Is this a real risk? My question is thus, how can I prevent that this (physical) client disk can be used for booting by the host without messing with the bios/cables? Should I first partition the disk and give one partition to the client (the disk than has a second disk layout stored on this partition). A similar thing can be done with a logical volume, but is this wise? Theo

Centos 6 Server has no GUI
by richard.hedin＠nokia.com 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

I believe I have the exact answer to "Centos 6 Server has no GUI" but I don't see how to attach my answer to that thread. I am running in Virtual Box on a Windows machine. When I changed my memory available from ½ Gb to 1 Gb , and my video memory to 24Mb, my installation script went from an interface reminiscent of MS-DOS in the 80's to a nice GUI installation, and my number of packages installed went from 200 and some to 1400 and some. Apparently, the installation identifies what your box is capable of, and installs only what's appropriate. And doesn't tell you! Regards, Rick

RoR 3.2 can get by on 1.8.7 but support for Ruby versions prior to 1.9.3 is being dropped in the forthcoming RoR v4 release. Thus, a RHEL/CentOS rpm package for Rails really will not give you much, if anything. I suggest that you investigate both RBENV and RVM as alternatives to using the rpm packaged Ruby. I advise you consider that for RoR projects the Bundler gem is the preferred way of installing and managing project specific packages, including Rails itself. The down side to this approach is that your production servers need to have development tools installed to build the Ruby interpreter and the support gems. The up side is that you can version specific ruby vms and gemsets on a project by project basis. https://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv https://rvm.io/ http://gembundler.com/ I used rvm almost from its inception but have recently changed to rbenv as this has a much smaller footprint on the user's environment. But both are excellent products. If you are installing RoR for a production environment then you will almost certainly need to consider using Passenger (mod-rails) as well. https://www.phusionpassenger.com/ HTH. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

The next release of ruby? from RH? will be the 1.93 or > some such, and include all the stuff in the enterprise version. RNENV and RVM are Ruby language installers that create a custom programming environment by user. REE is simply a modified Ruby VM based on 1.8.7 which was produced by the same people who provide the Passenger gem. Support of REE is / will be discontinued as MRI (Matz Ruby Interpreter) version 1.9.3 addresses most of the issues with v 1.8 that REE attempted to correct. > Development tools on a production box are a very, VERY bad idea.

There are no local users other than administrators and application pseudo-users so the presence or absence of development tools is mostly moot. Anyone who penetrates a sealed server already knows enough that the absence of development tools is a negligible inconvenience. On the other hand, many RubyGems must be custom built on their target hosts. This is particularly true for DB adapters. To keep these gems up-to-date requires build tools. I suppose that I could direct that all build tools be removed after a gem update and reinstalled as required but the illusionary security benefit is simply not worth the very real labour cost. > > I've also seen an article or two about ruby not scaling up well. > From my experience here, the apps seem to be *very* fragile, and First, there are a lot of fragile COBOL applications that have been running in large corporations for decades. I know, I worked on some of them. On one system, run by a now defunct telecommunications giant, the corporate accounting staff had to calculate foreign currency adjustments off line and explicitly ADD the resulting figures to the production cost system as component items. This was necessary because the existing system did not handle foreign currencies and NO ONE was going to take the responsibility for breaking the entire cost accounting application just to add that feature. Just consider how fragile that is. The reason that there are a lot of fragile Ruby (and a plethora of any other languages that you care to name) Apps is mostly due to the sudden popularity of the language generated by the creation of a 'cool' new framework (in this case Ruby on Rails). The result is attraction of swarms of people from other languages who throw up (in both senses of the term) hastily built, generally untested, toy applications that simply are not designed to handle growth; or simply not designed at all. That is likely the case with most of these supposed 'fragile' apps. Apps which no-one seems able to name however. If one comes to Ruby from Python or PHP or MVB or dot.net or Java or C++ or C and just starts coding then one likely will end up with a Python, PHP, VB, dot.net, Java, C++ or C application. It will be written in Ruby but it will not be a Ruby app. The problem is succinctly put by the observation that one can write Fortran in any language. Of course, if you come from Smalltalk, then the case is somewhat altered. But, I digress. > it reminds me of python 10-12 years ago, where updating it one or > two subreleases broke everything that had been working, including > system tools.

selinux policy and httpd
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

I upgraded a development server last week, and it started spewing selinux errors to the log. I googled. What finally *seems* to have stopped it was a) setsebool -P httpd_setrlimit 1 b) yum downgrade selinux-policy\* This is on a 6.3 box. Has anyone else seen this behaviour? mark

HP Data protector problem on Centos 6.3
by Todor Petkov 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

Hello, has anyone tried out HP Data Protector 7.0 on Centos 6.3? I have problems with uiproxyd, similar to http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Data-Protector-Support-and-News/DP-7-and-RedHa… It fails to start, and provides no usable information, neither with debug or strace. Thanks in advance,

System->Administation->Network
by Steve Campbell 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

I found quite a bit on google about the problem that "Network" does not show up under the System->Administration menu any more. All the solutions seem to indicate that I just need to install system-config-network-tui, but that doesn't change anything. I've turn off Network Manager before trying to do any of this because I want to configure my network offline. A little push in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks steve campbell

"upstream" Storage Server fully OSS?
by Ted Miller 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

Is the "upstream" Storage Server fully open source, or are parts of it closed source? Are the RPMs to build one already in the Centos repo? If not, are there any plans to offer them? I am looking for something free to use in Haiti, that will offer redundant file storage and automatic failover to a second set of hardware in case of a failure of the primary hardware. If RHSS is not available or suitable, other suggestions welcome. I need a file system/server with: * primary function is serving MP3 files for playback in a radio station environment in Haiti * if the system goes down all your clients (listeners) know it * they know it NOW * they know how long it takes to get it back up * High Availability as the primary concern * ability to administrate via web interface or similar by non-Linux-savvy IT staff. * ability to grow file system from 2-3TB to 20-50TB by simply adding disks and/or adding 'bricks' * clients will all be Windows computers, so files accessible by CIFS * critical application is read-only * prefer a system that would continue serving files even if the network goes down (but have not found such a system yet for Windows clients). This would require something like Ceph with a full (non-server) windows client, so the local node would continue to function until the network came back up. * throughput is not a large issue Ted Miller Elkhart, IN

How can I prevent apache from mounting all home directories?
by Alfred von Campe 20 Nov '12

20 Nov '12

We use automounted user home directories on our CentOS 6.3 desktops, and on the desktops on which we start apache, I have noticed that all 900+ home directories listed in NIS get (and stay!) mounted. If I don't start apache, this doesn't happen. We don't need access to home directories from apache, so I would like to prevent apache from mounting these home directories, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it. We use the stock httpd.conf file, and I commented out the "LoadModule userdir_module" line to no avail. Any other suggestions? Alfred

SAMBA and Active Directory Intergration Problem
by Bonnie B Mtengwa 20 Nov '12

20 Nov '12

I have a CentOS6.3 SAMBA file server. All the users are on a Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Domain Controller and authentication is done using Winbind integration on SAMBA . Everything works well except that if someone logs on to the Samba Server, they see all the shared folders there and also a folder with their own name %USER%. This Folder is not accessible, one cannot enter into this folder, I have noticed that it's not being automatically created in the home folder : i.e /home/%USER%/ is not there. My smb.conf is as follows workgroup = Domain0 security = ads realm = Domain.com encrypt passwords = yes preferred master = no template shell = /bin/bash template homedir = /home/%D/%U winbind separator = $ ; template primary group = "Domain Users" winbind uid = 600-20000 winbind gid = 600-20000 winbind use default domain = yes winbind nested groups = yes winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes enhanced browsing = yes winbind offline logon = false password server = dc.domain.com [homes] create mask = 0775 directory mask = 0775 browseable = no comment = Home Directories valid users = %U writable = yes anyone who can help me on this?

From Fedora (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Staying_close_to_upstream_projects) In general, when Centos folks refer to upstream in general terms, they are talking about RedHat. It often seems to be used in order to avoid too much use of the Trademarked name that makes Centos possible. If someone is talking about a specific program (say apache or MySQL) and they refer to upstream, they are probably referring to the developers of that specific program. Ted Miller P.S.

Yum update without internet connection
by Steve Campbell 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

I usually use a "Desktop" option when installing a new machine. This gives me all I need for an X session and then I add other packages or grouplists on an as-needed basis. I'm putting together a couple of machines that will not have network connectivity until all packages are installed. Is there a way to run yum to install packages/groups from the installation disk instead of from one of the normal yum repositories? If so, is there a ever a problem with packages on the second disk of the 2 disk installation DVDs? Thanks, steve campbell

One screen disabled on login with NVIDIA TwinView
by Toralf Lund 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

Hi Is anyone here using NVIDIA display drivers and a TwinView configuration on their systems? I've got a bit of an issue with such a setup, which started occurring after a recent driver update: I have a laptop that's normally connected to an external monitor (a Samsung SyncMaster), where this monitor and the built-in display on the laptop are set up with a TwinView configuration. The external monitor is set to be the primary display via NVIDIA X Server Settings. Now, when X11 starts, both monitors seem to be enabled, based on the fact that the NVIDIA logo is displayed across both screens. The login screen then appears on the external monitor, just as I expect when it's set to primary display. But, when I actually log in, the display goes black, and the NVIDIA X Server Settings (which I open on the laptop display) report the following config: Selection: Samsung SyncMaster (DFP-1) Configuration: TwinView Resolution: Off I can easily re-enable the monitor by changing resolution to Auto or one of the listed dimensions, but having to do this every time I log in is a bit annoying. Does anyone else see this? Do you know if there is a way around it? This is on CentOS 5.8. Driver version is currently 304.60 - but I've also updated it a couple of times after this problem started occurring.

Extend schema on CentOS directory server
by Chris Taylor 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

Currently I am running freeradius with an openldap backend, I am looking to move to the CentOS directory server. The problem I am running into is that none of the RADIUS attributes I require are in the schema. My question is how do I update the schema with the needed freeradius attributes? is it as easy as taking the openldap.schema file that freeradius provides and renaming it to something like 99radius.ldif putting it in the /etc/dirsrv/"servername"/schema/ dir and restarting the service? Sorry if this question has been asked before I have been trolling the internet and haven't found a concrete answer. Thanks, Chris

Postfix dont work
by Andrei Rolando León Salas 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

Hi, i send a email to my server but i get Technical details of permanent failure: Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 554 554 5.7.1 <postmaster(a)mercadeoeficaz-cr.com>: Relay access denied (state 13). So i google and i see this If your having the issue where you send a email to a email account on your Ispconfig server and you receive a message like this: Relay Access Denied State 14 You will need to double check your postfix config. Run this command below to fix two entries in your postfix install. postconf -e 'virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtusertable' postconf -e 'mydestination = /etc/postfix/local-host-names' After that restart postfix. service postfix restart And you should no longer receive that message. I do it, but now i dont get any message when i sending from gmail to my server(something good) but i cant see the email in my server and cannot send. And as i dont get any error i cant google for a solution, when i send just get in waiting for mercadeoeficaz-cr.com. this is main.cf https://dl.dropbox.com/u/11417336/main.cf.txt and this is master.cf https://dl.dropbox.com/u/11417336/master.cf.txt

During booting of Centos6 I see an error message that goes something like: Starting mcelog daemon [FAILED] AMD Processor family 15: Please load edac_mce_amd module.

I don't have a RedHat account, so don't know if they have a real solution. I know that mce has to do with logging certain microprocessor errors. 1. How important is this 2. Is there anything I should do, except wait for a bug fix sometime? Ted Miller Elkhart, IN

mdX and mismatch_cnt when building an array
by Steve Thompson 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

CentOS 6.3, x86_64. I have noticed when building a new software RAID-6 array on CentOS 6.3 that the mismatch_cnt grows monotonically while the array is building: # cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] md11 : active raid6 sdg[5] sdf[4] sde[3] sdd[2] sdc[1] sdb[0] 3904890880 blocks super 1.2 level 6, 512k chunk, algorithm 2 [6/6] [UUUUUU] [==================>..] resync = 90.2% (880765600/976222720) finish=44.6min speed=35653K/sec # cat /sys/block/md11/md/mismatch_cnt 1439285488 The mismatch count grows until the assembly is complete, and then remains at its highest value. A subsequent check resets it to zero (immediately) and everything is fine thereafter. The device is not in use by any other system component. I have reproduced this on several different systems; it always happens with CentOS 6.3 and never with CentOS 5.x and earlier (in 5.x, mismatch_cnt always stays at zero while assembling). I am using whole drives in this example, but it's the same if I use partitions instead. The count, size and type of drives appears to have no bearing. Perhaps just a curiosity, but I'm curious as to why it does this. Steve

Problem installing 6.3 on HP8540w laptop
by david 15 Nov '12

15 Nov '12

Folks Just for laughs, I tried installing Centos 6.3 on the laptop HP 8540w. Windows 7 installed earlier, but I had to import a driver for the Ethernet controller since it was not supported on the distribution DVD of Windows7. The Centos installation I chose was the "NetInstall". The installation process identified eth0, I selected IPV4 DHCP, disabled IPV6, and successfully completed the install of "desktop" using the wired connection through my home network. The wireless was turned off. The ethernet controller shows up in Windows with the name "Intel 8255LM". When the reboot occurred after installation, the Ethernet did not work. The "ifconfig eth0" command showed no IP address. Where do I go from here? Thanks David

I then added to the file /etc/sysctl.conf the line: net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 and rebooted. Still no IP address, and when I issued "service network restart" I get: failed: no link present. Check cable? HOWEVER, pulling the ethernet cable and re-inserting it, then issuing "service network restart" got a valid address. After a reboot, again it didn't work. However, after waiting a while, I tried "network start", got some messages about a file existing, and got an IP address. This seems strange. But, the computer is now up and accessing the internet for YUM updates. David

Install error - disc 2
by Burt Hailey 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

I am doing a fresh install of 6.3 from DVDs that I created on a Windows laptop. I used ImgBurn to create them. When I started the install I selected "test" and both discs passed. The install requested disc 2 and after putting it in I get the message "That's not the correct CentOS disc". I tried creating another disc but still get the same message. The installation status bar shows that 1554 of 1555 packages have completed and that the omping package is installing. Curiously, when I look at disc 2 I don't see that package. Does anyone have any ideas about what might be going on here? Thanks, Burt

Multiple incremental DVD backup program?
by Keith Roberts 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

I'm running C5.8 and want to backup a directory that is 6GB in size. Is there any Linux program for Centos to make this backup over 2 x 4.4GB DVD+R disks please? Something with a GUI like K3b would do nicely.

gtkpod
by Bob Hepple 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

High and low searching (google, most of the repos in http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories) availed nothing - has anyone found a repo for gtkpod on centos-6? I seem to recall having to use fedora packages at some time in the past. Bit loath to do that again or compile from source. Thanks Bob

LibreCAD FOSS
by Mark LaPierre 11 Nov '12

11 Nov '12

Hey Y,all I seem to remember someone on this list looking for CAD software. I thought I should send this along just in case I'm right and someone remembers who it was that was looking. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Please add libreCAD to the Fedora repositories. Date: Tue, 06 Nov 2012 21:25:03 -0700 From: Steve <linuxguy123(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: Community support for Fedora users <users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> To: users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org I request that libreCAD be added to the Fedora repositories. http://librecad.org/cms/home.html libreCAD is the take over of what used to be QCAD. QCAD has been forked into a closed source application and work on the open source application appears to have ceased. -- _ °v° /(_)\ ^ ^ Mark LaPierre Registerd Linux user No #267004 https://linuxcounter.net/ ****

Memcached - replication?
by Rafał Radecki 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hi all. I am thinking about installing memcached with replication, I've found http://sourceforge.net/projects/repcached/files/repcached/2.2.1-1.2.8/ but it is for 1.2.8, and for Centos 6.3 memcached is in version 1.4.4. I do not want to use client side "replication" (writing to two memcached nodes at the same time) and haven't found other solution. Are there any good, protocol compatible solutions? What do you think about couchbase? Best regards, Rafal.

My system is 5.6, with upgrades. I installed Java 6 from the Centos repository. It doesn't seem to have Java 7. I need the development package. How can I install Java 7 development safely? I imagine I will first have to uninstall Java 6. Thanks, John -- John J.

And then, with a little googling, saw someone else's reaction as the same as mine: apccontrol has a *lot* of options. Does this mean that I need to write a script names poweroff so that it doesn't shut down, *and* have symlinks to that from loadlimit, runlimit, doreboot, onbattery, failing, and timeout?

Monitoring bandwidth, latency, packet drop.
by Rafał Radecki 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hi all. I am currently thinking about monitoring a network link (bandwidth, latency, packet drop). I have a centos server which is connected to providers network through a switch. How to test the link? Should I: - use ICMP to ping gateway and collect staistics of time/packet loss/etc. - use software like here: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-windows-monitor-outgoing-bandwidth-… (client/server) ? Is there an option to monitor bandwidth, latency, packet drop without installing additional software on gateway or external host? Best regards, Rafał.

disk device lvm iscsi questions ....
by Götz Reinicke - IT Koordinator 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hi, I have an iscsistorage which I attached to a new centos 6.3 server. I added logic volumes as usual, the block devices (sdb & sdc) showed up in dmesg; I can mount and access the stored files. Now we did an firmware software update to that storage (while unmounted/detached from the fileserver) and after reboot of the storage and reatache the iscsi nodes I do get new devices. (sdd & sde) The last time I remember a simple vgchange -ay changed all neede settings so that I can mount and use the volumes as expected. But this time I do get an IO error like /dev/sun7110to_dali_LUN_3/lvol0: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 1610608476160: Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler but also: 1 logical volume(s) in volume group "sun7110to_dali_LUN_3" now active What might be messed up? What can I try do get the storage/filesystems back online? Thanks for any sugesstion and regards . Götz -- Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator - Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg GmbH

Fwd: Different behavior of net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range between RHEL-5 and RHEL-6
by Santi Saez 08 Nov '12

08 Nov '12

Forwarding just in case anyone is familiar with this on CentOS, thanks! -- Hello, Just found that net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range has different behavior between RHEL releases: until v6 although you have multiple source IPs you can only use a fixed number of local ports, seems that "ip_local_port_range" is a global configuration or limitation. On RHEL-6 kernel (testing with 2.6.32-279) you can bind() to N local ports per source IP, it's a per-IP limit: total ports = ip_local_port_range x source IP. The problem is that on RHEL-5 and 4 you can only make ip_local_port_range outgoing connections and you can't use different source IPs trick to increase this limitation. I have been testing and vanilla 2.6.32 kernel and other Linux distributions like Debian doesn't support this. What has been changed/patched on RHEL-6 to allow this? Santi Saez

kvm to virtualbox
by Jerry Geis 08 Nov '12

I have a KVM (qemu-img raw) that I have attempted to convert to VirtualBox. I did the convertfromraw to convert to vdi. I was hoping it would be that simple but, no. When I try to boot the image, it does not boot. Is there something "extra" I need to do - or something different? Thanks, Jerry

Re: [CentOS] Virtualization Options!
by Antonio da Silva Martins Junior 08 Nov '12

08 Nov '12

Hi folks, Thanks for your advices, I'll take a look on all and post what I conclude on it. Maybe I'm not clear enought, I already had CentOS5.8 Xen on my Hosts, but I'm finding a solution more "enterprise". The HA/Load Balance solution we had are self made, it is much time consuming for our needs. We are searching for something more easy (or self) administering software. This is why we take a look on VMware, Citrix, etc... We'll take a look on OpenStack, RHEV/RHEM, maybe Oracle VM...

I looked at the capacitors, they seem good, nothing bursted or corroded. I'm inclined to say it's purely a C6 problem, as I said the behaviour is since I installed C6 on it.

Hi, am using latest C6 on a Dell GX270 with latest Bios. It fails to power down but restarts when running $ sudo poweroff I tried some google hints for kernel boot option: acpi=force no help, looks like acpi is working anyway when looking in dmesg acpi=off makes e1000 nic fail to initialize Any suggestions?

Here's another one: there's an option in the BIOS of some servers for "return to previous state" on loss of power. If that's there, you might try it the other way. I don't suppose the system's still under warranty.... mark

LVM question during an upgrade
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

Well, I'm upgrading a server from 5.8 to 6.3. Problem: someone built the system with LVM. I see some few differences between /etc/lvm/lvm.conf and the one from 6.3, and I'm trying to figure out what I can leave alone, and what I need to set to that from the old version. For example, the old one has preferred_names = [], and the new has a list. Anyone have thoughts about whether I can just copy over the old? I do know there are some new parameters (thin_*): do I need to add them? mark

Install CentOS 6.3 to partitionable mdadm array
by Hal Martin 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

Hello all, I'm trying to install CentOS 6.3 to an mdadm partitionable array and not having any luck. The installer only allows me to create one file system per md device, or specify the md device as a LVM physical volume. I don't want to do either, I want to create one md device and create multiple partitions on top of the md device. I thought that perhaps the installer was preventing me from doing this because it wasn't possible to boot off a partitionable mdadm array, but through googling I don't believe this is the case. (See links at the bottom of this email) I've tried the graphical installer and the text-mode installer, and neither gives me the ability to install to a partitionable mdadm array. Even more annoying is that if I manually create such an array, partition it and create file systems, the installer will stop the array when starting the partitioning utility, preventing me from installing to the partitions I created. Is there an advanced mode in the installer that I can force it to install to a partitionable md device, or is that not an option? I'd like to avoid having multiple md devices on the same physical drives, and unfortunately the application I'm installing doesn't place nicely with LVM. Thanks, Hal http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/md.txt http://www.miquels.cistron.nl/raid/ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=447818

apcupsd
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

Anyone else around using apcupsd? I seem to be seeing a problem, and I'd like someone to check me on it: I edit /etc/apcupsd/apccontrol to replace the value of SHUTDOWN from /sbin/shutdown to /bin/false (we don't want 3 or 6 servers shutting down over a 2 second or so blip, which it really wants to do). What's happened is that a machine shut down the other day, and looking at it, I found that the config file was set to the original code... and I *KNOW*, for a fact, that I went through every single server that's attached to a UPS many months ago, after something important shut down, and fixed all of them. So, it looks like an upgrade undid my change, rather than creating apccontrol.rpmnew. Has anyone seen this behavior? mark

The aim of the exercise is to get more people looking at the tests we already have, running them on their infrastructure and ultimately joining the effort as contributors. You will need a machine instance ( either physical machine, or a VPS or a Cloud Instance or a VM on your machine ); need a VM image ? you can download one from here as prep : http://dev.centos.org/centos/test-images/ - being able to connect to the internet from that machine instance is essential, and as there are quite a few packages installed / uninstalled / cleaned out - a local CentOS mirror would be handy if you are on a slow link to the internet. The tests are mostly written in bash, but you can use any language you like - just grab yourself a gitorious.org account in advance. Knowledge of git helps, but isn't necessary. The test day will run from 05:00 UTC till 23:00 UTC, and there will be a couple of the CentOS QA guys and people who have contributed to the tests already, to help you get started and join the effort. We will have brief, clear instructions on : - Getting a copy of the most current tests - Set them up on your machine instance - Run the tests - Feedback results and recommendations - Templates to write new tests with - Submission process to contribute new tests - Instructions on howto run the tests regularly in the future The Test Day landing page is being setup here : http://wiki.centos.org/QaWiki/TestDay and will be ready by Wednesday Nov 7th, 2012. These tests are important : we run then every time there is a new iso, new image, new updates etc ready to be released by the project. Getting good and widespread coverage of these tests means that we all end up getting more trustworthy updates.

As far as the cluster is concerned, it is HA. The cluster does not understand the concept of unimportant things; It treats everything as critical. If you need CLVM (or anything else related to the cluster), then either make the VMs HA resources or move them off. Until you use real fencing, you will have problems. That said, some won't appear until it's too late if you try to avoid this. In short; use real fencing, period. Nothing else is supported or safe. >>> 4. OK, now reboot the "failed" node.

As I understand it, Cisco periodically purges multicast groups, forcing machine to resubscribe, as a way to clean out disused groups. This breaks the cluster comms. This is just one example of what might be happening. The take-away is that latency must remain below 2ms and multicast messages must never be interrupted. Your network people should be able to interpret that further. > Do I need to do something else within the switch or cluster configs to > aid MC? All the nodes are using the default MC address/port. Set a static multicast group, for one. > STP is currently enabled (set to pvst). This can cause problems. When STP tries to find loops, it can block a port or ports. This can break the cluster as well. Disable switch-wide STP and only enable it on outword-facing ports (if any at all). >>> 3.

The people > using those VMs wouldn't be very happy with me.... :) No, it makes sense whenever a node loses connection. The goal of fencing is to ensure that two nodes don't try to both provide HA services. If they can't talk to each other, then the *only* way to ensure that a node is the only one providing services is to fence the lost node. It does not matter at all that the rest of the machine is otherwise healthy. > (I've done AIX and HP HA clusters before, so I understand the need/purpose > for fencing failed nodes. In this case, I have real users using the VMs > on the nodes-- the only thing that appears to fail is aisexec's communication.) Then put your VMs under HA control. If the host node is lost, it will restart on a healthy node. It's the *only* safe option. -- Digimer Papers and Projects: https://alteeve.ca/w/ What if the cure for cancer is trapped in the mind of a person without access to education?

bind vs nfs
by Leon Fauster 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Hi all, i have the situation where i need to have a nfs share on different locations on the client filesystem e. g. /vhost/one/htdocs/media /vhost/two/htdocs/media /vhost/.../htdocs/media is there some "performance" differences between mounting "media" every time via nfs or mount "media" only once via nfs and then remount "media" every time i need via "bind" locally? Just thinking/planing this right now. -- LF

SSHMenu (Gnome Applet) for CentOS 6
by Nikolaos Milas 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Hello, I know that there exists a package for Gnome SSHMenuApplet for CentOS 5 (e.g. see http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/epel/testing/5/ppc/gnome-applet-sshmenu-3.15-5…) The package sshmenu (which I found here: http://dl.marmotte.net/rpms/redhat/el6/x86_64/sshmenu-3.18-7.el6/sshmenu-3.…) states: ======================================== Summary : Application to organize SSH connection information in a menu URL : http://sshmenu.sourceforge.net/ License : BSD Description : SSHMenu is a small program (which is to be used outside of GNOME) that : keeps all your regular SSH connections within a single menu. If you wish to : have the full GNOME applet version of the menu, install gnome-applet-sshmenu. ======================================== However, I can't find a gnome-applet-sshmenu RPM package for el6. So, does anyone knowof a gnome-applet-sshmenu RPM package for el6 (or can anyone provide one)? It should include SSHMenu v3.18. There is a package for FC15: ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/linux/releases/15/Everything/x86_64/os/P…, but Idon't know if it can/should be used in CentOS 6. Notes: sshmenu (v3.15) exists in EPEL for CentOS 5, but gnome-applet-sshmenu does not. Both (v3.15) exist in Extras repo. Neither exists in EPEL for Centos 6. Please advise. Thanks, Nick

Hi, In our company we have a DL380 ( 16gb ram) server with Windows server 2003 x86, this run only tomcat 6. We have 2 options: a) upgrade to windows 2008 x64 and b) migrate to Linux ( I mean centos 6 x64). I want to make some benchmarks. Please help me to compare a and b. How I can make this benchmark? -- Best Regards, Ashkan R

NoMachine Player on Mac OSX 10.7 and strange characters
by James B. Byrne 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

I have a FreeNX server running on a development CentOS-6.3 kvm guest and I have the NoMachine player for OSX installed on my MacBook pro. I can connect to my desktop without problem. However, when I run a terminal session on the remote desktop when I type / I get é displayed and I cannot enter directory paths in consequence. I recall having a similar problem with the VNC remote console in virt-manager and that was caused by virt-manager leaving out the keyboard specification from the graphics entry in /etc/libvirt/qemu/config.xml. However, I cannot discover if a similar configuration setting exists for NoMachine. Does anyone else here use NoMachine player from a Mac and if so have you encountered and solved this problem? If you have then I would appreciate being told how to fix this. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

Problem with CLVM (really openais)
by Cris Rhea 04 Nov '12

04 Nov '12

I'm desparately looking for more ideas on how to debug what's going on with our CLVM cluster. Background: 4 node "cluster"-- machines are Dell blades with Dell M6220/M6348 switches. Sole purpose of Cluster Suite tools is to use CLVM against an iSCSI storage array. Machines are running CentOS 5.8 with the Xen kernels. These blades host various VMs for a project. The iSCSI back-end storage hosts the disk images for the VMs. The blades themselves run from local disk. Each blade has 3 active networks: -- Front-end, public net. -- Back-end net (backups, Database connections to external servers, cluster communication) -- iSCSI net Front and Back nets are on Xen Bridges and available/used by the VMs. iSCSI net only used by Dom0/blades. Originally got CLVM working by installing Luci/Ricci. Cluster config is dead-simple: <?xml version="1.0"?> <cluster alias="Alliance Blades" config_version="6" name="Alliance Blades"> <fence_daemon clean_start="0" post_fail_delay="0" post_join_delay="3"/> <clusternodes> <clusternode name="calgb-blade1-mn.mayo.edu" nodeid="1" votes="1"> <fence/> </clusternode> <clusternode name="calgb-blade2-mn.mayo.edu" nodeid="3" votes="1"> <fence/> </clusternode> <clusternode name="calgb-blade3-mn.mayo.edu" nodeid="4" votes="1"> <fence/> </clusternode> <clusternode name="calgb-blade4-mn.mayo.edu" nodeid="2" votes="1"> <fence/> </clusternode> </clusternodes> <cman/> <fencedevices/> <rm> <failoverdomains/> <resources/> </rm> </cluster> All the basics are covered... LVM locking set to "Cluster", etc. This all worked fine for a period (pre 5.8)... at some point, an update took a step backwards. I can bring up the entire cluster and it will work for about 10 minutes. During that time, I'll get the following on several of the nodes: Nov 3 17:28:18 calgb-blade2 openais[7154]: [TOTEM] Retransmit List: fe Nov 3 17:28:49 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 105 times Nov 3 17:29:50 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:30:51 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:31:52 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:32:53 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:33:54 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:34:55 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:35:56 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:36:36 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 105 times Nov 3 17:36:36 calgb-blade2 openais[7154]: [TOTEM] Retransmit List: fe ff Nov 3 17:37:07 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 104 times Nov 3 17:38:08 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:39:09 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:40:10 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:41:11 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:42:12 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:43:13 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:44:14 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 154 times Nov 3 17:44:24 calgb-blade2 last message repeated 26 times Around the 10 minute mark, one of the nodes (it is not always the same node) will do: Nov 3 17:44:24 calgb-blade1 openais[7179]: [TOTEM] FAILED TO RECEIVE Nov 3 17:44:24 calgb-blade1 openais[7179]: [TOTEM] entering GATHER state from 6.

Nov 3 17:44:34 calgb-blade1 openais[7179]: [TOTEM] entering OPERATIONAL state. ... When this happens, the node that lost connections kills CMAN. The other 3 nodes get into this state: [root@calgb-blade2 ~]# group_tool type level name id state fence 0 default 00010001 FAIL_START_WAIT [1 2 3] dlm 1 clvmd 00010003 FAIL_ALL_STOPPED [1 2 3 4] dlm 1 rgmanager 00020003 FAIL_ALL_STOPPED [1 2 3 4] One of the nodes will be barking about trying to fence the "failed" node (expected, as I don't have real fencing). Nothing (physically) has actually failed. All 4 blades are running their VMs and accessing the shared back-end storage. No network burps, etc. CLVM is unusable and any LVM commands hang. Here's where it gets really strange..... 1. Go to the blade that has "failed" and shut down all the VMs (just to be safe-- they are all running fine). 2. Go to the node that tried to fence the failed node and run: fence_ack_manual -e -n <failed node> 3. The 3 "surviving" nodes are instantly fine. group_tool reports "none" for state and all CLVM commands work properly. 4. OK, now reboot the "failed" node. It reboots and rejoins the cluster. CLVM commands work, but are slow. Lots of these errors: openais[7154]: [TOTEM] Retransmit List: fe ff 5. This goes on for about 10 minutes and the whole cycle repeats (one of the other nodes will "fail"...) What I've tried: 1. Switches have IGMP snooping disabled. This is a simple config, so no switch-to-switch multicast is needed (all cluster/multicast traffic stays on the blade enclosure switch). I've had the cluster messages use the front-end net and the back-end net (different switch model)-- no change in behavior. 2. Running the latest RH patched openais from their Beta channel: openais-0.80.6-37.el5 (yes, I actually have RH licenses, just prefer CentOS for various reasons). 3. Tested multicast by enabling multicast/ICMP and running multicast pings. Ran with no data loss for > 10 minutes. (IBM Tech web site article-- where the end of the article say it's almost always a network problem.) 4. Tried various configuration changes such as defining two rings. No change (or got worse- the dual ring config triggers a kernel bug). I've read about every article I can find... they usually fall into two camps: 1. Multiple years old, so no idea if it's accurate with today's versions of the software. 2. People trying to do 2-node clusters and wondering why they lose quorum. My feeling is that this is an openais issue-- the ring gets out of sync and can't fix itself. This system needs to go "production" in a matter of weeks, so I'm not sure I want to dive into doing some sort of custom compiled CLVM/Corosync/Pacemaker config. Since this software has been around for years, I believe it's something simple I'm just missing. Thanks for any help/ideas... --- Cris -- Cristopher J.

advice on storage for media storage/streaming server
by Phil Savoie 04 Nov '12

04 Nov '12

Hello, I would like to use centos 6.3 to build a media server with 7 2TB drives and would like suggestions on the storage aspect. This is going to run mediaplex and function only as a media storage/streaming server. 1. If I didn't care about redundancy, would ext4 handle the size of a raid 0? 2. If I did go with the redundancy, what raid level should I use? 3. Should I use LVM? Why? Thank you in advance for your thoughts on this. Phil

Desktop Switcher
by Mark LaPierre 04 Nov '12

04 Nov '12

Hey Y'all, Does CentOS have a desk top switcher similar to what you find on Fedora? A friend of mine want's to be able to switch between desktops. I've only got Gnome installed on my machine so I don't switch. A search of Google turns up reference to CentOS 4 for desktop switcher but I don't see anything for CentOS 6.3.

CentOS and ActiveX
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 01 Nov '12

01 Nov '12

Only vaguely on topic, here: does anyone know how, in Firefox on CentOS (6.3), or if it's possible, to see and use ActiveX controls on a website? The calendar here at work has ActiveX controls, apparently, and I can't even see them, much less use them. mark "my manager doesn't want reminders...."

I'll take a look on this... I'm thinking a "cloud" will be a bit overkilling for our applications :D We had only a dozen hosts with aprox. 100 VMs (linux, windows) on it. But, today, almos everything is a "cloud" :D I already read the manuals of Eucaliptus and OpenStack, will take a look on OpenNebula, too... I'm thinking that we will have a "cloud" when we can use VDI to virtualize our desktop labs :D For now we are searching a way to automatize the management of our VMs, but without all of the lights, rings, and bells most of the cloud softwares had :D Our installation is prety simple: all hosts share some LUNs from the Storage (via iSCSI). We had cLVM on it. The VMs had their own LVM partition. And we had a couple o C and bash programs that do the magic. But, to deploy a new VM is almos the same as deploy a physical host. No snaphsot (cLVM didn't had it working), and no clone (it almost kills the SAN net). This is why we are searching for something else! VMware and Citrix made some demonstrations for our boss, but both needs MS-AD. Then we are searching for other options :D We already had talks with RH, thanks Jim Wildman, and well we aren't in a touristic area either :D Well... we are still searching :D Thanks, Antonio. -- +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Antonio S.

network and stability issues
by Karanbir Singh 01 Nov '12

01 Nov '12

hi Guys, Over the last 24 hours we have had a series of stability issues. First, the DC our mail/lists machine is hosted in had power issues ( Internap LGA9, NY, USA ); then we had a h/w failure and needed a chassis swap ( thanks to the guys in the DC who executed this within minutes ); and we have since again had network issues - although power to the DC and the server seems stable now. Over the next 24 hours, lets just try and be a bit patient and work with this. We have good backups so if things dont stabalise in the next 24 hrs we will failover. The primary reason we have not done this as yet ( failover ), is down to the fact that its taken a long time, in years, for us to build a reputation with large hosting facilities and email providers and are on many whitelists. Moving the host over makes it hard for us to get that sort of level of trust again really quickly. Longer term, we should perhaps spread the load through multiple machines and then ensure we have good relationships out of all these machines exit IP's with the various vendors and service providers. There are backup MX's in place, so if there are issues with the primary machine, we will have mail's go into holding queues and we should not lose anything inbound. -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh ICQ: 2522219 | Yahoo IM: z00dax | Gtalk: z00dax GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Virtualization Options!
by Antonio da Silva Martins Junior 01 Nov '12

01 Nov '12

Hi, I'm searching for "virtualization options". I already take a look on VMware, but it needs too much MS software to work for my needs. Citrix needs less, but the key validation is still MS-AD. Now I'm taking a look at RHEV... and run into Oracle VM! Somebody had already take a look at Oracle VM? We need in primary a solid VM solution for an "enterprise cloud" running on top of some old and new Dell servers in conjunction with an EMC Cx4-120 storage. We had plans to provide "desktop virtualization" in the future, most to labs class, and maybe adminstrative tasks. But it isn't necessary now. Anybody had some other options to tell?

Centos 6.2 x64 after GRUB menu, black screen with blinking cursor
by David McGiven 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Dear CentOS users, I installed CentOS 6.2 x64 in a Sun Fire X4450 machine, it has 4 disks and I configured them to be a single volume (no RAID). The installer sees the volume perfectly, its 570Gb. I created two ext3 partitions, /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2. In the logs I see they are formated correctly. All the files are installed. Then when I reboot, I get to the GRUB menu. Choose the first and only option, and immediately after that I only see a black screen with blinking cursor on top left. I've tried recreating the grub manually with : find /boot/grub/stage1 (reported it on hd0,0) root (hd0,0) setup (hd0) quit Then I try to boot and I get the same blinking cursor. I tried another approach with no luck either : replacing root=LABEL=UUID for root=/dev/sda1 just to see if this could help ... but I have the same problem. I don't really now what's going on. Is there anyway to put grub into verbose mode so I can see what exactly it is doing or looking for ? Thanks in advance. Regards.

Issue installing Centos server on Vmware Fusion/Server
by Madhurranjan Mohaan 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hi All, I've had issues over the last few days trying to create a Centos server image . I've tried with Vmware fusion and Vmware server and it skips directly to the default desktop install and doesn't give me the option to run the linux server. I am not sure if you've seen this earlier. I've tried with Centos 5.8 and 6.0 but the installer seems to work in that manner . Thoughts around how to fix this ? Thanks Mamu

Gnome Screensaver - not functioning as advertised
by Rob Kampen 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hi List, Currently running a couple of CentOS 6.3 workstations / laptops with gnome as the default window manager. Since the original 6.1 install the behaviour of the screensaver has changed. I use the cosmos theme and have this activate after five minutes of idle. Initially, when the five minutes were up, the screen would start to dim and if one moved the mouse or hit a key on the keyboard it would drop out of screensave and return to full bright screen. With one of the updates since then, the behaviour has changed - now once the 5 minutes are up - one has to wait until the gradual dimming of the screen is complete (a couple of seconds) and only then move the mouse or hit a key to show the password dialog - enter password and then get a working screen - all quite time consuming. So I thought, remove the "Lock screen when screensaver is active" - I have unchecked this option, logged in and out, and it just ignores it and insists on a password - always. I guess there is some option buried deep within the gnome system panel that needs some attention - any ideas? My preference is to have it back to the original behaviour, once the screen begins to fade, a mouse movement or key click prevents the screensaver from gaining complete control and needing the password entry dialog etc. all my precious seconds being wasted - especially as I have a 5 minute idle setting. Suggestions welcome TIA Rob

Network issue - Windows works but CentOS does not
by xrx 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

I am having an extremely strange issue with a BL460c1 (G1) blade on a c7000 enclosure. I could not for the life of me get the machine to ping the gateway or any other blade on the same enclosure (yes, the subnet mask was correct & quadruple-checked); although pinging to the local IP works. I was almost convinced that it was a network or hardware issue; until I asked someone to try installing Windows on that blade to verify that it was not working as well; however to my surprise it worked fine in Windows after installing the network driver; by just setting the IP address (which was the same IP I was trying to configure CentOS with). The interfaces come up fine (eth0 & eth1); the cards are: 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (rev 12) 07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (rev 12) NetworkManager is disabled. There is no bonding configured. The network firmware is the latest available from the HP website (bootcode 4.4.1, CLP 1.3.6). The network is supposed to be simple; if I do a: ifconfig eth0 172.12.34.112 netmask 255.255.255.0 I am supposed to be able to: ping 172.12.34.1 However, I get: PING 172.12.34.1 (172.12.34.1) 56(84) bytes of data. From 172.12.34.112 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable From 172.12.34.112 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable From 172.12.34.112 icmp_seq=4 Destination Host Unreachable From 172.12.34.112 icmp_seq=5 Destination Host Unreachable I cannot even ping blades in the same enclosure. Yet in windows server 2008 after putting the same IP pinging the same IPs works. I tried: - the disable_msi=1 parameter of the bnx2 driver - a fresh install of CentOS 6.3 - a fresh install of RHEL 6.2 - a live CD of CentOS 5.5 - Clonezilla-ubuntu and systemrescuecd (kernel 3.2) live CDs - CentOS 6.3 with the kernel(-headers,-firmware,-devel) updated to the latest (RPMs were copied with a USB/iLO) - the bnx2 network driver available from the HP website - the bnx2 network driver available from Broadcom Other than a check_ncic warning with the stock 6.3 driver (doesn't appear when trying other drivers); the bnx2 isn't logging anything problematic when I checked with dmesg or /var/log/messages. With tcpdump; strangely, I get random traffic destined to different IPs (probably from the same enclosure), but those IPs do not ping either. However, I got a feeling of deja vu in the midst of all this; as I recall setting up an RHEL machine somewhere else 2-3 years ago; and had the issue of the network working with Windows but not Linux; it turned out that it was because Autonegotiation was disabled with the gigabit network (the few attempts with playing with ethtool did not work); and searching online led me to people saying it ought to be enabled anyway as a standard requires it for gigabit. When the network guys enabled autoneg; it started working in Linux. I am wondering if I'm facing the same issue here, as I see ethtool saying: Advertised auto-negotiation: No Speed: 1000Mb/s I tried doing some ethtool settings (setting autoneg off and forcing 1000, other random options, etc) but it didn't help; but possibly I was trying the wrong things. I am not very familiar with HP blades; but it seems I cannot enable Autoneg for this blade (?); I do not have direct access to the hardware though (everything was done through iLO). Any of you faced issues with a gigabit network with Autoneg disabled? Or any other ideas? This is the only Linux machine in the entire network.
