RAID1 bootloader configuration on CentOS 6.x and 7
by Niki Kovacs 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

Hi, The CentOS wiki sports a page about setting up software RAID1 on CentOS 5.x. There's a section about making both members of the RAID1 bootable by setting up GRUB on both disks. Now I wonder how this should be done on CentOS 6.x and 7. I have two sandbox machines in my office, one running a minimal CentOS 6.6, the other one with a CentOS 7 installation. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I guess the setup on CentOS 6.6 is similar to the one described on the wiki page for CentOS 5.x, something like: grub> device (hd0) /dev/sda grub> device (hd1) /dev/sdb grub> root (hd0,0) grub> setup (hd0) grub> root (hd1,0) grub> setup (hd1) grub> quit Now how would that work with the new GRUB2 under CentOS 7? Or maybe it's already installed on both disks, but how would I know that?

Why is irqbalance not balancing?
by Steve Snyder 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

I am running irqbalance with default configuration on an Atom 330 machine. This CPU has 2 physical cores + 2 SMT (aka Hyperthreading) cores. As shown below the interrupt for the eth0 device is always on CPUs 0 and 1, with CPUs 2 and 3 left idle. But why? Maybe irqbalance prefers physical cores? My understanding, though, is that the even-numbered CPUs are the physical cores, with the odd-numbered one being the SMT cores. If this understanding is correct, it means that irqbalance is toggling between a single physical core and its SMT sibling. Any thoughts on why irqbalance is not using all 4 CPUs to distribute the eth0 interrupts? Thanks. --------------------- # cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3 0: 717 568 0 0 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 0 2 0 0 IO-APIC-edge i8042 8: 26 33 0 0 IO-APIC-edge rtc0 9: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi acpi 12: 1 3 0 0 IO-APIC-edge i8042 17: 11409 11661 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi ahci 18: 264 424 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi snd_hda_intel 20: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi ohci_hcd:usb2 21: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi ohci_hcd:usb3 22: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi ehci_hcd:usb1 24: 686292451 685980205 0 0 PCI-MSI-edge eth0

reboot causes mapping failures after update to Centos 7
by Stephen 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

Hi, I perform the initial update of about 200 packages then when I reboot I get three options instead of two. One is the Core 7 and the other is x86 what do those mean? Also after this the journal returns mapping errors and ext4 errors Best, Steve

Using LVM to implement RAID
by Fred Smith 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

Hi all! I've recently noticed that recent versions of LVM include RAID capabilities, so that one could presumably implement (e.g.) RAID-1 without having to use Linux Software RAID. Given the complexity of LBM, I'm wondering how practical and how safe this is (compared to Linux Software RAID), and also if anyone here knows more about it than I do (which isn't much), and especially if anyone here has actually used it?? I'd appreciate any feedback from y'all! :) Thanks, Fred. -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." ------------------------------ Matthew 7:21 (niv) -----------------------------

Netflix
by Bob Hepple 28 Mar '15

28 Mar '15

Now that netflix is in Australia, I wouldn't mind giving it a burl. It's working fine on my fedora-21 lappy with chrome-40 but not on our centos-6 mythtv setup even with chrome-41. I understand the difference might be the version of NSS - fedora-21 has 3.17 while centos is stuck at 3.16. Other than that, I'm flumoxed. Anyone got netflix running on centos-6? Cheers Bob

Update on CentOS7.1
by Zatorski, Richard 28 Mar '15

28 Mar '15

Several questions about the upcoming release: 1. Will this be happening WW14? If not, is there an ETA? 2. We have our next minor release that’s dependent on CentOS7.1. Are there currently any ISOs available so we can do a risk build? We have an extensive automation farm and doing manual upgrades is not an option. Thanks, (RAZ)

Upgrade centos 6 to 7
by Timothy Murphy 28 Mar '15

28 Mar '15

I read at <http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/CentOSUpgradeTool> "Warning: use of this tool is currently not recommended as several system-critical packages are of a higher version number in CentOS 6.6 than they are in CentOS 7 so those do not get upgraded correctly. This renders yum and several other system tools non-functional." Is that still the position? If so, is it likely to change in the near future? -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

Inheriting Xauthority
by Robert Nichols 27 Mar '15

27 Mar '15

On some of my machines, when I run "su -" in a terminal to get a root shell, an XAUTHORITY file is automatically generated to give display access to GUI programs spawned by that shell, i.e., # set | grep XAUTH XAUTHORITY=/root/.xauthayZmdH That file contains a copy of the MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE from my original X session. On other machines with the same installed OS (CentOS 6.6) that does not happen. What the heck is the difference? I have done nothing with my own xauth or xhost to permit or deny this on any of the machines. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.

xfs_quotas, [SOLVED]
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 27 Mar '15

27 Mar '15

Y'all know I've been fighting this, on and off, for months. The last few days, I've done a *lot* of googling, and finally got a clue in a reply in a thread I found, where someone noted that you CANNOT enable things like pquotas on an XFS filesystem with mount -o remount, you *MUST* umount it, then mount it. In spite of mount showing the quota for the filesystem, it never worked. I turned down NFS, umounted the filesystem, mounted it - I'd had the pquota as one of the options in fstab for weeks - and *poof*, I could add hard and soft pquotas with no errors. Nasty gotcha. Side note: yesterday, I was getting so frustrated that I ran strace xfs_quota..., and found this interesting tidbit: it was looking for some message files, libc.mo and xfsprogs.mo. And they don't exist in /usr/share/locale/en_US. libc.mo is in /usr/share/local/en_GB. And it's in most of the other languages, but not US English. Then, the xfsprogs.mo *only* exist in Polish and German support, and nowhere else. Gotta file a bug report, there. Hope this helps others trying to implement quotas. mark

Not getting updates?
by Mark Haney 27 Mar '15

27 Mar '15

I installed CentOS 7 late last year to use as my Nagios/Cacti Monitoring server. Clean install, nothing real complicated just the server version with no GUI, just command line/SSH. I have noticed over the last 3 months that I've not had ANY updates when I run 'yum update'. I have run 'yum clean all' to see if that might be a problem, and I've made sure the updates repo is enabled (it is), but I'm getting no CentOS updates. Did something change that I'm not aware of? I'm even clueless how to being debugging this. I'm no noob to RPM based systems as I run Fedora pretty much everywhere else. Ideas? -- Mark Haney Sr. Systems Engineer, VIF International Education mark.haney(a)vifprogram.com 919-265-5006

kmod-fglrx not available on CentOS 7?
by Niki Kovacs 27 Mar '15

Hi, The subject says it all. I'm currently busy installing a CentOS 7 based desktop on a client's machine, an HP Compaq with an ATI video card. # lspci | grep -i vga 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS780C [Radeon 3100] I wanted to give the proprietary video driver a spin, so I configured ELRepo, but curiously enough, there seems to be no kmod-fglrx driver available. Why is that so?

snmpwalk Mixed Fail
by Peter Brady 26 Mar '15

26 Mar '15

Hi All, I have a C6 (latest patches) physical machine that I use for network and server monitoring, predominantly over SNMP. It is on VLAN80. My network management interfaces on the switches are on VLAN50 with routing between the VLANs. I recently changed the router to a CISCO ASA 5505 (reasonably recent IOS version, certainly post HeartBleed), with the management interface on a higher security level and added appropriate ACLs and firewall rules to access VLAN50. I promptly lost SNMP contact with roughly half the switches on VLAN50. ICMP, http/s, ssh etc are still working across the router. Its just SNMP and only to a subset of devices that is the problem. FWITW the switches I've lost contact with are Netgear Layer 2 and 3 managed switches, not that brand should make a difference. Some other Netgear WAPs are fine and all CISCO devices are fine. With a machine on the same VLAN all is happy. I've tried the obvious on the C6 box: iptables, routing tables, SELinux. No luck. Tried snmpwalk with DNS and IP address, no luck. The generic response is: snmpwalk -v1 -c YYYY XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX Timeout: No Response from XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX with an exit code of 1. I've got a MacOSX box running Yosemite on the same VLAN80 with the same rules in the ASA, which works perfectly. They both share the same ASA rule set, which leads me to suspect that the ASA is not at fault - but can't be 100% certain. Also on the ASA logs I can see the incoming connections being accepted and opened through. I'm not running any SNMP packet inspection on the ASA. I noticed that the snmp versions between C6 (5.5) and OSX 10.10 (5.7) were different, so have tried a C7 VM (5.7). Still no luck. A second OSX box on a third VLAN, with a different ASA ruleset also works. A third physical C6 box on a fourth VLAN also shows the same symptoms: can ping, ssh etc but no SNMP. Given the above symptoms, I'm leaning to a CentOS/RHEL problem because the OSX boxes work fine. I can't definitively rule out the ASA being the cause of this though. This one's got me stumped so any suggestions would be gratefully accepted. Thanks in advance, -pete -- Peter Brady Email: pdbrady(a)ans.com.au Skype: pbrady77

Proper check of openssl usage in processes?
by Rafał Radecki 26 Mar '15

26 Mar '15

Hi All :) I need to check and possibly update openssl on my fleet of servers. I would like to avoid reboot if possible. I think that I can: - update openssl version with yum - check all daemon processes which are constantly running in the os, for example for sshd something like ldd `which sshd` | awk '/\// { print $3 }' | grep crypto | xargs strings | grep -i openssl to verify if the old openssl version is still used - if it is still used (I think that without a process restart the old version will be used) I will perform restart of the process Can this kind of check be done in some other way? BR, Rafal.

Upgraded Firefox due to today's security announcement. Closed Firefox and restarted but after about 20 seconds, Firefox stopped trying to start. No error messages displayed. Firefox would not start in safe mode.

If you're using a drive 2TB or smaller, and an MBR, rather than a GPT, you can *only* have four primary partitions. To make more, one of those must be an extended partition, and you can create additional partitions in that. One question: why do you need so many? mark

xfs_quota problem
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

I brought this up a month or so ago, and am just back to it: I've got a large RAID filesystem, mounted in one location, /<mntpt>/x/workspace, but we're having project directories that are under that magically appear under /workspace, as /workspace/projname1.... I need to set up xfs quotas by project, and I can't seem to find the right syntax. CentOS 6. Note that it's *project* quotas, which according to the docs and man pages do not need to be a filesystem. Too much googling, with high a noise to signal ratio. mark

CentOS 6.x desktop specs: minimum requirements
by Niki Kovacs 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Hi, I often have to deal with relatively obsolete hardware in schools, public libraries, small town halls, etc. I still have a handful of CentOS 5.x installations around for these, but I wonder what CentOS 6.x desktop specs are, e. g. the minimum requirements (in terms of CPU and RAM) to reasonably run it. Will a battered first-generation P-IV with 512 MB RAM be sufficient? How much RAM does 6.x's graphical installer require to even start? Or is it better to opt for CentOS 5.x on this sort of dinosaur?

RHEL/CentOS bugfixing policy for LibreOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird?
by Niki Kovacs 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Hi, RHEL/CentOS releases 5.x, 6.x and 7.x are all shipping reasonably recent versions of Firefox ESR, Thunderbird ESR and LibreOffice. Until recently I've been using Slackware Linux as a base system for client's desktops and workstations. Since my primary aim is reliability, I always tried to opt for the most stable releases, so for example I'd rather go for LibreOffice 4.2.8 than 4.3.1. A question just crossed my mind: does RHEL include software like LibreOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird "as is" from upstream, or is there some RHEL-specific quality control and bugfixing for this kind of software?

can't do a yum install of apache C7

Hey all, I'm logged into a CentOS 7 box and trying to install apache. Not having any luck, as it's not being found.

AWOL rpm
by Ali Corbin 24 Mar '15

24 Mar '15

About a month ago I did an upgrade of glibc on one of our test centos5 systems. And yum happily gave me about 8 packages, including both bitted-nesses of glibc-common. This morning I was showing a co-worker how to upgrade glibc. And he found that yum wouldn't give him glibc-common-2.5-123.el5_11.1.i386.rpm. So I browsed to the web interface of one of the centos5 mirrors, and couldn't find it either. Not in the x86_64 tree anyway. Did that package disappear on purpose?

xfs fsck error metadata corruption
by Stephen Drotar 24 Mar '15

24 Mar '15

Hi, Everytime I restart Centos 7 I receive a error saying… metadata is corrupt and then I need to go through the process of mount and unmount the disk uuid then run xfs_repair {some uuid} or xfs_repair -L {some uuid} which ultimately corrupts even more. I’m running on a RAID 1 two identical drives this has happened more then once and had to reinstall. Any way I can prevent this when I shutdown or restart? This happens when I reboot the machine. Does the HD need to be completely zero wiped if I do a fresh install? Best, Steve

FYI: OpenSSL Patch to Plug Severe Security Holes
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 23 Mar '15

23 Mar '15

Excerpt: The OpenSSL project said it plans to release new versions of its code to fix a number of security weaknesses, including some classified as “high” severity. <...> The patch is likely to set off a mad scramble by security teams at organizations that rely on OpenSSL. That’s because security updates — particularly those added to open-source software like OpenSSL that anyone can view — give cybercriminals a road map toward finding out where the fixed vulnerabilities lie and insight into how to exploit those flaws. Indeed, while the OpenSSL project plans to issue the updates on Thursday, Mar. 19, the organization isn’t pre-releasing any details about the fixes. Steve Marquess, a founding partner at the OpenSSL Software Foundation, said that information will only be shared in advance with the major operating system vendors. “We’d like to let everyone know so they can be prepared and so forth, but we have been slowly driven to a pretty brutal policy of no [advance] disclosure,” Marquess said. “One of our main revenue sources is support contracts, and we don’t even give them advance notice.” --- end excerpt --- <http://krebsonsecurity.com/2015/03/openssl-patch-to-plug-severe-security-ho…> mark

error building apr-util spec file
by Tim Dunphy 23 Mar '15

23 Mar '15

Hey guys, I'm trying to create an apache 2.4.12 rpm file. But in order to do that I need to create an apr-util rpm of a recent enough version to support it. So running the rpmbuild command against the spec file I'm getting this error: checking db1/db.h usability... no checking db1/db.h presence... no checking for db1/db.h... no checking db.h usability... no checking db.h presence... no checking for db.h... no checking for Berkeley DB 1 in the standard places... checking db_185.h usability... no checking db_185.h presence... no checking for db_185.h... no *checking for Berkeley DB... not found* *configure: error: Berkeley DB not found.* error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.yh0jGv (%build) It's claiming that Berkeley DB isn't installed. But to me it looks like I have the right libraries: [root@repo:~] #rpm -qa | grep db4 libdb4-utils-4.8.30-13.el7.x86_64 libdb4-devel-static-4.8.30-13.el7.x86_64 libdb4-4.8.30-13.el7.x86_64 libdb4-devel-4.8.30-13.el7.x86_64 This is the part of the spec file that calls for db4: %configure --with-apr=%{_prefix} \ --includedir=%{_includedir}/apr-%{apuver} \ --with-ldap --without-gdbm \ --with-sqlite3 --with-pgsql --with-mysql --with-freetds --with-odbc \ --with-berkeley-db \ --with-crypto --with-openssl --with-nss \ --without-sqlite2 So my questions for today are, do I need to provide a path to the --with-berkeley-db flag? If so, how do I determine the path to give it? Lastly, is db4 really necessary to the build of apr-util? Would it be completely wrong just to build the rpm without it?

Firewalld IP in multiple zones
by Tim 21 Mar '15

21 Mar '15

Hi, I would like to know what will happen when I add 192.168.3.0/24 to trusted zone, but 192.168.3.1/32 to public zone. 192.168.3.1 is the gateway and should not have access to other services in that network. However, will it be blocked or trusted to access services which are allowed in the trusted zone? What's firewalld's rule? Deny before allow? Thanks in advance Tim

How does Linux choose ARP request source IP?
by Chris Adams 21 Mar '15

21 Mar '15

I'm looking into some network "weirdness", and I noticed that a CentOS 6 system with multiple IP addresses (load balancer running keepalived) is sending ARP requests from apparently random source IPs. I would have thought that ARP requests would always come from the interface's "primary" IP (especially since keepalived adds all the virtual IPs with a /32 mask). This is probably not related to my problem, but I just thought it was odd. Is there a way to control this? -- Chris Adams <linux(a)cmadams.net>

Also as I indicated in an early message in this thread, if you look at /etc/inittab, where one used to set the runlevel, you will see the details of how to do this on a C7 machine. Mark's wiki reference included the correct information too.

I am just providing this information in case someone else does something similar. The situation is this. I have a KVM guest that I keep as a clone template. It has one virtio disk of 32GB that is configured as an LVM partition with several lvs. I cloned this system to create an off-site backup host for our fax server. The archives of which exceeds 32GB by some margin. My requirement therefore was to create the necessary additional storage (2 x 32Gb virtio disks) and attach them to the cloned system. Initially this worked as it has in the past. However, I ran into a problem on the new guest when adding a new lv using the space from the new virtual disks that I had added to the volume group defined on the guest. And this is where I made my mistake. Instead of removing the lv first and then removing the virtio disks from the vg I deleted the disks from the guest. This meant that the guest LVM manager was looking for those drives whenever it was rebooted. If the drives that I added back in subsequent trials were not partitioned then they were not found by the lvm manager and the system booted. If the re-added disks were partitioned then the lvm manager found them, but they were not the disks expected. That probably tripped some sort of security or consistency check and that caused the kernel panic. The fix was to boot the system without the added disks. Then login and run the lvm utilities to remove the dangling lv, also remove the missing pvs from the vg, and then shutdown. Once this was done adding new partitioned virtio disks to the guest proceeded as expected and the problem disappeared from the next boot. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
