CentOS 6.4, TigerVNC, and always-on feature
by Mark Holloway 29 Mar '13

29 Mar '13

I just finished a fresh install of CentOS 6.4 and successfully configured Tiger VNC. I can now VNC to the server. In previous version of CentOS 5.x, I could modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf so that when I VNC to the server I am seeing the same desktop as someone who is sitting in front of the machine (ie. their session, all open windows, etc.). The tutorial for creating this "always on" type of VNC connection is here --> http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server#head-7e0dadd72b0ddd9c84381b053b440… The tutorial says to modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf but this file no longer exists in CentOS 6.4. Is there another way to configure VNC for "always on"? Thanks, Mark

CentOS Dojo at Antwerp on the 8th Apr 2013
by Karanbir Singh 29 Mar '13

29 Mar '13

hi guys, I just want to drop in a quick note about the first ever CentOS Dojo that is taking place in Antwerp on the 8th April - if you are in the area, or can get there - I highly recommend you come along. Its going to be a great day, with lots of face to face tech conversations and user stories on and around real world challenges on CentOS. http://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Antwerp2013 has the lineup of people doing the sessions; Plus we have sponsored Lunch and maybe a few beers at the end, along with lots of socialising and networking opportunities during the day. In addition to the lineup, we also have an open CentOS forum that runs for an hour, where anyone can ask any question about the CentOS project, its past, its present and where we are heading - and any concern that people might have about the project. We will also have open spaces, where people can get up, do a quick ignite like 5 min talk about pretty much anything ( we just ask that everyone imagine their grand mother is also watching, so keep content sanity in mind ). The sessions run like Dojo sessions, so they are not like talks at a conference, this is a lot more user interactive and driven around the CentOS mindset - so no one is trying to sell you anything or make their toys look better than someone elses. There are only a few tickets left, so register soon! http://centosdojoantwerp2013.eventbrite.com/ Note: For all you US side people, hang tight - we have something coming you way soon as well.

yum configuration
by Andreas K. 29 Mar '13

29 Mar '13

As it stands now (or at least that is what I think) when CentOS moves from one minor version to another (6.3 to 6.4) the 6.3 version machines automatically pick up the upgrade and the next time you do yum upgrade all of the upgrades are applied. This happens because in the repo configs (in our case) we have baseurl=ftp://yum.xx.xx.xx.xx/pub/linux/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ Is there a way to force a 6.3 machine to remain at 6.3 until a human being decides that is is time to do so? thanx

Computer doesn't boot with new 6.4 kernel
by Markus Lindholm 29 Mar '13

29 Mar '13

Yesterday a upgraded a machine that I have from Centos 6.3 to 6.4, but it doesn't boot with the new kernel (2.6.32-358). Right after grub the screen shows a distorted image, a bit like war of the ants but static, and nothing more happens. With the old kernel (2.6.32-279) it boots fine. The motherboard is a Asus E45M1-M Pro. There's no separate graphics card, but I use the one on the motherboard, a AMD Radeon HD 6320. Should I file bug report or is there something else to try? /Markus

a-gnome-oyences
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 28 Mar '13

28 Mar '13

Most of my users are on kde, as am I (I really don't like gnome). I've got one on gnome, though, CentOS 6.4, and I have a problem: I have to start an agent running ->on login<-, so that the same one is in the environment of every term window he opens. In kde, no problem, I modify /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc-common so that code in there calls our (newer) ssh-agent instead of the stock one. (And, of course, it's killed on logout, and there's only one running, not one every time that never go away unless killed manually.) /etc/gdm/Xsession *says* that it sources that file, so it should be running when he logs in. I've just had him log out and log back in, <ctl><alt><bkspc>, and no matter what, it just ain't running. So, gnome fans, how do I get that to work? Edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf? Edit something else? gconftool-2 (gahhhh)? mark

silencing Passenger "ps" SELinux errors
by ignasr＠vault13.lt 28 Mar '13

28 Mar '13

Hello, how do people cope with constant SELinux errors like this from Fusion Passenger: 36886. 03/27/2013 14:20:05 ps unconfined_u:system_r:passenger_t:s0 2 file open system_u:system_r:udev_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 denied 1922 36887. 03/27/2013 14:20:05 ps unconfined_u:system_r:passenger_t:s0 4 dir getattr unconfined_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 denied 1927 36888. 03/27/2013 14:20:05 ps unconfined_u:system_r:passenger_t:s0 2 dir search unconfined_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 denied 1928 It happens when Passenger v3 tries to determine memory stats with "ps". There is an Apache directive to turn it of ( http://www.modrails.com/documentation/Users%20guide%20Apache.html#Passenger… ), unfortunately it does not work in community version of Passenger. The cause is always ps running as passenger_t trying to read files in /proc with various types of security context. Thank you, IgnasR

UEFI

Y'know, I was just reading an article about a Spanish Linux group filing a complaint with the EU regulators about UEFI, and I was struck by a thought: why is it that the OEM does not provide the UEFI key with the hardware FOR THAT BOARD AND UEFI, rather than have it provided by M$? Any clues (or should I just assume it's more M$ kickbacks...)? mark

Kernel 2.6.32-358 networking issues...
by John Doe 27 Mar '13

27 Mar '13

Hi, after a long general power failure, I had to power off/on my soon to be 6.4 firewall (updated to 6.4, but not rebooted yet). After the off/on, everything seemed to be fine. But I realized there were some specific/weird heavy slow downs. In one case, the windows clients *uploads* would stall (very slow), while the linux clients had no apparent upload issues... (MTU?). In another case, the openvpn clients could not use the connection at all (way too slowwww). After trying countless of diagnostics/tests, I reinstalled/booted the old kernel 2.6.32-279.22.1 and... everything went back to normal. So, for now, I am stuck with the old kernel... Anyone else bumped into such issues after 6.4? Setup: C6 x86_64 / shorewall+openvpn(udp)... Thx, JD

Softphones for CentOS-6
by James B. Byrne 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

I am presently configuring a test Asterisk 11 server based on CentOS-6 and I need to employ a softphone for testing. The base repo has ekiga. The EPEL repo has twinkle. I lack the knowledge of whether other packages exist or might be better suited. Which of the two do you recommend? Or, alternatively, what other package might be a better choice? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

dumb logrotate conf file question
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Given the apparent addiction fail2ban keeps finding to the existing logfile - not looking at the *new* one once logrotate runs - I was putting a hack into place in /etc/logrotate.d/syslog. Nothing I find is perfectly clear: I want to restart fail2ban *after* the logs are rotated. Do I put the /sbin/service fail2ban restart after endscript, or do I add a lastaction after endscipt, and put it after *that*? mark

LVM filters not working?
by Dennis Jacobfeuerborn 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Hi, I'm trying to set up a redundant DRBD system but I'm running into trouble when I try to define a volume group. The physical backing device for the drbd resource /dev/drbd0 is /dev/vdb1. The problem is that when I do a "pvs" on the command line the physical volume is shown as /dev/vdb1. So I tried the following filter in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf: filter = [ "r|/dev/vdb.*|", "a/.*/" But this doesn't seem to haven any effect at all. The system still sees the volumen group on /dev/vdb1. Also various how-to's on the net say I should pay attention to deleting /etc/lvm/cache/.cache which makes sense but this file is never created. Any ideas what might be going on here? I'm trying all of this on CentOS 6. Regards, Dennis

nscd
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Has anyone had problems accessing random websites since going up to 6.4? Since about the day after I got partly upgraded, if I try to access nytimes.com, or orbitz.com, I get server not found. With a lot of work, I, my manager, and the other admin, found that setting options edns0 in /etc/resolv.conf fixed it - I suspect that the network folks updated their internal nameservers (which are M$) about that time... but... we got this Thurs. Friday, I went to look, lunchtime, at a story, and back to the same. Later, and I think I was playing around, it came back. Just now, over lunch, it failed... until I restarted nscd. My manager tells me it's caching... but it seems to be caching momentary failures. So: has anyone else seen oddness that might be related to nscd? mark

PHP Questions on move from CentOS 5.x to CentOS 6.x
by Max Pyziur 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

Greetings, A malfunctioning disk this past week accelerated a lingering decision to move to CentOS 6.x from CentOS 5.x. Most of our content is functioning and being presented as it should be. However, there appear to be php-related issues. Basic squirrelmail (a php-dependent package) works correctly. However, drupal, and other php-dependent parts that call postgresql and mysql databases of our site are not being presented. Apache's log files show a 503 (for postgresql) and 500 (for mysql) errors I'm troubleshooting this through obvious channels (looking at logfiles, searching google, sdiff'ing configuration files). However, if someone has suggestions or answers, please do speak up! Much thanks, Max Pyziur pyz(a)brama.com

Bonded interfaces - testing
by Dermot 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

Hi, I have 2 servers running CentOS 6.3. Each has four 1gb Ethernet ports. I have bonded all four ports on each server and patched them to the same switch (following the instructions at http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/BondingInterfaces) I have created aggregated trunks for the servers respective ports on the switch. The switch reports that the ports are up and that the Link Aggregation is enabled. I was under the impression, perhaps falsely, that I would see an improvement in the throughput. I am not sure that I am. I used a utility call nuttcp before the trunking and after to test the throughput. I am seeing miniscule differences in the Mbps. I am not sure that I am testing correctly. Perhaps the speed will not change but the available bandwidth has increased. Is there some way to demonstrate that I am able to transfer data from these two servers at a rate of 4,000Mbs? Does anyone have any thoughts? I pasted some details below increase they have a bearing. Thanks in advance Dermot. ./nuttcp otherserver 1125.6573 MB / 10.03 sec = 941.4967 Mbps 10 %TX 47 %RX cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0 Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.6.0 (September 26, 2009) Bonding Mode: IEEE 802.3ad Dynamic link aggregation Transmit Hash Policy: layer2 (0) MII Status: up MII Polling Interval (ms): 100 Up Delay (ms): 0 Down Delay (ms): 0 802.3ad info LACP rate: slow Aggregator selection policy (ad_select): stable Active Aggregator Info: Aggregator ID: 2 Number of ports: 4 Actor Key: 17 Partner Key: 420 Partner Mac Address: 10:0d:7f:4c:16:ca Slave Interface: eth0 MII Status: up Speed: 1000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 2c:76:8a:5d:28:1c Aggregator ID: 2 Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: eth1 MII Status: up Speed: 1000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 2c:76:8a:5d:28:1d Aggregator ID: 2 Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: eth2 MII Status: up Speed: 1000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 2c:76:8a:5d:28:1e Aggregator ID: 2 Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: eth3 MII Status: up Speed: 1000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 2c:76:8a:5d:28:1f Aggregator ID: 2 Slave queue ID: 0

maintaining patches across releases
by Keith Keller 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

Hi all, I have what might be a foolish question about patching packages. I am not sure exactly how to phrase the question, so please follow up if it seems as though I'm not being clear. I was looking at this bug which my machines are currently experiencing: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=883905 The proposed patch is literally one new line in the XFS codebase. So since the patch is so straightforward, I had a crazy idea that I would build my own kernel with this patch, and test it out to see if it worked. (It's been many years since I built my own kernel, so that would be an adventure in and of itself.) My worry would be, I would want to make sure that I propagated this patch every time I updated the kernel package. Is this something others do regularly? If so, is there a standard way of managing the process of applying one's own patches to a series of source packages, and being able to re-patch and rebuild updated packages? I'm guessing that I just need to build xfs.ko. Are there any gotchas beyond the wiki entry on building your own kernel modules? That page seems to target CentOS 5, not 6, but I imagine the process is quite similar. --keith -- kkeller(a)wombat.san-francisco.ca.us

CentOS 6 : Tip for significantly increasing battery life / reducing power consumption (Thinkpad X220 Tablet)
by Mathieu Baudier 24 Mar '13

24 Mar '13

Hello, I was not happy with the power consumption of CentOS 6 x86_64 on a new Lenovo Thinkpad x220 Tablet and I worked on reducing it. I just wanted to share with the list one of the changes which gave me the most significant improvement. As per http://www.williambrownstreet.net/blog/?p=387, add the following kernel arguments to the GRUB boot configuration: pcie_aspm=force i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1 i915.i915_enable_fbc=1 (in /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.conf since I use EFI, /boot/grub/grub.conf otherwise) As measured using PowerTop, this made the power consumption decrease from 20W to 11W ! (I had already decreased it from 25W to 20W with the usual tips of disabling hardware, shutting down services, switching tuned profiles, etc.) All in all, battery time was more than multiplied by two, and the computer is now much more silent since the fan is not always running like mad in order to cool the processor. The bottom of the laptop is not anymore hot as hell. I don't know whether this would have an impact on other hardware, but it may be worth looking at it (even on servers?), since the above link points to descriptions of a regression in the kernel which seems more general. As a side note, the Power Management Guide of Red Hat is a good resource (analysis tools + tuned profiles): http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html-single/Po… Cheers, Mathieu PS: Do you think I should book a bug in the upstream bug tracker?

OK, I managed to install the VM. I did a 'Minumal-Desktop' install and then installed the 300+ additional packages after the 'Minumal-Desktop' completed and the VM rebooted (I used the package list from the 32-bit 'Development-Workstation' install I did earlier). I still don't know why selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-195.el6.noarch caused the install to go off into never-never land... There was no problem doing a 'Development-Workstation' install of the 32-bit version. My *only* guess was the 1gig was not enough RAM for selinux-policy-targeted post-install script with large number of installed packages, but there were no error messages, so I really don't know what was going on. > > My next option is to just treat this like I did for the Ubuntu VMs: do a > *native* install on a scratch disk and then copy it over to the lvm > volume.

Problems with 'iptables'
by Andrey B. Kiselev 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

Hello! Sorry if this question is already asked, but I not finding answer for it... I have server with CentOS 6.4, later it will be router for home network. When I tried tune iptables I have error: [root@gateway sysconfig]# iptables -t NAT -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE iptables v1.4.7: can't initialize iptables table `NAT': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. iptables 1.4.7 (latest version), custom kernel 3.8.3. from kernel.org (too latest version) How to fix this error, it's desirable without rebuild kernel?

updating to 6.4 broke olvwm/openwin
by Miranda Hawarden-Ogata 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

This morning a handful of workstations got upgraded from 6.3 to 6.4 and things seemed to be functional, until we tried to log in to one of our instrument accounts that for various reasons uses olvwm/openwin as the desktop (and no, I don't have the option of changing that at this time). The desktop appears to load correctly, and mouse-focus and clicking appears to work, but the .openwin-menu entries no longer function other than clicking "exit" to log out of the session. I've tried reinstalling xview and xview-client rpms, but that doesn't resolve it. I don't think it's an issue with the user account, as the underlying commands work when I su and execute them in an xterm. I was also able to reproduce the problem on three separate computers. I don't usually have to deal with these desktop issues so I'm hella rusty when it comes to debugging them. Does anyone have any tidbits to point me in the right direction to fix this? (Hopefully soon, since we are supposed to use this account for observations tonight) -- Thanks! Miranda

Hi, I have a server with 2 disks. Installed centos 5.9 with raid1. I created /dev/md0 to hold "/" and /dev/md1 for swap and nothing else. Grub is installed on /dev/md0. After the successful installation, the server does not boot. I don't see the boot loader . I see a blank cursor blinking. What have I done wrong? Thanks Paras.

Memcache timeouts?
by Rafał Radecki 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

Hi All. I am currently using memcache daemon in version 1.4.15 on one of my servers. The second one is executing php scripts which use mentioned memcache daemon (php53-pecl-memcache-2.2.5). Memcache server: CentOS release 6.3 (Final) 2.6.32-279.5.2.el6.centos.plus.x86_64 uptime 184 days PHP server: CentOS release 6.3 (Final) 2.6.32-279.19.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64 uptime 43 days The memcache server gets about: - 250Mb/s traffic - 4500 connections/s On PHP server I get sometimes timeouts, ~20-30 daily. Both servers are not swapping, they have free memory, cpu is ~40% used max. But I have found some errors in netstat -s: Memcache server: TCP 7251 failed connection attempts (incrementing) 56447 connection resets received (incrementing) TcpExt 36 packets pruned from receive queue because of socket buffer overrun (not incrementing) 2820 packets collapsed in receive queue due to low socket buffer (not incrementing) 459479 connections reset due to unexpected data (incrementing) PHP server: TCP 540 failed connection attempts (incrementing) 381066 connection resets received (incrementing) TcpExt 7194 packets pruned from receive queue because of socket buffer overrun (incrementing) 250104 packets collapsed in receive queue due to low socket buffer (incrementing) 2447931 connections reset due to unexpected data (incrementing) I have tuned tcp/ip a bit: net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout = 5 net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1 net.core.somaxconn = 1024 net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog = 4196 net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 4196 net.ipv4.tcp_sack = 0 net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 8192 65534 net.core.rmem_max = 8388608 net.core.wmem_max = 8388608 net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 65536 8388608 net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 65536 8388608 and set txqueuelen for interfaces (1Gb/s) to 5000. but where to look next? May it be so that the php client version is buggy? Any other tips? Best regards, Rafal.

CentOS 6.x
by Kaushal Shriyan 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

Hi Please help me understand to choose between the two versions CentOS 6.3 and CentOS 6.4. I am not sure to choose 6.4 since it is being released recently( http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2013-March/019276.html) and it may be risky to push it in Live environment. Regards, Kaushal

Ctrl-Alt-F? bindings broken under xen 3.0.3-142.el5_9.1 / 2.6.18-348.1.1.el5xen?
by Robert Heller 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

I am not sure what I did, but for some reason Ctrl-Alt-F? bindings are broken on 64-bit xen desktop machine (but not on my laptop (32-bit, no xen)). Both machines are (mostly) up-to-date and running CentOS 5.9. I rarely hop to different Virtual Consoles (eg Ctrl-Alt-F1 ... Ctrl-Alt-F7), but today I wanted to go to the main console to watch some kernel verbage (I was checking something with hot-swap SATA disk). I discovered that I could not switch back to my X11 session (Ctrl-Alt-F7)! I did some googling, but did not find anything. So far as I can tell, I can switch to one of the other VT (Ctrl-Alt-Fn) *from* VT7 (my X11 session), but cannot then switch to any other VT from there, using the Ctrl-Alt-F? key bindings. The chvt command works, but the keybindings don't. It is most strange. I know this used to work (and still does work just fine on my laptop, running much the same system, including the same X11 configuration, with the same desktop setup (plain fvwm in MWM compatibity mode, same keybindings, etc.). Other than different video cards (and thus different X11 drivers) and 32-bit vs 64-bit and with xen virtualization on the 64-bit desktop box, the system setups are virtually identical. -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 / heller(a)deepsoft.com Deepwoods Software -- http://www.deepsoft.com/ () ascii ribbon campaign -- against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org -- against proprietary attachments

CentOS 6.4 x86_64 VM Install freezes
by Robert Heller 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

I am trying to install a CentOS 6.4 x86_64 VM using a CentOS 5.9 x86_64 host, but its install has froze *twice*. What I am doing is to create a 10gig LVM volume, which I put a MS-DOS partition table on (using fdisk). I then format the only partition to ext3, install grub and install the pxeboot kernel and initrd.img and a simple grub.conf to load this. I have the CentOS 6.4 x86_64 ISOs mounted (via loop) and exported as NFS file systems: /distrocds/CentOS/6.4/CentOS-6.4-i386-bin-DVD1.iso 3.6G 3.6G 0 100% /centos64i386/1 /distrocds/CentOS/6.4/CentOS-6.4-i386-bin-DVD2.iso 1.1G 1.1G 0 100% /centos64i386/2 /distrocds/CentOS/6.4/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso 4.1G 4.1G 0 100% /centos64x86_64/1 /distrocds/CentOS/6.4/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-bin-DVD2.iso 1.4G 1.4G 0 100% /centos64x86_64/2 sauron.deepsoft.com% sudo exportfs /centos64x86_64/1 192.168.250.0/255.255.255.0 /centos64x86_64/2 192.168.250.0/255.255.255.0 /centos64i386/1 192.168.250.0/255.255.255.0 /centos64i386/2 192.168.250.0/255.255.255.0 I am able to boot up the installer and have it NFS mount the first DVD and things go fine util it installs selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-195.el6.noarch. The VM is busy for a while, then the CPU usage goes to zero and it just sits there. What am I doing wrong? This worked just fine with the 32-bit version of CentOS 6.4. Is it because some package from the second disk is needed? Do I have to create a merged version of the DVDs? Or is something else wrong? Screenshot available here: http://www.deepsoft.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/FrozenInstallx86_64.png And the VM's defination is here: http://www.deepsoft.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/c664guest.xml -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 / heller(a)deepsoft.com Deepwoods Software -- http://www.deepsoft.com/ () ascii ribbon campaign -- against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org -- against proprietary attachments

dhcpd options
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

A few weeks ago, suddenly, reading news at lunch, I could not get to nytimes.com. I could ping it, and nslookup it, and if I put the IP address in place of the name, it was fine. After *much* back and forth over a ticket I put in, over the last week or so, our group figured it out: It *seemed* to be related to IPv6, and there's only *some* few sites, such as the Times, and Orbits, and one or two others I found, while, say, the Washington Post, or Huffpo, etc, were fine; and I could make it work by putting IPV6INIT="no" in ifcfg-eth0 and restarting the network, but another admin got it nailed, we *think*: apparently the M$-based DNS resolver's sending back extended DNS packets, and we gag. tcpdump saw us asking for an A record, then an AAAA record, then using search.... But putting the *very* counterintuitive option edns0 in /etc/resolv.conf, it works instantly, no caching, no nuthin'. Taking that out breaks it again. My question: it *appears* that we could add option edns0 to dhcpd.conf on the server, and it would fix it for everyone on our subnet. Have I misunderstood what I'm reading in the manpages? mark

Is it fine to upgrade to Centos 6 rpms, being at centos 5.8
by Anumeha Prasad 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Hi, I'm currently at CentOS 5.8. After some penetration testing, found some high severity OpenSSH issues which would require its upgrade. But till CentOS 5.9 the latest rpm available is openssh-4.3p2-82.el5 (which I'm currently using). Is it fine to upgrade to CentOS 6 rpms while I'm on CentOS 5? Thanks, Anumeha

GFS2 hangs after one node going down
by Maurizio Giungato 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Hi guys, my goal is to create a reliable virtualization environment using CentOS 6.4 and KVM, I've three nodes and a clustered GFS2. The enviroment is up and working, but I'm worry for the reliability, if I turn the network interface down on one node to simulate a crash (for example on the node "node6.blade"): 1) GFS2 hangs (processes go in D state) until node6.blade get fenced 2) not only node6.blade get fenced, but also node5.blade! Help me to save my last neurons! Thanks Maurizio

posfix admin issue
by Austin Einter 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Dear All I had successfully installed posfixadmin. I was able to login to postfix admin and create email ids etc. In something broken (not sure which one caused the issue), I am experiencing below problem with postfix admin. 1. I am able to access domain/mailadmin page. 2. I can create admin accounts at domain/mailadmin/setup.php 3. I can see the admin login page by access But when I enter my admin mailid, and password (i am 100% sure these are correct), it goes to a page domain/login.php and then says "Page not found". My question is why it is redirecting wrongly to domain/login.php. Kindly help me. Please note that I have all other things working like amavisd, dovecot etc, I am able to send recv mails for accounts that I created previously. Regards Austin

Adding third party driver at installation time.
by satish kondapalli 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Hi, I have a PCIe storage device. My driver registers this device as a block device in linux. My block device is working fine under linux. Following are the steps which I used for Centos installation on my storage device: 1) During Centos installation time and before scanning of my storage device, I loaded the driver from command line(By pressing Ctrl + Alt + F2) from USB disk. 2) Post loading of drivers, the installation proceeded successfully on my storage device. Query: 1) How to add my driver as part of installed initrd image at the installation time itself.[because root file system also installed on same device] Waiting for positive reply Thanks & Regards, Sateesh

2 questions re UPS management
by Fred Smith 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Hi, trying to figure out how the system manages UPS connections. On both Centos 5.9 and 6.4, merely plugging in a USB UPS device causes an icon to appear in the top panel, and (at least on 5.9, haven't yet tested this in 6.4) when the UPS suffers a power failure the system notices and after a bit does a clean shutdown. All this without installing ANYTHING extra. one of the UPSes I'm using is a tripplite (now on 6.4 x86_64, but formerly on the same machine with 5.9 i686), the other is a CyberPower UPS on a different 5.9 machine. question #1: in 5.9 there are two entries in /etc/inittab, one for power fail and the other for power restoration. The default setting for the powerfail entry has it doing a shutdown in 2 minutes. So, I need to tweak it a bit: that UPS powers two computers, the Centos 5.9 box and a Windows XP box. A little googling showed me how to use Samba tools to tell XP to do a shutdown. That works fine. but if I add the command for that into the inittab entry I get an error message (when power fails) about the line being too long. So, I created a shellscript that runs both the command to tell XP to go down, followed by the shutdown command that tells Centos to shut down. I changed the two minute time to 5 minutes to make sure Windoze is all the way down even if it's busy. When I run this script from the commandline it works just fine. but when I turn off input power to the UPS it starts the XP shutdown then within without waiting the specified length of time, initiates the shutdown of Linux. Once the shutdown is done, the UPS powers off, thereby killing the not-yet-shutdown windoze box. #!/bin/sh # # invoked by the poweroff clause in /etc/inittab instead of the command # originally in that place. This one also shuts down the Windoze box. net rpc SHUTDOWN -C "System shutting down NOW due to power failure" -f -I 172.19.23.120 -U <myusername>%<mypassword> /sbin/shutdown -f -h +5 "Power Failure; System Shutting Down" and here's the entry from inittab: pf::powerfail:/etc/powerfail The shellscript does contain "#!/bin/sh" as its first line, but it is currently being invoked simply by the path to the script. when I get back to the office I'll try changing it to "/bin/bash /etc/powerfail" to see if that makes a difference, but I kinda don't expect it to. So, I'm wondering how the underlying mechanism works, AND if anyone knows how (or even IF) it's possible to hand inittab a script to run instead of burying the necessary commands directly into the inittab entry. Question #2: On the Centos 6.4 box at home, I haven't yet tried turning off power to the UPS to see if it actually shuts doown, but given that a UPS icon appears in the panel, and there are settings for what should happen when power fails, I expect it will. The question here is: how does this magic all work? We no longer have any entries in inittab to manage this, apparently we now use upstart to manage the same things, and I've spent some time digging for man pages and looking around for upstart file(s) to find out how such events are handled, and so far I've not found anything specifically for a "powerfail" event. Clues appreciated, thanks all!

boot problem on Desktop edition 6.4
by Mustafa DEMiRCi 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Hi dear friends for three days . I have a problem . Shortly I have Hp elitebook with Centos 6 nearly more than one year without any problem When last update for kernel 2.6.32-358.2.1.el6.x86_64 was realeased. I did not restart machine. After 3 days I started machine and I got a error message of getaddrinfo() problem of solving host name. And there is showed of bugs.centos.org. I reconfig /etc/hosts and restart machine after startin libvirtd (OK) There is nothing. I can't see my gnome desktop (Maybe this was a problem of another update which was same time with 2.6.32-358.2.1.el6.x86_64 ) Some googling and looking some forums I saw another people like me They have same problems. I reinstall kernel and tried alternatives/java but couldn't solve problem. yum reinstall \* did not solved my problem . After starting libvirtd(OK) . There is nothing . Maybe this is coming from my Nvidia card ? Have you any ideas ? Regards. Mustafa Demirci
